Week 4 pick'ems: Read 'em and weep

SP Fan

Finally a voice of reason! There is no doubt that St Paul, Santa Fe and La Habra have done their perspective areas proud.

Dear Mr. Spell Checker and Spelling Police:

I think in school they call what you did deflecting or denying the truth.

No matter how you spell it, you are still an EMBARRASSMENT to St. Paul.

SP fan,

First, you need to go back to school and learn how to spell! EMBARRASSMENT not embarresment. You must be a imposter because at SP we listen and learn. Just another uneducated big talker..

I have "OUR" backs. I don't have yours.

You need to have "OUR" backs and not be an embarresment to Swordsmen everywhere.

SP FAN,

Wow! I think i'm going to cry now.....Thanks for having our backs!

St. Paul Faithful:

I have followed this blog for long time and have never had the desire to post or respond to a comment.

But your recent rants and raves have led me to finally post.

Will you STFU? You are an embarresment to St. Paul followers/alumni/fans/family etc.

We are proud of our teams and traditions and what it means to be a Swordsmen but then you come on here with your idiotic comments.

This St. Paul Faithful guy is not indicative of a true Swordsmen and does not represent the views of 99.9% of us.

With deep roots in our local community we respect our opponents and their accomplishments and we should hope to conduct ourselves in a classy dignifed manner like a true Swordsmen.

Someone please step and enlighten all of us exactly what St Paul football has done over the 25 year leading up their sudden senior transfers and CIF title last year? Or even go back to the title they won one way back when to last year. You all talk about how rich in tradition your school is. What was that tradition…..winning league, making the playoffs maybe? Until Haynes and Flores came along how did it differ from Santa Fe has done?

Seriously….no name calling or bad mouthing just tell me what they have done that makes them so much better (in your eyes) then everyone else.

Hmmmmm?

As for SF making the area proud, I don't think so. Second sucks! How can you sit there and try to have credibility? The only way to gain respect is to win a championship. Nobody cares about league titles. Ask Malsteade whats missing off his resume. Maybe LH can have an argument. Not SF! Get real dude. As for making the area proud, Don't think so. Why do you think David Flores left SF? To win a championship that's why! I guess he's alot smarter then people think.
As for Firehouse Scholarships, What are you talking about? If that was the case, Melvin Richardson of Long Beach Poly would have stayed. And a ton of others so get your stupid facts straight before you run your non-championship mouth. If your trying to knock a champion down it won't work! We have alot of them. you have NONE!

ANONYMOUS you want someone to give you credit! you want to be reconize for a program that has done nothing! For 50 years.League titles everyone has one. Being in the finals every school has been there. SP cant give you something you have to earn!!!!!!!!

Dr Del Taco

Nice try but oh so wrong. Not sure why my name fell off but it was still me!

hey anonymous I mean chieftan almumnut , whats up ?

To hmmm,
I believe he is eligible because he is from the West Covina area, somebody correct me if I'm wrong but I believe if a player transfers from a private school
to his home public school district he is eligible to play.

Nathan Kimbrough was also a transfer......

Pellum was a transfer... so I guess...

Transfers (Don't) = Titles (for Santa Fe)

Sit down

According you……look at the teams St. Paul had to beat in order to win CIF. Two top, state recognized QB's, a highly recognizable undefeated team, and an improbable comeback against an efficient team.

Lets not forget your 2 top players and where they came from. Once again before they up and transferred to St Paul what had they done lets say over the past 10 or 1 5 years? Nothing any better then Santa Fe had done and if we’re talking CIF title far less then La Habra. NO TRANSFERS = NO TITLE

Why is so hard for the majority (not all) of the SP followers to give SF any credit for the program they have built? Titles or not they are always a main stay of local football. As you all well know from your own games that any team can beat any other team on any given night if they want it bad enough so for SF to go unbeaten in league for as long as they did has to say something about their program as well as the constancy of their lower level teams.

And as far as Pellum goes check it for you self. He transferred in midseason of his junior year and wasn’t eligible to play football for Santa Fe until his senior year as per CIF rules. HE DIDN’T JUST SHOW UP OVER SUMMER AND PLAY IN HIS SENIOR YEAR LIKE SOME OTHERS IN THE AREA HAVE!!!!!!

