snafu

Vidor is smooth sailing. I am 4 miles North of IH-10 on FM 105. Some small gust no rain as you can tell still have power no generator on yet :-D

I remember now why I was not posting on this board for a long time now. I believe I am going to crawl back under my rock and just read again. The bashing and all that is all good as long as it is fun and no one takes offense. But when someone simply don't care about hurting or offending other people that just isn't right. And no Corey and Jeromy this post isn't directed to just you.... I have been reading other post and it's the same thing whining and bitching. There are a lot of people out there that would rather sit in the stands and critique others who ( for free) get out and put a helping hand in. If not coaching, cleaning up the fields after games, working the concessions, doing fund raisers and such. If everyone was to look at what happens in their own organization and then step back and ask themselves "Do I want to be part of the problem or part of the solution?" Then there wouldn't be so much bashing going on. But it is easier to sit back and bitch than get out and help the organization that you fund with your registration money. These organizations do not run on their own! They work because people get out there and bust their ASS most of the year so that a few kids can get out and play a GAME. WIN LOSE OR DRAW isn't the most important thing. What is important is children learning to play a complicated game, stay healthy and at the end of the day go up to mom and dad and ask the simple question " Hey did you see me ( fill in the blank ) ?" But most of the time they run up to ask the question and get well the coaching sucks, or the refs beat us... instead of that there are a few words you could better with and they are " Son/Daughter you did a good job!" You would be amazed of how much a kid will shine the rest of the way with some positive reinforcement other than hearing someone bash not what the coached called but how the kids played. When you bash a coach you are ultimately bashing the children that were on the field trying to execute what he is being taught..... Encourage him be a team player and unless you get out and help don't criticize something you either know nothing about or care to pass on to children that would love to learn it. With that said I will slide back under my rock and let you blood suckers have your pity bash wars! There are good people, men and women and former players and cheerleaders, that try to make all this work and it doesn't take but 1 bad apple to make the whole damn day a bust because they want to moan about this or that.... GROW UP or GET OUT! You are here by choice no one is making you be here. Oh wait maybe your CHILD likes to play but doesn't want to here the bitching so he doesn't play hard cause nothing ever satisfies someone he lives his/her life through their children.....

1st of all 83 alumni is a very upstanding gentleman and there is no need of the hostility towards him. All he was doing was giving you a reason why they did what they did. Not boosting about what he had done. And yes he does have several films of Silsbee, Deweyville, Orangefield ( when they were with us and CL was coaching there) getting their hats handed to them. But it was done dignified. Ask around about the "Man Child" If you want a true description of this child ask CL and Claude. He was on the same team with a few of the starters that just graduated from VHS like Franklin, Foxworth, Beau and so on and so forth. He had a special group just as Claude JP and company had in Deweyville. And you are correct Bear with a big lead ( 2 Td's or more going into last half of 4Th ) I am eating the clock up. Just need to suck it up and move along.

I will say after watching us play Bmt Kelly and Houston St. Thomas that if we can keep the pigskin in our mitts instead of bouncing on the ground like humpty dumpty it could be another 500 yd night. I do not know anything about H-J, but I do know we seen 1 good team and a decent team and we played well against both. Our biggest problem is fumbling. Reynolds was broke out fixing to run another 50+ yd TD and dropped the ball.... we fumbled 4 times total against St Thomas.... they are looking good. I wish H-J good luck but I am going with them Vidor Pirates.... Pirates 31 H-J 10

I am pretty sure like most of the Refs for this weekend they had High School games to ref. Which when you are part of a crew for Friday nights you get regular calls, but if you don't show they don't call you and it is very hard to get back on another crew. So I am sure someone at the field knew of the situation. I know Chris Ford and another Ref that was at our flag game were refs for the Central / WB game later that day. So don't be so haste to judge the refs on why they left. Lonestar was called and warned because the local refs are going to stay with the Friday night games before they stay for a small ball game.

We lost 20-0. Hard fought game just on wrong end. We played Silsbee Srs. Scored all their pts in 1st half. they scored all in first half? did yall shut them down second half or did they call the dogs off..? It was a little of us shutting them down in the 2nd and 3rd qtr but in the 4th the did run mostly 2nd team offense from what I could tell. And yes they did take a shot down the field late in the game. Don't know why but what comes around goes around and for whatever reason they didn't see it was more sportsmanship to run the clock out instead of trying to get more scores. But some people need to have a high score to make themselves feel better.

