Dogs jump out 4-0, but a huge 7 run inning dooms the Dogs. Bubba Maxwell of Vidor had a heck of a game, error free at SS and closed the game for the save.[/quote]The kid certainly is a player.

ar09 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Great job Coach Green and the Vidor Pirates. Admin you are so right about the Maxwell kid he did a great job at ss and at the plate. It amazes me how the fans of the losing team always come up with excuses like blaming the umps the umps didnt beat the dogs they got out coached,out played and errors beat the dogs. Just give the team that beat you the credit they are due they beat the Dogs fair and square. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1696dogs Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Just to make myself clear, when I posted about theumps it was about bad calls on BOTH sides and I even said that when I posted it. I totally agree the dogs lost this one. The pirates scored more runs and that's what it comes down to. Never once did I blame umps for our loss. Just wanted to clear the air from my posts.

I know plenty of guys that do not have the time to commit to calling college ball but are plenty good enough to do it. If your day job pays you well and all the benefits that go with it, you don't screw that up taking off work to go call college ball.

NO ONE said anything about Vidor being district champs. This is ONE game but a game that WE won. We haven't beat Nederland in 2 years and when we do, all of a sudden we are district champs??? Get over it already! This game is in the books, Vidor won, Nederland lost! You guys look to prepare for PNG & we will do the same with Lumberton.

I said BEFORE the game that it didn't mean that much either way for either team, except it was the first game of district...I'm happy for Mojica and Hagler ( only ones I know)... What I'm more excited about is that it seems like this district is really gonna step it up competitively this year. That is good news for the four teams that do make the playoffs. Records don't make you better, good competition makes you better.....( BTW a wink should clue you in that I meant it in a Humorous way.....)

BWOOD Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Does everyone remember the game last year at Vidor?There was a play at second base that Vidor fans thought was a terrible call. The aftermath of the call was a coach getting ejected, Green getting confined to the dugout, the announcer being bashed by the Nederland fans and the guy working the clock being censored by the district. Well the tables are turned, the police had to escort the umpires off the field last night because several Nederland fans threading the home plate umpire and a guy who we all know has a player on the Nederland team telling the home plate umpire that he was going to wait for him in the parking lot.WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE OVER HOW [u]SOME[/u] OF THE NEDERLAND FAN ACTED LAST NIGHT?
