PNG1992 Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 This was posted a few months ago but football season is quickly approaching so I wanted to bring it up again. This is the perfect opportunity for anyone interested who works or is out of town and cannot make a game to receive up to the minute scores via the web or a text message. Just sign up for a twitter page and follow "pngindians". You'll then need to register your cell phone to receive text updates. Theres no added cell phone charges to receive the text updates other than what you would normally pay now. If you have unlimited text messaging then its a non issue. The idea was thought of and done by "BigDog" from this site and bigned.com. Nederland fans or anyone curious about the Nederland games can follow the Nederland page: "NedDogs". Remember, even if you're not a PNG or Nederland fan you can sign up for the updates if your favorite school is on their schedule. At least for that one week you'll be provided scoring updates. Ill also try to pass along scores from other local teams during the PNG games that get provided to us. Below are the two twitter pages, give them a look: www.twitter.com/pngindians www.twitter.com/NedDogs
KFDM COOP Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 That should work well. We'll also have updated from every game here on the site every Friday Night.
prepballfan Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 Thanks guys I have registered. This will work well when Im on graveyards.
Bigdog Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 Thats the idea! Thanks for reminding everyone 92. I will be getting updates on Vidor directly to my page and will relay them to everyone. I will try to give updates on other district games and "games of interest" at least once a quarter. If you have any particular game in mind, that is outside 20-4a let me know!
EX-Ceauxch Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 That's great 1992. But no phones on the unit...
AggiesAreWe Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 If you cannot have radios at work, we will probably be simulcasting the PNG and Nederland games here on the site. Stay tuned for further info.
PNG1992 Posted August 9, 2009 Author Report Posted August 9, 2009 Ive created an email to attempt at answering any questions from folks having issues. the email address is: [email protected] Also, to make sure everyone is able to receive the updates Ill send out a test message tomorrow during the day. If anyone signed up to follow doesnt receive it please email the addy above so we can try to figure it out.
PNG1992 Posted August 11, 2009 Author Report Posted August 11, 2009 The age of Twitter, unbelieveable. I totally agree but not only does it help some folks, it helps me. Now I only have to text the score one time for all my "friends" to get the updates.
EX-Ceauxch Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 What's twitter? Can I receive updates on my pager????
Bigdog Posted August 12, 2009 Report Posted August 12, 2009 You could sign up an account and send one to your self, or sign up to follow my page and I will send one out.
dawgnut Posted August 12, 2009 Report Posted August 12, 2009 What's twitter? Can I receive updates on my pager???? They still make pagers? I thought they went out with cassette tapes!
Bigdog Posted August 12, 2009 Report Posted August 12, 2009 I have to carry one when I'm on call. They get reception sometimes where a cell doesn't.
