Predictions, limited version ...

Way to go oilers. 1-3, that sounds about right. It doesn't look like Coach G is the great almighty like everyone thought. He is doing no better than the last coach, and at least the other guy and his staff didn't rub the whole world the wrong way. "Attitude reflects leadership, captain." Great Hire Mr. Schwartz!!!

To Mr,Mrs,or Ms.Truth
what's your point in saying that SP is a Mexican school? The truth is... you probably didn't even graduate from college or high school. Your head is so far up your a...s you just can't acknowlege diversity.
This So Ca. not the South prior to the 70's. I was at the Garfield game and the Swordsman played a whole different game than they did the previous week. Continue building on your success. Great job! and good luck.

Santa Fe is weak and the rest of the league soft and slow!!! Your comments exactly.

Is that the only way Cal can win it? With the other teams down? Have an idea.

oh please, embarrass his Alma Mater.

Dear SP Parent,

Mazzotta would never embarrass his alma mater- so there will never be a game. Please stop trying to include La Habra in all your drama...we do not operate like most of you.

A bit of advice - just focus on your mess - no need to
spread it around.

you fools are to into you're selves. bring it, operate in fear like most of you!!!!!!!!

You Cal Hi people are sure talking loud when you lost so many starters from last year. I'm sure the Del Rio league will have lots to say about that. Santa Fe will have lots to say, El Rancho just took down West Covina I would not count them out either.

SP,
Do you really think that people on this blog can call the Athletic Director's from other schools and schedule Saint Paul? Who do you think reads and writes this stuff? You just got beat at home by La Mirada. I think the time for "chest pounding" on the blog is over. The freshman team is small in numbers because nobody wants to go there anymore. Do you really think that a offense from the seventies is going to influence someone to go there? SP will steal some good players from other programs but that won't create any growth of your program from within. Remember when you won the CIF your best players were tranfers and that won't change. Your best players in baseball are also transfers. Enough said.

Everyone needs to calm down it was only week one. The question was, did SP battle? did they play a great school? Fans those are the issues. Unfortanetly SP is in for a very long season. SP has always dominated the preseason games under Ancich and Gonzalez. All the bad mouthing and pointing finger is pointless.

I personally felt like the kids didn't even look prepared. The game plan absouletly fall apart.

The issues are real and very tough for SP.

Whoever you are kid, your an idiot! 10-0, that's just plain stupid. I doubt this team has that talent, especially if the injury bug bites you in your A$$. La Mirada might have something to say about it & I'm sure Santa Fe & the rest of the Del Rio will.

Stop making stupid comments you moron, they make you & your school look foolish. Just get ready for Rowland punk!

i think El rancho has a really good shot at league they just beat west covina last week, and lets not forget this was class that went 9-1 as freshman only losing to St. Paul.

Anonymous?

Pete's brother? Don't think so. But close. How would you know? Just curious. As for you, show some balls and let us know who you are. I have a pretty good idea. Your handle fits you! As a matter of fact , thats probably all that fits you....

Here I go again: people!, Cal Hi will go 10 and 0!!! We are at full strength and getting stronger. Remember sf is weak, and the rest of the league are soft and slow.

El Rancho let’s take one game at a time. No school, not Cerritos, or May I state it in this way, any and all high school football players, “always” come to win. Best of luck Dons.

Don Keydick said: "You have a D1 quarterback that can change the game if you let him."

Paul has talent, but he doesn't know how to handle his players and he doesn't understand how to control the huddle. As the leader of the team he needs to take accountability instead of yelling at players and pointing fingers at everyone but himself. Without the calm and collected leader, the team goes nowhere. Face it, Lopez gave a subpar effort and got no help from Williams or any other of their very few weapons.
And as for the Barr bashers, she's changing the structure of the school. That's what everybody wanted and that's what they got. She removed the cancer that was Pete and his goons and brought back Old Man Marijon to be the face of the program once again. So what, one loss and Barr should be fired? This is exactly why SP gets bashed by the surrounding area schools. I am an SP supporter and graduated from SP, but I am also a realist and I see why people think the school is a joke. It's due to the poor representation you SP bloggers give on this thing. Get your acts together. Good luck to SP against Garfield this friday. Should be interesting.

