Whittier Christian Linebackers George Flynn and Rudy Robles, who is demanding more face time in The Mid
T-Minus-106 Days until “The Mid Valley Classic”
Good Afternoon!
Yes, the Suns’ Goran Dragic made a spectacular spin move last night against the Lakers… but I didn’t stop breathing after I saw it. I’ve seen others like it…it just didn’t blow me away.
Besides I see spin moves every Tuesday night when Villathedevil 360’s out of one previous statement after another.
Note to Zavala Family: We had a bang, bang show last night so it was my fault Wilson HC (and father of two) Brian Zavala didn’t extend appropriate props to his family last night.
So to Jaylyn and Jenna Zavala I extend a Mid Valley Sports apology from rushing your dad off camera last night…Come in next time with him…and we’ll do a segment with you…”Being the Daughter of a Coach”
That could work.
I don’t know why I had it in my head that Hoover quarterback A.J. Pule was a senior, dude’s got another year left and I’m pushing him out the door. My apologies, with that said its probably time for the joking around about Tornado football to slow down. Pule has talent.
I’m gonna watch the Stanley Cup…I like the Blackhawks versus Flyers face off… Reminds me of better NHL days when I knew the entire Los Angeles Kings roster from Glen Goldup to Syl Apps and felt chills when Forum crowds would chant for Rogie Vachon.
Herald trenchman Jeff Worthy
USC’s Ed Orgeron was out at Whittier Christian yesterday… I’m trying to think of worthy reason for him being there?
“How come you don’t have me on the show?” Said Herald linebacker Rudy Robles. “You’ve got Stephen (Anderson) and Jeff (Worthy) what about me?”
Besides being a terrific linebacker, Robles is a loyal Mid Valley guy and bragged of it by mentioning his fifth round selection by the Green Bay Packers in the Mid Valley Draft back in February.
For that sort of fandom, we need to give him a shot.
This was a great joke, but before I could get it posted I now I run the risk of looking weak but; “The reason the NFL put the Super Bowl in New York was because Anchorage wasn’t available.”
(Well all of the jokes can’t be good, you have to expect that once in a while.)
I don’t care where the Super Bowl is at…as long as its not in New Orleans. Besides everyone is always pushing for us to be more international, well the cannucks pay the Grey Cup in bad weather.
Speaking of college football…Michigan’s Rich Rodriguez is in trouble isn’t he? I’m a Michigan fan, but Michigan should have known what it was getting in Rodriguez.
Rodriguez is the guy whose offensive style is so important he couldn’t find room for an adjustment to keep Ryan Mallet on campus.
Mallet is currently playing for the Arkansas Razorbacks and threw 30 touchdowns against only seven picks in 2009. The Wolverine quarterback Tate Forcier threw 13 touchdown passes and ten picks for a team that finished 5-7.
Truly no player is bigger than the game…but neither is a system.
Locally reflect on what D.J. “Please to Meet You Hope You Guess My Name” Mackinnon did at Arroyo. When the talent dictated one way, he ran the ball. When the talent dictated something different, he passed the ball. The result was winning and two decades worth of CIF appearances.
Did you know New York Knicks center Eddie Curry made ten million bucks this season? Did you know he’s played all of ten games the last two seasons? Did you know he defaulted on a $570,000 personal loan he took out in February 2008, promising to pay it back in five months at a nearly 85 percent annual interest rate—which is legal in Nevada?
Last question: Did you that it is impossible for money to buy you happiness in life?
Last Add Brian Zavala: After his spot on the show Zavala explained to us what a “spirit pack” consisted of—essentially work out gear. I hate that title though “spirit pack”…When I heard that I half expected it to include a pennant, a key chain, and maybe a pad to sit on at the stadium.
We were discussing what would be in a Mid Valley Sports “spirit pack”: One fun size Snickers…A bottle of Refreshe water… A staff photo… Stationary; business card from a staffer, and some couch pizza from Big Tony’s place…
Last Add Whittier Christian: I’ve believed that those who abide by the axiom of ‘Love at First Sight’ are fools… Except maybe with your children, falling in love at first sight is a major roll of the dice… I took my first trip out to see the Heralds practice yesterday and I was impressed…Not going to give my heart away, but these guys look really good.
The next bad pass Stephen Anderson throws will be his first, because I sure didn’t see one on Tuesday.
Really Last Add Whittier Christian: Did you know with a 32-man roster the Heralds played 22 starters last year? (Worthy played a little on the offensive line in the post-season)… Meaning they had no two-way starters in 2009…
From Muir OC Antyone Sims about Jim Brownfield: “Coach Brownfield Is the standard for coaching and I”m proud to say that he is and will always be a Mustang!”
