Hey Guys,    We have been talking about another tournament and want to put it out there early.  We are thinkin about the Month of January.  We need to pick a place. I personally would like to have it on Toledo Bend since we had it at Rayburn last time......but I will let the votes decide.  It will be the same rules as last time and probably the same cost(will post when it is confirmed).  If anyone can get some sponsors for prizes that would be great.....just PM me or Vpbaseball#9.  Also, if you have any questions, ask away on this forum.    To clear up something from last time, you must be 18 to enter or have an adult(18 or over) in the boat with you. ******************************UPDATE**************************************************** [size=16pt] Tourney Jan 23rd [/size] Sabine Lake or Toledo Bend ........to be determined!!

[quote name="BigD 95" post="698103" timestamp="1257449060"] Raider 44 may not admit it, but they are so terrified of WOS WHITE over there, that they have been filming us since WEEK 1.  So when ya'll lose saturday, I want him to look those kids in the face, and tell him that he lost the game for them by not having them properly prepared.  You see 44, we are much better coaches than you give us credit for.  Once we seen ya'll filming us early on, we installed an offense just for this game.  We have practiced it for 7 weeks now, and definitely have it down to a science.  You have never seen us run it, but you have seen it run before.  Hint: Look in the mirror.  In fact, I think we run it better than ya'll.  SNOOP DOGGY DOG OFFENSE X 2..........  Hey ya'll started it, now let's see if ya'll can stop it.  I can't lie, I thought it was cute, so we took it and perfected it.   Good Luck!!!!!!!!!! [/quote] Thought it was "CUTE" I cannot wait for this game!! I think your bluffin' on the snoop dog offense!  ;)

(please!) :D [/quote] I will take up for lookouts comment. :) Mrs. QueenB why are u picking Nederland to run all over Lumberton? ??? Maybe because Lumberton took your Team out. :' :o My pee-wee got beat by WOS last week, :'( so I hope WOS wins this week. If WOS wins in the Superbowl, I got beat by the Super Bowl Champs. ;D ; Not By the Runner up. So Mrs B it make sense. Now..Having said that : Go RAIDERS run all over Nederland!!! ;D ;D [/quote] Has nothing to do with Lumberton kids.  If you would go back and read numerous comments I have made I always give the kids "props" and commend them for a job well done - no matter what team they play with!  The reason(s) I am rooting for Nederland also has nothing to do with the fact that Lumberton won against us so you can whipe that out of your mind too.  The reason I am rooting for Nederland is really no ones business but my own.  You root for who you want; I will root for whoever I want.  You make joking comments and I don't attack you.  I make joking comments and suddenly I'm singled out by being called a sore loser and such.  If you, or anyone else, thinks that just because I am female that I won't defend myself then you are WRONG!  The comment made was one to start trouble and I guess they accomplished it because now you and I are  having words.   Your comment, to me, was to continue the trouble.  [/quote] Queen, I did not take it that way at all.  I see no differnce in the way he talked to you versus the way we are all talking to each other.  Your other post seemed to take up for that....."the regulars".  What I got out of it was why he was backing WOS.

Thats what I'm talkin about!....Lumberton and WOS pulling together!! Can't wait for the drinks to start!!
