Ozen beat PNG by 29 last Friday.[/quote]Ozen most deff gonna come strong as ive seen at prac.. good hard work and deterination words of Keyione Blackman
Honest Abe Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Posted February 11, 2011 Sounds like Ozen is hungry for the upset. I'm sure English will have them ready and motivated for an undefeated district record!
adminbaberuth Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 [quote name="ForeverADog" post="964020" timestamp="1297351948"]For Nederland undefeated champs please see a baseball, softball, or volleyball board. Never in basketball. [/quote]don't slight soccer, cross country, swimming and drama.
ForeverADog Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Good point. I was just trying to say that we have always sucked in basketball.
Honest Abe Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Posted February 11, 2011 Definitely want to give props to the boys soccer team winning district for 15+ years in a row. I know MANY of those years they were undefeated.
NHS83LU87 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 [quote name="ForeverADog" post="964378" timestamp="1297392355"]Good point. I was just trying to say that we have always sucked in basketball. [/quote]Not always! We have had some teams that were competitive but would come in 2nd or 3rd when only one team went to the playoffs. However, this is one of the better teams Nederland has had in a long time.
dogs14 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 in cross country we win every year this year it was the first 6 places ours out of our 7 players.
Michele Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 DOGS are ready to give a good showing against OZEN tonight... will be a good game. Good luck to both teams and no injuries.DOGS get the Win.
Honest Abe Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Posted February 11, 2011 Going to be another packed house-better arrive early.

I welcome Ozen fans to make the short 15 minute drive to the Dawg Dome. If it is anything like the last time these two met (at Ozen where there were twice as many Ned fans), I predict 4 times more Nederland fans than Ozen fans tonight!

ForeverADog Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 No but I think you get my point. We sucked when I played, and for the majority of the 50 years before that. Don't over analyze a simple post.

Bulldog10 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 They did make the playoff in 1993!!!!!

ricostorm Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Nederland will win this one, without Green
CThoops Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Anyone who has seen the Nederland Bulldogs play basketball this year can say that this one of the best teams in the program's history.. One of the few groups to ever win a tournament, few groups to know what the playoffs are like, and now they have a chance to finish off an amazing district season by going undefeated.. Congrats to all the Dogs.. Now finish the job tonight against Ozen and against LCM next week ;)

This group of seniors and Coach English has really turned basketball around in Nederland. Does that make my point clear enough?

First you said Nederland has ALWAYS sucked in basketball and now you're conceding that they didn't suck last season. Are you sure you want to stop there?You can make the point that this Nederland team is very, very good without criticizing ALL of Nederland's past teams. You make statements such as "no team has ever won" in the playoffs and basketball is the one sport that Nederland "has never been good until now". Obviously, recent teams have won playoff games. And going way back, Nederland has in fact, played in a state championship game. So apparently Nederland hasn't always sucked in basketball. Does this make my point clear enough?

Before that, we have never been good at basketball and never won playoff games. I was not trying to criticize all of Nederland's past teams. The question was "when is the last time Nederland went undefeated in district?" I simply was saying it hasn't happened in basketball. It shouldn't be blown out of proportion. Im not trying to bring down every other team. I was on 2 of those teams, why would I want to bring myself down? I'll say it like this: This is the best Nederland team ever. No other team has ever been this good. I hope that is better. Didn't think it was that big of a deal though. Let's go guys! We have a lot of work left to do. Get it done tonight and all through February!
