Would love too but it’s about 18 to 20 miles from Vidor. The proximity just doesn’t favor us. Like I said before Vidor is not a perennial powerhouse but our boys over the years have put together some good seasons and we’ve had our share of bad seasons. But I promise you they will be ready for Saturday. Hopefully we give y’all a good game. Hoping for a injury free game on both sides.

i miss the old I-10 vidor-0 signs

I am old enough to remember those signs. Those were hard years for sure. I think I like that we scored 84 points in our last 2 games better! Lol!

You said it.  My kids were in elementary when they were going thru that 40+ game losing streak.  I like Vidor 42 vs Interstate 10 a lot better.

Vidor and Nederland has been a slobberknocker for over a decade now, cant wait, two of the best coached and classy teams in the region

Amen, and in the last couple of decades, has become very competitive.  Winning breeds winning.  Have always envied schools with winning traditions, like Ned and PNG.  The mindset of the players is always, We can win.  As an example, a team without that tradition, down 3TD's at the start of the 4th Qtr is ready to go home.  Ned & PNG players are still trying to figure out how to win the game.  To mirror the ad, priceless.

The day for the big game is here.  The Black and Gold Bowl.  If my hearing wasn't so bad, I could probably hear the pads hitting all the way up here in Evadale.  It's going to be hot.  Kids will be sweaty.  A fumble may decide the winner.  

Go Pirates!

Since when is Nederland Vidor a rivalry game? Nederland has one rival - PNG.

It's been a better contest the past few years but historically this series has been sporadic and one sided in Nederland's favor. If Nederland had a second rival, it would be West Orange - Stark. WOS has no rival (LCM don't count because 2 wins in 30 some odd games don't cut it).

I guess Vidor got too big for their annual game against Lumberton to call that their rivalry game.

Most schools aren't lucky enough to have a rival that the other team feels the same mutual hate/respect. Just because you play each other every year doesn't make you peers.

So glad you got to express your thoughts bear. I hope you feel bettter now

The rivalry talk is just to irritate the Nederland Titan Trolls! Nobody in Vidor believes that rivalry nonsense. By the way the Nederland Titans have won one game out of seven against WOS since 2004. Lol!

This has been addressed numerous times on this thread.  Had you bothered to read the whole thing you'd realize that.  As Realville said, it irritates some Ned fans.  Rivalry? No.  But two good teams lining up for a tough game.

Anybody checked on ole rob?  Haven't heard much from him since Saturday.

How many has Vidor won on WOS? 

[TenaciousK]

Well it was pretty hot out there... he might still be in puddle form. I know that even with an umbrella, the right side of my face took such a beating, that I'm loosely resembling Sandor Clegane this week.

I saw that a couple of Vidor band members and the QB were treated for heat issues, someone better make sure Rob didn't have a heat stroke.  I never understood why the bands wear wool (or whatever they are made of) uniforms in SE Texas.

One of your trolls said WOS would be a 2nd rival after PNG. One win out of seven is not a rivalry.....Just sayin! Lol! Just like the Nederland Titans aren’t a rival to us! Lol!

I'm usually the one clamoring for the bands to wear their traditional uniforms...I know at least in vidor, they will oft-times go tees/jeans in unfavorable weather conditions..i was honestly impressed that both bands were in their actual uniforms for Saturday's game. Questionable idea... but was shocked/impressed that they did it. This will be a redundant statement - but Saturday day games just don't have the pomp of Friday night.

Yeah, no reason for those games in this climate.  I am all for the uniforms, but they can't make them out of a lighter fabric?   I know some of the issues are durability and cost, but about the only time your would want those heavy uniforms is maybe December!

Lol sounds like y'all need to play another 10 games to find out if the record would change for the better, Why doesn't Vidor schedule WOS?

Because both coaches seem content with scrimmaging them each year.

I think you mean another 11 games. Don’t know why we don’t play them in non district games. We usually scrimmage them. Maybe Matthews has asked an Coach T doesn’t want to play us in non District. Really don’t have an answer for you.

Need to play it in the regular season. It would help Vidor a ton

No 10, that way it's an even amount of times played for both sides. Why Jasper, bridge city and Pasadena teams? Easy Ws, need someone to challenge them instead of a cupcake schedule and wonder why no playoffs at the end of the season. Another question, do y'all ever think JM will switch to another type offense? just wondering really.

I could be wrong but I believe 15 minus 26 is 11. From what I’ve heard and read Matthews has a hard time finding teams to play us in non district games. Doesn’t have anything to do with cupcakes and ding dongs. Doubt he’ll ever change the offense but I wouldn’t mind him incorporating using the qb in the shotgun going 5 wide with TE. I think everyone in our district wouldn’t know what to do if we did that. If a receiver isn’t open then just run like we always do 99% of the time! Lol

Ned 26+7=33 games 

Vidor 7+ 15= 22 games 

leaving 10 games remaining for Vidor to even the amount of games Ned has played against WOS. That's the way I was looking at it.
