  2. [quote name="TITAN POWER" post="1078748" timestamp="1318245986"] [quote author=robanadana link=topic=89567.msg1078566#msg1078566 date=1318209970] Been saying all along it isn't our offense that's winning the games, it's the defense. It's why I have more confidence in this team than the 2009 one. The '09 Pirates were fair on defense with a good offense; this team has a good offense and the best defense we've had since Hatch was defensive coordinator. [/quote] Look Rob,  it might look like I comment on alot of your posts but this one I cant let go.  Coming from a Parent that have kids that have played on both the 2009 team and now the 2011.  Comparing the two team defenses is like comparing apples to oranges.  Give the 2009 teams defense a chance to play this style 3-3-5 come and get you defense instead of the 3-4 wait and let the other teams offense pick you apart and that team makes a deep playoff run.  Both teams have great athletes on them but to say the 09 D wasnt as good as this 11 D is crazy.  Look at the rosters of the two teams. [/quote] TITAN POWER again, you're misquoting me. This has absolutely nothing to do with the kids on the field but everything to do with the defensive scheme. I HAVE NO KIDS ON ANY OF THESE TEAMS but I've been a Pirate fan all my 52 years of life and this is how I see it. You are correct in the belief that in 2009 we sat back and let the other team come at us, I agree. The Nederland game that year was a perfect example of letting a sophomore quarterback sit in the pocket with no pressure and pick us apart. Stupid. Quit taking things personally towards the kids, especially your kids. I used to help run a website about these kids in 2003 / 04. When you hear or see me say something bad about one of those children, you can be the first to let me know. Got nothing to do with them!
  3. Won't be a close game......Vidor 28, LCM 7. Big win against Ozen, Vidor's defense, HOMECOMING!!!!
  4. [quote name="blackflag" post="1078687" timestamp="1318216845"] [quote author=robanadana link=topic=89536.msg1078551#msg1078551 date=1318209445] Please (yawn).....Im tired of playing three games in Nederland and then one in Vidor. If they re-align, it still needs to be at [size=8pt][b]ivan croak[/b][/size]. [/quote] Please don't call the Boneyard that .    :-[ [/quote] Sorry, the misinformed don't know it as the Boneyard. Just wanted to emphasize that the UIL needs to play some of the games in Vidor.
  5. [quote name="bigdog" post="1078325" timestamp="1318195371"] If BH wins 19-4a (probable), wouldn't Vidor have to be in 4th to face Brenham?  If Vidor is 3rd in district they would be on the other side of the bracket.  ( FYI , i would take it one game at a time, nothing is settled in this district yet, with the exception of possibly Lumberton missing the playoffs.) [/quote] Sorry bigdog, I don't cater to the belief system of its and buts. You want to make the playoffs you have to BELIEVE it or stay at home. I learned winning from some very good athletes post-high school. Never heard them talk about not winning....
  6. I'm not one who believes in myths and superstition. I definetly don't believe anything I write here will magically change the outcome of Friday's game. It is my experience in sports and life that if you want to win, you have to BELIEVE it! You have to walk, talk, breath and act like you are going to and not accept anything less. Every minute, every down, just like Saturday night. Otherwise, you might as well stamp the big "L" on your forehead. Most of the things I post are for our kids, not to ellicit a response from others. I'm not in our kids huddle but I do know they read this. I have to give props to Nederland and PNG's programs because they have that attitude and win with less sometimes. I want this for Vidor and I know Jeff Mathews is making it happen. [color=red][b]ARE YOU GETTING THIS PIRATES!!!! PLAY HARD!!!! [/b] [/color]
  7. BmtSoulja1, kill this thread, please. This is getting out of hand. Too many kids posting. Let's keep it civil....it's high school football and we're all supposed to act like grownups.
  8. [quote name="tupac7" post="1078615" timestamp="1318212145"] Must give props to that offense...Keeping the opposing teams offense off the field makes the defense that much better. ;) ;) [/quote] True dat tupac7 but for me it's the proverbial offense wins games but defense wins championships. Proven formula that wins in any sport.
