[quote name="Pirates34" post="1128802" timestamp="1322110109"] What is the point in this? It's obnoxious and pointless. [/quote] He's just trolling. Apparently, they also don't teach respect and class in Angleton, especially if stomping on a pirate flag at practice is condoned by the coaches. As I said earlier, go Pirates.

[quote name="Wildcat32" post="1128794" timestamp="1322109540"] Spell it right . I have never even heard of these  backwoods "want a bes" [/quote] They must not teach research skills in Angleton. ::)

[quote]and far more more intelligent than you .[/quote] Says the guy who can't even spell "Vidor" right. ::) Go Pirates.

[quote name="NDOMAKONG" post="1125900" timestamp="1321835892"] Actually, the times that Nederland was bounced in the first round were the anomaly Bamakid.  For over a decade, Nederland took deep playoff runs, winning first round playoff games for what at that time was one of the states longest active streaks at 11. [/quote] I know Ned's had it good with Neumann. Just throwing a little jab back at 'em. ;D

[quote name="outanup" post="1125309" timestamp="1321801085"] Ned beating Stratford is an upset? [/quote] I probably should have clarified that one a little better. I actually didn't have that game originally listed as an upset; I modified the post to add it later. I posted the same thing on Facebook and two points were brought to my attention that convinced me to add it for good measure. First of all, while Nederland had a solid advantage over Houston Stratford going into the game, the game went into double overtime and Ned barely escaped with the win. The surprise there is that Nederland didn't have it in hand early on as I (and I think most people) expected. I guess you could say that, from that perspective, the game's outcome is more surprising than it is upsetting. Second, Nederland didn't get washed out in the first round of the playoffs for the third year in a row. In that sense, every game Ned wins in the playoffs could be considered an upset. ;) ;D I said in a post a while ago that Nederland has the defense to go deep. The question is Nederland's offense. I guess the Stratford game just about proved me right. More points were scored in overtime than in regulation. With that said, I hope Nederland can put it together and get to the Regional Final.

Iowa State beat Oklahoma State Baylor beat Oklahoma USC beat Oregon Ozen beat Brenham Vidor beat Montgomery Nederland beat Houston Stratford Cal may very well pull it out against Stanford (knock on wood) I think Satan needs a thick winter coat.

I'm going to try to make it. We're almost definitely going to be at the Vidor game.

"The Montgomery football team is right where it wants to be." Maybe if they want to be on the basketball court. ;D

You know, I was conflicted in the Pick 'ems this week. My gut kept telling me Vidor would win but my head said there was no way. Now that Vidor's won, my gut's still saying Vidor and my head has fallen silent. Vidor has never been a team that has just sat down and quit, and that's never been more true than this year. After the season Vidor has had, I hope you guys go and win it all. And if you keep playing like you are, you just might have a shot. Scalp 'em, Roll Tide and Go Pirates.

It all goes along with the Indian spirit at PN-G; what it means to compete as an Indian with confidence and you get that special feeling when competing with your teammates. “It’s all about teamwork.” [/quote] The Rock-A-Noos are serious about keeping the meaning of the word secret. They won't budge.

The only reasonable explanation short of foul play I can think of is that he was wobbly, fell when crossing the tracks, hit his head and knocked himself out. If so, that's a very unfortunate (albeit seemingly unlikely) series of events. In any case, it's a tragic event and I don't think anyone knows enough to say either way.

They're maybe a mile south of the interstate and eventually turn north to cross under it.
