Hey AAW, I respect your opinion on lots of things, but I’m on the fence about 4 teams going vs only 2. I see good on both sides of the argument. If you have time, could you elaborate on why we should not have 4 teams (other than in a 4 team district, where everyone goes...). Thanks ahead of time.

I feel sorry for Carthage. Getting upset by the Train is gonna hurt them for a loooooong time. 😎

Are those official? I see some mistakes, I believe.

PM me his name, if you don’t mind.

1986

Interesting fact. Similar game in 1985. LCM was leading the Raiders 14-0 at the 1/2. Just like this past week. It was cold and started sprinkling on the fans and parents. It was a mass exodus. The majority of the crowd started emptying the stands to go home - even parents of players. As usual, because we were “Lumberton “, even the closest to us counted us out. I remember being so po’d at everyone leaving. I got on one of the benches just before kickoff yelling at all of them to go home. No telling what all I yelled, but I was mad. So were a lot of the other players. We came back and won that game 27-23 I think. Since then, I never throw in the towel on a group of football boys like our team in 1985. We were a lot like our current team. What we may have lacked in some areas, we made up with tenacity, our love for each other and our competitive spirit. Stay til it’s over y’all. Those boys appreciate it whether even they know it or not. Not throwing shade on you ‘Oldtimer, your comment just brought back a memory...

Let us hope. Although has some speed and good athletes, I feel like the lack of discipline in their program lessens their effectiveness.

Much appreciated. I posted earlier, that #13 was something else...

You agitate almost as well as I do! Lol.

The only thing LCM did after the half was got outplayed. They became complacent thinking they had it in the bag.

I almost said that but someone told me differently. Thx!

That sounds familiar...

Does that mean that Little Ned, et. al. are the most disappointing? 😳

Good man.

Thank you. Thank you very much. (That was in my Elvis voice...)

I feel like the lunch lady servin up some crow. Dang this is fun! Sorry. Don’t get much chance to do this.

Not!

I’m glad you were wrong about this part.

You wrong...

Does that mean you’re saying they didn’t want it?

Nope. They only lost by 6. Ohhhh, Did you mean they would win by 14 or more? Sorry, my bad.

Carson Stinnet scored the winning TD. I know Briton Alfaro caught a TD pass. I think Stinnet scored the tying TD too.

Awesome job boys. I give credit to those kids who never gave up, who never hung their heads, who stayed in the fight. I give credit to the Coach who went out of the box and put faith in that scrappy group of kids who refused to give up. Hats off to number 13 from LCM. Almost too much to handle. Hell, I was almost ready to hang my head down after the 1st 1/2. It takes a lot of character and fortitude to come back and win a game like that when it feels like nothing’s going your way. Great job RAIDERS!
