\"Ageless<\/a>

Ageless Arroyo coaching fixture Danny Rios with his annual SGV Shootout pic.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cYou know what they say. \u2018Fool me once, strike one, but fool me twice…strike three.\u201d—Michael Scott<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kick it!<\/p>\n

Would baseball fans ever accept Game Seven of the World Series being settled by a home run derby?<\/p>\n

Would NHL, NBA, NFL fans ever accept an official on the floor\/field\/ice keeping track of \u201cextra time\u201d that no one else knows the exact amount?<\/p>\n

These questions are bugging me as I take a dive into soccer…You ask questions of any school you enroll your child in. Your children are your heart, so you are going to be very careful what you expose your heart to.<\/p>\n

So if I\u2019m going to jump into soccer then I have to have answers to these questions and not defensive reactions like: \u201cWhy don\u2019t you shut up, you don\u2019t know anything about soccer.\u201d<\/p>\n

To which, in the past, I have answered that I do know about soccer. It sucks. …But now I\u2019m seeking, trying to understand, and all I\u2019m being told is to accept how things are and not ask questions.<\/p>\n

MLB All-Star game! (yawn)<\/p>\n

\"Kona<\/a>

I don\u2019t know what Laker fans are so upset about. They signed Jeremy Lin, not Smush Parker…or Chucky Atkins.<\/p>\n

The only thing missing from Arroyo\u2019s SGV Shootout…is a \u201cFan Experience\u201d. You got food, you got great entertainment, maybe a section for a buck or two where fans can get timed in the 40 or armchair quarterbacks can measure their strength and accuracy. That might be a million dollar idea. (…And if it is, I want a piece.)<\/p>\n

Whenever there is a change in coaches and stars you have to think there will be a learning curve so that all ideas can catch up and land on the same page. With that said; Monrovia looks pretty good.<\/p>\n

In fact the rest of the Rio Hondo League should probably higher an actuary firm to run the numbers on whether it is wise to even line up against M-Town this fall. Perhaps, just perhaps, Temple City, La Canada, Blair, and South Pasadena should just take a pass and keep everyone healthy for a third place run. The rewards of which could include a road game with Charter Oak.
\nIf any team, other than the Wildcats, has any traction in the Central Division and Rio Hondo it is San Marino. Good program, and dangerous to anybody they play.<\/p>\n

I liked Arcadia, but wow, you\u2019re talking about a good team that might finish in fifth or fourth place in the Pacific. Muir is always there, CV is looking very good, and the Burbank schools are going to be there. The wild card will be Pasadena, so where does that leave the Apaches?<\/p>\n

Can an argument be made for six of the seven teams in the Mission Valley League being a title contender? Will it play out that way? No, but can everyone make an argument? I believe so.<\/p>\n

There was a lot of energy at Cal yesterday…<\/p>\n

Great question, does La Serna get unseated in the Del Rio. I\u2019m not saying it is going to happen, but no one should be surprised if it does happen.<\/p>\n

Regards:<\/strong><\/p>\n

In\u00a0regards to<\/strong> El Rancho: The Dons reached the semi-finals at \u201cThe Rumble at The Ranch\u201d before falling to San Clemente. They went 4-2 on the day. St. Bonaventure beat San Clemente in the finals.<\/p>\n

In regards to<\/strong> South El Monte: Quarterback Jaime Michel looks bigger.<\/p>\n

In regards to<\/strong>\u00a0the Creston Throw: …I\u2019m still on the market.<\/p>\n

In regards to<\/strong> Chris Bosh: I\u2019ve been out of town for a few weeks, but did the Miami Heat really give him a max deal?<\/p>\n

In regards to<\/strong> Julio Urias: When?<\/p>\n
