Good game Dawgs,  lets get ready for PNG.

[quote name="BrenhamFan" post="1062972" timestamp="1316745986"] Sounds like it will be a packed house.  Does I-10 run through Nederland? [/quote] I was going to give you detailed instructions, but its easier for me to google it.  You will take 69 South from Beaumont down to Nederland Ave.  Hamburger Depot is in sight of the stadium.

[quote name="VPirate" post="1062940" timestamp="1316744072"] bigdog,  LOL  your $1.00 is in the mail... ;)  I can't see how anybody from Vidor making some claim that Ned. is rival is in any way trying to earn respect, the way I see it the Pirates will earn respect by winning in district period. Vidor's claim to fame does not hinge on whether or not Ned. sees us as a rival......lol.  It really is entertaining that Ned. things so much of themselves that some rival affiliation with Ned. could enhanced Vidor's legitimacy.    :o [/quote] I'll be waiting by the mailbox. :)  It seems some posters feel that beating Ned would be a step in that direction.  Vidor wants to do what Ned has been able to do for the last 19 years, be consistent.

JV Nederland/Vidor score?

[quote]Wow, looks like Matthews is trying to soften us up and catch us offguard[/quote] LOL. Wont happen.

Boy the surprise is just trying to stoke the fires arent they?

[/quote] You know bigdog your probably right Vidor could very well be considerd the "Rodney Dangerfield of 20-4a" on this board, because lets face it Vidor doesn't have a winning tradition, everybody knows that and you'll get no argument from me on that subject, but in my opinion the disrespect and disdain is quite a bit more deep-seated than High School Football. But since this is a high school football forum allow me to express my thoughts about Vidor football. It is my opinion that if the Pirates are successful enough this year to make a deep playoff run, it could foster a culture that would be capable of changing not only how some view Vidor High school football, but the way the town of Vidor itself is perceived. A winning football team could be one of the means this town can maybe shake the stigma it has had to live with for so many years, a stain that most Vidor residents have tried to change one person and or one act at a time. These Pirates want to win for each other, their coaches and their city, but they also want to win for each and every player that in the past has ever put on a Vidor uniform, for those young men who worked hard every day at practice and gave 100% and left nothing on the field and may or may not have had winning seasons, but each one of those young men down through the years have left something for these present players to build on and if you listen close enough the pride they felt still echo's in the halls, and locker rooms and on the field at Pirate Stadium. And this 2011 team has begun to own that tradition of pride, they have vowed to gladly take up that burden and they will play every down not only with their strength, not just with their vision and dreams but with the strength and dreams and pride of every Pirate who has come before them, this is the attitude and resolve these present day Pirates are determined to bring to every game and If these young men can change the atmosphere of the football program, maybe that could be a catalyst that could in some small way help change the framework with which others use to judge the city or people of Vidor......Go Pirates [b]P.S. [/b]  As for trying to get respect, You won't read any of my post asking for anybodies respect......respect is earned not given.         But you can bet your bottom dollar the Pirates of 2011 will demand and earn their respect. [/quote] I do not disagree with your post at all,  I would venture to say almost all teams play for thier teammates, city and coaches.  Also ,  I don't intend any disrespect to your city , coaches or team, and you will not see me post anything otherwise.  A few years back, maybe but not now.  I think most Nederland posters see Vidor making thier claims as our rival as an attempt to gain respect.  Also, you used my signature line, that will be 1.00 per use please. :)

no, it just smacks of desperation for you and your fellow vidor posters to start 4 threads trying to get respect.

Vidor is the Rodney Dangerfield of 20-4a,  there is what 4 threads going now with them demanding respect.

Nederland's  record vs thier "rival" moves to 52-9-1 all time.

You see Vidor as the true rivalry that you don't want us to be By the way, having 11 straight as your screen name since that streak has been broken is like BISD keeping the Recognized sign in their front yard! [/quote] How many straight does Vidor have ?

Getting ready for the true rivalry a week early! :)

[quote name="bulldawg64" post="1060875" timestamp="1316477528"] brown and pryor should be back [/quote] What about  Raines?

Whats the news on the other injured players?  Who is coming back for this game?

I'm not sure who will come out on top, but this will be a shootout.

lol ::)

[quote name="mytwocents" post="1059895" timestamp="1316372721"] Does it matter? No it doesn't. We play Nederland away this year. And this year we will win. Who cares about what happened in the past. The past is the past. Lets keep it there and look forward to the game this year. GO PIRATES!!!!!! [/quote] I think the point being made is that Vidor has more problems with away games vs the Midcounty teams.  I don't think Ned has lost to Vidor at home in a long time, and I think the same could be said for PNG and possibly Central.

All right, this topic is getting way out of hand.  Stay on the topic without the bashing of players or posters or the thread will be locked.

Yeah, getting off at 5 and getting to a 7:00 is tough, especially if its an away game.  I perfer 7:30 games personally.

The Dogs will have Pryor and Brown back and will pound Vidor. [/quote] LOL.....this is hardly the first time Vidor's started off 3-0....you know when a dog barks a lot (as much as some Ned. fans about Vidor) it is usually scared of something!!!  :o ;D [/quote] and just how far did those 3-0 starts get you in those years? [/quote] I hate to repeat myself to dog fans.....but you seem about as sharp as the rest of em....so I'm going to type real slow so maybe all you dog fans that rode the "little bus" to high school can understand...this Vidor team is looking forward (not backward) they are focusing on taking care of business 1 game at a time. I would recommend the dog fans do the same. [/quote] You brought up the previous 3-0 starts.

Yall just can't stand the idea that Vidor considers yall a rival. There's just no possible way lol.
