CAC1231 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I’m going with the Bears, 42-14 42-7 something in that neighborhood. I hope both teams make it out injury free to make a solid run at the playoffs. See y’all Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of kids are getting more involved now that they see what a program can do when you work hard. So a lot of kids jumped on the band wagon for the last couple of years because you finally have a good team. And they should. But they should of been when they couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag. When Joaquin was terrible in the 90's we were still supporting our kids and school. I remember when coach Gandy was here and Joaquin was 8@0 And Timpson was 8@0 we met in week 9 and y'all brought a ton of fans and we beat y'all about 60 to 0 like y'all did us last year. Then everyone jumped off the band wagon. If y'all do drop off after this year I hope all your fans continue to support you. But I hope y'all don't drop completely off the radar. Every school and every kid playing sports for that school deserves the support of their fans and parents, during the good and bad times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have lost several starters to injuries and our kicker because he quit. But it's next man up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be totally honest they fall pretty close to Timpson historically. Tenaha, Garrison and San Augustine have better resumes. You may be right, Timpson may completely fall off after this year, but we’ll have to wait and see. I went through this with a Joaquin homer last year, so I did a little research and learned that when you measure playoff records, ole Joe didn’t stack up much better than Timpson. If you think I’m full of it, I’ll gladly take the time to repost everything from last year and you can decide for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate the four team format This is true, but of Joaquin’s 16 playoff appearances in this century, only one had them seeded lower than a 2 (3rd place behind Tenaha and Mt Enterprise in 2008). On the other 15, they were seeded 2nd 11 times and 1st 4 times. So, if we were still on the 2 qualifier format, Joaquin would have 14 playoff appearances in 21 years. Timpson has spent quite a bit more of that same time span competing in what is now Class AAA D2, so the comparison is somewhat skewed. However, they’ve also spent 4 years in what is now Class AA D2, and made the playoffs all of those years. I’m not sure any of this matters Friday night.

Prior to the Gandy era, Joaquin had five playoff appearances since starting a football program in 1923. (1958, ‘59, ‘84, ‘89, ‘90). We had several years in the 80s where we missed the playoffs with a winning record due to finishing third in a district with EF and Tatum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they’ve tried that tactic 6 times and it’s went 10yds only once.... not popular with this fan for sure....but then again I’m just an armchair guy and don’t get paid so my opinion doesn’t matter in the scope of reality.

EdgarAllenPwn Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Came here specifically looking for a monumental Joaquin Vs Alllto type of thread but there are probably less than 5 true Timpson Bears fans in all of Shelby county. You watch, any sign of trouble and the entire coaching staff will be fired for zero reason. Everyone above the age of 40 in that town are allergic to long term success. I hope Timpson wins for the sake of all those coaches’ jobs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that what I was saying was you have more kids coming out for sports now than when y'all were down. And like I was saying about when we were both 8@0 y'all had a lot of posting on smoaky leading up to our game and a lot of supporters then the day after the game is was like a ghost town on smoaky. It just seemed Timpson supporters vanished. And I blamed not the kids but the adults. Seemed like they didn't have time to go on smoaky and give support to the athelets. In my opinion the kids deserve their complete support. And it doesn't matter if they win every game by 50 or lose every game by 50. Because I can guarantee they do it for their school and their community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
