You are correct!  I say don't diss them.  Try to be like them!  [quote name="DownLegDrone" post="1130831" timestamp="1322298945"] [quote author=jmoore link=topic=92235.msg1130742#msg1130742 date=1322283849] Wow, the SportsDay HS show on Fox just completely wrote off 4A Division I Region III. Said whoever comes out of Region I or II will have Lake Travis waiting. [/quote] Travis has earned the right to command that kind of respect. Rankings don't mean too much, but they tell something about a team. USA Today ranks them 15 among ALL teams in the nation (Katy is 3). At the same time, that's not a safe prediction, the last two times LT and Cedar Park have gone at it have been decided by a total of 4 points. CP has two consecutive shutouts against playoff teams (not an easy feat in 4A D1). Unlikely that streak will continue, however theres going to be a game worth watching at DKR this Friday. Whoever survives that still has to play a tough opponent, anything can happen that's why they play the games. What Sportsday says won't have one iota of impact on the eventual outcome. But realistically, LT or a team that can beat them is going to be one heck of an opponent. Until they're beat, LT is at the top of the heap and deservingly so. [/quote]

Would love to.  But have to work.  You? [quote name="outanup" post="1129624" timestamp="1322238755"] Going to the game Smitty? [/quote]

Again, if you wait long enough, you will eventually be right.  I tried to stay quite, but I knew things would be said so I had to respond.  I knew you would.  You guys are predictable as always.  ;) [quote name="outanup" post="1128336" timestamp="1322070674"] Always believed in Spell, and had a feeling this years D would be special.....With that said, where are the naysayers now?

Ok, you ask for it.  If one waits long enough good things will happen. You know, the law of averages.  Just like the broke clock being right twice a day.  Although I wish it were the case, this can't be done year in and year out.  This years bunch is in spite of not because! So, again, if you wait long enough you'll get to say, what's Smitty gonna say now?!  LOL!!!!    Good luck to the Dogs anyway! [quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1128011" timestamp="1322020947"] Where is Smitty to comment on this subject? ;) [/quote]

Dogs are doing a good job!!  [quote name="outanup" post="1126801" timestamp="1321920837"] Hey Smitty...How bout them Bulldogs? [/quote]

Read it again.  I said if Nederland's offense has a problem it won't be because of the noise.  It'll be because of Pearland's defense.  I never said they were going to have a problem though.  Concentrate!  ;D [quote name="baddog" post="1126794" timestamp="1321920406"] There's a traitor in the ranks. Smitty says nothing good about the team where he resides. The defense has come around and still he talks up the other team. He should move. [/quote]

I've been right here taking it all in!!  ;) [quote name="outanup" post="1123079" timestamp="1321676273"] [quote author=smitty link=topic=91771.msg1122778#msg1122778 date=1321672642] Ouch!!  LOL!!!!

I sorta doubt that if Nederland's offense has a problem this week, it won't be because of the noise.  I'm sure Pearland's defense would be the problem and not the noise!! [quote name="thedogs1987" post="1126051" timestamp="1321845008"] Thanks for the Ticket Info. Note:  TO ALL NEDERLAND  FANS,  you are to remain quiet while Nederland is on offense.  I have noticed the fans get loud when we have the ball in a big play.  It is HELPFUL to our offense to be quiet and let them get the play off effectively. YOU ARE to make NOISE when we are on DEFENSE - even on EVERY PLAY (not just 3rd downs).  This upsets the opponent's offense.  The Band does great to play and make noise while the OTHER team is on Offense.  Great Job Band! Make some NOISE this week, just at the right times!!!  On that note, Bring BACK any noise makers- Bells, Shaker Cans, Anything Noise Makers you Have this week.  We need to be NEDERLAND LOUD at this one! Go Dogs Go!!! [/quote]

Now this does surprise me!!

Good job Ned!!

