Guest beards_bro Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 You know what, I will root for the Dayton kids to win their games and advance in the playoffs. It's not their fault some of their fans say ridiculous things. They are a good team and have earned their spot...even if it is a #2 seed.
texans Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 If you two have any pull this is what we need to do. If Dayton gets moved out of this district lets play week 1,2, or 3. I know for a fact that Dayton would love to play the next 2 years. Maybe yall can drop cleveland, BC or the other power house that yall played. It would be great for 2 tradition rich programs to play these next 2 years. If your going to crow crow all the time not just the one time in 42 years that yall made the playoffs. So lets play it will be fun.
texans Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 Acording to Maverick PNG must be a super, super, super team since they whipped the g train, i mean l train
Guest deez Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 I hope Lumberton is on the schedule. So does everyone in Dayton. They won't schedule us if they can help it, no doubt.
Guest maverick24 Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 I bow and tip my hat to png they are Super Super Super good lolWe are sooooo scared of a team we beat lol!
Guest deez Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 Just don't try and dodge us. We're coming.
Guest TravelingBandsman Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 I don't harp over the fact that Dayton lost to Lumberton. I fully accept that we did. The only thing is your thinking that it would be the exact same game in a round 4 matchup, and we're trying to tell you, it wouldn't, that's all. I'm not saying who would win or who would lose but it would definitely be 5 times tougher for Lumberton in this new scenario. Also, about the loss, time and time again I hear it referred to as a whipping or a stomping. I ask you, since when is a lucky two point conversion to make it 8-7 a whipping. The context is way out of line. I would call it a last minute down to the wire upset.....but definitely 100% not a whipping.

It shouldn't have came down to that anyways....we had already dropped at least two wide open passes that would have been for sure td's when our players had your defenders beat and we had twice as many penalties and turnovers against us in critical situations which killed several of our drives in your territory. In reality, the game could have been a win for the raiders by at least 2 td's.
raiderpride Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 i dont understand why people keep saying we got the rules changed, first off, you CANT change a UIL rule in one night, it is a set in rule and they arent gonna think "oh, well lumberton is doing good so we gotta feel bad for them and let them have the easy game" that ish dont happen, stop looking for excuses, WE DIDNT RUN OUT AND CRY TILL THE RULES CHANGED!!!!!
WarPaint Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Posted November 14, 2007 Post complaints about the rules somewhere else please i just want to see yall play each other again .I think it would be a great game........