Don’t sit down……..you just got your chair pulled out from under you.

hey "ZERO TITLES" Big Chief Pigskin.

no transfers = no title .. funny that you say that.

how many titles do you have? that's right, stfu.

and wasn't romeo pellum a transfer that did it all for you guys?

name ALL the D1 schools you've played.
how high were they ranked in the division?

these D1 teams St. Paul plays are considered to be STATE and NATIONAL powers, while San Clemente would get beaten by these teams ANY DAY.

what division are you guys again? lowly D7?
look at the teams St. Paul had to beat in order to win CIF. Two top, state recognized QB's, a hihgly recognizable undefeated team, and an improbable comback against an efficient team.

so, Big Chief Pigskin...SIT DOWN

Dan,

Donte Webb is a great athlete and speedster and will help your team alot and any skill position...if he keeps his head on straight. He comes to you with some "baggage". My question is how can he even be eligible to play this year????

and
SP FAITHFUL!,

dont think I forgot about you...you must be new to the area and this blog. SF has been the only team to make Santa Fe Springs proud for a long time. And you obviously dont know area football. SF and LH have been the 2 top area schools for a while now with SP being the third best. Ya, SP has a championship banner but tell me who was your best player in Defense last year as well as CIF Defensive Player of the Year....hmmm...o, ya David Flores a SF kid, that your rented for his senior year with SP "FIREHOUSE SCHOLARSHIPS"

one more thing SF cross country is not that good, so SF Football will keep hanging the DRL championship banners next the SF Wrestling State Championships, and SF track and field championships, I could go on but im sure you have figured it out by now...GET A CLUE!

sp faithFOOL

Funny how you ran your mouth calling BG a powerhouse while SP play the likes of Cantwell and Pioneer. At least SF has no choice but to play Pioneer since they are in our league while SP actually scheduled them. I’m sure beating up on them will make you all completely forget that week 1 spanking you took, Good job!!

Capt Highlander

You are seriously bagging on SF’s strength of schedule? Wanna know a secret brainiac? LH plays 2 of the same teams with Downey and San Clemente. Why don’t you go blog in the OC Register where you belong? Oh, that’s right because on that side of the fence LH really isn’t that big of a deal.

If the dodgers win the world series, it doesn't count .. Manny Ramirez is a transfer!!

Chiefforskin?

The funniest thing is how stupid you sound. You can knock SP history all you want but the bottom line is that we have a history! SF has a history of nothing. Maybe long distance running or something like that. So if you EVER win a title maybe you can hang a banner in your gym. Right next to the cross country banner! In the mean time do us all favor and have a great game against that powerhouse Bell Gardens.
Bottom line is that people never talk about SF football. But people are always talking about SP good or bad....

Sorry I forgot to leave my name on the last post.

90,91, &92 SWORDSMEN,
Nice post, Good luck to your boys, I remember seeing some of that St. Paul history, the 20 to 20 tie vs ElRancho at the LA. Colusem, the Loss to Los Altos
in the 77 title game at Aneheim Stadium, & the 81 title game win over Sylmar[I believe it was Sylmar], you had a kid with a mexican last name at QB who threw a few nice TD passes in that 81 title game. I also remember the controversial spy game vs my Alma Mater
Pioneer where a St Paul staff member was caught spying at Denny's, St Paul had to forfeit that playoff game.
It's hard to imagine Pioneer playing D1 caliber football back in the day, but they had some good teams in the early 70's.

HS football Fan,
Donte Webb is now at West Covina not Western Christian, his family is from the West Covina area,
as a WC fan I'm curious, how good is this kid? How was he doing this year at ST Paul?

Man, this is sad. Two programs who no one really cares about are catfighting. Both teams are pretty solid and are good local programs. Neither of you can play with the big boys, so just relax. We are the best program in the area and will smack the both of you.
SP - Not a lot of talent, okay coaching and poor lower level squads.
Sante Fe - Good athletes, good coaching, poor strength of schedule and pretty weak DLR league.

LH is the best program in the area and we continue to get stronger.

