Like I said, nothing against the young QB at all. Lumberton is lucky to have him. According to my sources which are from Lumberton and have kids on JV and Varsity, he was playing QB on JV, got brought up to varsity as a DB, then took over as a QB when the starter got hurt. Even against the lower level teams he couldn’t complete almost any passes. Idk if it’s his fault, the receiver’s fault or a combination of both. Truth is the stats say that Lumberton can’t complete the few passes they have thrown. Against Huffman, they sure could’ve used a more balanced attack in the 1st half. Why run the starting RB at all with the logic you gave? The few times he ran, did he run better than the backups? No. He’s not 100% is why. I wish both teams a healthy outing and a great game. It would be really cool to see that young QB from Lumberton to lead that offense to a victory and upset Splendora. But it would be just that. An upset. Good luck to both. I hope to see it in person.

Back on topic. My original post was to point out the extent that our silly PC Movement has taken us. It wasn’t to start a race war. It wasn’t to pit Democrat vs Republican. It was to point out that there is no middle ground anymore. Richard Pryor, who was a comedic genius, had a funny skit: Pryor mocking a white man speaking: “Why you black guys always hold your ‘thangs’?” Pryor as himself: “Y’all done took everything else!” Being a white male, I could take offense. But I don’t. It’s funny. It’s friggin hilarious! It’s very stereotypical, and it’s very funny. I have Conservative friends. I have Liberal friends. I have friends of many nationalities, races, religions and socio-economic backgrounds. They are all human. I respect them all. While we don’t always agree on subject matter, we all respect that we each have our own opinions. The ones that don’t offer that kind of open-mindedness usually don’t stay in my circle. If someone is hateful and makes horrible racist comments, I don’t have a problem with their job being at risk. But if someone poses a question or asks an ignorant question that is not intended to be hurtful or aggressive or malicious, then isn’t the reaction to slam them to the ground just as bad? It’s almost like burning books because the books don’t agree with societal standards. This PC movement is an overreaction to what may have started with good intentions. We are thwarting our own individualism and ideas and intelligence and everything else good that we possess!

1. Your pass defense has improved against sub par teams and you just lost your corner last week 2. Your running back is still hobbled. What did he do against BC? 3. You’re QB has come a long way. For a brought up JV sophomore, he’s a player for sure. No disrespecting the young man at all, but how many passes has he completed again? Are you still “alright on offense”, or do you just want to believe you’re alright on offense.

Diversity!

Yes. I was being a smart you know what.

Honestly, I just think the poor guy is just an outsider. PABorn...Pennsylvania Born. He’s obviously some snobby northerner who doesn’t like southerners. Probably some rich white guy who looks down on our kind. Perhaps we should show some southern hospitality and be nice... I’m sure he would appreciate that.

Are you from Pennsylvania, by chance?

We people? I’m not from Lumberton!

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say this poor slob did some time in Lumberton’s local jail.

Where does it state that?

I figured. It was an attempt to be comical. If you’ve ever been to a Lumberton game, everyone in the stands has puke blue on (except for the band - they wear black for some reason).

I sincerely apologize, but I think I missed something. Was someone caught shaving points or cheating?

What’s blue out

True. Good points. That was early in the season though. We shall see...

Whoever takes the bait is silly...

The issue is that Splendora does have a balanced attack and Lumberton does not. The Raiders can run. But if their run gets shut down, then they have no passing game to turn to. Splendors, on the other hand, can do both. Lumberton will have to pull out the stops if they want to beat Splendora. Splendora by 9 and take home the DC.

There is no end in sight...

Bridge City is better than Livingston.

Thanks for that post. I think lots of people think the same way as you (me being one of them), but they are overshadowed by the PC Movement that is unfortunately gaining speed...

Mad? A little. Frustrated! Terribly!

Look, I don’t care the first thing about Megyn Kelly’s show being cancelled. I’ve never even seen it. But to fire her over an ignorant opinion about someone painting their face white or black (for HALLOWEEN mind you) is ludicrous. The political correctness has gone WAYYYY out of bounds. I guess no more mimes allowed. I guess the movie “White Chicks” with some of the Wayans guys in it can never be seen again. Silver Streak with Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder where Gene Wilder is made up to be a black guy (boom box on his shoulder included) which is a really funny movie - can’t watch that anymore. Dave Chapelle - one of my favorites - dresses up as a white newscaster named Chuck Taylor - is that not funny anymore? Should it be too hurtful for us too watch now? And please don’t even get me started on #metoo. I feel like I can’t even say good morning to a female co-worker without being fearful of losing my job. I know there are horrible prejudices that exist between many races, religions, sexes, etc. There is no condoning any of it either. It’s not right. But neither is a witch hunt on anyone who doesn’t agree with your ideology! I’m talking about Left/Right, Male/Female, Asian/Black/Hispanic/White and any other groups we can put against each other! I’M SO FREAKIN SICK OF IT!!!! (I hope I don’t get fired or exiled over this post)

No...but I got an idea on the Varsity score. Big Ned by 14+ !

Lumberton JV

Dang! They haven’t lost yet!

From what I’ve seen I would agree. Gotta get that arm up to speed. He runs tough for a sophomore qb though!
