Dang! Ned sells out the same day they go on sale! Whats up with the "purple pride"? ;D

Kelly by two tds.

Of course he wouldn't. Remember the play with Laird as QB(or maybe Hood was still in)? He rolls out, drops the ball , the ball bounces back into his hands and he throws a 60 yard TD to Butler. Who was that against? Some games everything goes right for one side. Anyway, we should be improved on defense if we go back to basics.

I was referring to current teams. I forgot BC won one.

Ned has 3 appearences, 1 Title. Just think of all the teams in this area, Jeff County, Orange County, Hardin, Newton county. Of all of those teams, only 5 teams account for all of the state titles in those counties.

Nederland's isn't that great either. We have a big field next to the stadium, but we only use it for big games like MCM. Maybe some of the bond money can go to paving at least half of it.

I think they're smart for only pushing for a new press box and turf at the existing stadium. With all the rising prices of materials I doubt the people of Nederland would have passed a bond with a entire new stadium on it. With the all the crying we hear about the upgrades to Indian Stadium right now I'm surprised ours passed. That's just my opinion and good luck, I hope it passes. Yeah, they did it right by building schools first. That will make it easier to come back in a few years and build a whole new stadium. Although some people are not happy about Langham being closed, myself included, i understand that the 80 year old school is not cost effective to keep open.

Yep, I think the addition of a new CO Wilson will give it the push it needs to pass. It was shaky before with the first proposals.

Looks like the bond is getting pretty close to finalized.... Published July 22, 2008 10:43 pm - Nederland ISD trustees gave their blessing to a $126 million master plan during Tuesday’s meeting. NISD approves $126 million bond master plan Mary Meaux The Port Arthur News NEDERLAND — Nederland ISD trustees gave their blessing to a $126 million master plan during Tuesday’s meeting. The next step, Superintendent Gail Krohn said, is to inform Lance Fox of Orgain, Bell and Tucker, L.L.P. the district’s bond council. Then the LanWalton Program Management firm will begin work on details regarding the bond. But, Krohn added, the board only approved the plan and did not ask for the issue to go before the voters. The plan, presented by LanWalton Project Manager J.P. Grom, calls for three new elementary schools, a new C.O. Wilson Middle School, heating, ventilation, air conditioning work for Central Middle School, main building modernization at Nederland High School, [glow=red,2,300]new press box and similar work at Bulldog Stadium, turf for the field, land purchase [/glow] and modifications to the alternative education. Grom distributed a detailed, spiral bound booklet titled “Facilities Master Plan.†The glossy cover includes pictures of the district’s mascot, students and several of the district’s facilities. Melissa Wong, business manager, said the district’s bonding capacity is higher then first thought. Officials had planned on a cap of $125 million for a bond and just recently heard their bonding capacity is near $150 million. Grom also addressed a second phase to the bond and with the better bonding capacity, the district could conceivably return to voters in six years for additional funding for phase two. [glow=red,2,300]Phase two would cover the district’s athletic needs and include a new athletic complex, natatorium, modifications to the boy’s baseball and girl’s softball fields, tennis court[/glow], new Central Middle School, modernization to the high school Career And Technology Education building, new administration building and Ag barn. Cost escalation to May 2009 puts phase two at $82 million. That figure jumps to $118.7 million in 2015 and $161.4 million in 2020.

how about the '57 Dogs? Undefeated that year and missed out on back to back Titles by a field goal the previous year.

is that supposed to intimidate us? Nope, just letting you know.

Lots of payback coming to the raiders this year, we don't forget.

Yes, which is why I am more inclined to gripe about the coaches in the press box not noticing what is going on and making adjustments.

What ? no lumberton? I figured they would be good for at least #1 or 2. At least according to them.

Here is the newest info on the NISD bond: [Hidden Content] It looks like somethings will be tabled till Phase 2 of the bond. Opinions?

The Bay City game in 2000.

Not a central location, plenty of hall of fame players from other cities, etc

What did they do put a gauge on it?

Yeah, Beaumont is more of a central location for the area also.

Really its the suburbs. Most of the Houston ISD schools are at or close to 3A levels.

From Ned- Bellows and Cardenas, and maybe Salenga.

We didn't make a living on the run last year either. Hopefully that will improve this year.

When I was in high school at home games, We always walked to Hardee's. (shows you how long its been). Now, I usually sit there and talk to someone about the first half. I don't want to fight all the people in line for the concessions and bathroom, so I usually get food before halftime. Same thing at away or playoff games.

I agree. Ned by a td or less.

lol :