In reality, the game could have been a win for the raiders by at least 2 td's.My point is though, you didn't. You didn't score those other 2 touchdowns you "should" have scored. I could say all day that we should have won that game but it won't change the fact that we didn't. 8-7 is an OH MY GOD close game. Both teams gave their all, and Lumberton was just able to slip by with the win. In a round 4 matchup, you'd be facing an entirely different setup. I'm trying to say, it would not be in the least the same game as last time.
Raiderfan87 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 All I can say is ..... We hope to see the Broncos in Round 4!!What venue would Dayton like?
Chewca Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 Unlikely, but I sure would like to see it happen. I got to see most of Lumberton v. Dayton & Dayton v. Nederland and all of Nederland v. Lumberton this year. Both Dayton & Lumberton are vastly improved. I think it would be a great contest not to mention the Region III D-II sweep. If it happened, I can't imagine Cardinal Stadium as the venue. I think it seats around 17,500.
NDNWarrior Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 If this were to happen, and the Inidans are not still in the playoffs, I will be there! Wouldn't miss it!
stevieray Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 I think it's great to see Lumberton make the playoffs....you have to start a new tradition some how and a trip to the playoffs and maybe a win or 2 can have a lasting impression on the youngsters.***A 4th round re-match between Dayton - Lumberton would be huge for SE Texas. ***Dayton looks to be turning it up big time and at the right time..
l town fan Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 If its poissible i definately see it happeningDayton obviously isnt gunna go down without a fight, and if Dayton fights they likely will win but L town has surely impressed me as the song "The Impossible" states, "if the fury of the wind is unstoppable, i've learned to never underestimate the impossible"as unlikely as it seems i believe these guys can do anything
Bucof2010 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 There's no "truth" to hurt us...we haven't played ya'll again yet and nobody knows the outcome of that game until after we do play. And if you beat us, so be it...you can finally stop whinning about your loss to us in week 1. Call me an idiot if you please but I have read every thread about dayton and Lumberton and never once has anyone from Dayton "whined" about the loss they have promised it would not happen again but that is not whining in any context.
Bucof2010 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 I hope we get LaMarque in round 2. I welcome that challenge for our boys. To be the best, you've got to beat the best. You can't go around hoping you're able to dodge all of the great teams. You are going to have to face them eventually. I guess Dayton is upset with the seeding because they must feel that Crosby is a tougher team than the other and they wanted the easy way out so they could advance to round two. All we can do is give it our best and leave it all out there on the field. If they beat the boys, at least they will know that they gave it there all and played the very best that they could. But first, we will concentrate on Smiley and not over look them at all. If we win...then maybe LaMarque. First of all nobody from Dayton is upset about the seeding because there is no doubt about them beating Crosby. They are upset because they are the best team in the district and are not the #1 seed.Second Saying they wanted to take the easy route is a bold statement which is obviously not true because they would be requesting Smiley or Lumberton two teams everyone knows Dayton can beat.
Bucof2010 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 Mav..I understand what you are saying about certain posters making it hard for people to root for Dayton. Now I see why they always stay upset about not getting any love from the public and other football fans. If you look in the Saturday papers from the previous weeks they are getting no love. The win against PNG was barely mentioned in last weeks paper..it was on the very last page in small print if it even was. The week before against Big Ned..63-0 was'nt even hardly mentioned if you go back and look. I guess it's just hard to root for these guys and it shows..at least from what I've been observing lately. Just my opinion..they don't have to like it.The reason they dont get attention is because everyone expects them to win. Lumberton gets attention because for the first time in forty somthing years they have a "decent" team. NOTE: not a great team a decent team
Guest Penny Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 Hey, let's play round 1 first, then worry about round 4 later.... maybe in a couple of weeks.
Guest whoabroncos09 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 lets take this one game at a time!!
ladyraider123 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 Relish in the fact that Lumberton did beat Dayton this year.But as far as the #2 seed...Must be nice to CHANGE THE RULES to get the #1 seed.Second..."Crosby doesn't beat yall like raidernation did."A one point victory in the last few seconds of a game is not a whipping, it is pulling out a last second "home field advantage" win.Third...."Second are you hoping that LaMarque will do something that yall couldn't."If Lumberton does get to the second round along with LaMarque, I wish the Raiders the best of luck.Fourth.... "See I want to pull for Dayton but its posters like you and Purple that make Other teams root against yall."I think your words in this post are in harmony of what this district did on the Friday afternoon meeting. Good luck against Smiley, if things get rough just see if you can have the rules changed.Back to the topic....Hopefully all three 22-4A teams will win this Friday.That is the first step to the rematch.CAN YOU PLEASE QUIT FREAKIN SAYING THAT WE CHANGED THE RULES, IF LUMBERTON HAD THAT MUCH FREAKIN POWER THAN WE WOULD JUST TAKE IT ALL NOW, STOPPP SAYING THAT UNTIL U KNOW 110% OF THE FACTS NOT "WHAT U FREAKIN HEARD." I MEAN DO YOU SERIOUSLY THINK THAT WE ARE JUST THAT AWESOME TO JUST UP AND CHANGE THE RULES IN OUR FAVOR, YEA WERE PRETTY GOOD BUT WE DONT HAVE THAT KINDA POWER.JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT WE ALL SHARE A TITLE... GET OVER IT.Why dont we all come together and cheer each other on.We are all representing our area. come on guys..thanks
raideroldtimer Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 Call me an idiot if you please but I have read every thread about dayton and Lumberton and never once has anyone from Dayton "whined" about the loss they have promised it would not happen again but that is not whining in any context.Obviously thE Dayton boys haven't looked at the logo on the Lumberton helmets very close. If ya'll had you'd notice that the Raider is riding that bronc all the way to a touchdown........lol. GO L-TOWN.....LET IT LOOSE!!!!!

You just keep proving that you know nothing about H.S. Football! If Dayton were the best team in District they would have beat everybody (THEY DIDN'T) The Raidernation beat yall, png beat Raidernation then yall beat png, Why can't you face the fact that yall are no better or worse than the other two. Second please save the fact that you (KNOW) Dayton would beat teams in advance. Dayton us a good team NOT A GREAT TEAM but good and it is sad that some people like you make it hard for the rest of us to pull for them. I wish the team luck against Crosby because unlike what you think Crosby is coming to play. Save your gaurantees for something you know about, because You have proven that you know very little about Football.
