The Peterson Principle 5/6/13
Jonathan Quick and the Kings are the most exciting thing going right now for So Cal Sports fans
It’s tough being a sports fan in Southern California these days. The Lakers and the Clippers finished off disappointing seasons by being bounced in the first round. Both Mike D’Antoni and Vinny Del Negro are in danger of [...]

Why did Matt Barkley drop to the fourth round?
I know what they’re saying. He doesn’t have the arm strength. He isn’t mobile enough. He didn’t lead the Trojans to enough victories. But I still maintain they missed it with Matt Barkley.
He’s not a fourth round pick. If he went in the middle of the second [...]

The Bowl games continue through out this Holiday season. There have been some good (The Alamo Bowl) and some bad (The Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl.) Whatever happened to the Astro Bluebonnet Bowl?”
They didn’t play defense in the Alamo Bowl but I’ll take a 67-56 game over a 7-3 game any day. You got to [...]

Notes and observations from Christmas Weekend 2011:
It feels strange to have a Sunday in December with just one NFL Game. With Christmas falling on a Sunday all of the games were moved to Saturday the 24th leaving Green Bay and Chicago with the spotlight all to themselves on Sunday night.
It looks like that loss [...]

1.) Ohio State receives one year bowl ban and the loss of nine scholarships over the next three years.
2.) USC safety T.J. McDonald announced he will return for his senior season.
3.) UCLA Coach Jim L. Mora vows [...]

High School football season ended last weekend with the crowning of Monrovia and West Covina as CIF Champions for the second straight year. All that’s left for them is the celebrations and parades.
Speaking of parades Monrovia Principal Darvin Jackson said he would recognize the Mid Valley News this year at the Championship Parade. And [...]

It’s been a memorable week in sports – especially here in Southern California. And no I’m not talking about the Dodgers signing of Aaron Harang. There was the CIF Finals in the Mid-Valley and Southeast Divisions, big news out of Anaheim, and Los Angeles and there is a new chief in Westwood.
At USC [...]

Upon furthur review Lane Kiffin is the right guy for Trojans
By Tim Peterson
My first thought when USC announced the hiring of Lane Kiffin last week was why didn’t Matt Koffler get the job? But after coming to my senses and realizing that Koffler would never leave Rosemead for the Trojans my second thought was [...]

Jim Arellanes would have been a good fit at USC
We knew it would happen sooner or later. USC fans, like me, hoped it would be later but after a year in which the Trojans lost four games, and possible NCAA sanctions coming down the time was perfect for Pete Carroll to take his act [...]