Friendlyhills,

Although SPHS football team may be going through a transitional year and prehaps this year will be rough for us, remember we had a 4-6 record last year and we are trying to redirect our mission here. That being said, our future looks good, the freshman team although small in numbers has talent, size, and football smarts. I also happen to know most of those kids are in honor classes as one of them is my son. So don't be quick to judge who a deliquent is or isn't.

About La Habra, or La Serna, or Santa Fe, and even Montebello HS, these are fine programs and their communities should be proud ot their teams. But I would imagine this would be the right time to plays us when we are down and crashing as most of you say we are. So have your Athletic Director call ours and schedule the game, or are you afraid our deliquents will be to much for your team???

Be real here people, SPHS and La Habra are the only schools that have won a CIF Title in the last five years. Our team will return and make us proud regardless of your evil thoughts.

ex sp parent;

Being a former parent from a real good catholic school, you should look in the mirror and slap some sense into your face. Why would you compare the school to a Mexican school? You made yourself look like an idiot who knows nothing about life. Do us all a favor and jump off a bridge. No one would miss you, not even your kids! I bet you they don't even speak to you anymore. You racist pig!

Don Keydick is Petes loud mouth brother. Get over it and move on.

Although I'm a SP parent, good job to LaMirada. I hope you bring your fast receiver (Matta) and big line to LaHabra and shut them up a little.

It only makes sense that these local high schools should have good teams. Look at the good talent they have to pick from. All these cities have active jr football leagues and they benefit from that.

I'm disappointed to hear that Ancich ran his usual, boring, running game. I was hoping his coaching assistants would have more influence over his style. Ho, Hum. When is baseball season beginning?

El Rancho has the possibility of a 4-0 record going into week 5 vs St. Francis.

Enough Already ?

I think you think Im an Ancich fan. Wrong! I was pissed when they hired him. Your behind the times as he is.
As for jumping on Barr it would be my pleasure. She is to blame for all the garbage thats going on at the school. Get a grip on life.
As for the D1 qb, no doubt he will be playing somewhere next year. He's a good kid thats actually very quiet. You must not know him. The kids respond to him very well. It's just the coach who has no clue. Go ask Willig what he thinks of Paulie. He knows all about talent.

Listen: your lying, only to take advantage of hard working parents....... The Archdiocese won’t commit any money for upgrades or maintenance even for the basics, like restrooms, classrooms etc. This is more like the truth.

First, your lie;..... Kids Football Shirt said:
The new principal started by literally and figuratively cleaning up the school. There are major projects going on for all to see. The football field is having a major redo. It is being leveled out and re sodded. All of the bathrooms in the school are being remodeled starting with the bathrooms under the bleachers.
September 5, 2009 11:29 PM

The truth!!!!

The school is still not clean, the teachers still with no degree. I guess re-sodding the football field is more important than education, or having a clean restroom available for young kids. Wow is St.Paul in Mexico? Only a parent who doesn't have a cue about education will consider sending their kid to SP. God help us.

Don Keydick said:
SP?

What the heck is that kind of garbage? Our school is now the laughing joke of the area. With a horrible team to boot! Ancich get it together! Your game plan was the same as it's always been. Power left and power right. At one time it was the offense to run. Not in todays day and age. Use your resources. You have a D1 quarterback that can change the game if you let him

Who is the D1 quarterback.... not the guy who points fingers at everyone but himself.... There is no D1 quarterback.

la mirada? la mirada? OMG, CMC, and finally LMFAO!

Should of left Wilson to start.

Wilson cant pitch, so how can he be the starter on the football team. Paul Lopez is the best QB ST.Paul has ever had and with no support. Wilson who let us down on the baseball team. Gabe had to carry the team. Plus our football team has talent problems, kids to slow and small.

