Fanview Lite: October 21, 2010

Good Afternoon!

To fans and foes who keep driving up our hit counts…I thank you…

***

Yawn.

Is Rosemead at Arroyo tomorrow night really Matt Koffler versus Jim Singiser? Is it Matt Fregoso versus Mike Vasquez? No, I think it’s Knights OC Chris MacMillan versus Panthers DC Marc Paramo.

Last year Arroyo had the superior offensive team, they do this year as well, and the final was 14-12. If Paramo can prevent the quick strikes, keep the scoring compact, the upset is possible.

…and a Mead victory would be an upset…

…and if that occurs you can go talk to His Arroyo Baldness…

***

Same holds true for Baldwin Park-Covina tonight… Someone actually floated the idea of the Braves Mario Rodriguez getting votes for Mid-Valley Division MVP…

I said he’s (Rodriguez) certainly making a case.

***

Last Add Rosemead: Quarterback Matt Macias is warming up…And Steven San Miguel becomes more dangerous each week.

***

I like La Serna tonight over Santa Fe…Although if I get bad parking, I might have to roll over to the Chiefs.

***

Go Giants! The spirit of Greg Minton lives!

Torosian’s Law # 1: “Who’s gonna drive?”

Torosian’s Law #2: “Who’s buying the grub?”

Torosian’s Law #3: “Is there parking?”

***

I saw Schurr’s late drive against Bell Gardens last week on tape…Aaron Cantu made some big time throws…And those throws came with not just the game but a significant part of the season on the line.

Impressive.

***

Alhambra, which faces Schurr this week, has won four in a row for the first time since starting the 2007 undefeated. Josh Mendoza is only a sophomore at quarterback and playing very well…New HC Lou Torres? He may be on track for coach of the year.

Don’t sell the Moors short.

***

Interesting how quick Peterson slithered off the Mt. View bandwagon…

***

Guilty: We have not given enough love to Azusa defensive end Edwin Garcia who is quietly having a great season for the Aztecs…then again it seems like everything Azusa does is on the quiet side.

***

Maranatha should have the match up advantage with Valley Christian, but it won’t help if they haven’t shaken off the Whittier Christian loss…

In a four game league season, like the Olympic, the Minutemen have no room for error.

Natha…Matt Marbach game winning field goal.

***

Tonight is the kind of night you got to love natural grass…Wet, muddy…marvelous…

***

Last Add Mooney: In regards to “Mooney Resigns at San Marino” as the back and forth began about resignation versus administrative leave… I dropped in a clarifier in the comment box…I don’t believe I ‘slandered’ Mike Mooney…and going back to scrub it would have been about me covering my own backside…and trying to pretend like it never happened.

This is why we allow posts to go through ripping on me or key members of the staff. If we make a mistake or if a story changes we have to take the slings and arrows. I shared about the confusion-mixed messages in the comment box but left the original story up…Let the reader see it and respond.

***

Note to Readers: Speaking of slander, if you want to give an opinion please post… but we will not allow character assassination to go through. Whether we write it or allow it to be posted…that would be slanderous and we would be guilty.

***

If I gave a buck to a staffer to monitor every comment that has come through in the last few weeks, that staffer would be moving into Bill Gates’ neighborhood.

Stay thirsty my friends…
