Good Afternoon!<\/p>\n

Does La Puente get to keep its head coach?\u2026So good for Glendora, great for the Warriors\u2026<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

First Add Arroyo Playoff Wins: Yes, the Knights are 0-3 in the playoffs under Rivera. In 2008, a team that would finish 3-8, lost in the first round to Temple City 7-6 because an extra-point was missed\u2026That TC team ended up in the semifinals.<\/p>\n

In 2009 they were a much better team, but they played a third place team from the Olympic called Whittier Christian. They lost\u2026That Heralds team ended up in the semifinals and might have beaten Monrovia in that game if not for DeShawn Ramirez.<\/p>\n

In 2010 they got San Dimas in the first round\u2026defending CIF champs\u2026and if not for a few inches (perhaps six) the touchdown they scored on the last play would have sent the game into overtime\u2026That Saints team ended up in the semifinals.<\/p>\n

Cut Arroyo some slack\u2026and I say this freely. I have not received food or gear from the Knights program in almost a year\u2026and I\u2019ve spent the last four months in His Arroyo Baldness\u2019s dog house\u2026<\/p>\n

Lastly\u2026they\u2019ve entered the playoffs in both 2009 and 2010 as league champions and drew Whittier Christian and San Dimas in the first round.<\/p>\n

Note to Joe T.: \u201cYes I was in Chicago instead of at the Arroyo Golf Tournament. We had to change date of the tournament three times to avoid conflicts with other tournaments. I gave my wife tickets to the Dodger-Cubs game for her birthday. I thought a good husband should accompany her. What would you have done? Gone to the golf tournament or take your wife to Chicago for her birthday. I like being married… I chose Chicago.\u201d— Doug Stevens<\/p>\n

Best wishes to the ScanWife\u2026<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

The Carolina Panthers should make the safe pick\u2026that means anyone other than Cam Newton\u2026<\/p>\n

If the St. Louis Rams forgo drafting a talented wide receiver to draft someone like Corey Liuget (Illinois) at defensive tackle\u2026I believe I could live with that\u2026<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve never really been much of a Chicago Blackhawks fan.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Obligatory Whittier Christian Love: Cody Bronkar\u2026Great year in 2010\u2026Ready to break out in 2011\u2026<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

First Add Monrovia: I am very interested in seeing Michael Harris run the ball this fall.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

This is our 12th<\/sup> year doing football full time, and a third of that time has been spent covering Arroyo\u2019s Steven Rivera\u2026I\u2019ve got more pictures of the Arroyo quarterback on my computer than I do of my oldest daughter.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

The Billy Livingston highlight tape finally arrived\u2026Nice work Sunshine.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Note to ObservantCat: It\u2019s not that I doubt Monrovia; I just think the pressure is going to be on big time and a lot of new guys are going to have to step up. In regards to G5, I\u2019m pro G5\u2026I just don\u2019t want to see him get chewed up.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t publish up to at least a third of what we get in regards to comments and for everything that seems like a positive (kid going to college) there are five negative posts coming in\u2026And everyone is going to start chiming in if things aren\u2019t just so for the defending champs.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve been around M-Town football for a long time, you\u2019ve seen what can happen. I saw Steve Garrison take the Wildcats to three straight finals, playoff appearances in 2000 and 2001, and a Rio Hondo League title in 2002\u2026Yet by 2003 I heard people in the M-Town stands screaming for his head. It was like they forgot everything that happened in between Richard Watson and Garrison\u2019s hiring.<\/p>\n

Now you guys have a title\u2026heaven help you if you stumble or throw a pick early on.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Okay, maybe I\u2019ll wait for Andre Ethier to take his cuts before I leave the room.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll make the argument that Draft Day in the NFL is actually a better show than the Super Bowl\u2026I absolutely adore it\u2026<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Stay thirsty my friends\u2026<\/p>\n