AS A FAITHFUL ST PAYL ALUM,IT IS ASHAME TO WATCH SPHS, GO DOWN THE TOILET .ONLY PRE 1981 ALUM REALLY LIKED THE REHIRING OF COACH ANCICH ANYONE WHO GRADUATED AFTER KNEW THE GAME HAS LONG PASSED HIM OVER.HE COULD NOT WIN WITH M ALLMOND,M MARILLO,A CRUZ,AND ABIG O LINE IN 98-00,HE COULD NOT WIN WITH D TARDY AND M PARRENT IN 02-04 HE WILL NOT WIN NOW.WE DONT NEED A LEGEND WHO IN HIS TIME WAS LEGENDARY,WE NEED AN INOVATOR TO BE INOVATIVE IN THIS TIME. COACH A HELMETS ARE NOT MADE OF LEATHER, AND THOSE THINGS IN THE FRONT OF THEM ARE CALLED FACEMASK.IF THIS IS THE PLAN TO GET INROLLMENT UP SPHS IS DOOMED FOR FAILURE,FIRE COACH ANCICH AND LET THE WILLIGS PUT THERE STAMP ON THE PROGRAM..........AND STOP ACTING LIKE THE FOWARD PASS HAS NOT BEEN INVENTED

Hey Don Keydick and all other SP lovers,

Now your going to jump on Barr too? She did what all you SP people wanted her to do, fire Coach Pete and hire Coach A. So why don't you stop looking for someone else to blame and just shut up already! Why don't you take it like the big men you all say that you are and leave it alone already! The egg is on your face so stop trying to pass it elswhere! Have a great year with your beloved Ancich at the helm and watch them try to scratch and crawl for their only win of the year against Pioneer. Hope your not making plans to watch the playoffs this year, unless your going to watch other local teams!!!

P.S. If you want her to resign might as well have him and that playbook resign too!!

Good job ER, thats the way to show those so called big schools what you are made of. Good luck to all the del Rio schools this week. Hey Murray know body cares what time you make your picks but you need to post them before the games. How about the day before.
Murray can you give us some info on the QB from pioneer I heard he got injured last week and could be out the rest of the year.

La Serna had a scrimmage against La Habra....
The Highlander's are good!!!!

La Mirada dose not even have a chance. La habra defensive line is so fast- the DB'S are tough. The offensive line could not be broken- they literally pushed our guys back. My son has a lot of respect for that team. He was exhausted.

I wish La Habra would play SP and crush all those deliquents.....

Murray, it's pretty obvious you don't like this blog stuff at all... Just look at the other two blogs the sgvn is responsible for. They have their predictions on Tuesday, not right before they leave the office.

What a game played by our beloved Dons. Reminded me of those scrappy ER teams of old. The Dons absolutely outhit and out hustled West Covina on Friday night. Josh Perea absolutely took control of this game, if he had to make a throw he made it, if he had to put his head down and run he did it. RB Art Franco and Josh Lopez absolutely ran their butts off thanks to a fantastic game by ER's O Line. Great job Dons, I hope the rest of the league keeps doubting us.

I believe La Mirada is a very good team as I predicted they would be towards the end of last year! A very active coaching staff led by La Mirada alumnus and University of Colorado quarterback Muschetti.

Supporting cast of coaches is strong with very experience Brooks (defensive coordinator for decades under John Mele during the great years), Cardona (the line coach under Mele) and Rudiger, a great athlete at La Mirada in the 90's and a Stanford scholarship athlete!

But it may be the "motivation" they give the players that is their "highest quality"!!

St. Paul == the score was very kind compared to the way they beat on you!

la mirada? la mirada? OMG, CMC, and finally LMFAO!

Should of left Wilson to start.

you can't disguise your ignorant ramblings on here. you put the same retarded crap on the wolverine website and make yourslef and our organization look like idiots. nobody takes your stupid posts seriously. your a flag coach now? after they get tired of your crap, what's next? cheer coach?"living monument"? "romantic example"? loser.

OILERVILLE!!!!!

What's up St.Paul? Though talking trash yet? Keep up the good work and maybe, just maybe you will get in the win bracket. From what I heard, the future doesn't look to bright.
As for the Oilers, great job! Hopefully we get better every week. With this new staff I feel we will. Great job Coach Gonzales. We are honored that you call Oilerville home. Hopefully you stay with us for many years to come.

SP?

What the heck is that kind of garbage? Our school is now the laughing joke of the area. With a horrible team to boot! Ancich get it together! Your game plan was the same as it's always been. Power left and power right. At one time it was the offense to run. Not in todays day and age. Use your resources. You have a D1 quarterback that can change the game if you let him. Your doing no justice for the school and yourself. As a matter of fact, all your doing is getting ready for a long year. Listen to your coaching staff. Look in the mirror and realize that it's time to change.
We can't just blame the coach without giving some credit to Ms. Barr. As our foolsball team suffers so should you. It's to bad that you weren't there to see it. You were watching your future meal ticket do his thing. That's a nice option to have because the decision's you make. You will need it. Just do us all a favor and fire yourself! Turn in a letter to your school mailbox and resign!
We might as well make Morales the principal too. At least he will do what's best for the school.

