This is consistent with the more prominent band programs in the state. Some band programs exist for the sole purpose of supporting the football team.  Lumberton strives for more.  If you think they are doing it wrong check their ratings at band competitions. [/quote] wow really??? your purpose on the field is to support the "team" not competition... if you want to compete in colors other than your "SCHOOL COLORS" then have two uniforms!!! better yet join a select band on the weekend and stop using school funds! correct me if im wrong but doesnt the cheerleaders compete also?! (State champions... 4th in the NATION out of 30 something teams and they purchase their own uniforms ) you dont see them on the side lines in anything but school colors... just saying... strive all you want ... yes the band is VERY GOOD... but on the field for a school function... they should be in school colors [/quote] They are on the field, in school colors, and supporting the team. What is your argument? They are also supporting the school and district at area competitions similar to the athletic teams. All do their best and bring their "A" games when competing. Believe it or not uniforms do factor in at band competitions. Some military bands wear white shoes so judges will notice their footwork. Some show bands have their flag corp wear outfits themed to their performance and not necessarily depicting school colors. Most show bands in this state will be in black primarily trimmed in their school colors. FYI - Band people do their homework...  ;)

[/quote] Execution and adaptation are keys to winning. Lumberton refused to lay down and adapted to Jasper's offense well after the 1st quarter.  The Dogs lost their fire and never really got it back.  They young men have size and speed and it will show come district play.  I love the "cram it down their throats" approach.  I expect they will have an excellent year if they stay motivated.

[quote name="jordibug15" post="833179" timestamp="1283011804"] #10 on Jasper had been talking about one of Lumberton players all night and #40 (that coach c) took out had enough and said something back to number #40. I was sitting with #40's parents at the game and I asked his mom last night after the game and that is what he told her. [/quote] #40 (and I know the young man well) made a huge mental error.  You simply can not let the other guy in your head.  As a result, his behavior on the field cost the team dearly. Coach C made the proper decision and I hope the young man learns from it.  I expect on film day he will be reminded of this...

Should be a close game.  Give the edge to the Raiders at home.

Yep, that is crazy.  Deweyville is going to have some travel time as well.
