No doubt the Bears are a good team, but they have not gotten to the meat of their schedule yet. Salad days are over, we will see how good the Bears are in the coming weeks.

some of the meatier teams coming up have looked more like filet mignon than t-bones this year.  i'm kinda thinking the bears have a pretty decent shot of making it out of district with only a couple of losses, but who knows.  there's always a lot of parity in this district.

I wouldn't quite call Nacogdoches & Lumberton salad. With an offense averaging 45 ppg and a now sleeping defensive giant that just woke up, LCM's the team to beat - and it won't be easy.

Lumberton is a pretty good team but they got what they deserved after the head coach didn't kick a kid off the team after he called another player a monkey. Rascism gets you nowhere.

I remember years back LCM would start district 5-0 several times.That's when they schedual weak teams and when district started I don't think they won a game.

This team is for real.Might not when em all but it ain't that far fetched.

Maybe not Lumberton, but Nacogdoches is salad.  I do give LCM credit though.  I had them making the playoffs, but after the last win, they are even better than I expected them to be this year.

As to the verbal racism...I know it exists...even among 6 & 7 year olds.  Coaching a Pop Warner flag game in 1996,  I overheard a couple of young kids from "Bird land" (we were playing at their field) talking to one another during half time.  One said to the other..."I can't beleive you let that little "n" outrun you".  My team mom, who is African American, overheard this as she was taking the 2nd half roster to the press box, and I apologized for the other team's kids, not knowing what else to do.  She said "I don't let it bother me...they don't have any power ever me, if I don't let them".

She was a strong person, and a wise one as well, but what happens in the heat of the moment in a football game?  Who gets a flag?  Does anyone?  Thi is one of those teachable moments, when we can, as parents and fans, point in the right direction, or ignore it as "no big deal".  In the case of the latter, I guess it just happens to be which side of the issue you are on...

    • I have no issue with that however…. Rick Perry, although seemingly not really popular even with Republicans, was almost impossible to beat. The Texas conservatives just needed that tough, real conservative with an already popular voting base. Someone that has been elected to both Texas state office and federal office.  Boom! In 2010 in steps Kay Bailey Hutchison, a popular sitting US Senator and former Texas Treasurer. So she has been elected, statewide in both a state political position and nationally as a senator. A Rasmussen poll in 2009 showed Hutchison with a 40% to 38% lead over Perry. She had high profile endorsements as did Perry. Hutchison was endorsed by the likes of G H W Bush, Nolan Ryan, Roger Staubach, etc. If people are actually going to listen to endorsements, those are some fairly well thought of people in Texas. Primary day was between Perry, Hutchison and Debra Medina. Hutchison was beaten by Perry 51% to 30% and he got enough votes to avoid a runoff. Obviously, that has no bearing on today. It does show that just because a person is very popular and already elected to national office from Texas such as Kay Bailey Hutchison, it does not ensure a good showing in the polls against an incumbent. It will be interesting for sure. 
    • WOW what a game. just got home, I'm gonna sleep with a big smile all night. PNG QB passes were spot on tonight, lil #17 freshman receiver had huge catches at critical times in the game. # 44 had a couple of huge catches including the 'jump pass' on 4th down for a touchdown.  #4 made big plays at key times on both sides of the ball, he is a beast. #11 played his usual consistent game with big time catches and a couple of good punts and a good job of just falling on a bobbled kick reception. #27 probably had 125 yards or so rushing. The defensive backs did a good job, bending but not breaking including the interception in the end zone. I thought the TH coaches messed up not trying to score with the high power players they have when they got the fumble right before half with 45 seconds or so on the clock and 3 TO left, if they would have scored then it would have broke our backs. I know it was 90 yards to go but they could cover the field in 3 or 4 plays. This is one of the most exciting wins in PNG's long history of exciting wins. Oh yeah kudos to the fans for getting in to the game at key times and in my Opinion making a big difference. 😂
    • To the 41 individuals that picked TH…..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Round 4 here we come!
