Superman That Jones!!!

It is always a great feeling to have football practice during Thanksgiving week. And it gets even more exciting when there is a possibility of playing in the snow!
This week we face another run heavy team called the El Paso Coronado Thunderbirds. They will be in a world of hurt as long as our Warbird D has a repeat of last week. Weatherford couldn't get anything going until well after the game had been decided. I am looking forward to that happening again. I know Coach Fullen has our boys prepared. We will have to play physical, mistake free football to keep EP's run game contained. They have one guy that will run it in your face down the middle, and also a speedy guy that will take it to the outside. I am expecting a great showing from our Eagle D.
Last week our Offense got a bunch of things going. I am looking to see another well oiled machine. I know that this will be a fun game to watch. I'm not sure how much the weather will impact the game, but regardless, the Eagles will come out flying high.
The last time we played at Jones Stadium was this round of the playoffs in which we had a huge win over Amarillo Tascosa. Of course, it was much warmer. I suggest everybody bring a big coat and a few blankets because there is a possibility that it will be in the mid 30s for this game. I hope that the weather isn't a factor in bringing a huge crowd. I am expecting a massive wave of Black and Gold. Let's go out there, fly high, and knock some heads around. GO EAGLES!!!