Sit Down,

Not only have not beaten any teams that you have tried to step up to in D1...IT HAS NOT EVEN BEEN CLOSE...like I said earlier when LH and SF step up against the big boys they dont get embarrassed and man-handled like SP does...maybe that is the new tradition at SP...get man-handled by D1 teams, beat the "bad' teams in the area, and pay the tuition of some of the best players in the area in order to compete in D3, cuz we all know that your best players are not home grown SP talent...not so proud anymore

Sit Down

We all know and everybody knows how great St.Paul football program is. Playing for the swordsmen in varsity in 90,91,and 92 were the best times in my life and beating Santa fe 38- 20 was the best memory being their at St.Paul. My last game at St paul I told myself my boys will be coming here when their in high school. Well things did not work out, tuition was to high almost 600 dollars for one student is to much when I have 2 boys and being a single dad. So my boys are at santa fe and are playing football which I think is one of the best programs around the area. I like the program at Santa Fe they have very good coaches and the players are very respectful.If tuition wasn't high my boys would be at St Paul. As a alumni I don't think we can compare St Paul to Santa Fe or any other local public school. Many players want to come to St.Paul, because of their football program. That's why their always good that's my opinion. I don't it's fair if St Paul is paying for some of these students to come to the school to play football, although I heard that is just a rumor. Well what I do know is that no football team can match the tradition St paul has. WE HAVE THE BEST and if we did play LA HABRA I think we could take them. Well we just have to sit and wait for that moment, But those boys in La Habra are very tough. Good luck and may GOD BLESS ALL THE BOYS WHO STRAP THE HELMET.

After all the mud slinging, name calling and all the other crap all you SP posters tossed out there the bottom line still remains the same…….

no transfers = no title (no matter how good you think your coaching staff is)

By the way this was my favorite line of them all… “Yeah, we haven't beaten any of them”

Big Chief Pigskin,

In the 2006, St. Paul did go to Semis after having a down year in 2005 going 5-5. Where were all the transfers there?

Even in the days of Tardy we were a solid, yearly playoff bound team, while playing good competition.

Who has Santa Fe even played within the last five years?

In the 05-06 season, you guys went undefeated in regular season..while playing only two teams barrely above .500!

Same thing in 06-07. I'll give credit when credit is due going to CIF. You guys played two teams above .500 that year two.

DRL doesn't even compare to the Misioon League, and you know that. It's Mickey Mouse League.

Within the last five years, St. Paul has played top teams, even considered top in the state, in Long Beach Poly, Notre Dame, St. Bonaventure, Loyola, Crespi, Servite, St. John Bosco. Yeah, we haven't beaten any of them, but we're a D3 school. These guys are the best our state has. We've competed against the big boys while you guys are stuck embarrassing sub .500 teams. In order to be the best, you have to beat the best. And in your case, you haven't even tried to do that yet.

Santa Fe, why don't you guys just play some one noteworthy first

I believe that La Habra would beat St. Paul in a close game. LH almost beat Los Al (#35 in the nation), while SP struggled with Servite (who is also ranked in the nation but not as high as los al) and John Bosco. Anyways who cares about polls, it would be a very interesting game to watch LH and SP go at it, many people would go out to watch such a game.

Chieffatskin?

Your school is the very last school that could ever have a debate regarding football history. I don't ever think that SF has ever won a title. Getting to the second round doesn't give you credibilty. You guys are notorious for choking when it counts. All that talent and no titles is a SF moniker. Playing in the DRL is a joke! How can you possibly sit there and pound your hairy chest and never win a title? Win one for the hairy gipper!
You guys are just another local school that won't step up and play SP. At least Cantwell, Pioneer and El Rancho have the ganas to mix it up. SF, nope!

St Paul has beat Santa Fe every time. What has Santa Fe done without any transfers? No Romeo no Final appearance...hmmm how many titles has Santa Fe won..wait how many final appearances have they had? If you guys don't blow out every Del Rio league opponent your argument of being the best in the area is invalid...

Hey Dtr. Del Rio,
LS is beating up on weak teams just like you did against La Mirada,14-10.

Hey Sit Down,

What is it that SP will prove us wrong about without any transfers? SP’s transfers last year were MAJOR factors in winning CIF. Prior to that what did SP do without going all the way back to the single bar facemask days??????

Yo, HS football fan: It is true Dont'e Webb has transferred from St. Paul for personal reasons. It had nothing to do with football.

There is a rumor that Donte Webb has left St. Paul and is going to Western Christian, why would he do that going to a small school and leaving a Championship team in the middle of the season. Someone care to elaborate on this rumor.

La Habra Parent:

You do have a point. I haven't seen of the La Habra faithful posting in here at all. Thanks for the class. Hell, do the La Habra faithful even consider themselves Whittier area? They are, afterall, technically in the OC by like a foot and they are in the Freeway League if I'm not mistaken. I'm just typing at the top of my head so no one please blow this out of proportion, it's just a mere question. Anywho, thanks for the class.

