That 2016 Pirate team was special. Starting the season with a blowout loss to Barbers Hill, 40-6. Mathews changed alot of things up after that loss and we're able to get a share of that title, beating a really good Memorial team. Having a Quirante kid helped too! 😂

Tomorrow’s scrimmage- in Vidor or WOS, and what time?

Didn't it rain in that BH game and caused some kind of a ruckus from their higher-ups about the field?? Or maybe im thinking about Ned and BH.

Oh yeah, I remember BH posted a tweet about the playing surface and band members losing shoes when they were marching.🤣 I think that was the starting point for Vidor to get a turf field.

As I remember, it was the BH Supt who made the derogatory comments. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest his underwear.

Yes, Coached by the miracle worker, Edgar Payne.  The 62 Team went 0-10.  Enter Coach Payne and in 63 went 6-4.  Then 64 13-0-1.  As I remember, Coach Payne retired due to health problems.  Miracle worker?  Absolutely.

12-0-1, semifinal game vs San Marcos was tied 21-21, but the Rattlers advanced to play Palestine in the championship game with a 5-4 edge in penetrations.  Second tie breaker was first downs and the third was total yardage.  Vidor had a significant advantage in both of those.                                                                                                 The 2011 Montana Quirante led team would be a close second IMO.

Fixing to be headed to the stadium; This hot, humid, weather makes me realize I need a Pirate shirt that isn't in black.😂

But I haven't seen anything about the scrimmage being live streamed through, but I'll try and give updates the best I can.

Thanks guy!

Yup, lonestar is where I got it from and its definitely not 100% accurate. But yeah, the 90's were not good to us at all. '98 is the year we went 1-9, 1999 was Mathews first year and we went 5-5 that season and stunned WOS that year, 21-17. But good luck to your team as well, looking forward to the Silsbee game next Friday!

WOS up 7 to O gales on the run

Looked like WOS got down the field fairly easily for an opening drive TD but what would I know I was stuck in the concession line. Had to start the year off right with a chili, cheese nachos with jalapeños and a Dr Pepper. I did watch the Pirates go nowhere with a quick 3 and out punt. The QB is very small this year, he’s a lil fella.

    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 
    • Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
