Dear Clyde.....
Congrats on your victory over the Sweetwater Mustangs Friday night.
Your team played very well, and more importantly, with alot of class. I think we all knew going in that this game was going to be a war, and it was.
I would like to point out that in your game with Wylie, you got robbed one that one call where the Wylie player fumbled before going into the end zone..That should not have been a touchdown.
But guess what? Football karma has a way of returning the favor. Now please don't think we are taking anything away from your victory, but watch this clip, and you decide if this was a mistake called by the officials that gave Clyde the ball, and consequesntly, the go ahead touchdown.
Thanks mucho to Kevin Wright for the great video.
Hopefully, we will get to see ya'll again in the playoffs. Perhaps then, the football karma will be on our side then.

51 Steps
51 Steps
Underneath a sea of flags
a thosand memories live
In the hearts of every son
Who once his all did give
Beginning as a skinny kid
Who dreamed of wearing red
longing to descend the steps
His heroes all have tread
Believing in the power within
to earn his lofty goal
to see a playoff banner waving
High above The Bowl
Tremendous cost he gladly pays
In blood and sweat and tears
Knowing that the dividend
Will last throughout the years
Never running from defeat
but facing it head on
Determined to become not weak
But rather be made strong
And when he climbs all 51
Red Steps one final time
He'll know down deep inside his heart
He laid it on the line
Because, you see, the truth is this
it's more than just a game
Cause once you've worn the red and white
You'll never be the same
For any time The Mustangs lose
There dies a piece of you
But with each Red Antz' victory
Your life becomes renewed!!!

Big thanks to Kevin Wright.

Taking care of business.....
The Sweetwater Mustangs travel to Borger for the game with the Borger Bulldogs tonight. In the words of Bachman Turner Overdrive, it's time to take care of business.
The Mustangs are on a roll. A good roll in fact.
From the Borger News Herald Sports Editor Rusty Berry:
"Over the last 25-30 years, the Mustangs have been probably one of, if not the best, football programs in class 4A & 3A in West Texas.
From it’s famous Mustang Bowl it plays on, to the community support that has been recognized as one of the best in the state, there is a tradition in Sweetwater for football that many cities wished it could have."
It's Homecoming tonight in Borger. It's time for the Mustangs to roll into town and put a damper on the party. I think the Mustangs should have a good game in the rushing department as last week the Bulldogs gave up some 400 yards rushing to Randall in a 56-21 loss for Borger.
But everyone knows Borger is a tough solid club and I expect a good game tonight.
This will be the first time this season that Borger has faced a wishbone attack. Hopefully, the Mustang wishbone and misdirection plays will keep the Borger passing game on the sidelines.
Let's go Red!
It's time to take care of business.
