LHS must be having flashbacks to days when they had ties in high school football or is typing while asleep. It's okay LHS, sit back, relax and your memory will come back to you or you will wake up, whichever it is.

They are getting a lot of negative feedback but they are going to push ahead to get what the people don't want. Go figure.

I had hoped that Nederland could have played SLC, Lufkin and then Odessa Permian but when Neumann tried to get them, he found that Lumberton and Coach C had beaten him to the punch. ;D

"Make it"? I am assuming that you mean they can compete and go to the playoffs on occasion. They haven't even shown that they can "make it" in 4A yet. Lumberton has however shown that with 1,400 students, they can compete very well with many of the small 3A schools.

Well, it was one or the other so they opted for the other.

If you would have been hunting with me from the mid 70's to the early 80's you might have been burned out. ;D Back in the days of the 10 bird limit, two other guys and I used to bring back 30 birds quite often.

Better chance of an asteroid hitting.

PN-G whining again.. you bet. Already used to it. ;D

The "what if" people. Nederland would have gone once as the district champion even though it was a tie for first place. Nederland would have gone on point spread. I wonder if PN-G would like to have Nederland's current 11 playoff streak or if they would reject it by saying that it didn't come by way of district championships. Heck, I bet that if PN-G gets third place this year, Matt Burnett will turn it down and forfeit since they didn't make it in first place. If it is so easy making the playoffs under the current format, I wonder why so many teams in the district find it hard to make the post season consistently, if at all. ;D

I was worried that a day would pass with a new Lumberton thread. Now I can rest easy.

Everyone knows that this thread is a joke but I have a confirmation that Lumberton was scheduled to scrimmage the Dallas Cowboys at Valley Ranch.

Still on standby. The guy that had the spot at First Point was supposed to get that south Texas lease. He was going to hold his confirmation until he was sure that he got that lease. He still hasn't gotten back with us to say if he got the lease or not. According to him, it was a done deal, just waiting to sign on the dotted line. And I wait, and I wait....... I already have my vacation set on those dates.

For a challenge it is definitely deer hunting. While just killing a doe for meat is not that hard, killing a nice buck can be very difficult. There is not a lot of challenge to killing ducks although the conditions now can be a bit tougher than 20 years ago. There are no real trophy ducks to be had. Sure you can mount them and one might be a bit prettier than another but it is hard to tell one greenhead/pintail from another once they are mounted. Which is more fun depends on what you like to do. If you like to pull the trigger and retrieve your game, then you had better bird hunt. If sitting for many hours alone for a single shot is your pleasure, then obviously it is deer hunting. I have done both many times and had fun on most occasions. At one time I spent way more time duck hunting. Now I only hunt deer. When I was younger I loved going into the marsh and setting up. Now, even if I was offered a hunt, I am not sure that I would go. It just doesn't have the appeal that it once did. I have had many more successful duck hunts, killing hundreds of ducks and geese. Maybe I just got burned out on it and it doesn't hold the challenge that it once did. Both are great sports and have appeal for different reasons. My youth was filled with duck hunts and now middle age is filled with deer trips. I think that I have changed from having the need to pull the trigger many times and go out to get the game to enjoying the quiet of the woods and waiting for that one chance at a shot.

Let's see, he said "about 1987" so I will go with '86-'88. 1986 Nederland 21-12 1987 Tie 14-14 1988 Nederland 29-0

The last time that I checked, telephoning (shocking) was an illegal way to fish. ;D

No.

Pretty much. If you want it, you can get it. The Smalltown, USA stuff is naive and doesn't exist. I sure wish it did but anyone that believes that is kidding himself.

Speed doesn't help if you are running down the field with the ball on the ground behind you.

Whew!! It has been almost 24 hours since a different "How good is Lumberton" type thread has popped. I was getting worried. ;D

After you add the pork for the sausage, yeah, she is heavy...now.

I had one want under my ladder stand like that this weekend but I let him go hoping for a larger one. Then I shot a doe. ;D
