PIRATE87

Again let Greenback and Coalbucket take care of each other - they have a war when they play each other , so maybe just maybe they beat each other up bad enough then hopefully a weak SP or Whitwell can garner enough enthusiasm to pick at the bones lol.

Hoping for a tough game that last four Qtrs's either way I vote keep the starters in for 4 qtrs lol

GB is my pick also.

Agree 100% with both statements - bad for both sides and the 4th and 2 - I think ref on the sideline marking the ball had a lazy eye

So we get to see the big red machine again and at the Pitt on top of that. Interesting

So you think we get Monterrey and The big red machine?

Agree but I think the difference is you word it as if you believe their best was seen Friday night , hang it up after the QTRFINAL- I think with Vic and Peak doing some fine tuning, (conditioning/ making sure they are ready for 4qtr's lol) and clean up- the gap in the score for the upcoming rematch will be what it should have been Friday night and yes we would be the underdog in the semifinal but I like our chances at that point. The passing game has got to come together but I think executing correctly the run stacking 8 in the box or not it may be low scoring but just like UC and WC proved you can win if You have a defense who can make some stops. We got block and tackle and be able to play with limited mistakes , 4 good quarters with out running out of steam.

One can "if" this thing to death - bottom line is Whitwell is not the Whitwell of old just showing up to compete. They showed up last night with leaving with a win on their mind and I look for nothing less in the next meeting- I for one am happy about that - I wished every team every week SP played took them to the 4 th quarter. I don't like watching a blow out on either side. Last night put things in perspective. Vic has to get those boys conditioned for 4 qtrs no excuses/ they looked tired in q3 and q4 just as he said in the article. I for one think that was a big difference maker for Whitwells success in those two quarters. lol I think Vic addresses that and I think we see a difference come quarterfinals. So go ahead now and let's get the "he has no class cause he didn't pull the starters " conversation going because I'm sure from here on out they will stay in needed or not! To Ambassador : Let your new idols Greenback and Coalfield worry about each other and beat up on each other and try to destroy each other lol- There's a few games to play between now and then. If Greenback starts winning and Coalbucket knows their season is ended one better lookout lol we know from experience how that shakes out. So I'm pulling for Greenback lol

They struggled where to place the football all night

Grider said in Hargis's article what we all seen- "Pirates looked tired in qtr 3 and 4". He also said in a politically correct way they will address that lol. I still believe the best is yet to come from this team. If they clean up the mistakes and execute this game would have been put away.

Does this group get on coacht? or is it going to be a boring week?

+100

Not taking anything away from the Tigers they are a good team played hard to the final whistIe- I don't normally disagree with you PowerP but SP stopped SP several times. I hope to see Whitwell 3Rd round I still believe SP wins by 21 at least - They will work out those mistakes and have film to prepare with. No excuses it was a one score game tonight- as one fellow said SP were a couple mistakes away from winning by three scores and a mistake away from losing tonight!

SP left scores on the table - really proud of those young men! Congrats to both teams - I said it would be four full qtrs! Can you say wow what a crowd! Round 2 is coming -

I bet you shocked him in his red jock strap lol And the QB who is coming back from suspension - didn't he come back from McCallie?

You Whitwell fans should really try to get there early - if not those Jasper fans gonna take up all the seats - you think I'm joking but I ain't! one can only hope this goes down to the wire - if it gets ugly for either team, it will suck royally knowing they get to do it all over again in a few weeks.

Anyone have video or can do a clip of the game last week on the kick returns from SP opponents last week?

How about the big motorcycle escort their planning? Do they know about the welcoming committee?

Where can we see video of last week?

Where do you see Pirate Fans posting that? This one will be 4 full qtrs, if a starter hasn't played for either team in all four quarters yet they BETTER BUCKLE UP because they will Fiday night! ALTHOUGH Not much film out there on the Tigers so it's hard to tell what they look like in QTR 4- you got any ? My message to both teams is keep your seat buckle fastened until the ride comes to a complete stop! Friday night will be fun to watch!

Looking forward to Friday night and a game that keeps the starters in 4 full QTR's. Where are the Whitwell fans?

Did Dresden graduate a lot from last season?

OB it may have been discussed earlier so my apologies . but you guys had a good team last season and sounds like you are headed for another shot representing the east. What key players did you guys lose from last year and who returns? Any standout newbies filling the shoes of a key position for someone who graduated ? Good luck tonight!
