"holy cow, that's a lot of f______ indians" - custer

As small children crawling age were placed on a blanket and told to remain there, when we crawled off the blanket we were spanked, from a young age we learned to fear authority and question nothing as we got older when our genitals stirred we publicly shamed to learn morality, they'd probably lock people up nowdays for that to, no wonder the viet cong is still around

Word around the sawhorse is that this hire might make some local impact Can't give away too much info, but let's just say that the new "ice cream man" might be familiar to those of us who have followed football in the general area

I'd be wary of guys that have been at private catholic schools, they preach a false idol there according to my pastor, check his breath for spirits regularly as well

parents of teenagers should protest about stopping eye rolling and loud music from mazda miata cars, or how about these kids clean there rooms instead of protesting to they might honer their father and the mother as the good book says

As I understand it was the man's distinct lack of irish blood that sealed up the job for him, his ancestors being mainly Scandinavian and german project to making a better leader of men

Not june 21 to july 22nd that is the cancer month according to the Zodiac

I just wish the scientologists would come to an agreement on things instead of always shifting around....is cholesterol bad or not? same with coffee one week good next wee bad figure it out

none of this would be happening without such a drastic change in the school system since the 70's. The flipped classroom model as opposed to the direction information model has led to all this apathy and lack of student obedience oh they'll watch the video on youtube then be ready for class sheesh no they wont

never had this problem with natural grass which is replaced by the lord when ready. The turf also has the cancer in it but they don't much want to talk about that

They should have let Walt Mangan stay and build on his vision, multiple state championships by now

if only there were a current golden triangle head coach who had previously worked at George Ranch not that long ago

all district teams have expanded because district coaches got tired of hearing from crybaby parents and people on public forums about why their little snowflake didn't get all-district. Which of course they blame the coaches for even though all the coaches can do is nominate people, they have no control over which of their players gets on the team, but anyway......in order to save themselves from annoying phone calls and public shaming....they just expand the teams to make everybody happy my big brother was a coach in west tx and said they used to start the all district meeting by saying "who all has a kid that doesn't belong on the 1st team but it'll save you some headaches?" so everybody got to put their annoying parents kids on the 1st team, then they picked the real first team, and added it all up. Simple

didn't haynes get sick of this kind of crap at lumberton back in the day so he just made all the seniors the starters? If I remember correctly is was pretty funny...all the good Juniors and sophmore played on JV and all the seniors started no matter what..they got beaten badly every week and their parents who told them how great they were had to sit and watch it happen it's a football game, get over it...seems to be that every time that game is close, nederland comes up with a big play to win it.....not sure why that is, but no need to throw the baby out with the bathwater...9-1 is a good record, seems pretty stupid to start putting kids who haven't been playing on field in the playoffs because you lost to a good team by 1 point

So a priest and rabbi develop a friendship of sorts over the course of serving the same community for many years one afternoon sitting on a park bench the priest says to the rabbi "I know this is a deeply personal question, and its okay if aren't comfortable answering, but did you ever try eating pork?" the rabbi looks down at the ground in shame and says "yes...to be completely honest, I once ordered room service breakfast and it came with bacon, I was all alone and tried a little" the rabbi then asks his own question "since we're revealing secrets here friend, let me ask you, did you ever sleep with a woman?" priest looks at the ground in shame and replies, "yes...I did...when I was first out of the seminary I was tempted by a young parishioner and in my weakness I gave in to temptation just that once" The Rabbi nods to show he understands and says "it sure beats the hell out of pork doesn't it?"

agreed, the comments are a good thing I'm not saying we don't have a right to question coaches, fully agree that they are public employees and there is some accountability there....point I'm making is that I don't criticize plant mangers because I don't have the foggiest idea how a plant should work. And hard as it might be to accept, we can talk about coaches all we want, but we really don't know that much about football just because we watch a lot on TV and go to the games. For example - a random clip from a youtube search This is Saban giving a talk to high school football coaches about coaching the secondary.......I've watched a lot of football in my time, but have no earthly idea what he is talking about, might as well be in a foreign language, but I'd be willing to bet that defensive coaches at PN-G probably do.....it's a pretty complex game, these guys are pro's...it seems insulting to tell them they need to teach "turn their hips" or "wrap up" as if they didn't know that already. It's a poor analogy because the stakes are so much different, but it's similar to telling police officers what they should've done in a given situation, after all my tax dollars pay their salaries right? But I have no idea what it's like to be a cop (even though I watch law and order all the time) so I don't feel like I'm the guy that needs to be telling them how to do their jobs That's just me though

yes..those are undoubtedly fundamentals of football, and I'm not trying to be a smart alec with this question, I'm legitimately curious...do you really think these things aren't being taught at all? or do you disagree with the techniques being taught? or is it just not reinforced? or it is that some kids are big fast strong and really hard to tackle. and I don't know who #20 is, or any other player on the team, I'm just a casual observer, but whoever 20 is...a group of people who have been successfully coaching football for a living, have decided for whatever reason that the other guy gives them a better chance to win....seems like we can have a little faith in that decision. I don't run into a plant worker at the grocery store and tell him "ya'll need to move ol' bill over to the job of OSHA compliance guy and benny should really be the operations manager, and then ya'll need to make Jimmy the guy who pushes the button once an hour, and then Raul should move over to the job where he breaks something on purpose so ya'll can pull overtime fixing it." I just have faith that the people in charge over there know what they are doing and we won't all get blown to kingdom come. seriously though...coach bashing just gets under my skin..my brother coached a few years at a school without a lot of tradition or history of winning, he worked his butt off and all he got for it was people in the stands yelling in front of his wife and kids what an idiot he was. So maybe my personal experience causes me to be a little to critical of you guys. It's good that PNG has such passionate fans, I suppose a little criticism is part of the deal.

fair enough, my response was mostly in reference to the "heads in the sand" comment. As if these guys don't spend the majority of their waking moments worrying about ways to make the team better, it seemed a little over the top is all.

