I've had the chance to see all the Lumberton games this year since my son is a senior and plays on the team. After every game I have beamed with pride as the team that no one expected much out of, continued to prove them wrong week after week. Last night as a parent...I couldn't have been prouder. Our boys took on a team that was bigger, faster, stronger and just as well coached as they were and fought right up until the bitter end, just the way champions are supposed to do! They did it with style, they did it with heart and they did it with ''CLASS''! After the game, though heartbroken and teary eyed , they kept their heads up and lined up and marched across the field to congratulate the victors demonstrating a level of class that's beyond commendable. Waller fans, players and coaches matched our class act ounce for ounce. Though they had to be ecstatic, they maintained the level of professionalism that they displayed throughout the entire game. If we were to fall, we fell to a fine football team backed by first class fans...my hats off to Waller and best of luck to you guys against future teams. For the few hundred 'fans' that left early, you cheated yourselves. You left thinking you had seen the fall of the Mighty L-Train. For the thousands of ''FANS'' that stayed and cheered, screamed, sang, shook hands, hugged necks and wiped tears,we saw the truth...not the ''fall'' of the Mighty L-Train but the ''rise'' of a true champion spirit, that my friends, is what you get ...when you truly ''BELIEVE''! LUMBERTON RAIDERS....SALUTE! God bless each of you!

True, he is...passing to....hmmmm...Dugat?

Thats awsome, just so happens I had that same talk with my L-Train son this very season only we were leaving the PNG stadium. (that was the '1' in the 11-1) PNG shows sportsmanship in the 'L' column as well as the 'W'. Congrats on a great season guys!

I graduated from K-Ville back in 85...last week at Stalworth Stadium it hit me...there were more people in the homeside stands at that game than LIVED in the whole city of Kirbyville when I graduated ...although Cat stadium was packed when we beat Stephen F Austin in 84 ...but not till after half time lol

Who whould you want to see under center?

I graduated from K-Ville in 85, would luv to see this next game but...my kido is a Raider so I'll be on the L-Train in Deer Park...BEST OF LUCK TO THE CATS!

I went to elementry and Jr. High in Orange, graduated from Kirbyville and live in Lumberton...im batting a thousand! ;D

Ha ha ha...The Lumberville Mustcats

Can you imagine being a DB and looking in the backfield and seeing Garret, Rhoads and Hussy lined up in a power eye...thought would have 'long night' written all over it! GOOD LUCK TO ALL THREE!

GOOD LUCK GUYS! KEEP IT ROLLIN!

maybe thats past COOPS bedtime lol

...dont suppose u mentioned the train horn huh??? LOL

I'm with you man, from now on when I think of La Marque I wont think Speed, Power, Pass or talent, two words will come to mind from now on ...NO CLASS. Starting in the parking lot, when the LM busses came rolling in . My wife and were sitting in the gas guzzling, politically incorrect, much painted up with Raider pride suv enjoying some tailgated boudan (which was great btw...super job guys!) Many of the LM player were pressing their faces against the windows of the busses, sticking out the tongues and yes, the classic ''Hawaiian Peace Sign'' was spotted more than once. During pre game warm ups the players taunted the Raider stands, during the singing of the Lumberton school song the LM mascot, the mascot...THE MASCOT!...held his nose and made hand gestures to the Lumberton crowd! Fifteen penalties for 150 yards against LM reflects their actions on the field. After their defeat, half the team as well as the coaching staff walked off the field instead of doing the customary handshake. I'm a parent of a kid that plays for Lumberton and if I had seen this kind of display from our kids and coaching staff I would be at the next school board meeting completely flipping out! Players represent the coaches, coaches the school, the school represents the city. My friends in La Marque, you have very good reason to hang your heads this morning...and its not because of the final score. Oh, by the way....WAY TO GO L-TRAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, if the tail gaters get busted there is a plus side...new Raidernation playoff T-Shirts : "Welcome to Bluegrass Country" on the front....and "Don't Taze Me Bro!" on the back[flash=200,200

Okay, I'm new to this board so somebody help me out here...''secret meeting''?, pops up quite a bit on the board. Is this something like ''Bush blew up the towers'' and other tin foil hat crowd stuff?...somebody 'splain' this one to me please!
