There are no moral victories but it helps a little I guess seeing 2 teams Central lost to and another one we just edged out moving on to the 2nd round.  I actually see 2 of the 3 moving on to at least round 3. Guess we know which district was the best this year.  Congratulations Titans, Bulldogs and Indians.

Super effort PIRATES . Congrats on a great season! Way to represent! 

I want to win em all to Scuba. But this is high school football. Lots of positives in this 9-1 season that was supposed to be a down year, that I think you are over looking. 
We may lose to PNG. They may lose to us. Either way PNG & Crosby are good programs. State Elite programs? no. But would 95% of communities trade places with us, I’d think so. 

Nah we will bounce back like we always do. Don’t start talking smack now when you didn’t all week. This game was a toss up just like everyone thought it would be. But I can tell you one thing in my opinion the better qb was on Crosby’s side of the field. 

Great game DOGS . Go get em next week you got this . Bigger they are harder they fall think Dawson NRG . 

lots of alcohol to be consumed before this one starts lol

And we were 1 point away from an undefeated season. Sucks doesn't it..lol

I honestly think Memorial is the best team in district. Nederland 2nd PNG 3rd and Central 4th but we all know how it ended up. It can be a funny game. You have to show up every night ready to play. 

Congrats Nederland good game 

Oh I still think we are..lol I haven't given up. RJ  deserves all the hype. I vented last night about the D and the coaches and running RJ into the ground. Today is a different day, and while the loss SUCKS, it's time for Crosby. Bounce back and get it going again. Maybe this knocked some sense into us. Neds got business to take care of. It's time to sweep 21 5A.

Just seems obvious to me that Faircloth is bound and determined to do it his way...He was convinced Roschon was going to beat us, and he ALMOST did. As effective as he is and was, look at how much better he could be if the football was put into someone else's hands. I know some wont like hearing this but the Dogs are year in and out more physical and smashmouth. On both sides of the ball. No shock and awe, just hands in the dirt football. JMO

Dogs natural status is Lead Dog . We got no brothers to look up to  ! They are all behind . Dogs by 5  . Still don’t  think Chiefs can line up & play smash  !

CRosby loss to NC. Crosby v PNG next week.

Bum Phillips Trophy back where it belongs.

Midcounty line still +5 Dogs with 50 % chance of reign ! Dogs rule home field advantage .

Ok that was pretty funny

Gonna be a line of ticked off Indians when the game is final. Ned 45-42

You PNG guys better stay away from any sharp objects this week, those big inflated heads of yours will explode!

Been here three years, Friday will be my second Mid-County Madness I've covered.
Realized it was a big deal (duh) when the students of the schools started talking trash on Twitter.
Was amazed how many of them actually care about the rivalry - at least on Twitter: 
This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up My high school in Phoenix won three state titles when I was in school and had one of the best - if not the best - rivalries in the state. Doesn't even come close to MCM.

35 - 17  Nederland!

I've been watching this kid since junior high and just wanted to do a little shout out to the greatest rusher in Pirate history, Haylon Leckelt. Haylon's been a four year starter with the Pirates, playing both running back and an occasional spot on the defense. Quoting the Vidor Vidorian:
"On the following play Haylon Leckelt got the call and gained 16 yards and a spot in the record book as he became the Pirates' all time rusher with 4494 career rushing yards, 14 over the previous record of 4478 yards held by Tim Hagler since 1982. Calling a timeout, players and coaches rushed the field to congratulate Leckelt on his record breaking accomplishment."
Enough said. Thank you Haylon for all the memorable plays over your career with the Pirates!! Good luck in the future and we all hope to see you get four more years running with the football for someone on Saturdays.

Agreed I've seen both . Seen WOS many years . This is one of there better teams ever . WOS d much quicker and the winning edge playing qb . I see a two score game but it's likely 14-0  

Congrats to Titans . You have a team this year that would have been good in your old district its good in this district . Playoffs won't be much different than your old class . Think George Ranch last year .  This year a lot of teams were down considerably from past years in this district  . Most years there is going to be a knock down drag out at the top with 4/5 pretty good teams you will compete not dominate and over a period of time it will even out  with most of those 4-5 playing potentially for a championship . You will always have good talent  from PA,  no argument there but most years you will now be able to compete , even when talent is down a little . Anyway I still expect that over 5  years or so Dogs will win more than they lose to the Titans . Overall the district becomes stronger so good luck in the playoffs represent us well , as I know you will .
