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.

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."

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

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.

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.

      Orangefield 65 Livingston 83/FINAL

      By Cu Chulainn · Posted

      Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.

      I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
