He cost too much money.<\/p>\n<p>After getting a close look at Montebello yesterday&#8230;I have a feeling the Almont is going to be way up in 2012. An argument could be made for any of the top five teams to win a league title. Alhambra has a lot of talented old guys, Bell Gardens has a lot of talented young guys, the Oilers have a lot of talent returning with experience, Schurr is ready to bounce back with some studs, and San Gabriel&#8230;San Gabriel&#8230;Mmm?<\/p>\n<p>If you listen to ESPN\u2019s Colin Cowherd and Mark Schlereth you\u2019d think Tim Tebow was responsible for everything from high gas prices to the the slaughter of innocents in Afghanistan&#8230;but he seems to have had nothing to do with Denver making the second round of the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>Next Add Denver: Listening to sports talk on Monday morning I thought it was interesting how they spent more time telling us how bad Tebow was rather than what Peyton Manning brought to the team.<\/p>\n<p>Still the Broncos made a great move by going after Manning, who is by far the superior quarterback&#8230;Especially if he is healthy. Manning was the only guy available Bronco brain-trust could safely replace Tim Tebow with&#8230;Especially if Manning is healthy.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand&#8230;Manning better be and stay healthy.<\/p>\n<p>Do you know anything about L.A. Baptist (That\u2019s right I said L.A. Baptist) middle linebacker Collin Adams (6-1, 175)? He was listed as a freshman last season and looked a lot better than most freshman. Just curious.<\/p>\n<p>Last Add Almont: Best thing for Jude Oliva and staff to do is remind everyone that 2011 is over&#8230;This is 2012&#8230;The Matadors can compete for a league title but could suffer from title run hangover&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Last Add San Gabriel: After reaching the title game in 2003, SG went 1-8-1 in 2004.<\/p>\n<p>Oilers One More Time: Montebello returns five to its offensive line this fall. Four of them were starters, the fifth received significant playing time&#8230;Keep an eye right guard Bryan Rodriguez (6-1, 280)&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Finally: How do you keep your NCAA bracket perfect? Simple, you only write in and advance teams after they\u2019ve won. It\u2019s foolproof.<\/p>\n<p>The Dude abides\u2026<\/p>\n<p>471<\/p>\n<p>Galatians 6:9<\/p>\n<p>Contact Joe at <a href=\"mailto:joe@midvalleysports.com\">joe@midvalleysports.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow him on Twitter at @joet13b<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kick it!
