That's the worst I've seen Nederland look since... ever... They just looked inferior. Wasn't pretty. I guess we all saw this coming but I hope they can start reloading in the future threw youth programs such as the last group that came through there.

Could this be a state-bound team?

How are teams looking with their new squads? It's time to get this forum kicked back up. [/quote] We have been keeping it warm for ya with the Collegiate stuff. lol [/quote] Sorry. I mean "kicked back up with High School topics or Setx topics."

[/quote] Well FF,  Not sure if the Lady Indians or better or as good as the teams listed...because we will not get a chance to play them since most on that list is eliminated.  I can however at least say, we are better than Dawson since we defeated them earlier in the year at our tournment 2-0 without one of our key players. ;)  Thanks for the good luck against Midway...Our girls are Ready! [/quote] Just because you beat a team once at the beginning of the year does in know way make you better than them. I'm getting sick of your ignorant posts.

And what were your scores against nederville?

It was Vidor's senior night tonight and it just didn't turn out right for them. I thought the game was pretty even and if Newcastle and his pirates would have been able to stop Wagner, it could have been a different story. I think this was the longest soccer game in UIL history. I only got to see Nederland's goal because the one moment I get up to go the bathroom I hear that Vidor scored off a beauty direct kick. It was a clean quality game by both sides, rather large fan support, and a great game of soccer. Vidor has really come a long way this season and I think Newcastle has a lot to do with that. I've known him for a while now and the guy is a class act.

Way to promote yourself. Thats what winners do!

Did Nederland have injuries or failures or something??? I was at the PNG and LCM game which was my "Game of the Week." Anyone have any details of the game?

[quote name="Ftballfan11" post="966854" timestamp="1297826039"] Very even game throughout the entire game, Nederland's goal came from a deflected ball off of the ref that resulted in a break away, great shot though. The refs were evenly bad in this game. They were terrible all night, there were 3 or 4 deflections off of the ref when a player passed the ball because he just wouldn't move out of the way when people got relatively close. They called an offsides on PNG that looked completely on sides (from my angle) and resulted in a great goal but was obviously called back. Any other opinions on this game? [/quote] like you said, "evenly bad". the same thing happened down on nederlands end. fast break from wagner to salenga for the goal but then called offsides. png was good at pressing nederland's threatening players with numbers and it looked as if the middle was flooded with purple. both defenses looked solid! good game by the keepers. nederland had one big crowd! clean good soccer game for the most part. well worth the 3 dollars.

[/quote] i can't imagine them letting a soccer game occur there, but who knows. [/quote] Why would they not? The field is turf and marked for soccer already ???

Did anyone else play yesterday? I want some scores :D

Last year it was Colton Romero. This year it is James Trabing. Its sad that this board has come to this. I use to enjoy reading it when Bonmot, coachl, aires, bullets, shark, and the others were always on here. Now I have to read kids horsing around. Ridiculous

My two cents of the soccer alumni games: These games were started as a way to show how the present teams compared to the past teams. They were taken semi-seriously by the alumni and seriously by the present team. This worked well for a while and all was dandy but recently the games have turned into a joke. No one takes them seriously, its a bunch of joking around by the alumni and is just a waste of time for the present team to be getting better. It is also one more game that someone could get hurt in. Of course, someone could get hurt in any game, but its probably better to get hurt in a game that means something that not. People seem to think that these games were designed strictly for the alumni and I'm sorry to say that high school coaches are looking way further than to be worrying about there old players getting to play again. No offense to anyone but the alumni have graduated, they (we) are not in any point of focus and until the game becomes vastly less competitive (which the opposite is happening) I just don't think coaches will even take the time to schedule alumni games any more. Is it for the better or worse? IDK.. Cheers.
