Just a business decision...  Not bs or agenda...   If u were running a business, that hosted nations tournaments every other weekend and someone else came in to run ussa tournaments on your off weekends, you probably wouldn't be real excited about having your organization play in those usssa tournaments either.  As someone who's kid has had the privilege of playing for Mo and Wes for years, I can tell you they are very much about the kids and later on if your kid stays with it...  There is NOBODY that will work harder to get your kid the opportunity to play at the next level than the two of them!!!  

I don't know.  I heard that there was a school in Southeast Texas that has a football stadium that was built the same year I was born (1968).  They still play on grass manufactured by God and they don't have one of these exploding video scoreboards.  I do understand that in late December they did make one upgrade to their facilities...
A shiny new state championship trophy.
Although money helps, you can't always buy championships.
 

Png won 1-0 with a goal coming in the last 2 minutes of the game.  Nederland seemed to control the first half and png controlled the second from my perspective. Both had multiple opportunities, but both keepers played well. Nederland keeper made a great save on a 1v1, punching the ball over the crossbar. Png keeper made a great save that most likely would have found the back corner of the net if he doesn't get a hand on it. It really upsets me that this game isn't what it used to be like. I can remember when i was growing up going to these games you couldn't find a seat. Even when I played back in 08 and 09 there were pretty good crowds for this game, and now there are maybe 75-100 combined fans. I know this area isn't really a soccer area, and these teams aren't filled with the likes of Davy Arnaud, Lance Watson, or players like that, but these guys deserve better crowds than just only 75-100 fans combined that have been showing up recently over the years.

The two Nederland teams go to Lumberton. Should be a good early season test for these teams, and some nice weather for the 7:00 game.

Here we go again……… 

On the real.... Nederland is always in the top 2 in talent... The other being Central. This is, year in year out... Now with the recruting its even better. :Last I looked, they are not starting kids from Lumberton... And last I looked Lumberton is by no means a powerhouse... Neauman adapts better than anybody on our district.. So not to be negative, but SETX is SETX, comparing a suburb of say a larger city than Beaumont is a hard comparison IMO. Statistaclly, PN-G, and Nederland have done very well for themselves over the years, and this is not exactly a place people are wanting to move too..... In our case, its almost all homegrown talent, throw in a Lumberton kid now and again, or possibly a Nederland product.. Or vice versa, Karson Raines, went to PN-G until his 8th grade year.. But still homegrown in my eyes.. I know everyone can throw up a stat that makes your team look better in ones eyes.... But I think if you look at head to head over the years, SETX, especially, PN-G, has competed with per say, a Crosby, very well.. The last few, maybe not so well, but most of the time yes.. CougarCal, can attest for me on this, we bust our butts to get these kids as good as we can before they reach the middle school level.. Rather they are small, slow, or whatever.... Build what you have.. Its worked for say, 6 times, to get us to the dance... So while I understand, our trophys are old, tarnished, and dusty, we have competed at a big level, consistantly... Dayton has as well since say 98... Yes that would be the Dakari Pearson era.... And yes he did beat a 20-4A team, which was PN-G... But we where in the mix... So in conclusion, make your history, because if you dont you will not have much to talk about.. But dont forget about the rest... I do think if PN-G makes it out of the first round we can go a few rounds.. But I also believe that the 1rst round is the biggest test, because, your district is tough right now..... But I have seen our district tough as well.. We put back to back state finalists in 99 and 2000. PN-G, WOS.......... Give us some kind of props........ Now for the rest I have no idea what they have for history, just letting you know mine.......... Plus1 give me a break on grammar, I have had a looooonggg weak.......... Peace. 

​will they storm the field if this happens?

Absolute joke. I guess he should have smoked some weed and punched his wife. That's only 2 games.

Back in 2012 when my team was 11, we were scheduled to play Usssa and Nations tournaments. We were scheduled for a usssa tournament, then on a random Wednesday usssa decided to suspend all Gladiator teams from usssa for the season, cause they didn't like the fact that all the teams weren't playing all of the local tournaments. That wasn't right to my 11 kids that were on the team was it? But like you said buddy, it's all about the kids right?

That was a crappy attempt to try and start some drama. Are those teams required to play in it?

Apparently there r 2 buildings with one that is the size of an infield. Hear that there may be a lot more coming?

While I'm on here , I've been waiting to hear from go pro? No comments since big game

Believe me Brady I would love to put our team back together to show the nobody team what big boy football is about but we already have a game this weekend and next weekend in the cowboys stadium and dec 6-8 a AAU tournament in Houston. Tell them to play in Houston and we shall see who has the better team!!!

