I think the coaches are willing but they are not smart enough bottom line.79Tiger wrote: Thu Aug 31, 2017 10:39 am At some point, the coaches and players have to get downright mean and begin to assert themselves. There will always be teams that are better than you but that doesn't mean you lie down and take the abuse they are dishing out. I never thought I would see the day the Tigers would be on the receiving end of a running clock game but it is happening with regularity these days. It is time to get the Fight back into the Tigers. The fans nor the community cannot do this for them. It has to come from inside each and every one of them. If they aren't willing, they will suffer the consequences.

AWESOME POST FRIEND.Tjhtygeverve wrote: Fri Sep 01, 2017 6:58 pm I wish the Tigers the best of luck & a great game. I got bumped to Wednesdays & Thursdays off by a transfer with more seniority & he took my schedule pick, which WAS Friday & Saturday off!
Gott love having a union at WDW, but sometimes it doesn't go your way at such a huge employer!
So no web listening for me this year!
I also just wanted to chime in on the hatred fans pass around more than the football itself as I am reading the nasty remarks from both Ironton & Burg side. It's really just unbelievable and really childish. It's all cyclical & will not always last the way you wish. To still hate on a team for 40 years of domination & to hate on a team who has a good thing going is just as so!
Bask in the thoughts of how much joy & excitement the fighting tigers have had and the blessings that brought & the pride it instilled in us & will never leave us. It's amazing & still is! Win or LOSE we are Ironton Fighting Tigers, & we have been one of the top programs in the state of Ohio almost all of my 54 years on this earth. Ordinary People outside of SEO don't know what's going on down on the river. I wear a nametag at work & it says my name & where I'm from. It's amazing how many people see that & STILL say:" the great football team & coach you have". As I'm providing wine service to them I thank them & tell them what's going on with SEO Ohio football & we chit chat & have a positive experience.
MY TIPS GO WAY HIGH ALSO, if they like football.!!
Why still hate on Ironton's tradition when the tables have turned and now the Burg has got a great coach, interested kids. & a solid 5-6 year run at being the best FB team SEO has?
We all need to stop being HATERS, and just enjoy the blessing GOD has provided our communities in SEO, right on the beautiful Ohio river!!
We all are truly blessed & are very lucky to be a part of the past. Present, and the future..
Enjoy it...
Look at how fast things change...BIG change. It could be much worse if we put things into perspective. We're chatting about football teams while others are wondering when it'll stop raining!!
Good luck to Russell, Ironton, the Burg & ALL of our fellow teams in SEO!!!
By no means am I an extremely religious guy, but after 54 years on this earth, ya kinda get the big picture!!
IN THE LONG GRASS BY THE WATER, SO WATCH YOUR STEP. AND LET'S GO IRONTON FIGHTING TIGERS, OHIO STATE BUCKEYES AND THE CINCINNATI BENGALS

I predicted the Tigers wouldn't win an out of conference game. I am happy to have been proven wrong. Looks like there is still Fight in the Tigers after all. Keep it up!

Re: Russell ky (7) @ Ironton(35)
Tigers needed a win in a big way. But Russell look like a reserve team had one player the QB. I want to see if this staff can win a big game then I will be satisfied Ironton is headed in the right direction.
