Actually Card, it wasn't the crying that most people are really complaining about. I mean we all understand that, to some of the players, it really was a heart breaking experience. No, what the biggest complaints about were the throwing down of the helmets, and the players who walked off the field without the customary post game congratulation handshake, AND the fact that some of their coasches even did that. This team showed absolutely NO class whatsoever. Even as bad as we beat Smiley, those young men showed the class of champions by going across the 50 yard line shaking our players hands. In the name of good sportmanship NOONE should expect any less. Those coaches are teachers too, and one of their jobs is to teach these young men respect for others, otherwise, if one of them makes it to the big time he will end up being like so many of the so called stars we detest because of their attitudes.

How about adding the Calpreps ratings to your list and see how close they get. Especially since L-Town beat the computer this week against LaMarque.

LMAO.....Dang, the bus musta left that one behind. Were there any tear stains left on its cheeks?

"I say we get Hollywood to film a movie about SETX football....any body know anybody in the biz???" I DO! I DO! Oh wait.....never mind, he just sells TV's at Wally World..... :

Dang Mizzou is kicking Kansas' butt right now, 14-0, make that 21-0

Okay everyone, it's crunch time. Time to get out of your seats, cross your fingers and root for those Indians.............go!!! GO!!! GOOOOO!!!! INDIANS!!!

WTG Bruins, hate to see you guys exit the playoffs. I was hoping at least 3 thru 5A would have SeTex reps. Next year we hope to see you go all the way.

Geez, WOS92 I feel sorry for you, not because you're right or wrong but because your naturally gonna be attacked because of everyone's attitude towards the program over there. I mean most of the schools that have played against WOS have said that the boys are taught to kick, punch, pinch and yes even take a few cheap shots when they can get away with it or at least that's what the others THINK. I'm not saying they are or aren't. Everyone else, give WOS a break, we all have our opinions, nothing to kick someone's virtual a$$ for you know. Lumberton won and that's that. LaMarque obviously needs an attitude adjustment and last night the first step was taken byt this so called cinderella(?) team. Let's concentrate on beating Waller next and I would suggest that any of our boys that received these myspace messages needs to save them and print them up and turn them over to the Lumberton administrators with a request that they contact UIL about them. If nothing is done then the parents should demand something be done. We keep talking about how classy we are supposed to be or rather we keep harping on how classy we are so let's really show class. Let Lamarque's problems go and look on down the line.

You can listen to this game on either cool925.com or tsrnsports.com

LOL

Mav, I agree with most of your statement, EXCEPT, the bad officiating. All I saw out there was that the officials were establishing their authority over the game, early and often. That's why you saw so many sideline warning/calls. It didn't help the fact that although this is one of the nicest stadiums, besides our own with the sideline walk (hint hint to other schools rebuilding their stadiums), that this field had the smallest sideline area for teams I think I've ever seen. But once the boys and coaches at least on our side got used to this fact they learned where they could stand. I sat with my brother who's been an official for some 20 years and I can't recall him yelling much about any missed calls OR bad calls. Generally he'd start to say where's the flag and sure enough up popped a flag. This crew were from the Austin area and my understanding is that unlike the southeast Texas area they don't work on regular crews all the time so these guys were brought together for this game. This also means that only the best from their chapter are selected for these games as are officials from our area for other playoffs. I know anytime we see a call, we naturally aren't going to agree with it just because we want to see our guys do well, of course the same thing happens on the other side of the field. I just got on so I haven't seen the usual loser rants about how we stole the game or the officials gave the game away for them yet, but I'm sure as I worl my way through the posts they'll be there in black and white. Oh well, I guess I better shut up on my officiating defense and just say.................................................................... GO RAIDERS!

What.......you can't talk your daughter in to waiting an extra day or two?!?!? LOL, w/o even knowing who you are I say congrats to you and your family and I think the L-Train will do its best to be around the next week so you can watch us again.

You know it seems odd, I keep seeing different references to Dayton either peaking or gelling at the right time, I'm just trying to figure out why it takes Dayton 7 weeks or more to "gel". I mean come on guys if you gel much longer you're going to spoil or turn in to useless rock solid Jello, lol. Greg Charles is obviously carrying the team, let's just hope for you guys sake he can keep going through out the playoffs.

Just one little correction here........both Highway 59 in the Houston area and of course Highway 69/96 in the Beaumont area are nicknamed Eastex Freeway so technically the Pine Island Bayou bridge can I guess legitimately be referred to as an or the Eastex Freeway bridge......

LOL......You know it was close to the same way at the L-Town Smiley game. If you've seen the Barbers Hill stands then you know that the visitor side would barely hold a 2-A team and yet Smileys fans didn't even fill it up. Another opponent was drowned out by the roar of the L-train fans. My ears weren't ringing saturday morning this time but they were during the game. Get Loud, Get Proud, Turn it loose boys!!!!

I'll second that, it was a good show. I was just disappointed that Smiley didn't do much of anything. I wonder if that's what they've been doing all year, it was the smallest band I've ever seen fielded by any team larger than 2-A.

Personally I think if L-town plays like they did against Nederland they will be virtually unstoppable and go all the way to state. We did a number on Smiley but I still feel that at the Nederland game the boys executed better than any other game this year. Lumberton will beat La Marque, it's in the stars. L-town 33 L-Mar 17.

Obviously thE Dayton boys haven't looked at the logo on the Lumberton helmets very close. If ya'll had you'd notice that the Raider is riding that bronc all the way to a touchdown........lol. GO L-TOWN.....LET IT LOOSE!!!!!

Just keep in mind guys, it's not necessarily the numbers that count but how big the heart is. Remember, Kelly (how many do they dress out, maybe 30 or 40) spanked the Sulphur Tors (a Super 5-A team by Louisiana standards) and they dress out probably between 60 and 90.......huge team at least when L-town played them a couple of years ago.

Same here.......like the logo 88

I agree with snp, thanks for the encouragement. I tell you what, if you think we got loud at the reservation, you should've heard it last Friday against Nederland, my ears were still ringing saturday morning. I have never experienced that level of fan noise in my life and I used to go to the Soul Bowl back in the days of Charleton-Pollard and Hebert and those folks knew how to get loud. Personally I think if all 3 of the 22-4a teams play tight clean games this week and next week we can get past the Big 3 from the Houston area.

I agree with you, especially after what you guys did to Sulphur, I don't see the paper chain gang defense being able to handle them like ya'll did. The only reason WOS is ranked ahead of you guys is the so called mystique that Dan Hooks seems to generate. Go Kelly, Go Lumberton, take state.......BTW for all you Lumberton naysayers, everyone has an off game here and there, if Lumberton were to play Dayton or PNG today as tight as they played against Nederland Friday I would pick Lumberton all the way......

Way to go boys..............just like the T-shirts said, you turned it loose! We Lumberton exes couldn't be prouder of you guys.

Raidernation, I'm not sure how old you are but back in the time that only two teams went to the playoffs from each district, Lumberton actually beat Nederland a couple of times, although I can't remember dates. Lumberton has always been a tough team just unfortunately had tough breaks too. The year before the playoffs went to 3 teams Lumberton went 8 and 2, WOS and I think Little Cypress may have been the two who went to post season. That was also when Lincoln was still around. Anyway beating Big Ned this week won't mean that we've finally beat them, just the first time in a while...........Lumberton 28 - Big Ned 17.
