Nooooo! You mean to tell me that NEDERLAND is not a LOCK for the state title ;D

Don't recall anyone making such proclamations.  ::) Nederland fans are proud of what has been accomplished over the past 3 years, and that's about it!  8)

[/quote]Their fans will just settle with a district win for this year. Not looking beyond. ;)

Since not many outside of Nederland thought we would be doing this well, this season will be an accomplishment regardless of how far we go (kinda like the Houston Texans this season). Now next year, like the Texans, we'll have a much higher bar set, and expectations will be much higher. Now that the topic is on the table, I will predict at least 2 playoff victories. 3 (wins) would send us back to the regional tourney, which I honestly would not be completely surprised if that happens. I know many of you would be surprised, but not me.  8)

Sour grapes. Its really sad, if some cant be winners they get their satisfaction from "dogging" those who are.

On another note.....Nederland hasn't WON anything!!! 8)....Calm down....

How's 27 straight? That's eating some people alive and I love it.

Nah...its kinda like remembering the New Oreleans Saints when their fans wore bags on their heads, then watching them have success..Oh, but wait, they actually WON a championship, so thats a bad analogy!  ;D ;D....my bad! Of course I am happy for the Coach E, and the bulldogs!  8)

The thing is, we haven't won anything yet except district and have a good win streak going. But even that is tearing some people a new one, and like I said, I love it.

On a serious note, I think some just look at it as odd, because its new and totally unexpected by many...What if LUMBERTON started winning district 20-4A the way that its set now, and won 27 or more district games in a row? YOU BADDOG would be shocked too!!  ;)...You're a Nederland fan, so its not quite as shocking, however, its a proud feeling, as you very well should be....I am happy for Coach E, but I would be lying if I said it didnt seem strange to me...NEDERLAND? BASKETBALL? WINNING? Those three words never went together in the past....Times change, and teams do too, apparently! 8)

I knew Coach E was doing some things to get his program going but I never suspected it would turn this successful so fast. 27-0? C'mon thats crazay. Nederland is a football school, or was :-\

Nederland has actually been much more successful in baseball over the years. I don't follow baseball much, but I believe Ned baseball has made the state tourney 2-3 times, and played in the Title game once. People think of Nederland and football, but this past Fall was the 1st District Title since the mid 60's? Maybe BadDog can confirm those stats?

Guess that depends on your interpretation of "won anything".  Last I checked, there is a certain 27 game streak that is causing many detractors a considerable amount of consternation as evidenced by their efforts to discredit what Nederland has done.  Of course, if Cotton Robinson was still coaching at Buna, there is NO WAY Nederland could have done this well. >:(

    • I have no issue with that however…. Rick Perry, although seemingly not really popular even with Republicans, was almost impossible to beat. The Texas conservatives just needed that tough, real conservative with an already popular voting base. Someone that has been elected to both Texas state office and federal office.  Boom! In 2010 in steps Kay Bailey Hutchison, a popular sitting US Senator and former Texas Treasurer. So she has been elected, statewide in both a state political position and nationally as a senator. A Rasmussen poll in 2009 showed Hutchison with a 40% to 38% lead over Perry. She had high profile endorsements as did Perry. Hutchison was endorsed by the likes of G H W Bush, Nolan Ryan, Roger Staubach, etc. If people are actually going to listen to endorsements, those are some fairly well thought of people in Texas. Primary day was between Perry, Hutchison and Debra Medina. Hutchison was beaten by Perry 51% to 30% and he got enough votes to avoid a runoff. Obviously, that has no bearing on today. It does show that just because a person is very popular and already elected to national office from Texas such as Kay Bailey Hutchison, it does not ensure a good showing in the polls against an incumbent. It will be interesting for sure. 
    • WOW what a game. just got home, I'm gonna sleep with a big smile all night. PNG QB passes were spot on tonight, lil #17 freshman receiver had huge catches at critical times in the game. # 44 had a couple of huge catches including the 'jump pass' on 4th down for a touchdown.  #4 made big plays at key times on both sides of the ball, he is a beast. #11 played his usual consistent game with big time catches and a couple of good punts and a good job of just falling on a bobbled kick reception. #27 probably had 125 yards or so rushing. The defensive backs did a good job, bending but not breaking including the interception in the end zone. I thought the TH coaches messed up not trying to score with the high power players they have when they got the fumble right before half with 45 seconds or so on the clock and 3 TO left, if they would have scored then it would have broke our backs. I know it was 90 yards to go but they could cover the field in 3 or 4 plays. This is one of the most exciting wins in PNG's long history of exciting wins. Oh yeah kudos to the fans for getting in to the game at key times and in my Opinion making a big difference. 😂
    • To the 41 individuals that picked TH…..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Round 4 here we come!
