Travis Gowan, always a Mid Valley favorite

Travis Gowan, always a Mid Valley favorite

By Joe Torosian

Good Morning!

T-minus-48 until “The Mid Valley Classic”

Not that I’m one of those “what have you done for me lately” type of fans but: Ramon Troncoso! Clean up your act!

I’ve learned to like Charlie Steiner, but I do miss Ross Porter…I like a deliberate, steady stream of facts and information…even if it means how Orlando Hudson hits in a dome during day games in the month of December…

From Tony LaRussa to Mark McGwire, to Matt Holliday the Oakland A’s have been very, very good to the St. Louis Cardinals…Then again Mark Mulder came from the A’s as well…so it kind of evens it out some…

Catching up with former Arcadia & Portland State quarterback Travis Gowan: “Things are going well. I am not playing right now I’m working with Coach (Ben) Noonan (OC) at Citrus to possibly play next season.”

Speaking of quarterbacks David Potts (Monrovia) and Austin Goldsmith (Duarte) are slated to return for the Owls in 2009…

Martin Lopez? Yeah, that dude’s alright…

Talk about going off the rails on a crazy train; Lane Kiffin…can’t you see him offering commentary on the MFN channel in a season or two? That’s the Montana Football Network.

I’ve come to respect Lebron James’ game, but when its easier to admit you’ve gone one toke over the line than to allow a video of yourself getting dunked on to make the rounds…then you’ve got problems…

Note to Ben Roethlisberger: Innocent or not, a settlement to make your accuser of rape go away is as good as an admission of guilt in the eyes of many…If she’s lying she needs to be destroyed because what she is attempting is a form of social murder…If she’s not lying…well…then dude give her, her dough cause your scum whether it goes to court or not…

We love having someone tell us to clean up our act. I know for a fact we have not mentioned word one about Sierra Vista football this spring/summer…and now I’m hearing about it: Dons defenders Jose Maldonado and Nathan Carrillo posted great numbers in 2008 and are back…and in a sea of chaos, which the Montview often is, that puts them in the hunt…

I still think “yeah” should be spelled “yah”…but that’s just me…Mr. Vegas…

Stay thirsty my friends…
