Tackling by instinct? It can be just as dangerous as a face mask but you are more than willing to ban that. Why one and not the other? The NFL has banned it as being dangerous but you think high school kids can pull it off without injury. Interesting.

It is for a topic of conversation. It is no different from this forum. Why have a forum?

He was talking about a streak that ended in 1984. I am not that good in math but I think that is more than 8 years. Correct me if I am wrong. ;D

You don't get to return a muffed ball to an imaginary spot on the field. A recovery of a muffed punt is a dead ball at the spot of the recovery. If the impetus of the ball carries it into the endzone then it is a touchback.

I guess what you are saying then is that PN-G is open to the big play? The only way Nederland scored 40 points on Central was big plays and interception returns. I am fairly certain that the points counted all the same and you don't get penalized for making a long drive all in one play.

Yep, still a long way to go.

Great streak. It is interesting that PN-G has to go back more than a generation to have something noteworthy to talk about. The fact that they have been owned in the 2000's seems to have escaped them.

I'm too old to play either side.

Good place and well lit. It is better during the weekdays with not quite as many people fishing.

He couldn't squeeze all of the scores in and had to randomly remove a few. Something special about those years you want to bring up? ;D

Reality? All I heard last year and in the beginning this year is that Nederland won't be the same without Mosley to hold them up. Last year at this time Nederland is 1-4 and 0-2 in district with Mosley. This year without him, our downfall as predicted is......

It looks like he is about to stumble and fall down backwards. Now that I can believe. ;D

I said in another thread that Vidor's two district loses were to teams that were a combined 10-0. The schedule is just luck the way it falls but Vidor happened to draw two opponents that were playing some of the best football at the moment.

I think you are trying to be way to philosophical. In the scope of life it is great for many kids to have a chance to compete in team sports, win or lose. As far as the football seasons go, you can't tell me that players, coaches and fans don't have disappointing seasons. The higher the expectations, the more the disappointments can be.

I don't think this is the game of the year but it sure is looking like an important one. The last day of district also has PN-G @ Dayton and Nederland @ Lumberton. It might be a wild finish for this one.

Sounds like the game score. ;D

.... or this one.

If Lumberton starts of at 3-0 with two of the wins coming from Dayton and Central then I think it will remove any doubt of how good Lumberton is. It is one thing to upset a team by one point. It is anther to repeat the performance. Vidor beat Nederland last year as has been brought up many times. It sure didn't change anything in the way of the district playoffs. Nederland went back to the playoffs and Vidor fell to a bottom tier team again. Beating Dayton is great but the playoff race didn't stop with one 1 point victory. Following that win up with beating Central will show everyone that Lumberton is a serious playoff contender.

The play calling is the head coach. If a head coach doesn't like what the offensive coordinator is calling then he needs to correct the problem.

Can a part of a school district force the forming another independent school district? In effect they would be deannexing part of the district to form another. If that is not legal by Texas state law, then it is a moot point as far as an independent Kenefick high school. If the Dayton Independent School District chooses to make another high school, then that is their option. Beaumont has gone from six, down to two and then back up to three. Port Arthur went from three to one. I have no knowledge of anything that goes on politically inside of DISD but I don't believe that they will voluntarily split a 4A school with 1,400 students down to two 3A schools or maybe a 2A and a 3A. It just won't happen as there is no point.

1. Nederland will not go 5A. 2. Nederland and PN-G will not consolidate.

Mathematically Central might not have to win. Realistically, if Central loses to go 0-2 then they would have to go 5-0 the rest of the way and then hope for the best.

No but they will be testing for Budweiser.

I don't think it is a matter of owing anyone anything. I personally think that it is interesting listening to what coaches have to say. It does not have to be and should not be confrontational. That is why it could not work on an open forum such as this. There has to be screening of questions. On KFDM's Sports Extra on the weekends, I like to listen to what the coaches have to say. I am a Nederland fan and most of the coaches on there have nothing to do with Nederland as far as being a foe. That does not mean that it is not interesting to listen to. Having coaches answer questions has nothing to do with owing anyone an answer. It has a lot to do with people that are just interested in sports talk.

...or as Johnnie Cochran would say, "If you will not quit, you must commit"
