I would suggest you visit the Equal Justice Initiative, aka the Hanging Museum, in Montgomery, Alabama. That is a horrible word that white people have forever forfeited the right to use. It's about a days drive and will leave you in tears. As for black people, some of us have turned it into a word of endearment and others would bury it. I go back and forth on it every day and have educated my children why it's not a good word but I understand why we as a group use it amongst each other. I can't call my lady' friends the b word but she can. I have no problem with that. Taneshi Coates said it better than I could, that ain't y'all's word and y'all can't tell us what to do with it. [Hidden Content] That said. The punishment seemed fine, he seems remorseful and I hope he comes out a better person because of this.

It’s a word nobody should say and everybody is held to the same standards or people get over it. One or the other.

You are a true "Pirate Champion" and your nobility is to be commended. Unfortunately, once the district beatings commence there will be no evidence of the qualities and characteristics that you have identified. DV will once again resume its true form as a coaching graveyard/automatic win for opponents.

You have to excuse 89Falcon. He is always quick to stomp on the downtrodden.

Yep, I should've known...Thank you 89Falcon for your prediction of Deweyville's season. If you could maybe go back to the original post and have someone read it and explain to you, that'd be super. Nevermind, I'll do it.The post drew a comparison to highlight the many similarities between these two schools who share the Pirate mascot and happen to be ~15 miles apart. I never once beat my chest and claimed world domination for either of these teams, I'm certain ESPN is interested in your 2A high school picks...I'm not. This was for the "historically horrible and slow" teams who "are about to be run off the field"every Friday night...it matters not, they will still show up, work their tails off and leave absolutely everything on that field for 48 full minutes...for their Coach, their teammates and their town. Not for themselves...that's the entire purpose of my post. Go Pirates! Black & Gold or Red & White...Its a Great day to be a Pirate.

I'm white, but very sensitive to the use of the word because of what Jasper has gone through as a result of the behavior of racists. I wish this kind of stuff would stop, but it just seems to get worse with society being the way it is lately. Common decency and respect are becoming lost concepts to a lot of us.

No. Barbay stopped scheduling Silsbee last year. They last played in 2017. In fact, Silsbee has won the last 5 of 6 against Jasper. That might had something to do with it along with a few other things.

I honestly think he/she hates all the schools in the area

You’re one of those guys huh.

It’s up to coach Barrow now. Put players in with heart and keep the program to were it’s been for 20 plus years, or keep down this road and people will be calling for a change. You can’t be afraid to hurt feelings. That’s why I love football. Many life lessons can be taught to these young men besides X’s and O’s.

Just sippin this tea.

I just have a funny feeling that this is the come together game we've been waiting for....27-24 Titans.

Sounds like he was using as a slang. In my house, I rather u drop an F bomb than use that word slang or not

Following SETX football, one could not help but to recognize the similarities between the two Pirate football teams here. Vidor and Deweyville. What do these two programs have in common? Obviously, they share the Pirate mascot. Both Pirates seem to always be the underdogs, no matter the opponent. Both Pirates are considered small in their respective districts. Pirates generally give up size, speed and talent to their opponents. Pirates have no quit. Pirates play with all heart. Pirates have no fear. Pirates are tough and resilient. Pirates are bought-in to their programs and have a deep-seated loyalty to each other and their Coaches. If Coach Matthews or Coach Prouse asked their young men to attack a nuclear submarine, all you'd hear was the splash of the warriors hitting the water. Obviously we're not getting sized for our State Championship rings but if you appreciate a hard working, hard hitting, never give up, gut-it-out type of football team...y'all are always welcome, we'll save you a seat. It's a great day to be a Pirate.

That's where they store your crazy meds?😂

Nope. Jasper has fear.

I thought both teams played very well. Especially the defense. Sadly, the commentary from the announcer, the refs trying to take over and the weather seemed to take attention away from the players. Both teams fought hard and hopefully will go to playoffs.

The one who posted the derogatory post about Vidor really urinated me off. Fortunately, I don’t see as much of that as I used too. I’d think a PNG win would be more advantageous for Vidor’s playoff chances. I’m confident that PNG & BH are in. It’s the other two that are a big mystery. Just want the Pirates to take care of Santa Fe right now 😄

I am embarrassed that some posters that were at the game just can’t acknowledge how the game actually went down and accept a congrats when given. The only thing worse than a sore loser is a sore winner. I am sure Pirate players are rooting for a Crosby win as it would only help there playoff chances. I think they’ve proven that they can win in this district this year.

Seems like the Forum is getting new posters, but overall the class is going down. But that’s Jmo. This Pirate fan is pulling for the Indians. There were a few classless Indian posters (and Pirate), but in the days of Mecca, nothing comes close to the Crosby posters, as a whole. And yes, there are a few good posters in Cougarland, and I expect they’re often embarrassed by others, as we all are.

