It's consistency, you can't build a winning program if you keep changing coaches every 3 or 4 years. Case in point, Lumberton has most often gotten hammered in football which is coached by the head coach who seems to be ousted every 2 or 3 years. It's not because of lack of athletes, look at Lumbertons' soccer teams the boys have had 2 maybe 3 coaches in the last 20 years and they are always in the playoff hunt, the girls are even better. These are the assistant coaches that help in football and run one of the other programs and they tend to stay through different administrations. They actually build programs. Your West Orange, Nederland, and PNG type programs keep the coaches for a long time and in a couple of cases promote from within when the head coach retires. It's like nothing changes so the boys come in knowing what to do and the coaches know best how to play their opponents, instead of worrying if he'll keep his job this year.

Bummer, hope someone keeps the site up to date then because I can't make it.

Nice, if this were for sure Lumberton is projected to win out. Depends mostly on the Silsbee game.

Name it the Bubba Smith Bashatorium.

I like the air horn as long as it is down by the end zone. The band needs to fire things up too.

Bud, just work at the pace that is comfortable for you.

I think this was more a case of the Lumberton league just happened to have the first case of running in to this.

Definitely glad you are doing better, our prayers have been with you. To be honest, we are chomping at the bit for your previews.

Good luck and our prayers are with you.

I don't see a problem with this especially since in a lot of cases the neutral field for southeast Texas seems to be in the Houston area nearer to the other districts we're playing. Seems they've always had a natural advantage over the teams over here, most likely because our kids or a bit tired from the trip.

If they ever run Babin off it better be due to something illegal. If it's due to a parent or parents then the school board should be run off for not having any balls. I've been in L-Town since before it was L-Town and I'm tired of the revolving door, a coach needs to be allowed to build a legacy. They shouldn't have run Creduer off. They shouldn't have ran Haynes off and they certainly shouldn't run Babin off.

Any updates on the girls score?

Double check this unless Livingston was a forfeit. I'm pretty sure our Lady Raiders are at 7 and 1 with a win against Ozen as the advantage.

One more, 3 missed PAT's by Lumberton with equal number touchdowns.

Lumberton takes it.

Great effort Raiders.

Go L-Town, get that train a rollin'.
