Some closing thoughts...
Well Cougar fans we came close and unfortunately we didn't make it, but I can say it was a great year to be a Cooper Cougar football fan. We have seen them win, we have seen them stumble, and we've seen them show class and poise through injuries and criticisms coming from all sides. I would most definitely say that this team deserves to be talked about with the respect we talk about any other playoff Cougar team. We've met a great bunch of high school athletes that have represented us with pride and have kept our win, lose, tie Cougar till I die mentality. I would like to congratulate them now on an excellent season, and tell the guys coming up that they have big shoes to fill and I'm sure they will. I would also like to congratulate Coach Spradlin and his staff on the excellent season the Coogs have had. He has made it fun to be a Cougar fan again and his no excuses approach to a football program is really starting to show the area the kind of team the Coogs can be.
I've enjoyed being you blogger and I hope ARN will have me back next year. I know that this blog has suffered criticisms from not being stat heavy and all I can say is that I did the best I could with a full work schedule and living 17 hours away. This was new territory for me as far as 4A and not every team has a website and ARN has done such a good job with their gofriday night team pages it just felt redundant to repeat the same info. I love my alma mater and I hope I did them some kind of justice this season.
Go Cougars!!!!

Editors note:
Any comments with obscene language or no redeemable content were not accepted. So if you don't see your comment on any of the blogs you know the reason why. I posted everything else but the items mentioned above.
Any stats that I did use was from Dave Campbell.com, Rivals.com, LonestarGridIron.com, and a few other meta sites that had no author for me to credit. Most of the information on rival teams that the Coogs played was mostly gotten from reading pages of forums or contacting their bloggers direct. I would like to especially thank the Denton Guyer, Big Spring, Canyon Randall bloggers for pointing me in the right direction on their teams.
Thanks to my mom for telling me that all my blogs were excellent even though I knew that some of them weren't.
