    Sorta interseting sorta sad. Fullerton CC football won a national championship game a few days ago I guess. It was played at Yorba Linda High. Interesting in that few knew, sad in that few cared. Enjoy high school boys. After that you’re Al Bundy.

    If you are a high school coach contemplating quitting do it now. Don’t wait around for some unknown reason. Pull the plug and split like these guys. Plus existing strong programs should hire within. It seems to work out better.

    #1 Now that’s 2 moves that make sense.
    #10 What’s with the bromance between Jones and Romo? Jones has always said Romo is the best qb in the NFL, even when he was losing. Hope someone is watching him for Alzheimers.

    Moschetti is right; the Mats need a spark. That fourth quarter comeback against La Serna was too timid.