And yes, it is obvious that St. Paul cannot play with the big boys. They haven't been able to compete with them. The last time St. Paul came close to beating an Elite D1 school was probably the days of Tardy (WSU) and Reynoso (who did go to USD) and Castillo (who is at San Jose St.) when they came a touchdown short behind Long Beach Poly and Deshawn Jackson and when they beat ND by a 50 yard FG. Until recent, we haven't been able to play with the big boys because we lack the size and the physicality. But one thing we don't lack at St. Paul is HEART.

But that could only take you so far.

You have to remember, we graduated majority of the team, offense and defense. The players playing right now hardly got any PT at the skills positions. Our defense, which has done a great job, are all newcomers except Luis "Sonic" Garcia. Our free safety(Kevin Garcia)didn't play a down at that position last year and look at the job he's doing! The first four games, we didn't have our biggest and most physical player in Markus Viramontes. This is not an excuse, by no means, why we're not undefeated right now. This is merely a reminder that we are a young team and an even younger team next year. Little Adam Padilla (#18 DB) was two heads shorter than the SJB receivers and he still went flying into them without his helmet. That, right there, is heart.

And as for the transferring talk, I heard Principal Barr doesn't want any football transfers anymore at St. Paul. I don't know if it's true but there's some fuel for the fire for the blog. For those that don't believe St. Paul can't grow and develop their own players, that's for you too. Maybe you finally got what you wanted. If it is true, we'll just have to prove you wrong again.

Rumor has it the freshmen class this year at St. Paul are looking like last year's senior class. CIF champs '12? Book it! Just kidding, SP faithful cannot wait that long.

Keep fighting Swordsmen, put up another banner.
Good luck to all DRL teams and LH in league.

Capt lowlander?

Very typical of a hater. Get a life and grow up already.Do us all a favor and don't compare our schedule to yours. Because there is no comparing! It's about time that you grow up . Just ask football minds like Mazzota and you will get your answer. Please dont respond, were through with stupidity.

del rio league fan, you are a whack job,never did i talk about this years schedule,nice try. did you attend metro state? metro state hospital that is , Go Metro. will you play glenn and or la mirada high schools ? you are in norwalk.

How is beating Los Alamitos "Shocking the World"

Los Alamitos hasn't been a legitimate Pac-5 (D1) team in a while...

Santa Fe better than St. Paul? I highly doubt that but whatever...

La Habra being better is slightly more believable but only slightly until a series of games between the two schools happen, which highly unlikely... until than no comparisons should even be made...

Dear Mr. Murray,
My original post states that we(parents) are encouraged not to belittle other programs.Parents and Football Staff have created a standard here at La Habra and this Capt. dose not meet it. Many parents are aware of this blog but stay off it beacuse of the negative tone- I just could not let this Capt. represent my son's school.

Yo, Highlander parent: Thanks for participating. Wish we could get more of you folks posting.

St Paula Faithful,
At least we were within 7 points of shocking the world. You guys were boatraced by Servite and SJB. You were never in the game and you had no chance. I can't wait until ND and Loyola spank you. You can then say you got your lunch handed to you by all D1 teams you played. You might not make play-offs. Oh oh. No athletes, no size and no chance. Go Pioneer!

for you fans in drl watch out for LS. they have a defense that is good as any i have seen in 15 years of coaching

Dear Capt. Highlander,
I am so disapointed in your comments/trash blog towards SP Faithful. We as Highlander Parents are encouraged by the coaching staff not to belittle other schools program. This leads me to believe that maybe you are not a parent of a player.

Dear SP Faithful,
Why would it be necessary to play against you..what would that prove?
Any one can lose against a D1 school. and yes Los Al beat us.. and it hurts. You have to beat a D1 school before you can claim bragging rights..and as far as I have read no Highlanders are bragging..maybe just this Capt. I hope you understand this logic..hope it does not go over your head.

Capt.Lowlander?

Do us all a favor and go ask Mazzotta why he won't play SP ? I will tell you why, he's a very smart guy. He knows a loss to SP will ruin his credibility in the area. SP has on many occasions tried to play La Habra only to be denied. Why? Who knows. I have a pretty good feeling though.
As for schedule toughness, La Habra plays nothing but creampuffs (Except Alamitos witch they lost). If SP played those teams they 100% would be 5-0. Play the likes of Servite ,Bosco and Notre Dame etc. Then you can boast how good you are. La Habra has a very good program that's been successful at the lower divisions. But if you really want to be considered great, move up a few divisions. I really don't see that happening ever. As for being 10x the coach, I don't think so! Not in a million years. One message to La Habra, Sack Up and play St.Paul! It will only hurt for a while...

