Coaching for Nederland needs to improve if Nederland has any chances for competing in the district. I was very close to the bench at Vidor along with several parents and their reactions were not very favorable for the coaching staff. I watched as both offense and defense came off the field several times feeling defeated and not one coach went to the bench to try and lift these young mens spirits or give them any encouragement.

Just my opinion but a game has 4 quarters not 3 1/2 or 3 3/4 quarters. These young men play until the final second ticks off the clock. I hate to see the stands starting to empty before the game is over and all the negative comments being made. How do you think the players feel to turn around and see their supposed fans leaving the game early because they are being defeated. Staying another few minutes and supporting their team regardless of winning or loosing is what a fan is suppose to do. I have  seen the play of the year happen for a player in the final minute of the game. Another thing we all applaud and support the half time show and all the kids involved but when half time is over most of "their" fans leave cause their shirts say it's all about the half time. This is just my opinion but, stick around its more fun than going to get something to eat. :D


[/quote]I agree to a point, I would say most of the fans that were leaving early were the over 50 crowd and had to get to Luby's before they closed !

Hold on a minute young buck. I'm in the 50+ crowd. Lubys closes at 8:30. Some of us old farts have a bedtime or have to take meds or some other lame excuse. Win or lose, I'm gonna be there until the band finishes their last Cherokee. Back to topic, the Indians get back on the winning track with a huge win.

I am in that 50+ crowd too. I have to leave because my Viagra is only good for 4 hours.

That gives new meaning to "getting up for the game."

I have had season tickets for the last 14 years and I admit I miss some games each year - but I never miss PNG - NED and I stay till the end. These kids play hard each week, but this game brings out the best of each one. Coach's are always saying STAY FOCUSED - ok fans STAY FANS till the end.

Hey Surfer dud don't judge people unless you know the truth! My mother is near 80 and has supported the Dogs for most of her life. She goes to the games with my wife and I and she hates to leave early but she doesn't want to get knocked down by one of you testosterone laden stadium jockeys that have to run down the stands because they may be late for some after game festivities! Hopefully you will live long enough to get old and have bad knees and we will see how you handle it.

Sonnier will be back Friday night
[/quote]

Yes.......and to his great disappointment, he will not be the starting safety!

What?  Why wouldn't you put your Senior, All-District safety in there?  

If that's true, it's good news for PNG.

You think I just sat around and made it up???????  I am his mother and that is the message he relayed to me on Monday after practice, and yes....... he was greatly disappointed.  Coaches are concerned that after being out for about three weeks with a concussion Trev would not be ready to play both sides.  He was told he would be playing offense.  Trev says he is going to practice hard and hope they reconsider.

Wasn't trying to start anything, just expressing my son's disappointment.  One thing for sure, Trev will play his heart out at whichever position he is asked to play this Friday.  C'mon Dogs get fired up!

If you are his mom, then you probaly know...I just assumed you were a PNG fan trying to start some crap and I had heard from what I thought was a pretty reliable source that he would be starting...it is possible that they meant offense only...either way, glad to have him back in our lineup in whatever capacity.

I guess what I really should do is apologize to you for assuming you were a PNG fan...I would never want to be called that..lol... ;D ;D ;D

Not sure about that, after watching this game for many years I have found that what everyone thinks is going to happen doesn't, the defense that is suspect steps up and the offense that is dominating tanks so be ready for anything it's MCM nothing else in the world like it!
