dawgbacker Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 I must have struck a nerve with you to get two re posts out of that! :'( Who cares if your a "setx pollster", you cant even get your facts right, Vidor went to the playoffs two out of the last three years. And let me make it clear since you cant understand what im talking about, I am not referring to the poll, I am referring to you degrading Vidor for no reason other than to make yourself feel better. And im sure with your unbiased polling that Vidor would be at the top of your poll....we know better than that :) :)
Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 i dont see anyone degrading any team on this thread. smh.
dawgbacker Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 When you've made the playoffs about 5 times in 85 years, only made it past the first round twice and won their first playoff game since John F. Kennedy was the president then it is hard for some people to think otherwise. There are many storied programs around SE Texas but Vidor's usual story is a [b]perennial loser [/b] or another hard luck year.Sounds like degrading to me ??? ???

I've heard worse from their own fanbase years ago. ;)
dawgbacker Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 Thats the problem this is not the Vidor football of years ago, but some people wont move on. Let me ask you this, what good does it do to get on here and call a bunch of kids perinnial losers and bring up the past when theses kids are trying to blaze a new path?.......none! I guess some people feel better when they beat an already dead horse by bringing up the past and dwell on it. These kids have to start somewhere and I just dont understand why they should be degraded from a past that none of them has really known. Just my opinion!
tvc184 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 Yeah, I agree with forgetting the past. Nederland did not beat PNG for like 19 years in the 60's and 70's. I would like to completely forget about that. I want to start history at about the 1993 season. Nederland leads Mid-County Madness in the all time records 13-6.[IMG]http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j108/tvc184/Smileys/sHa_thumb2.gif[/img]Great idea dawgbacker. Typically, it is not reality but I like it.

Razor Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 sounds like dawgbacker needs to change their screen name to pirate apologist...no need to get your drawers all bunched up...this is all in good fun and no one is unneccesarily degrading vidor...no one seems to recall the inordinate amount of smack that vidor talked towards Nederland last year (and I am sure this year will be more of the same).Look, vidor is going to be good this year and make a run at the DC, IMO...these polls mean very little if you ask me and do nothing but provide some good message board fodder for those of us who are ready for football but have nothing else to talk about yet since the games are not here yet...if you are laying awake at night worried or feeling slighted about why your team isn't "ranked" then I can't help you.

Rightly or wrongly, the guys in the state polls especially those whose organizations do not have a real presence in either the Houston area or the Triangle, look at a team's history. And in the case of Vidor, they are a team that has had. outside of the last few years, mostly a record of futility. It is very similar to the situation that the Nederland basketball team faced last year as they failed to crack the TABC poll during the season despite their success.The success of the Pirates over the last few years is something that has been celebrated by this board as a whole and tvc specifically. It was a thrill to be part of the broadcast team that called their victory over Montgomery last year and as I currently have family members that are employed specifically by the Vidor ISD athletic department, I have reason to wish for their continued success. But outside of our small little area of the state, two playoff wins in three years after a playoff drought of 8 years and one of 23 years before that is what is on paper and for most of these folks paper is all that they see.It is not an attempt at bashing, it is laying out fact in giving an explanation to some folks, who even though they have by history on this board a RABID loyalty to Vidor, evidently had a lot less problem with tvc's explanation than you did, as to why the Pirates are not in preseason polls. If you find that degrading, perhaps an order of an extra layer of skin is in order, because your current set is a bit too thin.

mypooh Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 These rankings are as useless as the Preseason College Football poll. They should save them tell the middle of the year.

Matthew328 Posted July 26, 2012 Report Posted July 26, 2012 Just one clarification, the district previews were all done by local writers and the state rankings reflect those previews. David Coleman who works for the Port Arthur newspaper wrote the 20-4A preview.

Bigdog Posted July 26, 2012 Report Posted July 26, 2012 Yeah, August never made the playoffs. I played for him for 2 years unfortunely. We payed CE King back a couple of times for '88 though.
Honest Abe Posted July 27, 2012 Report Posted July 27, 2012 In defense of the Nederland basketball program, we have now won district three straight years now with 4 starters returning. History would suggest that normally, but Nederland basketball is no longer a joke. Having said that, I would not be surprised if the Ned basketball team is not ranked in the preseason top 25.[quote name="dawgbacker" post="1239597" timestamp="1343185571"]TVC....... I guess by your scientific theory that means that Nederland Basketball will not be ranked next year? Seeing how they have been terrible for years in basketball and have only recently had success under Coach English, I guess they will be in the same boat as Vidor football! I know you will get on here and say that its not the same thing...blah..blah...blah! The truth about it is guys like you get on here and bash other schools, namely Vidor because it makes you somehow feel better about yourself. You cant stand Vidor getting a little credit, so what do you do?... you bash them. Everybody in the area knows that Vidor has not had the best football tradition, just like Nederland does not have the best basketball tradition, but I bet you anything Coach Mathews and Coach English have heard plenty from guys like you, im just glad they are smart enough to not listen. ;) ;) ;)[/quote]
