[quote name="dayton" post="1279960" timestamp="1348427308"] My heart says Vidor but my head says Nederland. Both are high quality programs and teams. I voted Nederland [/quote] I'm kind of in the same position. My instincts say Vidor, but my head is saying Nederland. I think it will all come down to this week's game. I picked Nederland to win, but if for no other reason than that I'd like to see Vidor make some history this year, I'm hoping the Pirates prove me wrong.

Port Neches-Groves Indians

Any updates? How is Nelson looking?

Wasn't there a game that went through 12 overtimes and ended with a score of 89-85 or something like that a few years ago? I want to say it was Nacogdoches or maybe Jacksonville.

In the late 40's or early 50's a new band director came in and changed the colors to black and gold. What year was Nederland established? [/quote] I believe Nederland started playing football officially in 1927. A couple of years later PN started playing and then a few more years and they became PNG and thus the start of MCM. [/quote] This has always been a point of confusion. I always hear Nederland folks saying they started playing football in 1927. PN-G's records indicate that the then-Port Neches Indians started playing football in 1925 and played Nederland four times altogether in 1925 and 1926 (Nederland won the first game in 1925 and then Port Neches won the next three). I also know from reading Dr. Ford's book that the student body picked the school colors and the team name in 1925. Anyone with a little more information have an explanation?

[quote name="PirateGirl4ever" post="1275884" timestamp="1348067106"] [quote author=mytwocents link=topic=103326.msg1275457#msg1275457 date=1348006754] Honestly since i haven't ever had to try and win against the pirates at the boneyard i would have to say png stadium. For some reason that stadium just gives us bad luck. [/quote] I would have to agree with that!!  The Reservation is always a hard place to get a win at.  I think that little Indian puts a voodoo spell on the field when he dances across it before the game and during halftime. [/quote] There's a reason our seasons don't go well when we do something to the stadium. The first time the stadium was renovated in the early '80s, we suffered a decade-long playoff drought. Then when we replaced the old stadium in 2008, we went 3-6 and didn't win a single game in the new stadium in its first season of operation. Did I mention we replaced our artificial turf field over the summer? Also, coaching changes typically have the opposite effect for some reason. See the early seasons of Lew Ford, Doug Ethridge, Danny Malone, Matt Burnett and Brandon Faircloth.

Maybe it's just because it's MCM, but Nederland has always been a hard place for PN-G to play. Outside of that, probably Vidor, which also holds the record for the hardest stadium to get in and out of. We've played them for their homecoming several times and I swear 105 in Vidor is a parking lot everywhere from 1442 to the Jasper County line before and after that game. They really come out of the woodwork for homecoming (not surprising because they put on an awesome show). My senior year, our bus convoy took an hour and fifteen minutes to get from the interstate off-ramp to the stadium, and that was with a police escort calling traffic to the side of the road. We weren't in the stands until about the second quarter. One of the hardest places to play from the perspective of someone in the stands is probably Livingston. Long drive, small stands, overly excited announcer, lots of mosquitoes and the concessions and bathrooms are on the other side of the field, which means you have to walk on the uneven gravel track to get there. It really sucks in the rain. Nice people though.

[/quote] We already did win a game dummy. It's funny you call us Weak Brook when you guys were the first to run away when bog bad Stump was in town. This our weakest team since 2004 and we would still stomp the Injuns this year. Tell Chief Faircloth to stop being scared and schedule a game so we can let the talking get done on the field. [/quote] The first to run away? That doesn't even make sense. PN-G hasn't been in a district with West Brook since we were 5A in the '90s. Nobody ran away from anything, PN-G just dropped down a classification as numbers changed. And what does this thread have to do with West Brook anyways?

Ya think they would give us any more points than they have too?? [/quote] What PN-G local paper are you referring to? The only PN-G paper I know of went out of business last year. [/quote] Try Port Author or where ever you get your local news "smoke signals I suppose" [/quote] Calm down, bud. I was just asking a question. It was reported over the radio that Summer Creek won this game 53-14, and that's where the score in this thread came from.

Somebody needs to go knock on some wood.

Summer Creek

If for no other reason than that I'd like to see this Vidor team make history with a district championship, I'd like to see Vidor win this game. That said, I think Nederland will win.

53-14 Summer Creek (F)
