Rick Culbert was fast, so too was Bollinger.  I think Haylon Leckelt belongs in that group as well.

Should be back for start of district next week.

Cardinals- 
Strength-halftime show
 
 

Vidor had 0 pass attempts.  And they were 15-30 for those  203 yds, with 75 of those yds coming on one play.

I am sure that the kids who dropped the TD passes feel pretty bad about it and will shoulder the blame for not scoring more. Number 3 that y’all are talking about feels the same way. May not wanna specify things and call kids out like that. Remember they are only kids. All Pros and all Americans do the same thing. These kids bustin their tails for png. Even if they come up short sometimes

Sorry Rob, love your enthusiasm but Vidor  is not an elite program. Very competitive some years better than others but not elite. Love my Pirates but just trying to be real , no pun intended. Would love to have  a turf field but it’s got to come with new schools. I don’t mind paying a little more taxes. Right now I have a 13 year old going to a 60 year old school and a 10 year old going to a portable building because of Harvey. Our Schools are as old as Nederlands. I voted yes for the new High School last year but it got voted down. Hopefully we can get it voted thru next time with some better community awareness and convenient times and days to vote. Anyway Go Pirates! keep working hard!

The only Elite program in OC is WOS

Imo, many schools don’t have votes on bond issues soon enough.  As an example, a schools HS needs replacing - Have a bond issue for Xxx,000,000 amount of dollars.  But it appears they wait until an elementary needs replacing.  Then, let’s have a Bond Issue, and BTW, lets put a new stadium in there, and replace all our desk with Laz-Z-Boy recliners.  Now the Bond Issue is a whooping XXX,000,000 amount.  Voters vote it down.  Again, imo, voters are more apt to approve multiple smaller Bond Issues that one giant one.  It’s easier to eat an elephant over a period of time than try to eat the whole thing all at once.  And that’s a memo.

One good thing, hopefully Galloway shouldn’t be needed against LCM.  No offense to Vidor’s brothers across the county, but it appears they’re having a down year and Vidor has a pretty good team.  The Pirates will need to be at 125% when Crosby comes to town.  And were I Jeff Matthews, I wouldn’t move that game no where.  I’d play it in Vidor if it had rained 15 inches, and was still raining.  Unless Coach Matthews knows we’d have an advantage somewhere else.  Seems like Pirates are 1-0 against Crosby at Lamar.  That’s a maybe lol.

Realville Live will be available for a Nominal Fee! I already have a PayPal account setup!  Lol!

Agree 100%.  Hope they do what needs to be done to turn it around.

Okay, break out the belts with the flags on them, or play two below.

Lol! Will have to put in a new blocking system this week!

Yeah, they left  some points on the field due to  some first game mistakes and botched exchanges.   QB should get better  with the snaps as he gets more comfortable with  the transition from safety to signal-caller.

Agreed, but that does give CC one less day to prepare for Vidors offense. Man Mother Nature and realignment has robbed us of some home games these past few years! Oh well, I think it was the best move. I’ll be there regardless. Just hate fighting traffic.

First off many prayers to RJ...To the PNG fans it’s time to relax. First off if you had expectations of a state championship that was your first problem and that’s why you are so frustrated with a loss. This team is good but not that good in all reality a 2 or 3 rd playoff run for PNG is a successful season these days. This area does not have the caliber teams in the upper classifications to compete with Houston, Austin, and DFW teams and that is just a simple fact. PNG will be just fine and should make the postseason. The defense is improved from last year but just missing the outside threat we had last year. Faircloth has proved he can score points and I have full faith he will figure it out again this year with the options he has on the field it just may take a little longer to come together. It is just week 2 of the season with a lot of new faces on the field. Get behind these kids and coaches they are leaving it all on the field and again I say RELAX!!!!

Congrats to the Pirates.  Great start to the season.

Just a scrimmage - yada, yada.  For whatever reason, Vidor put it on a good WOS team tonight.  If they played next week, WOS might win.  For those ready to give The Mustangs Last Rites, you should remember this is the same WOS team that beat PNG last week.  Little different scrimmage, but still......   I wouldn’t get my suit all cleaned up to go to the Mustang funeral just yet.
Good luck to both Orange County squads this season.

Don’t base  opinion  solely on what you saw at Silsbee scrimmage. As mentioned yesterday Vidor was not at full strength due to illness.  Nausea, diarrhea  and football don’t mix well.  Not saying anything about them being 19 points better,  especially since it was just a scrimmage just that it was a little different Vidor team as far as personnel available to play.

That's very subjective....  But hey.... *shuggs shoulder*

Against Silsbee, several boys had a stomach virus and nausea and  either did not play or could not play much.

And get everybody into the game.