Talk about frustrating for fans to set in the stands and watch the running game get 4-5 yards a pop, basically Evadale could not stop the running game, after 5-game type situations (to include scrimmages) to get better at this offense, IMO, it hasn't gotten better. Defensively the Pirates looked very good, I believe the Defense had 4-int's and numerous plays that resulted in little or no gain. Evadale is a much improved team from the past few years, they will make the playoffs in their District. IMO. Hey Big L is this your back handed way of handing a compliment to Evadale? or a small pat on the back for Deweyville? ;D Just wondering I was coming to watch this game but was bushed from VJFA games all day. I really wanted to watch Royal and Rayon again. I hope it was as good a game as I hoped it was. I will call ole Cadet LT. Claude and 83 alumni to get their thoughts on the game.

FINAL: Vidor 26 Houston St Thomas 10 Should of been 40+ to 10 but we put the ball on the ground on 4 drives. 1 was a break away, 3 others in traffic on very good strong runs. Theron Reynolds broke a 68 yarder for first score. Was a sight to see. Looked very good on all the drives up to the fumbles.

HOLY COW BATMAN!!!! The fox has had the muzzled removed?! I didn't think they were going to let you post again!! After getting your hand slapped like a 3 yo in the cookie jar before supper time, I figured you would be grounded and not let come out to play anymore.... or does your daddy know you are even on here??? hmmmmm I wonder if there is a razor strap waiting for you after school today???..... I guess if we hear a bunch of screaming coming from Mville way we will know that Cadet Lt. Claude has found out you are on the forums again............. Good luck to you and your partners in crime this weekend Marty. P.S. tell Big Daddy Mike, C.L. and "watcha got to eat" Charlie I say hey!!

BMTSoulja1 doesn't Central also have a new OC this year? Coach Watters from Tomball?

This is where the old saying should be put that says: Hey the village called and wants it's idiot back!! Only in fun :-D

Well you know ole deck hand Claude, he will hit you straight in the mouth and smile at you, right before drawing back and hitting you again... thats the Vidor boy in him. Knowing him he will run the same ole Wishbone formation, smash mouth, stop me if you can offense. Tell your men to dig in and it won't be pretty. I'm certain of 1 thing, after its all said and done ..... both teams will know they have been in a battle!! Good luck my friend dig in, PLAY HARD, PLAY ROUGH or I WILL TAKE MY BALL AND GO HOME!!! thats all ole cadet Claude knows.

Phew and I thought I was going to have to install guard rails!! ;-D good luck to you this weekend Bear!

You are correct sir when you are around I back my interstate up against the wall just for save keeping!!! ;p

It was moving slow by the end of the day, but the bad area was over in Anahuac. I have heard tell of a gas station with a 5 mile long line on the feeder road. Those were people from La.. I really didn't check IH10 as we was cleaning up and going home. I know there were some that left afterwards that night and were in traffic for a long time around the const. in Anahuac. I hear that the traffic back in was just as bad. One of my coaches wife was doing 10 mph around the Ford Pavilion Center

As far as I know we are a go for this weekend. Haven't heard any different from the big board. Hopefully we have all players back.... I just hope the next time they call for a mandatory evac that people do not ignore it... because this time was way to early and nothing happened next time people will ignore due to the fact nothing happened this time I can see the concern but patterns form and people will not head it next time due to nothing happening this time.... next time they will try to get out to late and be caught in the middle of a big and bad one... I hope I am dead wrong but that is the way things happen.... good luck to all teams this upcoming weekend. And the upcoming season for many of us who haven't played a game yet.

As far as I know that was the only game played. havent heard of any others.

well you know ole charlie he is hard to keep down... just needs a little bit of help right now ;D

Wow been awful quiet on here. Hope everyone is making it back safe. Been quiet boring here.

Them Bulldogs are a tough team also. I wish Kelly all the luck in the rest of the season. Congrats to them Pirates. Ran the ball really well, threw some good passes, and played awesome team D!! There was some awesome bone crushing from both Defenses... My hat is off to both teams for playing a very hard, clean game that was not decided until the last second was off the clock.

We are still a go Larry. 8)

What no big words??? Did you loose your dictionary??

Just so you know ole "watch you got to eat" Charlie has recently had a heart attack and bypass surgery, He is back on his feet, but could use a few prayers to help him through these trying times physically and mentally. Charlie is a very good man with a big heart for kids. So he could use a few old friends to give him a call and help pick up his spirits.

Well as far as the scoreboard working we will have to see come Saturday Morning....... But I am sure of this..... I have had the High School woodworking class build a step stool for you so when you get hungry you will be able to see over the counter to read the menu and you won't have to get your kids to hold you while you order..... ;D
