Vidor is the Rodney Dangerfield of 20-4a,  there is what 4 threads going now with them demanding respect.

You know bigdog your probably right Vidor could very well be considerd the "Rodney Dangerfield of 20-4a" on this board, because lets face it Vidor doesn't have a winning tradition, everybody knows that and you'll get no argument from me on that subject, but in my opinion the disrespect and disdain is quite a bit more deep-seated than High School Football. But since this is a high school football forum allow me to express my thoughts about Vidor football.
It is my opinion that if the Pirates are successful enough this year to make a deep playoff run, it could foster a culture that would be capable of changing not only how some view Vidor High school football, but the way the town of Vidor itself is perceived. A winning football team could be one of the means this town can maybe shake the stigma it has had to live with for so many years, a stain that most Vidor residents have tried to change one person and or one act at a time. These Pirates want to win for each other, their coaches and their city, but they also want to win for each and every player that in the past has ever put on a Vidor uniform, for those young men who worked hard every day at practice and gave 100% and left nothing on the field and may or may not have had winning seasons, but each one of those young men down through the years have left something for these present players to build on and if you listen close enough the pride they felt still echo's in the halls, and locker rooms and on the field at Pirate Stadium. And this 2011 team has begun to own that tradition of pride, they have vowed to gladly take up that burden and they will play every down not only with their strength, not just with their vision and dreams but with the strength and dreams and pride of every Pirate who has come before them, this is the attitude and resolve these present day Pirates are determined to bring to every game and If these young men can change the atmosphere of the football program, maybe that could be a catalyst that could in some small way help change the framework with which others use to judge the city or people of Vidor......Go Pirates

[b]P.S. [/b]  As for trying to get respect, You won't read any of my post asking for anybodies respect......respect is earned not given.
        But you can bet your bottom dollar the Pirates of 2011 will demand and earn their respect.

Because the posts about the young men have not been confirmed by either Nederland ISD or media.

Nobody broke rules per se, it is just the policy of SETXsports.com to not have discussion on its message board about any disciplinary action against a high school athlete in any manner until such action is either confirmed by the school district or corroborated by media reports.  It is just for legal protection of the site.

Vidor is considered the Cinderella team in their District! Nederland has the ability to come second in that format division. IMO Nederland will win in the closing minutes! 8)

Nederland- 36
Vidor- 34

no, it just smacks of desperation for you and your fellow vidor posters to start 4 threads trying to get respect.
[/quote]
You might wanna check again. AAW started two of those threads and last time I checked he wasn't a vidor poster.  ::)  ;D

I do not disagree with your post at all,  I would venture to say almost all teams play for thier teammates, city and coaches.  Also ,  I don't intend any disrespect to your city , coaches or team, and you will not see me post anything otherwise.  A few years back, maybe but not now.  I think most Nederland posters see Vidor making thier claims as our rival as an attempt to gain respect.  Also, you used my signature line, that will be 1.00 per use please. :)

[dawgnut]

Alright less than 24 hours and the game will be under way. I hope we don't have any serious melt downs before then and we see one of truly great games. But I truly expect a Dog win in the end.

How did the Bmt Enterprise break the story on Quirante being in Arizona. 

I think that story would have been best left untold.  ;)

[incognito]

bigdog,  LOL  your $1.00 is in the mail... ;)  I can't see how anybody from Vidor making some claim that Ned. is rival is in any way trying to earn respect, the way I see it the Pirates will earn respect by winning in district period. Vidor's claim to fame does not hinge on whether or not Ned. sees us as a rival......lol.  It really is entertaining that Ned. things so much of themselves that some rival affiliation with Ned. could enhance Vidor's legitimacy.    :o

Kind of strange isn't it that the media would be following the personal private lives of a high school football player.......whats next a expose of their love lives.  ???
