    Thanks to Riser, I double-checked my comments for the level of nastiness. I discovered that I should have doubled-down on the anti-Pioneer rhetoric, but my benign nature caused me to rein in the vitriol.

    That was some pretty nasty hate even coming from you Mr Supreme. Do you want to take any of that back?

    I’ll double check Pioneer basketball when they get bounced early from the playoffs. As for Koffler to Pioneer confirmed, hey, if you saw him there then his presence was confirmed. That still doesn’t change the need to close the place down. Only greedy government school parasites keep this place on life support.

    2) the “science “ of going for it on 4th down regardless of score or other situational factors is losing the validation study/ battle

    It’s winning the popularity battle much to the dismay of Bronco fans . Charger fans 22-23 with Staley know all too well.
    Analytics are merely applied probability theory, but football is not mathematics as numbers do not have emotions . How many games – key playoff games —- will be lost until common sense harnesses bravado ???

    Things could have turned out worse than having Sam Darnold, a local guy out of San Clemente High, going to the Superbowl. Darnold was interested in baseball, basketball and football in his school days. His San Clemente basketball coach said he was the only player he ever coached who could throw an accurate 70-foot outlet pass after a rebound, a skill that obviously has translated into tossing a football. I admit to liking the guy because of his connection with USC, but maybe that’s just me.
