Lumberton will not be 1-9 and HF scheduled the game so size of schools does not matter. My son plays for HF and I think they are better than last year but Lumberton was the better team. Good luck to them this year

I glad you said this, because you have been wrong before. LMAO

You've been know to be wrong before....

I hate that this game is on a Wednesday!!

I think both communities were impacted so not sure if either will have an advantage over the other...as far as how much preparation I mean.  I could be wrong.

Either the parents will go with it or lil Johnny can stay at home...

Thanks guys, glad to know you would all be willing to make an exception! Haha!
   But jokes aside, we will keep praying for you all as everyone continues to recover.

Message from the dville superintendent  
 
Free Tailgate Party and Friday Night Football:
Dear Bridge City, Orangefield, West Orange, Vidor, Mauriceville and everyone else. We hear some of you may not have a football game to watch tomorrow. This makes us sad and we want to share ours with you. Many of us are without homes, but no Texan should be without Friday Night Football.  Deweyville wants to share ours with you. 
We will have a tailgate party starting about 3:30, then Volleyball if we can find an opponent, then Friday Night Football. 
We have about 1,600 pounds of bbq, a volunteer to smoke it all, a DJ for the tailgate party and SPORTS. We are just north of Orange on the corner of HWY12 and HWY 87. Everything is free. No one will be charged for food or tickets.Come to the party and watch some ball.  For a few hours we can try not to think about Harvey. Be our guests and let us feed/serve/entertain you.

Okay Lumberton the boys invited the people from other states helping our town to the game tomorrow night to see what texas high school football is about. Let's show them what Raider football is about. 

Not really.  From my understanding, Jehling and Babin have a pretty good relationship.  In fact, that relationship is what got this game back on track.

Glad we all get some comedy in our lives in a time like this. We all needed the good laugh

I've got a son on the jasper team and they have nothing but respect for Crosby and know going into this game it will be tough, but plan to use it as any predistrict game should be as a prep to get ready for district opponents such as Rusk, Tatum and if we get to gilmer for the spread offenses.  I admire barbay for scheduling a tough opponent like Crosby because the last few years our early schedule hasnt been the toughest.  It's not what happens in week 2 but in December that really counts.  So Crosby fans our players are not the ones disrepecting you I can tell you that they know your players are good athletes and they plan to be prepared and ready for a good ball game so we as fans let's hope we get our money's worth with a great ball game on the field.  

ooooooookay

HF @ Lumberton friday 7 free to get in 
Also volleyball trying to get approved for HF girls to ride over with football so they can have a game also 

Beaumont Central @ Pasadena Rayburn, scrimmage @ 5 pm on Friday.
Central's scrimmage against Channelview (August 25th) was cancelled along with their games against West Brook (September 1st) and Katy Tompkins (September 9th).  So this will be their 1st time suiting up against another opponent this year.

Well said, football needs to be a part of the healing process. There has to be diversion, even for a few hours everyday.

it is my opinion that every stadium that is not in use per week should be available for any of these displaced teams. As far as equipment goes, if the equipment was ruined, have any vendors been contacted about potential donating equipment to these teams? What about the Texans? I've heard of NFL teams donating old equipment for these types of scenarios.
It makes me very sad to think about teams not being able to play this season. If there is a way, we should all bend over backward to get these kids on the field.

Lightning cancelled us last year and Harvey/rain this year, I'm beginning to believe someone just doesn't want Lumberton to play Porter.

That's ok, we can have the trash picked up. You can't pick up what we send down river. LOL

He who stirs it ends up licking the spoon.

Like Raider24 said, anything can happen. So lets just kick back and watch. I think its going to be an interesting year. JMO

Lol..ok I'm done,just wanted to mess with good ol  raider24 for a second..
i just hope for a great and fun injury free season..you never know with this district,anything is possible..

You mean kinda like how when this age group was there how we went to all the super bowls and y'all barely made the playoffs or was 1 & done? Or do you mean how that some of that same age group from Lumberton has made the playoffs at least once as varsity players and your group has yet to make the playoffs as varsity players?
