Now you guys feel our pain when Stump was dominating around here and Nederland didn't want to renew their series with us,  PNG,  Vidor,  LCM and many others around SETX didn't want to pick up the phone so we had to find stronger schools across the state which in the end worked out for us come playoff time. 

I wonder why West Brook didn’t renew their series with Katy or Westfield or try and keep the north shore or DP or La Porte series going when they weren’t in the same district...?

Silsbee has never been scared to play Newton they know if you play good competition It makes u better . WOS , Orangefield , Bridge City I’ll give y’all props for not being scared but the rest of Southeast Texas doesn’t want to play anyone . Cupcake schedules = Cupcake results in the playoffs

While most of us recognize the value of choosing to play a good program like Newton in the buildup to district play, not everybody feels that way. 

If you are a coach with big aspirations of moving on in your coaching career, it’s hard to do much with a bad winning percentage. Locking yourself into 2-3 guaranteed Ls each year isn’t a good way to get a better paying gig. 

Plus, a big school playing Newton is kinda like picking a fight in a gay bar. You can’t brag if you win, but you’d better not lose. 

Running from a fight , to scared to even show up .

Go schedule a team from the Greater Houston Area or Central Texas - not like there's just a hot bead of top knotch teams down here. Obviously, there's Newton and WO-S, but what else is down here at that level in the 4A and 3A classifications? What does a 5A or 6A team have to gain from playing a 3A team?

Newton is an Alpha level program, no doubt about it. But you're probably going to have to extend the search further from SETX or the Piney Woods.

The problem with Houston or anywhere else that is that far off is the Jr. High and JV playing Thursday night and having to get back late and having school the next day. This area does have  some quality teams. It just so happens that this year was a down year for this area. A lot of these teams like  K-vill, Br. City, E. Chambers and several more teams will rebound. Silsbee and Jasper and Woodville are always quality teams, Diboll was one of the better teams we played last year.

Nederland has played WOS as a non district opponent more than any other team in the last 25 years or so, and we were in the same district for awhile. and when they were not on our schedule we were scrimmaging them, I think it helped make us better in the long run, and there certainly was no shame losing to the Mustangs

Yes unlike png , jasper and others that run away from wos after getting skull drugg and like i said aldine was number 1 in the state and 2 in country wos call them up for a game and won play new braunfel they where number in the land I believe beat them also. so to say wos is scared of anyone is a load of crap we welcome challenges

People complain about you fanning the flames at times but this is why I love reading your posts on this site.  Killed me.

      John Cornyn Will Be Primaried In 2026!

      I have no issue with that however…. Rick Perry, although seemingly not really popular even with Republicans, was almost impossible to beat. The Texas conservatives just needed that tough, real conservative with an already popular voting base. Someone that has been elected to both Texas state office and federal office.  Boom! In 2010 in steps Kay Bailey Hutchison, a popular sitting US Senator and former Texas Treasurer. So she has been elected, statewide in both a state political position and nationally as a senator. A Rasmussen poll in 2009 showed Hutchison with a 40% to 38% lead over Perry. She had high profile endorsements as did Perry. Hutchison was endorsed by the likes of G H W Bush, Nolan Ryan, Roger Staubach, etc. If people are actually going to listen to endorsements, those are some fairly well thought of people in Texas. Primary day was between Perry, Hutchison and Debra Medina. Hutchison was beaten by Perry 51% to 30% and he got enough votes to avoid a runoff. Obviously, that has no bearing on today. It does show that just because a person is very popular and already elected to national office from Texas such as Kay Bailey Hutchison, it does not ensure a good showing in the polls against an incumbent. It will be interesting for sure.

      WOW what a game. just got home, I'm gonna sleep with a big smile all night. PNG QB passes were spot on tonight, lil #17 freshman receiver had huge catches at critical times in the game. # 44 had a couple of huge catches including the 'jump pass' on 4th down for a touchdown.  #4 made big plays at key times on both sides of the ball, he is a beast. #11 played his usual consistent game with big time catches and a couple of good punts and a good job of just falling on a bobbled kick reception. #27 probably had 125 yards or so rushing. The defensive backs did a good job, bending but not breaking including the interception in the end zone. I thought the TH coaches messed up not trying to score with the high power players they have when they got the fumble right before half with 45 seconds or so on the clock and 3 TO left, if they would have scored then it would have broke our backs. I know it was 90 yards to go but they could cover the field in 3 or 4 plays. This is one of the most exciting wins in PNG's long history of exciting wins. Oh yeah kudos to the fans for getting in to the game at key times and in my Opinion making a big difference. 😂
