Welcome to Lumberton. After 1/2 time the stands cleared. Probably a 1/3 of the stadium (band parents) got up and left. I get it. They want to see their kids perform just like I would, but have a little respect and community pride. A few weeks ago, the band was set to perform after the game. The players and cheerleaders were held hostage and made to sit and watch the band before they could leave the field. It was disgusting. Not the performance, the band is good. But the fact that the band parents (not all, but many) cried and whined and complained that they didn’t get any support from the athletic department. Stupid. The band is a part of the game, and I enjoy them. But when the FOOTBALL GAME is over, the kids who’ve been playing all night, bruised and banged up, hungry and ready for a shower shouldn’t be held hostage. And if the football parents, players, cheerleaders are forced to stay and watch the band, isn’t that just false support and a lie anyway? I wonder if after the next band competition, the band members will be forced to watch the football team run some plays or lift weights. Pure crap.

Lol. I hear ya. Even though you’re the only one that has ever uttered that phrase.

No. But they finally got a team that can win a few games in a fairly weak district. Every dog has his day. Let em enjoy it.

Probably only 4 original ones. Freakin devastating.

Couldn’t have said it better. I honestly felt like if something could go wrong, it did. Also, I attribute a lot of that to playing 2nd and even 3rd string or freshman/JV guys due to injuries this year. That’s a huge problem for us. But it is what it is. Gotta adapt, get better and win a game.

If Livingston jumps out with a lead like Splendora did, I think they can take the Pirates. Also depends on Vidor’s injury status. I can tell you one thing, I wouldn’t put money on this game.

INT’s last night.

Freakin turnovers. If Lumberton could keep the dang ball, it might’ve been a real game.

#1 for Huffman has some wheels!

Win, lose or draw, I hope both sides play hard, have fun and most importantly avoid injury. GO RAIDERS!

Here’s the most important stat: Deweyville - 30 Hull Daisetta - 22 Final Score

No he’s not.

Yep. They’ll have plenty of time for that on the varsity squad in years to come. 🤭

Amen.

It could be HH or Livingston. Hell, even LCM or Lumberton. Injuries and underestimating your opponent can really screw up your season.

Vidor will go 3-2. They will make the play-offs as a 3 or 4 seed.

I watched it with my son, a high school senior, about a month ago. Laughed his butt off!!!

Have you ever heard Andy Griffith’s stand up routine about going to a football game? Priceless.

Very true.

6) NO SHOUTING!!- (Use of "Caps Lock") The standard practice on most message boards, forums, emails, web pages, etc. is that the use of all caps is regarded as SHOUTING!! 😎😎😎🤪🤪🤪😇😇😇

That sure was a surprise gauging from the thread earlier in the week. Sounds like WB Defense might be suspect. Not to mention the turnover issues.

Yeah, didn’t quite catch it. I wasn’t in the mood for a comedy tonight. I watched reruns of the British Baking Show instead.

I don’t. 😎

I have heard them called lots of things (many of them on the bad side) but FRIENDLY RAIDERS is a first.

Personally, I don’t have a problem with a Trump flag, per se’. Probably shouldn’t be flying from a city-owned fire truck though. But what about the fire trucks toting Santa around while he chunks candy to the kids during the holidays celebrating a Christian holiday? I kinda like it. I wouldn’t want that same truck toting around islamist extremists chunking ied’s at passers by during Ramadan though...lol. To each his own...