What constitutes a run? your looking at a winnable first round game, a decent fort bend team in round 2, then potentially run into college station again, who lost by 7 points to Austin freakin' Westlake, PN-G would have to play over their heads a little to get that one, but it's not impossible say they fall short in the 3rd round game? is that not a great season all things considered? I would say that it is, but some of you supposed Indian lovers will scream bloody murder. Spoiler alert...PN-G ain't winning the state championship, even with the QB they likely just can't run with the more talented teams in the state, somebody will eventually beat them, once that happens all you arm chair Lombardi's who did nothing but criticize all year will then get to beat your chest "see! see! see!...I told you they don't coach defense worth a flip..when I was coaching these boys to the 8 yrs olds national championship over in Hampshire we tackled everybody!" I remember when all you fellas screamed out how FC couldn't win a "big game"...that's really easy, you just wait until they lose, then say "see!..that was a big game and he didn't win it!"....nevermind all the games he did win to get to that game...they weren't the "big game"...but now that they've won a few undoubtedly big games, ya'll gotta shift gears and find something else to criticize. If the defense pitches shutouts in the next 5 games some of ya'll will be on here talking about how the Ice in the concession stand melts into your coke too fast and what the hell are those coaches doing about it by God.

okay my bad, in that case fire everybody

You guys are amazing, the team is undefeated and just knocked off a ranked opponent as severe underdogs and you start a thread to bash the coaches. I'll tell ya what boys, once that QB graduates my guess is your current staff will be out of there on the first thing smoking to a different school that appreciates what they are capable of, and nobody could blame them. When that day comes, you guys go ahead and take the reigns of the program, bring in a few other good ol' boys that know what it means to be an true indian!, put in the ol' wing T offense and have all the boys go both ways, slam 'em into each other for 3 hours a day to "get 'em tough". Congratulations, you will have become vidor, every now and then put together a decent run but for the more part your sitting at 5-5, 6-4 year in and year out did it ever occur to you, that playing kids both ways requires that the offensive kids spend half of their time at practice working a defensive position? Which then means the offense would have to be dumbed down considerably. No more gadgets, no more qb and wr's in perfect sync, you'll be back to the days of 2 runs up the middle on 1st and 2nd, then an overthrown pass on third down, then bring out the punter..... your current staff has put the most dynamic kids on offense to go with your superstar quarterback, then put a bunch of average athletes with a lot of heart on D and coached them well enough to shut down a bunch of D1 athletes in the 2nd half of that game Friday night, you should be having statues commissioned of those coaches, but instead your going to run them out of town before too long, different town/same story all over the state, nothing ever good enough for some I suppose

...not sure what the expectations are in Liberty coldspring is coldspring cleveland is a much bigger school with better athletes huffman has advantages in numbers and facilities which makes liberty the likely 4th place team every year, hire chuck knoll to coach the team and this is still the reality of it. add to that an apparent lack of support from administration (wasnt there a thread on here about how they only have like 7 coaches?) and a lack of community involvement ( ever been to a game? quiet as a church service if anybody bothers to show up) I thought Deel did a good job for what he had.....Didnt set the world on fire in the win column....but he did genuienly care about the players....which was the most important thing to me as a parent....best of luck to him

[quote name="donald3633" post="979547" timestamp="1299616100"] I would rather watch any high school sport over professional sports any day.But what I would rather see is more education going on than competitive sports.Many school districts are laying off teachers or are not renewing contracts due to budget shortfalls.When I see a school district such as Liberty doing this and plan on putting more than 30 kids in one classroom it concerns me.Liberty has 14 high school football coaches and cant even get a winning season,but do you here about any of these guys getting laid off or not renewed,Nope.Kenneth Skidmore had 6 coaches when he won state for Hull Diasetta in '79,'Pudgy'Richardson had 6 coaches when he won state for Barbers Hill in '76.Why does any 3A or lower need anymore coaches than 6 ? We need certified teachers that can teach more than football and health.If you cant cut your budget good enough to keep your educators then you shouldn't be doing sports.Just sayin'!!! [/quote] outstanding post! too bad it has nothing to do with this thread...at the top of each thread, there is a heading called "subject" the words following this give you an inclination of what topic is to be discussed as you scroll down the page for example, you could start a thread for yourself and in subject line you could put something like "Why I hate Liberty Athletics" and then other people could read what you wrote and extrapolate on that topic as they saw fit. In this way, you could unleash your personal vendetta against Liberty Athletics without hijacking someone else's thread about select sports, fire dancing, cake decorating or whatever they were discussing.

I hear that one place where liberty is vastly improved is in the athletic trainer department. I also hear that there was an entire tray of firecracker enchiladas the other day that did not magically dissapear............you stay classy TheCru

I have on good authority that this game has already been scheduled for 2011. Should be a good one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
