KFDM COOP Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Actually' date=' in 2000, right in the middle of that stretch, we went to the sixth round. That's not a seven year stretch, but a two-year period and a four-year period. Also, that stretch was broken last year. With no disrespect intended, those years of success for the bears were both the beginning and the end of such prominence. Does LC-M have fewer athletes now than they did in 94-96? We certainly do.[/quote'] Surely they have more than back then ?
bearbooster Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 You had a seven year stretch in which you only went past the first round of the playoffs once! I know this is hard for you to admit, but it is true. From 1998 through 2004 this was the case. 1998 no 1999 no 2000 yes 2001 no 2002 no 2003 no 2004 no The only reason I even brought out that fact was GS said we had a fifteen year stretch where we only went past the first round of the playoffs once. I only posted that in retaliation. Now come back at me with how far you went in 2000 and how many games you won in the regular season. That is all irrelevant to the FACT that I have pointed out to you.
ESPN Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 What is impressive for WOS is they have the number 1 Winning Percentage in the entire state. Saw that on FSN one night and it's also in the Historical section here.
WOS92 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Actually, what I read in the earlier post was this, verbatim: I simply pointed out the fact that y'all had a seven year period of going no further than the first round. I don't see "more than once," "only once" or "once" in there. Maybe it was said in an even earlier post, but I was responding to THIS post. Having noted that, I think mentioning the 2000 wins is relevant. Re-stating my earlier question: Does LC-M have fewer athletes now than they did in the mid-90s?
bearbooster Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 It was from this earlier post and I was wrong. He said twice.
WOS92 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 I realize what he said. I'm responding to the post in which you said we had not made it past the first round in seven years. If that was a typo, then fine - it happens to the best.
WOS92 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 And I think I'm asking a relevant question when I ask whether y'all have fewer athletes now than in the mid-90s. While I can't imagine that that is the case, it would explain the plummet. If not, something else is factoring in. Right?

WOS92 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Posted June 14, 2006 If Vidor could only manage four total wins and one district win last year - when they returned 10 starters on each side of the ball - I don't see them having much shot at the district title with just four on each side this year. I really don't think the coachng is there, and (I'll probably be hanged for this, but it's honest) sometimes I'm stunned to see the pedestal upon which some still put the Pirates' coaching staff. One playoff appearance and a 29-32 record isn't horrible, but not enough to garner the praise I often hear. Granted, it's better than what preceded the current leadership, but I would think that with both enrollment and demographics that almost mirror that of Nederland and PN-G, the expectations in Vidor would be for performance to do the same. Certainly the attitude of players and fans in Vidor have turned around, and maybe that is enough. But it hasn't been enough to "turn around" the program yet. I wish them only the best, but I'm certainly in the "skeptics" column at this point after such high expectations last year.
JohnnyT60 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Posted June 14, 2006 David Williams was not in the same category with Hooks. His re-assignment took place about 5 years too late.
Guest Living 4 Friday Nights Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Does anyone think LCM can make the top 3 this Year? If not this year probably next with Coach Moody in Charge.
WOS92 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 I don't think it's going to happen this year. Ask us around Week 7 about next year. We should be seeing some turnaround by then - at least in attitude - by then.
Guest GoStangs Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Does anyone think LCM can make the top 3 this Year? If not this year probably next with Coach Moody in Charge. No. Not necessarily because they won't be improved, but because this is a fairly competitive district with a few pretty strong teams. They've got a long uphill battle in front of them just to catch up to Central, Ozen, Dayton, PNG, and Nederland.
Bobcatfan4life Posted June 15, 2006 Author Report Posted June 15, 2006 Record wise, what do you guys think will be a successful year for LC-M?
JohnnyT60 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 6-4 or 7-3 Win the games you should and an upset or two. Gotta think positive.
Guest Living 4 Friday Nights Posted June 17, 2006 Report Posted June 17, 2006 I would love to see Vidor make some noise. Anyone else see them upsetting the top teams?
godogs Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 i see it playing out this way Central Ozen Nederland Dayton Png Vidor Lumberton LCM Ozen and Nederland may switch places! I'm not to sure yet :?:
