Expect better from me? Look, I'm not a moderator. If you have an issue w/rinjt1954, then report the post to a moderator and let them decide if it is considering bashing. I'm just providing ONE view of this post. The post from 1954 does not personally attack coach Matthews in this post-imHo.

Jeff Matthews is going to get beat in the playoffs, because he don't want to pass. You can't win the big ones just running in this league.

Every team except one loses in the playoffs each year. I don't see this comment as slanderous against another person, it's merely an opinion of what will possibly happen b/c Vidor rely's on the run so much.with that said, I have to agree. Not many one dimensional teams make it very far in the playoffs these days.

So-called "one-dimensional" teams don't last in the playoffs because someone finds a way to stop whatever they are good at.  But, really who has stopped Vidor's running game so far?  Nederland, sort of...  There is absolutely no reason to suddenly start throwing the ball when you can run all over the other opponents easily.

No you didn't insult mathews directly but you did insult his coaching/playing style. And that is against the rules. Plain and simple.

And to all of yall saying you can't make it too far in the playoffs with a run heavy offense check your stats. Liberty Hill won two state championships back to back in 2006 and 2007 while running the Slot T offense.

No, not me. I did not say a word about Matthews. I merely commented on 1954's comment about Vidor getting beat in the playoffs. I am commenting from a neutral perspective. As I mentioned, they are likely to lose at some point since only one team comes out of the playoffs undefeated, right? I think they will win 2-3 playoff games, depending on their draw. I wish Vidor the best, but I don't see them winning the state title this year.

Ok. Just makin' sure you know that I was not the person who made the initial comment. I know u said nothing about winning state, I was just trying to bring some perspective to the comments.
I'm sure Matthews knows the limits and abilities of his team. If the passing game was a strength, i'm sure he would go to it. Since it's not, he's doing what most good coaches do by playing to the strength of his team, which is running the ball.

Honest Abe, if I indicated that you were the poster, I am sorry.  I did not mean to do that.  It just seems that when people start bashing or questioning our coaches this board will let it go on and on.  Let someone say something about another coach or his staff and the post and the poster goes.

In my opinion rinjt1954 clearly violated forum rules, we can disagree about that and cause no harm.

Awesome game last night, Pirates!  Thank you for showing me a fun game.  Well worth the 800 mile trek.  Love my Pirates and hope to do that again!  Second year in a row for it.  Both of my boys loved seeing the game and halftime was amazing as usual.  Thanks for the memories!

Hey mytwocents, this is just a case of jealousy breeds contempt. I really don't know why we even answer people who hate to see Vidor win regardless of the sport. One of the reasons I quit posting some years back was some of the crud I saw written on these boards about our hometown. Jeff Mathews is the best AD in the area, one hell of a coach, and we'll see just how far the slot-T and that defense takes us. I'm sorta enjoying the naysayers this time. By the way, I seem to recall Liberty Hill winning state in 2007 and 2008 using the same offense....

Seems to me that no one can stop that wing t, so why change? And one dementional? I.e. Wemberly 2005, LaMarque 93-98. And on And on. Matthews has his kids believing in the system. That is sometimes all you need.

I don’t think it was bashing either.  I think he was stating his opinion of the program in Vidor and its history.  If we want to change that opinion than we need to show that we earn it through winning.  The idea that 1) We should have some respect out there from other teams in this area or state is crazy.  We haven’t done anything yet.  2) Respect is earned not given.  We keep winning then it will be earned.  and 3)  Does it really matter if you have other teams respect.  The respect from other teams never wins ball games.  The team does.  Lastly,  The Vidor coaches obviously read these forums.  If the stuff that is said on here bothers them either don’t read it or get thicker skin.  Let the repercussions of the post roll.  ::)

Honest Abe, if I indicated that you were the poster, I am sorry.  I did not mean to do that.  It just seems that when people start bashing or questioning our coaches this board will let it go on and on.  Let someone say something about another coach or his staff and the post and the poster goes.

In my opinion rinjt1954 clearly violated forum rules, we can disagree about that and cause no harm.

Ok. Just makin' sure you know that I was not the person who made the initial comment. I know u said nothing about winning state, I was just trying to bring some perspective to the comments.
I'm sure Matthews knows the limits and abilities of his team. If the passing game was a strength, i'm sure he would go to it. Since it's not, he's doing what most good coaches do by playing to the strength of his team, which is running the ball.

No, not me. I did not say a word about Matthews. I merely commented on 1954's comment about Vidor getting beat in the playoffs. I am commenting from a neutral perspective. As I mentioned, they are likely to lose at some point since only one team comes out of the playoffs undefeated, right? I think they will win 2-3 playoff games, depending on their draw. I wish Vidor the best, but I don't see them winning the state title this year.

Expect better from me? Look, I'm not a moderator. If you have an issue w/rinjt1954, then report the post to a moderator and let them decide if it is considering bashing. I'm just providing ONE view of this post. The post from 1954 does not personally attack coach Matthews in this post-imHo.

This is forum rule 18, or does this only apply to other coaches.  I would expect better from you!

Jeff Matthews is going to get beat in the playoffs, because he don't want to pass. You can't win the big ones just running in this league.

Would someone please delete this mess.  It's uncalled for.

Every team except one loses in the playoffs each year. I don't see this comment as slanderous against another person, it's merely an opinion of what will possibly happen b/c Vidor rely's on the run so much.with that said, I have to agree. Not many one dimensional teams make it very far in the playoffs these days.

No you didn't insult mathews directly but you did insult his coaching/playing style. And that is against the rules. Plain and simple.

And to all of yall saying you can't make it too far in the playoffs with a run heavy offense check your stats. Liberty Hill won two state championships back to back in 2006 and 2007 while running the Slot T offense.

I never said we would win state either and my comment wasn't directly meant towards you Abe. It was meant towards everyone that is saying Vidor's Slot T offense isn't good enough for the playoffs.

I don’t think it was bashing either.  I think he was stating his opinion of the program in Vidor and its history.  [b]If we want to change that opinion than we need to show that we earn it through winning.[/b]  The idea that 1) We should have some respect out there from other teams in this area or state is crazy.  [b]We haven’t done anything yet.[/b]  2) Respect is earned not given.  We keep winning then it will be earned.  and 3)  Does it really matter if you have other teams respect.  The respect from other teams never wins ball games.  The team does.  Lastly,  The Vidor coaches obviously read these forums.  If the stuff that is said on here bothers them either don’t read it or get thicker skin.  Let the repercussions of the post roll.  ::)

So 6-1 and taking the leading team in 20-4A to the wire with one of our leading rushers out isn't doing anything?  ::)  8)

Okay TITAN POWER

    • I don’t know about any rivalry there because I don’t live there but although LP and DP play in different classifications they still have a lot in common.  I mean, both beat Barber’s Hill this year!
    • I’m super excited for this game.  PNG has the team and game plan that will slow TH down.  No way we can stop them the entire game, but I feel if we slow them down we can win similar to what we did last year to Lake Creek and SOC.  
    • Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.
    • I don't think it's 6-5 maybe 4-3
    • Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
