What has also been very seldom over the years is that Nederland fans having so little to say about the upcoming season.  Heck, even negative comments would still indicate excitement about the team.

Did the football following die in Nederland when Larry Neumann retired?

No. I (speaking for myself) am waiting to see how they are going to look under Barrow.    Scrimmages aren't the best measuring sticks.

bd, I completely agree with waiting and seeing. Anybody who is ready to bury their school's team, or for that matter hand them a trophy, strictly based on what happened yesterday is being a little too much of a chicken little (or conversely way too boastful) for my blood.

That being said, that has never stopped many Nederland folk, even in years where struggle was expected, until this year.

I was surprised at that to.  When I did my initial post on here, there were only three, yet Belleville at Navasoto had 53 post.  And it's not just Ned, because I've seen very few post from the Vidor fans.  Haven't seen King Rob on here yet.  Is it just to hot for folks to think about football?  Maybe things will pickup soon. 

But kudos to these few Ned fans still backing their team on the Forum.

The Mayor of South Vidor is currrently enjoying a well deserved retirement out on a lake near you.  I expect to see him very soon with guns blazing about his beloved Pirates.....or the Whitney Wildcats.

As to other Vidor folk, that might be my fault. I could have sworn that I put up a Vidor/Galena Park scrimmage thread, but when I looked this morning, it was no where to be found.

King did score, it was 1-1 with the first teams in.  Not sure what the perceived panic is about.  Simmons looked in mid season form.  Defense had busts, but we're alignment related according to Barrow's comments.  Several bright spots.  Folks who have been begging for Ned to find a way for Kevon Latulas to contribute... well, mission accomplished, he was a big, fast, and physical WR last night, and caught every ball thrown his way, very impressive.  Hiltz also looked solid, he will be a big part of the offense as well. O-line was also a bright spot, got better as the scrimmage went on.  Lots to work on, but when does a scrimmage not reveal areas to improve?  Aaron Rodgers would tell us to relax

I second that, no sense jumping off the cliff and then looking for a parachute because someone said it would be there.

I may have overlooked it, but I didn't see Vidor/Galena Park scrimmage in the list of scrimmages.  Thought Coach Matthews was going to give the kids the night off lol.

I went the scrimmage and there was a pretty good amount of Nederland folks that showed up, the scrimmage itself looks pretty much what I've seen in years past, the kids will be moved around until the coaches get the right fit. The defense looking pretty good at times and the offense had bright spots at times, we played three different QB's and probably will play the number one QB more against Crosby. The freshmen and JV played pretty well also. Can't wait till Thursday.

I think yall are forgetting the Bulldog Way, Nederland has far as I can remember under Larry Neumann always used scrimmages and even pre-district to move kids around. Countless times I've seen Nederland go 0-3, 1-2 in pre-district then go on to win district or at least make the playoffs. I've always said Coach Neumann was a great coach because he knew where to play his players and I believe Coach Barrow will also take the same strategy. Nederland will be fine and the reason for that is, because they live in a great community, they have been brought up in a great program and have been coached well.

    • Yeah, I got that but talk about a stretch. It should seem obvious that Trump’s prosecution is purely political. If someone is going to do a whataboutism, at least make it similar.  This is so ludicrous that it’s like comparing a ham sandwich to a wallet.   
    • You consistently try to say Trump ran our debt up and that the stock market and job market cratered during his administration (along with other MSNBC talking points). That is a flat out LIE, and you know it. Not only are you telling a mistruth, you knowingly are telling a mistruth...which is a blatant LIE...which makes you a "(I don't remember what word you used to describe Trump, something like a purse for dirt)" does it not? You know for a fact that the economy, stock market, and job market was thriving under Trump. You know that the Democrats controlled the house, and proposed a budget that would hurt the economy, in which he shut down the government. Even after this fiasco brought on by Democrats, our economy flourished under his administration. Then Covid19 hit, and the blue states shut down the country. YOU KNOW THIS, but continue to blame Trump. You lie...blatantly. Again, what do we call these people that partake in disseminating misleading information. You coined it...that purse thing. Does the shoe fit? I bet it does. It is amazing that you try to put "MAGA people" into this little box for the soul purpose of allowing all negative attributes of anyone that will vote for Trump instead of Biden to be attributed. That is a sickening modus operandi of stupid people. It is hard for me to believe that you would adopt that childish stereotyping. But since you are willing, I'm willing to push back. I'm a Trump supporter. I will gladly vote for him over Biden. So get busy putting me in your silly little box of stereotypes so I can embarrass you some more. You've been shot down by practically everyone on this board when you say stuff like Trump is their Messiah, or that supporters overlook his flaws. Everyone on this board has stated that they don't agree with Trump on much of his behavior, but you ignore these statements and continue with your lies. Oh yeah, since I'm a Trump supporter, those comments were also directed directly at me. So let's go. Prove I'm a simpleton that will ignore all of Trump's flaws and vow to disown the bad ol' orangeman. Let's continue that diatribe you peddle. I now am interested in responding. I also have boxes I can place people in. Whose box is accurate? Better yet, whose box is more embarrassing? I'm fairly certain your box is more entertaining for the board to make fun of. TDS should be included in the DSM-6, or revise the DSM-5 to include it since this phenomenon is so pervasive now. You are a walking, talking picture of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Do you like that box? Can you refute the rationale for placing you in that box. Everyone can refute your rationale for placing them into your irrational box, while you languish in your TDS box.
    • Clinton got impeached because of it. David Pecker said it was true about Stormy today. Under oath.
    • Election interference. Cheating.
    • It’s not about worrying about Trump’s morality. It’s about him being held to a totally hypocritical standard that is applied to anybody else that’s not him. Double it if it happens to be a Democrat. What he did to Ted Cruz in 2016, for example. Accused him of extramarital affairs. Really? And the gang cheered the Master on. Sick is what it is.
