Cal HC Jim Arnold selling The Mid a bill of goods in July about how his team (currently 3-1) was going to finish 2-8 in 2011. "We're just really young."
Good Afternoon!
You heard it hear first, Monrovia rights the ship against Paramount.
Did you know a team starting a drive from its own 35 is three times more likely to score than a team than a team starting at its own 20?
On this date in 1961 Covina and Baldwin Park played to a 6-6 tie at BP. The Colts scored in the first quarter when Bill Tucker went 60-yards to Howard Barkley. The Braves knotted things in the second quarter when they recovered a Covina fumble at the 11 yard line. Jack Holquin ran 10-yards on the first play and then plunged in from a yard out for the game tying score.
Maybe St. Paul’s bus will break down before getting to Schurr.
Really, Brett Favre? You wonder if old number “4” remembers the last pass he threw as a Green Bay Packer? Not only did it open the door for Aaron Rodgers, but it sent the Giants to the Super Bowl to face New England.
I get the feeling Bill Belichick was salivating at the idea of facing Favre in Super Bowl 42.
…you heard it hear last if Monrovia doesn’t.
Cal is really good and should do well against Montebello this week. You have to love the play of Condor linebacker Miguel Cardiel…a Bad Dude.
Yes, truly, Burroughs at Arcadia is a gem…But the most exciting game of the night could be be out at Bell Gardens when they face visiting South El Monte…
Did you know if you go to lunch with Peterson you are three times more likely to pay for both meals instead of just your own?
Note to Pasadena: This is your window…make your move now.
Last Add C-Town & BP: Because the Braves are traditionally very physical they could have a chance against the Colts if Billy Livingston does not play. Livingston plays Covina rolls…If Livingston out then there’s room for an upset.
For Los Altos (playing Rowland) and Diamond Bar (playing Diamond Ranch) season has reached critical mass. Neither wants to be 0-2 at the start of Hacienda play. Especially the Conquerors with D-Ranch, WestCo, and Bonita still on the schedule.
Bonita, no doubt, is loving its bye week.
First Question about the Bearcats: Why are people so nervous about the passing game? Tanner Diebold has eight touchdown passes to one interception. Those are hardly Rex Grossman numbers.
Second Question about the Bearcats: Is anyone playing better for Eric Podley than Cameron Griffin?
Troy Aikman is right, Devin Hester should get Hall of Fame consideration…or was he talking about Jessie Hester?
Under Joel Sanchez El Monte is 0-8 in the fifth game of each season from 2003 through 2010.
Last Add Lions: El Monte is 0-4 against Cerritos all-time. All four meetings coming from 1994-1997 when the Dons were briefly in the Mission Valley League.
Final Note: Cerritos was booted out of the MVL when Gabrielino joined in 1998. Ironically the Eagles beat the Dons, 35-20, in Zero Week this year.
Did you know if you go to lunch with Big Tony you are three times more likely finish your lunch before him? (Because the dude never stops talking…and I mean that in a loving way. I got nothing but love for the Big Antoine!)
Final Add Rex Grossman: You know your team is hurting when you pick Grossman off twice and still lose at home.
Really Last Add El Monte: Brandon Martinez scrambles for two scores and hits Memo Silva over the top in a 42-21 victory.
The Dude abides…
