  1. [quote name="WOSgrad" post="1254005" timestamp="1346265452"] [quote author=robanadana link=topic=102178.msg1253923#msg1253923 date=1346257733] The whole point of my comment is not who is the best football team in Orange County. The point is that the Mexican radio broadcast from Orange doesn't include Vidor as part of Orange County. Vidor is the largest school in the OC yet here we go being dissed again by the local media. I equate them with the Beaumont Rag as far as their ability to report anything sports related. Considering our fans loyalty, I believe they would get more listeners from Vidor than the other schools COMBINED. I'll stick to the Vidorian and PA News..... [/quote] Well, there are a couple of definite reasons that KOGT does not broadcast Vidor games and another possible reason.  First, no entity, not KOGT, not SETXsports, not Legacy Sports Network, not any other broadcast entity will be allowed to broadcst Vidor ballgames because it is my understanding that Vidor ISD is in the second year of an exclusive contract with some UHF station that operates out of Vidor that broadcasts the game tape delay or sells CD's of the game.  Second, as has been previously noted, KOGT's signal does not reach Vidor at night.  Heck it barely makes it to McLewis at night.  Why in the world would Gary conduct a broadcast for a high school that if someone turned the radio on at the high school they couldn't get the game!?  That makes no sense. And finally,  I can tell you frrom first hand experience that sponsorship from Vidor for Vidor broadcasts has been a problem.  In fact, the last year that SETXsports broadcasted Vidor in the regular season, we were able to get one person to sponsor Vidor broadcasts (and that was with a very high placed member of the Vidor ISD school board assisting us).  Further, when we were able to gain the rights to the Vidor playoff broadcasts (after first being told "no" by the Vidor ISD superintendent), we attempted on this board and in other internet places to gain sponsorship on Vidor broadcasts.  Despite the fact that I KNOW that there are Vidor business owners or Vidor residents who own businesses in Beaumont, THERE WAS NOT ONE ENTITY OR PERSON WHO STEPPED UP TO SPONSOR THE BROADCASTS.  Now, as you know, we did them anyway, and for one of those games had to fight pretty doggone with the venue to be able to do it.  But we enjoyed doing the playoff games and we were willing to eat the costs involved.  However, KOGT is not Gary Stelly's hobby like it is for many here....it is how he feeds his family and how he pays his bills, which include paying at least 12 folks who work at KOGT to support their families.  When he undertakes something like this, sponsorship is a must and if he has encountered the same reception we have in that regard, I know why he doesn't do Vidor broadcasts. It is not like he disses Vidor.  He had article after article about last year's Pirates, from the untimely passing of Matt Thomas to the run through the playoffs.  In fact, one of the biggest articles he has published on KOGT.com during this preseason was about Coach Mathews. Someone owes this man an apology. well you say this but if i remember right last year at the playoffs they were there at the games. the we were part of orange county. now we are not in orange county. make up your mind
  2. Now here is something funny ;D.  Two former Nederland Players co-coach of the year.LOL.... Congratulations Robbins and Green, ya'll deserve it. [quote name="BaseBow" post="1012422" timestamp="1305804998"] [quote author=silly365 link=topic=84336.msg1011705#msg1011705 date=1305607608] i can understand kyle for coach of the year but robbins? come on now brevelle did a much better job of coaching with all that went on with his program. heck everybody wrote him off after the first 4 or 5 games. he is well deserving of this. how many times did you see joe torre win manager of the year? heck he was expected to win like nederland has been over the last 4 years . take the talent nederland has had just over the last 2 years lol and to lose in the second round and barely made it out of the first round last 2 years its a joke [/quote]Take it you have a kid on the team...That is very nice that you compare us to the Yankees, but we had a few issues of our own in Nederland ...Just like every other high school team..Robbins and Green have one of the hardest jobs in high school sports...Both coaches  deserve what they got...heck Robbins has had me for the past 4 years to deal with ...And that is not a easy task....And what Green has done in Vidor, that is enough said about that..
