I haven't seen Silsbee this year, but I believe in the BOBCATS ;)

[quote name="rip2506" post="786641" timestamp="1270577900"] This  must be a really tired subject.... just Myself, Newbie and setxgal even interested in making a comment. Newbie you made some very good points..... I believe what I meant to say was that it would be common knowledge or practice that the best players would play for one club.... We will see what happens. Thanks All for the thoughts [/quote] One thing we can hope for - that the great soccer players we are from this area will come back and coach teams and help increase the love for the sport. For so many years it has been moms and dads (which are great!) that have coached and very few people who have actually played the game. (I also suggest people who love and care about the sport to get active in the soccer clubs and their boards. )

great list Gabe! I think most of those are common household names.....wait...Is that just our household??? ;D

LW tried to play on a Houston team. The late nights and drive were a lot.  I congratulate your efforts and determination in continuing to drive to Houston several times a week. We have had this debate about what it will take to be on the level and compete with Houston for some time now. ......and still no real change in the way we do things around here.  I haven't been active with the clubs in tha last 5 or so years, but back then, there was so many power struggles and in fighting between the different clubs that it made it hard to see 'the big picture'. Hopefully that is not what is still holding back the area.

OU sucks more than the MONDAY after a 3 day weekend...and this Monday is baaaddddd!!!

[quote name="oodooo" post="786228" timestamp="1270482658"] I'll agree with Rip on this one, unification would be great in this area because you would get the level of competition and also a mingling of players that normally wouldn't happen. All of which seem like benefits, unless there's something I'm overlooking. In my opinion the whole Super Gold thing the B.E. does is a good thing, but in years past hasn't been the most credible way to award top players in the area as a whole, per se. Because, no disrespect to the B.E. but it doesn't cover soccer like it does with other sports say baseball, football, or basketball so it seems that they base it off of coaches opinions or whatever information they get, which can include this forum. All said when I played and the players from across the league I've talked to the Super Gold team seems like a consolation prize at times. There's my two cents, now let's see who will crucify it. [/quote] I agree...... mostly  ;). Soccer is slowly becoming more main stream in our area, but we have to compete with other sports(basketball, baseball and softball). The BE (RC) and other news organizations do their best to cover the sports, but they are limited due to the number of people on staff and you can't be at more than one place at a time. Due to this fact, the BE can not see all the games and know all the players. Sometimes these acknowledgements mean more to the parents than the kids ;)

Good job rc. We have a lot of talent in this area and it is great to see it recognized. And of course, yea Roo!

These r great seats. Love the atmosphere. ;)

Congrats to everyone who made it. And to my Roo, we are so proud of you. You have played hard all 4 years and what a great way to end your high school career.  You have had great teammates who have helped you shine. You have played with heart and great determination.  :-*

[/quote] Great article and I am trying...I am learning all kinds of stuff :) [/quote] Why is it called a 6-4-3 double play? ;) [/quote] Gee joey...duh....Cause the ss throws to 2nd then on to 1st for the double play.

Congrats on a great season lumberton

[quote name="JoesBros" post="783601" timestamp="1269878087"] Well IMO if your going to cover a team from beginning to end your going to want them to be successful. After spending two years with this team I have developed great relationships with everyone out there and appreciate the oppertunity that Setxsports and Vidor has given me. [/quote] understatement of the year ::) ::) have a great broadcast, buddy!

roo had her last high school game in soccer, losing in the playoffs...that sucked!!!! but OU still sucks more

[quote name="fiveoclocksomewhere" post="783571" timestamp="1269874613"] Congrats to the Nederland and Lumberton girls for giving 100 percent in the game. Like Shark said- It was the best four bucks you could have spent Friday! So what if Waco waxes Lumberton tonight. It has been a fun and exciting ride for the Lumberton players. They were supposed to be rebuilding. Instead they are in round 4. I am a Lumberton parent and have club coached most of the girls on Lumberton and several of the girls that are on the Nederland team.  I can tell you that these are all some terrific kids and they don't get nearly as bitter or P.O'ed about the game(s) as some of us fans do!  Awesome effort by both teams.    [/quote] Totally agree. Good Luck to y'all tonight. and thanks for all the support you gave roo in all the years you coached her...I miss that team :'(

[quote name="sharkfutbol" post="783532" timestamp="1269869205"] I can bet the newspaper man counts each time the keeper touches the ball.  A ball lobbed in as a cross is not a shot.  And I would believe that is some of his or her counts.   Nederlands las defender  ;)[b] for ninety percent [/b] of the game kept lumberton from getting any quality looks at goal and for sure lumberton only had the six shots.  Nederland had several balls played in their keeper picked up but I do not think htey were shots.  Again what a  fun game to watch. [/quote] I am going to have to say it was more like 98% ;)

[quote name="Rebel2" post="783507" timestamp="1269866384"] Frogger09..........shots on goal 24-4?  I want some of want ever you are smoking because it has to be great. [/quote] Per the PANEWS, Nederland took  14 shots and lumberton took 7

Lauren is a great team player. Good luck to her and the Lady Bulldogs tonight. ;D