  9. Time to kill this thread....it's academia (history).
  10. [quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1078567" timestamp="1318210009"] [quote author=robanadana link=topic=89577.msg1078559#msg1078559 date=1318209792] Vidor. We've won more state titles in band than anyone. (you didn't say football, you need to clarify next time) [/quote] Being that it is posted in the football forum and not the band forum, gives it it's clarity. ;) [/quote] Sorry, you teed it up, I had to go for the green.....
  11. Been saying all along it isn't our offense that's winning the games, it's the defense. It's why I have more confidence in this team than the 2009 one.

  12. Vidor. We've won more state titles in band than anyone. (you didn't say football, you need to clarify next time)
  13. [quote name="bigdog" post="1078460" timestamp="1318202938"] You still have 4 games left against some of the top teams in the district.  Don't count on the playoffs just yet.  That applies to all teams with the probable exception of Lumberton. [/quote] [b]Yes, I said playoffs[/b]. I'm not one who lives on superstition and myth. If you want to be a winner, you have to act, feel and say you are a winner!!!! You want the big "L" stuck on your forehead, you act like it. [color=red][b]YOU GETTING THIS PIRATES!!!![/b][/color]
  14. Please (yawn).....Im tired of playing three games in Nederland and then one in Vidor. If they re-align, it still needs to be at Ivan Croak.
  15. [quote name="phunter308" post="1077945" timestamp="1318160150"] Vidor 28-14, but Bollinger still in boot doubt he is back. If you don't need him don't rush him back let him heal up good. [/quote] Agreed. I wouldn't push David to come back either and I'm sure Jeff won't as well. We need him for the last three district games and the playoffs. Yes, I said playoffs.
  16. [quote name="Old61Eagle" post="1078005" timestamp="1318167527"] Sounds as though you are already saying "Wait till next year!"  You do know Vidor is still alive this year, don't you? [/quote] I'm not saying "wait until next year" at all, extremely proud of the playoff bound Pirates this year. I'm saying that this team is mostly juniors and sophomores, 5 - 1 overall, and 2 -1 in district. Nine starters on the #1 defense in this district are underclassmen. Now that's scary. And, my fine, non-rivalry Nederville friends, the "Black and Gold" Bowl will be at Ivan Croak Field next year and should be another nail biter down to the wire. Just saying.....
  17. [quote name="Scalp'em" post="1077008" timestamp="1318077968"] Vidor fans keep jumping threads talking trash? Ozen isn't any better then Livingston or Nederland. Both of those games the NDNs were in till the end. It will be a good game, but I think the NDNS pull it out at home 35-28. [/quote] We're not jumping your thread, only two Pirate posters I've seen. Indians by a touchdown; it's at the Reservation.
  18. PNG / Ozen game this week is HUGE!!! Pirates did themselves a big favor with the victory against Ozen....good momentum going into homecoming week. It's a black and gold district this year. Nederland Vidor Livingston PNG
  19. I have to wish for that, you keep picking against my team. Tell your coach to call Jeff Mathews and lets get a home and away. I'm sure Jeff would do it. Heck, we play Texarkana. Brenham is a lot closer. Nederland beat us on a fourth and 18 play; BH and Ned went to O/T. It could happen....by the way, my wife is from College Station and I know your vaunted program well. Actually seen a Cubs game in Brenham vs Waller. You won...
  20. LCM won't score 14 points on the Pirate defense and Mr. Bollinger may be back this week. Ozen victory coupled with Mighty Pirate homecoming = Vidor 28 - LCM 7
  21. BMTSoulja1, you are an honorary Pirate. I'll get you a black and gold jersey if you want. Always welcome on our side of the field....I'm just broken hearted I'm not there to watch. Hopefully, by the PNG game I'll be back in the US to watch some football. Back to Manchester United and Everton....just not the same.
  22. but most of this Pirate football team including Mr. Quirante IS BACK NEXT YEAR!!!
  23. Where we gonna be in the area rankings now??? I want Brenham in the playoffs because they keep rooting for the team playing against us!!!
  24. from your fans in Thailand. Play with heart, play with conviction, play every down like it's the last down of football you'll ever play. Play Hard!! Good luck to both teams tonight....no injuries....God bless every one of the kids on the field.
