I guess this has been the point of my post today. I can respect what you said. Just also wish it could be more about the game itself than all the extra.

Ok I get ALL of that, and trust me if were to have "Trump Money" I can guarantee you those issues would be addressed. However that wasn't the point of my post. It was in response to some of your fan base with all the extra talking about uil numbers etc.

You sir just made my point. I'm not everyone else either. Yet, some of your fan base and even yourself has group me(at least I feel that way) into the "thumbing my nose" category. When in fact I came onto the board after the "high school football game" and gave props AND even asked about the well being of young Mr Perkins. TO NO AVAIL.

THUMPING noses? Dude did you seriously type that? I know and understand its a "rivalry" but, all I've read from some of the Bulldog faithful is that you have won 6 MCM in a row and that #7 is coming the last game of the season.

I didn't mean anything negative about my 7y/o going to Vidor.

He already has a Uncle Rob.

Sir I'm not sure who your post was directed towards but I will respond. (in underlined bold) Nederland has been the "best" in this district for 5 years. I teach my 7y/o that if he wants to be the best, he has to BEAT the best.

No sir, I didn't specifically call YOU a whiner. Just SOME from you fan base. I simply asked you becuase you said something about being equal. So let me ask you, which seems to be CLOSER to "equal" NS 4600 - PAM 2200 =2400 difference PAM 2200 -NED 1580= 620 difference

Dude my 7 y/o has a better chance of becoming a Pirate than he has of becoming of last Fridays opponents. At least the only thing I've read from the Pirates are "bring it on."

Can you give me a rough estimate of Nederland enrollment numbers?

Ok I wasn't going say anything but I've gotten tired of all of the "WHINING." So far it's "PAM enrollment this, PAM enrollment that" to that I say BLAH, BLAH, YADA, YADA. That was the same thing we were saying the past three to four years when we were taking it on the chin from NS, LP and DP. Last season we played not one but TWO "STATE CHAMPIONS" from 6A and 5A. George Ranch had a bigger enrollment than PAM did. I've sat and watch SOME say bigger enrollment means we should dominate. I also say to that BLAH BLAH YADA YADA. What means we should dominate? EXPECTATIONS, WEIGHT ROOM, TRAINING, COMMITMENT. That's why some have been outplayed. Am I'm saying that other programs in 22-5A don't have those things? NO, I'M NOT. It's just that when Central "took theirs to the chin" they got up dusted themselves off and moved on. When Ozen got "pulverized," they dusted themselves off and got ready for Central. Here came PAM third district win and SOME OF THEIR FANS want PAM income taxes audited, want to check our birth certificates checked and God only knows what else. I mean damn just face it, your team may just be on a "down year." It's not like PAM asked, "please drop us to 22-5A,PLEASE." If anyone's to blame, blame yourselves/coaches. Because if they would stop RECRUITING players/parents then PAM would still be 6-A. Oh I know, the parents/players want better education and YADA YADA. Those same parents should probably be around a tad bit more to make sure their kids(because PAISD didn't help conceive or give birth to them) aren't apart of the problem, but the solution. With all that being said, good luckto you ALL the rest of the season.

Then call the UIL. I'm sure someone over there has the number.

Their coaching was obviously better than yours tonight, SMH... With that out of the way, I do have to give Ned some credit, the were resilient and kept fighting. I was impressed with Perkins and #10. #10 had a nice TD catch. I do hope and pray Perkins and #5 (the player which had to be helped off by two coaches) are ok. Good luck to y'all the rest of the way.

In due time. First we're going enjoy this win tonight. Then we're going to go to work preparing for Lumberton tomorrow. #waityourturn

The whole county knows who also.

Becuase it's going to be packed.

Hope you have a ticket already.

And THAT they will. Like I tell the players each week "BEAT NEDERLAND" (of course the team changes weekly)

Ok so you're pretty much judging from ONE GAME. I know you won't make it to PA because you'll be supporting your Pirates, but please be here around the same tomorrow and read some of the Nederland/nederville/nerd land posters.

1)Harrison doesn't play call 2)When was the last time you saw PAM? 3)HUGE difference in the players Harrison has vs Neumann's

Both games were good but, the second was a nail bitter. Gave real meaning to the phrase "up to the last second."

I totally agree with Coach. They SHOULD'VE felt disrespected. I bet nobody else will make that mistake next year. Tell you what, go ask Faircloth to schedule Nederland for homecoming next year and see what Neumann responds to it. Shoot IMO, EVERY team should feel DISRESPECTED if they're the "HOMECOMING GUEST."

I'd simply tell them to stop whining. Last realignment, we around 2106 to 2110 students and had to go and compete against districts with enrollments of 3000, 4000 and 5000 students.

We don't play by "what if's"...

I'd have to say North Shore.