And Ned W doesn't want to break the spirit of the rule again on a nobody team that couldn't even beat the 3rd place team in the big school division. Bring us some real competition and we will. Move up to big boy football next year!!!

I agree with you 100% jag. But you know what? The STJFL is the best league around and a few jealous board members can take away wins and suspend coaches but they can't break the heart winners and that's exactly what the Bmt Sr. and Ned W team did. They proved the heart of a champion can't be broke and brought home Super Bowl trophies. Congratulations to both programs because you won't hear that coming from the board!!!

the peewee png team had a very nice presentation.  I think their league president was the one that did it. 
the junior ned team did not have much of a presentation either.  one stjfl guy and 2 others handed out trophies with not a word being said.
Nederland is not far behind you jag.  I think I will stay where I am.

Its been one hellava year! I just want to say it once again this is one of the best Jr football leagues in the state of Texas. just like anything, it has its goods and bads! I'm going to start out by saying its been a pleasure to coach the BMT SR team this year. I dont really know when it all started, but the majority of the STJFL Board didnt even want us to win. Well guess what, they did. The STJFL President wasnt even present to present their trophies. Its amazing how a formal board meeting can be arranged in less than 24 hrs but you cant make a trophy presentation to kids.  The other guy that hates BMT the most is BOBCAT101 (JUAN), did the presentation and it was about as sincere as a 3 dollar bill. These guys cant even speak to the BMT coaches that were left to coach the team after all the pot stirring!!! Juan you need to police your own league like not allowing kids to pick pro bowl players. The word is letters are being written to get rid of you. Than you turn around and make comments like youve heard worst that that at home. Let me explain this, supposely some fans called the OF cheerleaders the B word, so a parent told Juan and he said your daughter hears worst that that at home!!! You are not liked by anyone that i have spoken too but you walk around like your stuff dont stink. You have taken your given power in one of the best organization and used it in all of the wrong ways this year. You wanted a small school big school flag division and you got it. That has never happened before but since you have a son in flag now and you have the power it came to be and yes OF did win small school flag division!!! WOW is all i can say at this point about you. I'm not going to let people like you dictate where me amd my son play or whether i can coach or not. So with all that being said BMT SR team will be back to defend our SB Championship and beat you in your own game BOBCAT101. As for our President, if you son's team would have won the SB would you have been there. Or if your Father In Law's team would have won the SB would you have been there. I forgot thats the same team we lost to 1-0 so they could get a higher seed. I'm just saying!!!
How can you not present the trophies to the kids, you are the President!! You can make meetings to discipline the BMT coaches. You are a voted official in your community and you know whats right and whats wrong!!! When I was on the STJFL Board Big schools representatives handle big school issues not ever repesentative on the board. So i'm just wondering how BC can voice their oppinion about our program and than have a vote on our future. My teams have not ever played BC or OF so why are these two representatives have the red butt abour our organization. The one time we were suppose to play BC it rain and BC made us drive all the way there just to tell us it was cancelled. If we would not have shown up we would have lost the 1 -0. So who should be mad!!! I personally asked the scheduler not schedule BC or OF but we are the bad guys. So i'm asking the board to schedule the 4 SB junior teams. Just asking!! Through it all I still think we play in the best youth football league in the state of Texas. Good job BMT SR!!!!!!

Where you at Lamar!

Well it seems that the cupcake crew is growing up and their coach realizes it.  He has upgraded them to the "cheesecake crew"(if that is an upgrade).   As many of you say, the word on the street is that Lumberton thinks Nederland can't stop the pass and have been working on it for several weeks.  I feel sorry for #1 if they really try that!  Also hear that Lumberton coach may copy some of the plays that Ned W runs, he really likes the look.
 
Team party after the game for whomever wins at Buffalo wild wings with cupcakes for desert.  ON THE HOUSE!

Apparently coach cupcake has a lot of secret weapons he hasn't shown this year.  will ned w be able to adjust?  word on the street is he has watched about 6 different game films of Nederland and the bulldogs are getting concerned.  I hope the bulldogs can stop the speed of Lumberton.  they are a very fast team.  Going to be a good fun game.   Will it be a chess match or checkers?

I will let ya know as pro bowl practice is right next to them. 😜

I hope marie is right.  Nedw will be prepared.  Wonder what coach cupcake has up his sleeve this week.
