Love the show, fastest hour on tv. I think John will put the ranch in Tate's name. Tate being a Native American will protect it from getting taken over by the goverment.

Got a text saying season tickets sold out.

Carrabbas is our favorite. Really hard to beat their service and food.

We give on a monthly basis, can't think of a more worthy cause. Breaks my heart to see the issues some of these kids are going through. The address is: St. Judes Childrens Hospital   262 Danny Thomas Place   Memphis, TN 38105 

[quote name="indianchief23" post="1338662" timestamp="1353526466"]   This will be my first and last attempt at commenting on any site concerning Indian football.  Many Indian fans who contribute to these sites enjoy discussing the future of Indian football by injecting their optimism about our 9th grade team, our middle school teams, our junior league teams, or our kindergarten flag football teams.  I prefer to discuss the varsity football team and the debacle I witnessed over the past 10 weeks. Why was this team basically non-competitive and so unprepared each time they took the field?  It was abundantly clear in the spring that this team had personnel issues with the quarterback as well as with the running game.  Throughout spring practice, the spring game, fall workouts, and the Texas City scrimmage, there were serious issues concerning the ability of our personnel to internalize this offensive and execute the system in place.  The performances the past 10 games, turnovers, yardage gained, penalties, points scored etc. bears this out.   With all these problems, why was there not an attempt made by the head football coach / offensive coordinator to change the system to maximize the personnel on the team giving these young men the best chance to compete?  Obviously I cannot answer this question, but it is clear that there was enough talent to be competitive in the majority of the games played this past football season.  It was a disservice to these young men to be placed in a system that did not maximize the talents of each and every player.   I lost count of how many times on 1st down our offensive would gain 4,5,6 yards on the ground, followed by 2 incomplete passes, interceptions, penalties, dropped passes etc.  How about ball control (a power running game with the right personnel) limiting the number of possessions the opposition has, shortening the game, playing for field position, and keeping your defense off the field?  Would this not have made this team more competitive?   I attended numerous practices this past football season.  I never witnessed the head football coach involved in the defensive practices.  Is not the head football coach responsible for all aspects of the game, offense, defense and special teams?  In a recent interview, Jimmy Johnson stated that a head football coach, who is both the offensive coordinator and head coach, often, spends too much time focused on his role as the play caller and not enough time managing all other parts of his team.  I have a hard time laying the blame for this past season at the doorstep of the assistant coaches when the head football coach has removed himself from coaching all other aspects of the team.  Whether there is success or failure, it all starts and ends with the head football coach.   I’m sure that in the near future Brandon Faircloth will have the right personnel that will allow him to score many points, accumulate a great deal of passing yardage, and pad all offensive statistics which will aide him in future years when seeking other coaching opportunities.  Unfortunately that will not repair what I have just witnessed:  a poorly prepared football team, a non-competitive football team, a team unable to implement his offensive scheme. Bottom line, there has been a complete breakdown in all phases of this football team.   Finally, it is my opinion that there were 20-25 players who with the right system, the right preparation, and the right use of talent could have been competitive this past football season. Unfortunately this season is in the books for the players, coaches, parents and this community.   I sincerely hope that in the future the young men who sacrifice to play football at PN-G will be put in situations that will give them the opportunity to maximize their talents in order to allow them the best opportunity to succeed on Friday nights.

Great post couldn't of said it better. God Bless America and God bless our troops past and present.

Ozen 14 PNG 8  went for two and got it

5 out of the 11 wins for PNG are against playoff teams. How can you say the only "good win" was against Central?

Legacy has a team now also.

Congrats to Vidor on their TAPS championship.

Not as big as those at Kelly or St. Thomas.

I respect your opinion Bandkid but very much have to disagree. The voters didn't "overeact" to the boards decisions they reacted to them in the only way possible, by voting them out. The "old school" board created many of the problems you say we are turning around from. Two of the three that lost were long term members who had a say in many of the decisions to get us where we are today and the third was very close to those same decisions.

I never knew Odessa was in the Dallas area.

1999 Semi finals at College Station PNG vs. Shertz Clemens 90 yard drive in the final minutes to get the Indians in the finals against Stephenville

yea, but Nederland made the playoffs 11 years in a row

That's because the local people watched him play all year and are not just believing the hype.The same reason he made second team all district.

how about what a joke for him gettin army american team? That was the biggest joke!