I agree!!  Since we are a nation of touchy-feelys now and don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, let's let all teams go to the playoffs.  Why not have a 0-10 make it?  2-8 teams do.  Let's just extend the embarrassment a little deeper!!    :-\ [quote name="Englebert" post="1124491" timestamp="1321741190"] Shouldn't 5 teams go from each district? 24-4a has a pretty good 5th place team that did not make the playoffs. That is certainly not fair considering they could have beat half of the teams that made the playoffs. How about 6 teams. Hell, let's put'em all in, even if you only have one district win. Trophies for everyone. [/quote]

Ouch!!  LOL!!!! [quote name="bulldogbacker" post="1121934" timestamp="1321636541"] b faircloth may be available [/quote]

BH wins!  They play better defense!! quote author=BH 89-2 link=topic=90627.msg1098708#msg1098708 date=1319885677] Vote!!!! [/quote]

Lumberton won?!  You gotta be kidding me!  OUCH!!    ;D

I'm right here!  Yes, it's good Neauman finally won an out-right district championship.  He deserves it.  I wish/hope Nederland would win it every year.  Good job! [quote name="Mr. Buddy Garrity" post="1098450" timestamp="1319860829"] Where's smitty? [/quote]

With 4 teams now, unfortunately, going to the playoff, it's not a must win yet. 

Blue, did you proof or POOF he's gone?!  LOL!!!!    ;D

I think running the spread did hurt Bridge City against Vidor.  It was played in the rain.

Now THAT is funny!    ;D [quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1039755" timestamp="1314122441"] [quote author=liltex link=topic=86947.msg1039732#msg1039732 date=1314119979] Game of the week @Lamar ;) [/quote] Nope, it's at Da Butch (PAM vs. Central) ;) [/quote]

Correction:  Never Champs.  Just Co-Champs. [quote name="Gasilla" post="1039731" timestamp="1314119702"] [quote author=Honest Abe link=topic=86947.msg1039642#msg1039642 date=1314103517] I just remember losing to them, and it seemed like they won district JUST ABOUT every year starting in 1986 (I think that was when they joined 20-4A) through 2000. I'm sure WOSgrad has that information somewhere.  :) [q uote author=BMTSoulja1 link=topic=86947.msg1039633#msg1039633  date=1314099561] [quote author=Honest Abe link=topic=86947.msg1039248#msg1039248 date=1314013439] [quote author=LCM_2012 link=topic=86947.msg1039207#msg1039207 date=1313985182] If wos was in 20-4a would they be a playoff team? ;D [/quote] Of course they would be. They would prob win district every year like they did when they were in 20-4A. [/quote]Really?  Because they sure in the heck didn't do it since Central have been in the local district since 2002. Mater of fact, they missed the playoffs as well. [/quote] [/quote] We were in 20-4A from 1986-2003 (18yrs) of those 18 we were Champs or Co-Champs 10 of those years. We were only in the district for 2 seasons once Central dropped. Both of those we were 8-2 and missed the playoffs both years due to tie breakers. We went 1-1 against Central during that span (we are 8-2 vs Central total). [/quote]

There's been a lot of talk about WOS possibly struggling with a new offense.  Let's look at Nederland's offense.  True, it's not new to the coaches, but I don't think many, if any, of these kids have ran the "old" offense.  So, with only, I think, 3 returning starters and a different, new so to speak, offense, how will this affect them against WOS?

correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the only time WOS has lost to Nederland was when Thompson was not the DC?

Ouch!  That hurts!! [quote name="speveto" post="1038650" timestamp="1313929398"] Nederland and WOS have played each-other in the the first game of the year, for a while.  I think WOS  has a winning streak going at this time.  I should keep this to myself but I think the difference has been "CONDITIONING". [/quote]

Sounds like you are kicking the dead horse.  I never mention anything about it.  I was curious about Nederland not coping with Dayton's speed (PA News quote).  If they can't do that, then can they cope with WOS'.  Would love to hear an honest opinion from you! PS - But since you brought it up and not me, I'll reserve judgement until I see the product first. [quote name="ispeakjive" post="1038433" timestamp="1313881622"] Smitty: Let me try and save you a week's (and maybe season's) worth of posts: WOS is too fast for us and the Defensive Coordinator won't make any adjustments to compensate for their speed.  He will be the cause for it if we lose this week and for a poor season if it happens.  That should about cover it.  If I left anything out I am sure that you will grab the stick and start flogging that dead horse again soon.