Del Rio League Fan

That was not my post about Pioneer & Schurr. LS would beat Schurr. I'm not making any excuse for our team, I'm simply saying that thimgs would have be different. We got the win & that's all that matters.

Glenn, Norwalk, LM, Los Altos, Warren. The only decent team this year is Warren, Los Altos is WEAK. I don't see the upgrade. Our schedule is nothing to brag about either. Like I said, the title is Santa Fe's to lose, to put yourself in front of them is nonsense.

Doctor Del Rio,
I see that Cal is getting ready to play the always good El Monte????
Don't talk about scheduling.

Which web-site shows the division 6 and 7 football rankings? Also is santa fe ranked #1 or is south hills #1 in the division?

HMMMMM and BRAVE ONE
Where do you guys get your information, We graduate and have plenty that of athletes that are have a BPA of 3.5 or above . We have Great players to choose from, You just don't get what I'm saying our coaches do a great job with our young talent. We are proud of being D3 champions. When can you say that you were a Champion, If you don't WIN THIS YEAR you might consider D2 its Not that bad for you, Maybe there you wont be a door mat. Trust me SP Kids are smarter than you think, We are no door mat to anyone. They proved they were smart when they didn't choose you or your sister school to attend.

You are naive if you don't understand that sending players on to the next level has more to do with demographics than coaching.

in all fairness, lets hope for some exciting games

If pioneer can beat anyone whats holding them back? Not fear? Maybe their holding back so in league they could win very easy and we will all have fear!!! Schurr was a very good team with alot of speed and a strong line both O & D. I know they can take out LS.

del rio league fan , what in the heck are you talking about. facts are facts and nonsense is nonsense. hey einstein we all know the best team will win. and one more thing does the 2nd stringers ever get to play or do you just love to run up the scores on weak teams.oh well se ya soon .

SP fans are so sensitive. It's not our fault no one wants to go there anymore. If you put some money into the school (classrooms/fields) you might attract elite student athletes. You guys don't even have a school website!. People go to SP because, they can afford it or it's close. Oaks Christian only has 300 boys so stop crying. If you build it, they will come. I wish we (LH) could smack you guys around. Coach Mazzotta is 10x the coach yours is.

Hey Cal Fan,
Was your best player there when you barely beat a poor La Mirada team? Everybody plays games without "key" players. The schedules are set in the spring and from the previous season. The fact that LS dropped Montclair and El Monte and replaced them with LM and Los Altos is a upgrade. After this week, the season starts and the preseason doesn't matter. The league going to be close and don't forget Pioneer they can beat anyone. The best team will win this. That is what happens in a close race.

Anonymous why are you afraid to post your identity. Maybe because poor SP can only draw from 300 players, so your saying those 300 kids are not very good? This is all we got!! Why are those kids paying tuition, when it comes to academics SP is the door mat of all private schools, any public school even the lowest funded do better than SP. Many of your players don’t graduate!!

why are SP fans such sore losers???

You do play great teams that are better than you. And dont get mad that YOU DONT BELONG in D1. I think its great that you guys won a CIF championship last year. With of course your 2 BEST PLAYERS not even being SP grown. Your best players this year are not SP grown either.

But why cant the fans admit that you are a good d3 program? That is something to be really proud of. The trinity league is better than you clearly!!!

So stick to playing small weak schools like Cantwell and Pioneer in your pre-season schedule.

As a matter a fact SP is not even the best team in the area. 2 schools La Habra and SF are both in lower divisions than you and are better. Hey at least SF and La habra played close games against D1 teams like San Clemente and Los Alamitos and did not get embarrassed and pushed around like Servite and SJB pushed you guys around.

Brave One-
YOU talk about St. Paul staying away from the Trinity League, St. Paul football draws from about 300 boys to your 1200. With that they must have GREAT coaching to get those boys to compete against southern California's finest. You play Damian , Cabrillo good job!!! You are and always will be the door mat for the trinity league.
I must admit this is the Best team Bosco has had in a long time and you have to win it all, or you don't belong in the trinity League. Good luck

Brave one, We dont care about you, We'er going to win another CIF Championship.When? was the last time your school has won anything?

