I don't think Nederland's style is to run up the score on people either, so 28 points was more than sufficient.

That's exactly what it is. Our coaching staff has never had the killer mentality when the game is in hand. Doesn't bother me unless they do it too early. We went in there to get a win and we accomplished that. We didn't go in there to beat a team by 50. No need to kick a team when theyre down. I know other schools such as png try to run up the score but we don't.

Yep, it just isn't necessary. A win is a win is a win. -
Not taking a knee says "I don't care that someone is hurt on the field." You may care, but you sure don't show it. You are judged on your actions, not your words.

Taking a knee when there is a player down is the classy thing to do. No doing it to prove some idiotic point is *stupid
*Mod edit for language* -
Vidor allows non-starters to play when the game is in hand and does not run up the score. The score of the game is not an accurate indicator of defensive ability.

Vidor folk lets keep the trashy comments to a minimal... sure would hateto post a certain merry meth video ;)

Go ahead, I will post videos of the crackheads and alcoholics in Groves. -
15, 16, 17, 18 years old...that is old enough to do what is RIGHT no matter what you are told to do.
People from PNG are the type of people who refuse to pull to the side of the road when an ambulance is trying to get through because they are much too important to be inconvenienced in any kind of way. -

How about when the lcm mascot tackled the indian spirit several years back that was really classy as well. ;)

That was all in fun. But, PNG has proven time and time again that they are incapable of having fun. -

So, we should not use our time outs, not play our first string players, not bring our fans, not support our team or coach, not play Cherokee, and not schedule any 20-4A team for our Homecoming??
Would this even the playing field enough for some of you??
Some of you people are clearly bitter. Seriously. Many of you would only be happy if PNG dismantled their sports programs.

No, I would only be happy if they disbanded their school, period. And I have many people who went to many schools in the area who agree. I even had a PNG graduate at my house last night agreeing that the people who go there are arrogant, obnoxious, and lack class. -
Nederland, 24-0
-
I don't think Nederland's style is to run up the score on people either, so 28 points was more than sufficient.

Central, 24-7
-
Hell, Vidor won a state title in the 60s, the year my dad graduated. If it isn't this year, it really doesn't mean squat. This IS high school, after all.
-
You can't really judge Vidor's defense by the other team's points, especially when they go up by a lot early. You'll notice Central's scores came at the end of the game. Mathew's isn't the type of guy to run up the score, he lets everyone play. Class. Something PNG wouldn't know anything about.
-
Vidor, 28-13.
-
Thumbs up, Vidor! (As Coach Stank used to always say.)

Central scores, 28 - 7 Pirates
[/quote]
I'll take the blame for that - was just talking bad about their offense. -
Awesome. Did Central's offense stay at home tonight?

This thread has become bizarre. Vidor needs to worry about Central and PNG needs to worry about LCM right now. PNG/Vidor will be next week. If both teams don't take care of business tomorrow, they may find themselves with their playoff futures in somebody elses hands. No team wants that...you want to control your own destiny. I have met fans from all the area teams and there are good ones and bad ones, including PNG. To" hate" a school or team, I mean really hate, is ridiculous. Invictus...I have heard that PNG is making plans to honor Matt Thomas next week. Will you still hate us then? My heart has been broken over the loss y'all have suffered in the Vidor community as have fans from schools throughout the area. A little perspective would be nice. PNG fans take a lot of pride in our school and team, sometimes that comes off as arrogant to those who are not a part of it. Most PNG fans are good people, but some take things too far, just like fans of all schools do. Vidor has one heck of a team this year and it should be a battle next Friday. Win or lose, I will be pulling for the Pirates in the playoffs....whether you hate me or not.

That is a nice gesture, however, that does not change years of slights by PNG. I do not like the school, period. If the situation were reversed, I would be saddened, as well because it is the loss of a child and that is something no one should ever have to experience.
And it is odd how they think Vidor is full of poor country folk. There are an awful lot of poor people in Groves. -
With other schools, it is about the game and all in good fun. With PNG, there is a genuine hatred.
-
Vidor always had great fans, even with winning 0, 1, or 2 games for years...
-
PNG will be having a terrible Homecoming then.
-
I don't hate any school other than PNG. I don't particularly like Ozen or Nederland, but my feelings on them are far from hate. Central has always been a very classy school. No problems with Lumberton or LCM. I can't recall any other school we've played even when we were in 5A that I have ever had any issues with.
-
I went to Vidor games when they were 0-10. And guess what, I hated PNG even then.
-
LCM - 34
PNG - 29
Taking a knee....

Not taking a knee says "I don't care that someone is hurt on the field." You may care, but you sure don't show it. You are judged on your actions, not your words.

First of all, I am no daddy. Secondly, they only one stirring a pot is you. People ARE judged by their actions, not their words. They can care all they want, but until it is shown, it means absolutely nothing.
