Thanks. Not sure if it's my browser or what, but wouldn't allow me to edit it.

Need to edit my pickems, but it won't let me. Somehow highlighted both teams on the first two pickems. My picks are supposed to be Crosby and WOS. Can they be changed or do I need to resubmitt

Ok, let's see if I can rebound from the disaster that was week 11...LOL Vidor vs Crosby WOS vs Tarkington Coldspring vs Lamarque Woodville vs Anahuac Tenaha vs Sabine Pass Longview vs Westbrook PA Memorial vs Porter PNG vs Barbers Hill Bridge City vs Center Henderson vs LCM Silsbee vs Carthage Jasper vs Pittsburg Shepherd vs Hardin Jefferson Hempstead vs Kirbyville Hitchcock vs Buna Newton vs Waskom Evadale vs Timpson Overton vs Hull Daisetta New Caney vs Beaumont Central Bellville vs Orangefield

After bombing week 11, I'm not sure my brain is up to a playoff run...LOL

I am quite certain it was my worst week of the year, by a long shot. I didn't add up the numbers, it was too depressing. Nothing like ending the season on a low note!!!

Broke the tie last night. Played Flour Bluff for the DC. Won 31-7.

My two cents (yes they are wooden cents so worth less than a wooden nickle)...LOL PNG/PAM is not a rivalry as there is no history between the two schools. The students at neither school have experienced the "thrill of victory or the agony of defeat" at the hands of the other. PAM as a relatively young school is still building it's traditions and probably still looking for that true, you are the spawn of the devil and we can't stand you at least for the week of the game, rival. PNG on the other hand has been playing football a long time, has well established traditions, and a natural rival in Nederland given the proximity of the communities and the fact that they were playing each other long before they played any of the old Port Arthur schools (if my memory is correct). There is; however, (I can never remember if the semi-colon or comma comes first LOL) a history of rivalry between the Port Arthur and Portneches/Groves communities and the parents and grandparents that attended PNG, TJ, Lincoln, or SFA can remember quite well the rivalries that did exist in the past. Maybe it is nostalgia, but many remember, perhaps longingly, when tickets were hard to come by, the stadium in Port Neches or Port Arthur would be packed to overflowing, excitement was in the air, and everyone would be pumped up for the game. I think PAM/PNG has the potential to become that kind of rivalry in the future. PAM/Nederland has a lot of potential as well. A three way battle royal for bragging rights in Mid/South Jefferson County...good stuff if you ask me. Yes, for the "older" folks it may be a kind of "back to the future" thing...but what is wrong with that? Good football and heated rivalries (old or new) are a big part of the allure of high school football.

Bremond has a great football tradition. Like everyone they have had ups and downs over the years but they have had a lot of up years. If I'm not mistaken, Woodvilles head coach played his HS football at Bremond.