Self deprecation, So the million dollard field has one win???? We have not produce one player in 25 years or 30 years?? I ask you who?? Mr Firday " THINK " coaches have to GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Job Players & Coaches in the win over Warren
4-0 Great start to the season, keep it up, I love to take a look @ the Prep Sports page on Saturday mornings and see the success you are all having.

Play Hard
Have Fun
Stay Safe

MOB parent, where are you? You said Montebello would never win on their new million dollar field. How do two consecutive wins over El Rancho and Wilson sound to you?

murray ,campa
I really don't think that sonic kid at st paul gets enough credit.
he fights on offense & defense .
he doesn't have huge numbers ,but he has numbers across the board.
tackles .yards, receps., interceptions.
he's everywhere .
you have to give credit to somebody who bangs with the big boys & keeps on working.

More proof SP is right where they belong, Division 3. Servite and SJB have ourscored them 78-26. Please stay away from the Trinity, and keep playing schools like Cantwell. Sad.
No size
No speed
No discipline
No coaching

DRL League Fan

"And for anyone actually watching the DRL and what teams can really do - this is the truth."

La Serna 1st? Now I know your a La Serna HONK. The class of the Del Rio is Santa Fe. Anybody with half a brain for football would see that. It's obvious your missing yours.

The offense scored 34 against Pacifica. Our biggest weapon did not play against Schurr, if he had, it would have been different. The defense is coming around, but still has a lot of work to get to where they were last year if that is possible.

Keep your misinformed comments inside that mentally challenged brain of yours DRL League Fan.

A fan,

Who has Cal played?

I would say Santa Fe first but that's just me.

DRL League Fan,

What's wrong with getting 3 yards every play? 4 downs x 3 yards equals a first down and then some. Besides CAL has shown that they don't need a stellar offense as long as the D plays tough.

All in all Santa Fe is still the team to beat. Pioneer, so I hear, is turning to the double or single wing due to the QB situation, so their offense looks doubtful. Whittier is one dimensional and El Rancho has lost a stud. But hey in the DRL anything can happen and anyone can win on any given night.

i like how there isnt respect for Cal...If urquiza would have played, we would have at least scored 28pts considering he is a great runner, blocker, and receiver out of the backfield on offense..

hah Pioneer in front of Cal, not even murray or campa would say that..the fact that they picked schurr to beat cal was a diss; they really thought that schurr's junior running back would do good against cal's defense AND urquiza plays defense exceptionally well as well, so he would have had a big impact on defense as well..schurr would have probably not even scored..
besides that everyone else everyone tried hard(perhaps not their hardest) and it showed as cal came out on top

cal will do very well in league..i believe that the only close games in league for cal will be santa fe and la serna, and i believe that cal will come out on top :]
between santa fe and la serna..santa fe is going to be harder...santa fe has proven themselves by playing tough teams, while la serna is playing mediocre teams

*and i dont know how pacifica is a "junior high team" since they returned many guys, especially their qb and rb, from a team that made it to the southern div cif championship game
and Rowland is actually a very decent team
while La Mirada(losing to very good teams) and Schurr are about average

LETS GO CAL!!

DRL Fan or La Serna player,

La Serna first, come on? Let's be realistic, who have you played? If Cal played JV teams yours must be elementary. Glenn...come on! Be real.

To the Proud Condor Parent and DR. Del Rio, I wouldn't be to happy about that win last night, being undefeated against 4 junior high teams and one schurr team that is pretty down this year is nothing to be so excited about. This Condor team is so boring to watch and the defense isn't close to as good as last year, so your problem is that teams are going to score points on you and you can't score on them. Every play is 3 yards, 3 yards, 3 yards, PLAY SOME OFFENSE - La Serna, Santa Fe, even Pioneer score points. That's where your problem will lie. Right now in the DRL you are probably 3rd or 4th at best. So far it goes La Serna, Santa Fe, (and with a healthy QB) Pioneer, Cal, ER, and lastly Whittier. And for anyone actually watching the DRL and what teams can really do - this is the truth.

We get it, we get it. La Habra is really good that they deserve articles every week. We get it.

When are you going to write an article for the lowly watergirl that has been there for her four years? She's apart of the team too. Geeez. (Being sarcastic, no one take this seriously please. People probably will anyways)

What the fox!! JB over St Paul? I dont think so, we will need a apology and it must be a good one!!!

Murray and Campa you were both wrong. Way to go CONDORS on your win over Schurr.
