Ferragamo, a Nebraska alum, is currently running quarterback camps in Orange County.<\/p>\n<p>Question: How does Whittier Daily News sports writer Andrew Campa leave Whittier Christian DT Jeff Worthy off his paper\u2019s all area team. Bad form Mr. Campa, bad form&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>You know its bowl season when you see Brent Musburger shopping at the Glendale Galleria&#8230; I asked what he thought of the crowd at the mall and he said; \u201cYou are seeing what greatness is all about!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Okay&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Got a nice preview of future Rams number one pick Ndamukong Suh Wednesday night. Yes, he qualifies as a big dude&#8230;and he handled the media well&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Had to back away from the scrum at midfield talking to Suh after the game&#8230;Maybe its the gray hair, maybe its something else&#8230;but the way the press crunched down on him made me feel common&#8230;And who wants to be common?&#8230;And who wants to trowel so desperately for a quote&#8230;Again, it was time to rethink about how things are done.<\/p>\n<p>Finishing up the Top 20 MVL games of all time&#8230;and like I mentioned in a post I had planned on listing them chronologically&#8230;but I thought it would create more hostility if I placed them from best to last&#8230; It\u2019s been much tougher than I thought&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Then again, were going to have to come up with a top list of games played for the Old School as well&#8230;then the all decade teams&#8230;then all decade teams for the local schools&#8230;Cool&#8230;we should be done in time for Zero Week next season.<\/p>\n<p>You want a team of the decade? Cut me some slack, I still have to work in this neighborhood&#8230; 2001: Rosemead Panthers? 2004: Arroyo Knights? 2005: South El Monte Eagles? (remember Mead went 10-0 in the regular season that year) 2008: Panthers?<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Florida State HC Bobby Bowden put the firey lance into the ground before the Gator Bowl was cool. I\u2019ve never been a Seminole fan, but I\u2019ve always admired the rider on horseback firing the lance into the ground before each game&#8230;a lesser school would have buckled by now&#8230;and fired a flaming asparagus or something&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>JoeStaDamus Prediction of the Day: Oregon works Ohio State&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Last Add Holiday Bowl: Besides Cal High\u2019s Nic Grigsby, former Schurr plow horses Mike Diaz and Phillip Garcia were with Arizona. Garcia, redshirting, has another year with the Wildcats.<\/p>\n<p>If you need a little referencing help, Diaz and Garcia were Jesse \u201cGordo\u201d Ramirez\u2019s lead blockers when he ran for 2000-yards in 2003 and 2004 for the Spartans.<\/p>\n<p>Stay thirsty my friends\u2026<\/p>\n<p>187<\/p>\n<p>Fanview Lite appears Monday thru Saturday at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.midvalleysports.com\/\">www.midvalleysports.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fanview, the HD version, appears every Tuesday at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.midvalleynewsonline.com\/\">www.midvalleynewsonline.com<\/a><\/p>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; font-size: small;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Morning!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[1776,1376,1777,1778,1779,1781,1780,1775],"class_list":["post-5088","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fanview","tag-andrew-campa","tag-duane-bad-news-barker","tag-jeff-worthy","tag-jesse-gordo-ramirez","tag-kevin-diaz","tag-nic-grigsby","tag-phillip-garcia","tag-vince-ferragamo"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5088","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5088"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5088\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5091,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5088\/revisions\/5091"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5088"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5088"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5088"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
