It's gotta be tough to be a Lumberton fan these days and you deserve credit for not wearing the proverbial paper bag over your head. This was normal for the Raiders when I was a kid in Jasper and it was nice to see you guys have some success in recent years. I hope things get better soon...

That is a million dollar question for all Raider fans. Why is that when a team is down their supposed faithfull fall by the way side and wait for the team to pull it together. The kids need community support through thick and thin. Raidergirl keep the candle lit the L-Train will be coming through the tunnel soon with the horn blasting and light burning bright.

I know how all the raider fans feel. I played for Vidor in 07-08 season for those Vidor fans that remember that season. I had fans tell me that was the first year they didn't buy season tickets because of how bad we were doing and everybody was blaiming matthews for everything but in reality it was that the players just didn't care. we had alot of players that just messed around at practice and just were not very disciplined, not to say that they were all like that, but we also had alot of younger players that were sophmores. We had about 10 to 12 seniors and the rest were sophmores. We went 2-8 that year. That was the year Lumberton had alot of success. The next year came around and the players matured and learned to play together better and had better discipline. They didn't make the playoffs the next year but they did a heck of alot better. Everybody stopped bad mouthing matthews after that and we started seeing more fans. There were those fans that did stick with us through thick and thin so don't think that I am bad mouthing all the vidor fans but I love pirate football and I have gone to games since I was little and I didn't even have people that I was there for. My brother Jeremiah chandler #75 plays on the o-line and I am so proud that he gets to experience the playoffs, something that I only wished I could have been apart of. The fans of Vidor is a big part of vidors success. I wish I could be there for my pirates but I live in Florida now I would appreciate updates as much as possible. I believe Lumberton will bounce back and I also hope that Vidor continues the great game playing that they show now and make a habit of going to the playoffs as well as lumberton. May all the kids that play High school football have the best years of their life and have fun with no injuries. I know that I did even though we had an off year. Its the game that I loved playing and the town that I was representing and hearing those fans screaming as we ran out on the field is why I loved it so much. GO PIRATES AND GOOD LUCK TO LUMBERTON ON THIS SEASON AND TO ALL THE SEASONS TO COME.

For that 2 year stint the LTown fans were the most obnoxious fans. They demanded respect and most of us said roll out more than one or two winning seasons and youll earn it. Well low-n-behold, there all gone now!  Raidergirl keep up the good fight. Love the support you show for your hometown. Your a welcome NDN fan anytime! Hopefully for your sake the Baby Blue and Red will ride high again someday soon, of then the looney raider fans will be back in full force. :)

Those days are long and gone . Don't see them being good for a while... Especially if they don't change some major stuff on O and D .

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling.
