I have been mostley a lurker on this thread, just reading peoples opinions for both sides of the issue. I am amazed at some of the things that have been suggested and the direction that this topic has turned to. To suggest that we pay our teachers "Less" to help the budget for repairs is crazy to me! Nobody deserves to make less because the "Tax Payers" do not want to pay for the repairs, upgrades, etc. I understand that the budget has not bben properly regulated in the past and I believe that we are all at least a little responsible for that either directly or in-directly. My question is this: Where are we going to get the money for reairs, new schools, and upgrades if Tax Payers do not pay for it? Refineries are no longer in Nederland; Our Hospital closed, Businesses have moved across the street and new ones are built on the other side of Hwy 69, so where is the money going to come from? The school system is all that Nederland has left. If the school system begins to fail and people begin to move out of Nederland, this could have some dramatic effects to the community. When I got married, my wife would not live anywhere except Nederland. She is from here and was adamant about living here, saying how great a community it was, and how great the schools are for our kids (who we now have 4 & 1), so there was no other place we were going to live. When she said this weekend that she saw a house in Lumberton that she liked, to say that I was surprised would be a huge understatement. Because that is where I am from, of course it made me happy, but it was bittersweet. I have lived in Nederland for six years now and have grown to really like it. I hope Nederland will do the right thing soon and if you think of it as waiste, at least we are waisting it on our kids and the future of our community.

I heard he might not be the starter for Ned next year. I hear possible move to WR in his future.

Two Words: Garrett and Hypolyte -
Jeremy Johnson (Silsbee) & Earl Hines (PAM)

Doesnt look like Texas will be recruiting Johnson at QB... Looks like C. Wood of Houston Baptist is going to commit to Texas. That gives them 2 for 2010 class. If he is a legit playmaker...Im thinking probably WR. -
I Sure Hope the New PAM Coach.......

PAM is getting a new coach ??? Havent heard anything or seen anything about that. -
: OMG, that is the funniest thing I've heard in years! Big L wins a couple of games and they act like they've got the tradition of PNG. What a joke! who said anything about having the tradition of PNG???? All he said is that L-Town has some good talent coming up as well and our team is also looking strong the next few years. I would also call back-to-back district titles a little more than a couple games. For a team draped in as much tradition as PNG, i wouldnt have thought you would be so easily rattled.

Anthony Beard Update???
GoBigBlue1997 replied to GoBigBlue1997's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Awsome, I posted his rivals page on Orangebloods just to raise a flag about him. I think they are waiting to see how he does after the injury before they get too serious about recruiting him. The weight is there, if he could shave a tenth off his 40 time... he will be one of the most coveted LB's in the state if not country. I wish all of ya the best and am stoked to see how he does next year. I am a liitle biased towards Texas, but would love to see him go anywhere and will be pulling for him. -
Anthony Beard Update???
GoBigBlue1997 replied to GoBigBlue1997's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Good... I had seen he fell in the longhorn state Rivals 100 from 46 to 99. I hope he gets back to 110% and ready to kick some butt next year. -
Was wondering if anybody close to the Beard situation knows how things are going? Has he had surgery and if so did everything go well? What does the early timetable look like? Hope he comes back stronger than ever and makes 1st team all-state this year!!!

Take out Credeur's success and we dont have any. Every team can say the same things. This isnt a news flash, that is why it was stated RECENTLY. Yes, we sucked, everyone beat us, we all get the point. -

You forgot Lumberton ??? Where was Lumberton in the 4th round of the playoffs??? What was the score the last time we played in district? 8-7.... I know you weren't asking me though. My post was about teams having success strictly running the ball. L-town didn't score until they made some huge completions on the last drive. You've got to mix it up to be successful... which I'm sure you know. You have lost what... 3 games in two years? You obviously had a better team the last two years and I'm not trying to say Lumberton was or is better, I was just merely pointing out the we had some success against Dayton and that we are pretty much a power running team. My response was only to Purples reply about our play-off exit. -
I think that would be a great idea. And then we can let America decide who wins the PNG Head Coaching Job! Kids have enough choices at that age much less who is going to be their coach. And why should the Seniors get the priveledge of choosing the Coach? The freshmen are the ones who will have to have him around for 4 years. Let them decide.
