Sounds as though you are already saying "Wait till next year!"  You do know Vidor is still alive this year, don't you?

[Doggy Fresh]

That should make for a great match up for the Black and Gold of Nederland and the Gold and Black of Vidor... since a large majority of Nederland's Offense will be back and damn near all of it's Defense. Horrifying isn't it? ;D

He don't really know. Depends on when his foot heals and when he feels comfortable running on it. Maybe LCM but probably Central.

[bulldawg64]

thats good to hear hes a good back

[HubTx]

Bolinger is a good back for sure, but Stephenson filled in nicely last night... When you have Brentyn Clark running the way he did against Ozen, and great QB play from Quirante, it helps cover up for the loss of a guy like Bolinger...

Vidor is going to be a good football team that makes some noise in November, and they will be even better next year...

I'm not saying "wait until next year" at all, extremely proud of the playoff bound Pirates this year. I'm saying that this team is mostly juniors and sophomores, 5 - 1 overall, and 2 -1 in district. Nine starters on the #1 defense in this district are underclassmen. Now that's scary. And, my fine, non-rivalry Nederville friends, the "Black and Gold" Bowl will be at Ivan Croak Field next year and should be another nail biter down to the wire. Just saying.....

[Bigdog]

You still have 4 games left against some of the top teams in the district.  Don't count on the playoffs just yet.  That applies to all teams with the probable exception of Lumberton.

^What he said.^  We have the meat of schedule coming up.  We will see what kind of "shape " we are in then.

[bulldawg64]

it might be back at ned because its the
2 year realignment and the next year at vidor

[robanadana]

Please (yawn).....Im tired of playing three games in Nederland and then one in Vidor. If they re-align, it still needs to be at Ivan Croak.

[b]Yes, I said playoffs[/b]. I'm not one who lives on superstition and myth. If you want to be a winner, you have to act, feel and say you are a winner!!!! You want the big "L" stuck on your forehead, you act like it. [color=red][b]YOU GETTING THIS PIRATES!!!![/b][/color]

[football04]

I agree, If Vidor wants to be a playoff contender, talk the talk and walk the walk, act with confidence but not cockyness, you have to get the kids to expect to be in the playoffs and not settle for less. I think Vidor will make some noise this year.

Sorry, the misinformed don't know it as the Boneyard. Just wanted to emphasize that the UIL needs to play some of the games in Vidor.

No Rob,  This might be a shocker but I agree with you.  It is Ivan Croak field.  So somebody tell me why we shouldnt call it that?  Named after a great man in this community a couple of years ago.  Yes, after the re-alignment we should get the game at [b]Ivan Croak Stadium[/b]
