[quote name="82 5A State Champs" post="813225" timestamp="1276730510"] I was thinking the same thing. Shouldn't the fact that it was built on a rice patty be your first clue to the unlevel ground? One would think that after all the money that has been spent on this thing, something as elementary as taking soil samples wouldn't have been missed. Geez, they should have let LOCAL contractors build the thing instead of subbing it out to the minority contractor out of Houston! >:( My bad, they're out of New York! [/quote] You make a good point.  Someone that used to the SE Texas gumbo around there would have been better suited for the job.  My mom ran into the same issue hiring a Lum company out to do her pool.  They said that they didnt realize the clay was so thick down there!!  I guess they were used to the red dirt in lumberton.   Anyway, since BISD is running this , I am not terribly surprised.

I would say Forney proved himself in clutch situations.

It sounds like you are volunteering liltex. :)

A mid-range 4a, I think. around 1700 with the two schools

Well, you can't use the "no respect" motivation this year, soulja. :)

Welcome!  You picked an appropriate screen name! :)

[/quote] I agree, and the defense has looked much better than the last few years, but still some room for improvement!

Yep, I have run into local people all over the US. There is a family from PA that goes to my church here in AR.

Yes. Stay on topic please.

I believe Ned shut down livingston down last year also.

Lost 7-0. I would dearly love some stats from that game. [/quote] Yep , should of taken the field goals.  That game still makes me sick.  I would go back even farther, to 1953 and a 3 point loss to Garland.  Also in 1961 , the 6 point loss to Dumas.  Two state titles that we could have added!! It was 2000. And yes this would be my pick as well. I dont have exact stats in front of me, but If memory serves me correctly, Nederland was in BC territory like 12 times that night, and inside the redzone like 5 times. Instead of taking field goals when we should have, we opted to go for it and got stuffed everytime. I still think we scored on the second to last play of the game but I guess only that one official will ever know for sure.. [/quote]

Cool! Two games in the new stadium.

Desthion, you are referring to Forney who played QB. I would sleep on Ned being in the top 3 if we can avoid injuries and the D can step it up a notch.

I for one have been tough on vidor in previous years regarding their schedule. I do want to give them props for attempting a better non-district lineup. Tejas, pipe down or you will be sitting the bench.

You sure about that? :)

I think he was trying to say the future looks bright, not putting down the current varsity team.

Ok, gentleman and ladies, if this thread continues with the name calling and personal attacks it will be locked.

Ned ran three QBs most of last year depending on the play and situation. I wouldn't say that we had a "starter" last year.

Yep

So whos on here right now whining about the west end and the haters??

they would need more than 4500 parking spots for some games around here.

Something with Willie Ray Smith Should have been the Name.,.He Put Beaumont on the Map, And Made us The Football Capital of the World.. Did Carrol Thomas Even play football [/quote] I agree to making the name WRS and at least to the putting Beaumont on the map part of that.  An that would have been a name that probably 90% of the people in Beaumont could agree on.

That guys ego knows no bounds ::)

Its going to be tough to drop it with Reliant right next door.

[quote name="D3zii" post="789993" timestamp="1271217999"] Umm..I know everone wants to believe that Because their JV was Really good their Varsity team will be the same way. But im here to tell you, IMO just because your JV teams were so good dosent mean your Varsity team will be all that next year.. 1. This is Varsity. Everythings Faster, Bigger and Stronger. The Team you whopped up on is working that much harder to do the same to you.. 2. Some players may respond Diffrent to the Varsity level.. You may say Football is football no matter who you play, But why do you think You get draft Bust every Year.. 3. You never know What Juniors from last Year Played Varsity but didnt start, maybe thats why the JV wasnt so good.. Ever Thought about that.. IDK that was just On my mind. Now im not saying they wont be good..Im just tired of seeing Our JV, was like this or we went undefeated on JV. Not just on here, Every were [/quote] What he said...  8)
