Xlion Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 The problem does not solely lie with "unnamed coach" it lies with the attitude of the school and the community, no coach will ever change things as long as the community and schools attitude remains the same. Moody is dealing with the same problems that ultimately moved DW to retire. As far as inspirational leaders go, i know of a small core group of players that can be counted on to play hard every snap and try to get everyone else on their level. Skipper said earlier that LCM was very poor at blocking, i dont agree with that to an extent, i've seen the line open up huge holes, its the lead backs and tight ends that have a problem with blocking. But i also saw several times LCM has tried to use play action and QB keeps, and they just wont work because there is not a good enough ball fake. The biggest problem is LCM's defense. What it comes down to is that you can't win on effort alone. Great effort beats great talent, but LCM lacks something resembling talent. They are getting run over, or run around. I will say that they play hard and do the best they can with what they have. The starters as of now, minus maybe 4 or 5, are players that have been backups all their lives. I really do feel sorry for all the players coaches and fans, but just think of this, the struggles of this year will only prepare those young guys, and better equip them for next year. And there back ups have been starters all their lives, With that being said.. Respect is earned not given. When the LC-M players learn that have to earn RESPECT that it will not be given to them, and want to earn it (respect) everything will start getting better.
skipper Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 14-sr 12-jr 8-soph LC-M is fair in size BUT (NO) TEAM SPEED
dawgnut Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 LCM always plays NHS tough. I wouldn't put to much stock in all these predictions! We have a way of not playing in the games that we are supposed to win. I hope we have some SR leadership step up and keep the guys in line.
Bucof2010 Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 I'm not just saying this because of where I am from. But when has LC-M been good at football? Besides the '94 team. Does being in the same town as WOS hurt their outlook on football. I wish the bears all the luck but at the end of the day there are teams that win and those that will lose. LCM has been one of those teams that lose. They are in a very competitive district. I just don't see what everyone is complaining about. Just get used to it. How bout walking into the LCM fieldhouse tomorow and saying "well guys you'll go to the wrong school just get used to losing" or walk through the stands Friday night and explain to the parents why they should "just get used to losing."
NeDeRlAnD b-DoG fAn Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 I just hope Nederland doesn't get too over confident. LCM usually gives Big Ned a good game at LCM. I say Ned wins by 4 TDs though. Bulldogs=35 Bears=7
Nederland Dog 2006 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 I honestly don't see anybody beating us this year. We just played our hardest game in district... in my opinion. We just need to play one game at a time and not look ahead. We have a running game this year and that big bull #54 to lead the way. We didn't have that last year. All we did was drop back and pass. Drop back and pass. Drop back and pass. I just hope that we don't run into anybody that can consistently throw the ball. Our secondary is really not A1 steak sauce good, ya know? But this week we should take this game hands down. Nederland- 35 LCM-10
Gtj007 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 If Nederland scores less than 50 I will be shocked!!!
tvc184 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 I honestly don't see anybody beating us this year. We just played our hardest game in district... in my opinion.............................. Nederland- 35 LCM-10 I have a feeling that Central, Vidor and Lumberton may have a different take on that. Even though a rivalry game, I don't think PNG put up the best fight that we will see. Maybe on another day they might have but not that night. I hope that you are correct but I don't believe it.
td Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 I don't believe it either. Nobody is talking about Central. I'm picking them to win the district.
NeDeRlAnD b-DoG fAn Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 I think Central and Vidor are going to be harder games to win than the PNG game was. Lumberton should also be a battle.
Razor Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 Vidor, Central, and Lumberton all have the potential to be tougher games than the PNG game was...fact is, Nederland played well that night and that is the challenge, continuing to play well every week...it is much harder than it sounds...an off night against anyone in the district could spell trouble...I think the district is loaded with parity with most teams being able to beat any other on any given night.

Pretty much, with the exception of a team that has been struggling for a couple of years now. Even they have the chance to play a good game and shock someone. I think a lot of PNG fans (not the players) fell into the trap of beating up on LCM and thinking that meant they were ready to take on all comers. This district is full of traps just waiting to be sprung.

Nederland Dog 2006 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 yeah. True. I can see us going undefeated in district. I just don't see a legit 1st place team other than nederland. Maybe Central but I highly doubt it. We will see. It'll be a good'un. ;D
NDNWarrior Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 Nederland always has problems with Central. Central is fired up this year. Sorry, but I don't see Nederland going undefeated in district.
Nederland Dog 2006 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 I think the only game we have to really keep an eye for is the central game. But other than that? Vidor? LCM? Livingston and pop up as a surprise but i don't think so. We will see though. I'm just excited about this running game we got. My goodness. It's hard to stop that hoss.
NDNWarrior Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 I agree, with you Nederland Dog....I'll be pullin for Nederland when they match up with Central. Is the game at Central or Nederland? I
Nederland Dog 2006 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 Central. We have 2 away games in a row which doesn't make since.
NDNWarrior Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 LOL....all of our games this year, so far, have been "on the road"! I'm glad to finally not have to drive this week! Best of luck to the Dogs!
purpleeagle Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 LC-M will have about as many points as they have fans in the stand. Not very many....
