Looking for a scrimmage for an All-star team.

Thats why we need metro ball fall, winter, spring and summer.

Are you having any camps for the 9 year olds this summer?

updates?

Well we are "baseball people", supporting "soccer people", but we did skip the Ozen matchup last week, due to weather.

If you haven't watched our Pirates soccer team, they are VERY impressive, never been to game until this year, and have enjoyed the two I have attended, we have a great group of young men!

Vidor youth baseball league opening day is March 31.

Well we dont seem to have this problem following the Varsity boys soccer team. But oh well Ill catch a game eventually!

Wow this is another game we were planning on attending and the time was moved. So how DO I find out when the games are changed, because the times and dates on vidorisd.org are not correct?

Wonder how they expect any support if the times and dates are kept a secret.

Jason, thank you for putting on the Spring Ball league, it was a wonderful oppurtunity for players and parents that desire more baseball.

Thanks coach Jay and Chris, it was wonderful working with you.

Thanks to the kids and parents of the Minor league Phillies, we had a great team dynamic and everyone always had a positive attitude.

Hope to have more "offseason" baseball oppurtunities in the future!

[b]kid pitch only please [/b] you can add him and then drop him after the tournament, we are not interested in coach pitch, but thank you for all the invites!

I have an 8 year old who has been pitching in the Ford Park spring League if anyone needs to add a pitcher for the upcoming kid pitch tournament May 12-13. [email protected]

Wish I would have known, we pulled up to the high school tonight around 720 and couldnt understand why there wasnt a game.

Vidor PONY March 31!

I like the dark blue jerseys with the rainbow. When they changed to the Navy and sparkling gold, I didnt like it. When they changed to the "brick and sand", I then appreciated the gold and navy. Looking back now the Navy and gold is my second favorite, wouldnt mind revisiting that color scheme again.

Also the star now is just boring, again the slant with the gold and navy was better.

Uh thats original, never heard that one B4

I can go for a change I never liked the "Brick and Sand" colors, but I would be disappointed if we lost the ASTRO name.

Glad to see local talent getting to the next level and Lamar for scoring an awesome reciever!

Merry Christmas  :)

I too am a Vidor Pirate fan, very proud of the youngmen and ladies that represent my town and almamater. I too questioned why no representation was there for an exceptional team. However i read the article and when I got to this paragraph it all made sense to me...

[i]"Vidor deserves special mention here too. The Pirates are not considered for Super Team recognition because Vidor is not part of The News circulation area."[/i]

Its a great write up and some extraordinary young men in the article I wish them the best.

Yeah but have you wondered why they don't consider us in part of The News circulation area? I mean they have WOS players, BC players, Nederland players, Ozen players. We are right in the middle of that. Why don't they consider us?

I think they do not deliver in Vidor. I don't see them in the gas stations and I don't think they end up in driveways. I do not believe Vidor is being picked on, if that is what your getting at.

This is one reason I prefer baseball, no hankies and the umpires NEVER miss a call!

I didn't read the entire board, so someone may have said something like this already.

Does anyone remember PNG-Central brawl? The year that happened, PNG had a ton of seniors and had a rough year... Would punishing PNG the next season be a righteous punishment? Not at all! Most of the fighters were seniors (general statement because the team was mostly seniors). They didn't care.

My point is that you can't ruin the next season for the juniors, sophomores, and freshman who had absolutely no part in this fight. That's why the coaches are left with the punishment. If there is film on the fight, you can punish individual players, but you can't punish the entire program, a good chunk of both teams will be new next year.

You see it happen in colleges all the time.  A school would be barred from the playoffs (Bowl Games) for X # of yrs.  Yes, you're punishing kids that may not have been involved,  but the main purpose, IMO, is to straighten the coaches out.    Because, ultimately,  discipline comes from the coaches and is instilled in to the players.

I think it is different for a college program because punishments in years following can hurt recruitment efforts, and players can move to another school if Im not mistaken.

As for Ozen and any punishment involved I would like to recommend one of two.

1 Next season when playing Vidor, Jacobi Jones should be required to play the entire game with his shoelaces tied together, and Trey Green also if he is returning.

2 Next season, again only in the Vidor game, the Ozen end zone should be shrunk to a 1 square foot patch of field, placed on a skate board, with a string attached to it, ran to Coach Mathews hand!