Anyone or just certain anyone’s?

I think LCM, Huffman and Lumberton will be top 3 in district. Hard to tell in which order right now. This game will say alot

I’m the blind follower he is referring to. I guess checking facts with the coach instead of publicly questioning his decision making makes me a blind follower. If so, guilty as charged.

super impressed with BU this weekend they have the team to go win 6a state with harrison leading the way have a coupla knock down shooters and very quick and fast gaurds they should be a ton of fun to watch this year

Dang, that is horrible to hear. Hope the young man recovers.

BC 28 LCM 17

Stangs with an easy one. Jump ball fades will not be very useful against WO-S and WO-S stacks the best box in town to handle the runners. 34-7 Stangs

Honestly, the score of this game will be dependent upon the mercy of the SA coach.

Got to be impressed that he’s managed to put together 17 post. I’m curious what local team named Falcons are so good that one of their fans thinks himself such an authority on Pirates football.

Or maybe at least mental, emotional & possibly, across the board, meta-physical speed😄lol

Watchout for the Four Horsemen.

.... and 3, 2, 1

Actually, I understand that is not that uncommon. A DEC holds jurisdiction on the matter until it is heard by the SEC. Saved everyone a trip, actually.

Is Fred United in Wildwoods district?

Should be some good ones. Let’s go Rebs!!

Sounds like someone has taken a few butt kickins from EC. All of this rhetoric that you are throwing out there definitely needs to be aimed at your team. Do you want to know why EC comes off as "arrogant" to people outside of Winnie, it's because they believe that they can win any game that they are playing. If you go into the game passive and "hoping" to win, then the odds are not in your favor. Every winning program has that "arrogant" attitude. I don't care where they are from, but they have it. Just look at arguably the greatest QB of all time, Tom Brady, he plays with that arrogant, I'm better than you attitude. I am an EC graduate, and I can tell you, EC used to be the homecoming game for everyone. If you don't like how the BUCS act, then have your team beat them.

Nope. All play on the same field, at the same time, in the same conditions. No premature excuses here.

Bobcats, the Bucs think they are coming to a football game. Ambush them with a street fight. You don't hear people talking about how tough they are. The arrogance on the part of Bucs has earned them a butt whipping, and you are the one to give it to them. Don't make excuses, make plays. You are the host; serve them the most brutal ass whipping of the season; and they will get the same treatment from their next opponents. You will then be the favorite to win the district. If you follow the plan, EC will start pumping up basketballs on the way home. It is simple; no one catches a pass without a fight, no one cross a goal line without a fight, no one tackles your ball carriers witout a fight. EC is coming to your HOUSE; what are you going to do? Whip their butts with extreme attitude. Go Bobcats!!!

Negative,maybe by his senior yr,but not now!!!!These players are more worried about themselves and not the team,and believe me I know,their at my house all the time!!I stay on em but does no good!!!!

Huber and Smith was 08. 2 years before that game. Game you are thinking of Grogan ran behind Huber and Smith and ate PNG up.

I hope Collin Johnson, Whittington, Sterns, Green, and a couple other db’s are healthy. We are thin at db. I like Ehlinger in games like this!

Wouldn’t surprise me if this game was decided by 3 points or less.

Been in the biz for over 33, Coach Matthews is as solid as they come. He can beat you with hissuns or with youruns ( old Bum saying)just has that ability to relate to and get the best out of young men.

Ha Vidor can throw up their Vs and come shake pom poms for Crosby this week at the Reservation. I understand yall are butthurt because yall lost to the better team infront of a home crowd. We are giving complimentary Ipods to all you Vidor bandwagoners that are on the Code Red train. The first one to get a Ipad is that chump announcer yall have. Talk about a genuine AR$$, that dude needs to tone it down a notch . I have never heard and announcer come across the loud speaker and heckle a referee, talk about class smh. Good luck to Crosby, looking forward to a good clean game with no injuries, safe travels down hi way 90 see yall Friday night.

Sounds like his dad is remorseful.

Don’t get me wrong Crosby really isn’t that bad but the scheme and play calling is terrible. They gave manvel a run for their money. And we have a rb playing qb. They should make the playoffs off of talent alone. I seen someone put a statement on Facebook saying Crosby’s talent pool was down this year trying to make excuses for the coach which is a flat out lie. Crosby has some ballers on this team.

Ok...the coaches run an 8th grade style offense. When the QB drops back to pass, we don’t always have to throw it 40-50 yards downfield. Apparently, the receivers have a low probability of catching that deep pass this year. The 2nd half, it looked like they worked on the short passes and that helped. We can’t run the QB to death either. That kid looked wore out in the 3rd quarter. Hopefully, there will be a change at QB soon and Dunn can assume his RB role. This will give the offense a whole new look.

Practices start end of the month and games start the middle of November. Should be some good teams in the area again this year at most levels.