Please put a little attention on the area cross country teams! They work just as hard, probably even harder than the football teams!

Now lets see what La Habra does to La Mirada & then everyone, including you myopic swordsman fans, will know who the best program in the area is.

Go ahead & pull the trigger Barr, it's over!

This weekend I took my son to the SP kids camp... WOW, what a joke only about 60 kids, and very unorganized. After paying the camp fee I pulled my son out, and we went to ex SP coach Pete Gonzalez camp. I payed again for my son but this time it was worth the money, they had over 200 kids from all over (Whittier, Montebello, Arcadia, Torrance, Alhambra, ELA, Pico Rivera, La Mirada, Bell Gardens, and more). This was a real camp, everyone was having fun and learning a lot. First they gave them a real nice T-shirt, then they barbecued for the kids at lunch break, and ended the day off by letting all the participants cool off by jumping in the swimming pool. I now understand what a great coach Mr. Pete Gonzalez is, and our losAshamed SP Alumni said:

The city of SFS is tired of low rent St Paul people. We are a shame of that school. Every year they attack every kid, program and event from a public school and they don't stop there, they will attack other private schools. Please close or move that cancer! The city will be much better off.

Who does St. Paul send or place at the next level? Are you serious? Other then Dwight Tardy please tell me? Are you refering to guys like Ramses Arceo two time All CIF all divisions OL. Placed at Cerritos. Or David Flores All Cif Division 3 player of the year placed at Cerritos. Or maybe the running back from that year where is he playing at. What kids are you talking about? What Kids. Please tell me. You guys get the best talent yet still don't do any job placing kids then any other area team. Fantasy Land.

Some parents told me to check this website out. Dang SP people are awful. You parents need to shut up and stay off the blogs. I'm a PR Don and was thinking of SP for my sons school. No thanks I will send him to Amat, you parents are clueless.
One more thing I went to the camp at El Rancho great turn out and my step-son went to Montebello camp and they also a big turn-out. Next year SP should do it on another day so they can get some more kids.

Ok our SPAlum express his or her opinion and so cal SP09 would attack a Alum. Plus take the side of others. I know is wrong! That’s why (him) may husband says people only want to attack SP. Listen kid don’t call a SP person arrogant, fools. Everyone ask your self? Why SP is not going to attend? Because SP doesn’t need to. Whos coach is all time winner? I ‘ll give everyone a hint, not the coach from buffalo bills of high school football. In it is not good enough!

just read !!!

I guess I took my kid out (like others) of there just in time. The Archdiocese won’t commit any money for upgrades or maintenance even for the basics, like restrooms, classrooms etc. without a somewhat winning football team where will the money come from. There’s no swim team, wrestle team, tennis team, real academic clubs and a lot more. The money will have to come from the (football) parents, bottom line.

Obviously only St.Paul committed penalty’s last night (Hum). From what I could see, SP were playing two teams, one with pads and the other with stripes. That’s OK because we have more games to play. So bring it fools, were ready to knock your teeth out!!!!!!!!

Yo, SP ALUM: Yes, St. Paul struggled, but your assessment that 'this was an easy game on our schedule' is a disservice to the impressive job La Mirada's coaches and players have done with the program. It might do well for you to 'feel really bad' for all of the St. Paul players, not just single out one.

Yo, alittlelatearentya!: See reply to Anonymous' post.

Yo, Anonymous: Actually, not that it makes any difference where you're concerned, the predictions were voiced about 5:30 p.m. as we were leaving the office.

Yo, The Pick Guru: Campa picked Montebello. It was a mistake on the blog. It's been corrected.

I think La Mirada took sp lightly. Because the score could have been much bigger for LM, it’s going to be a long season for the swordsmen. I predict Pioneer will beat sp. Coach Pete doesn’t look to bad right now, by the way Montebello won last night, go figure that one.

Good job Oilers it looks like we will be doing just fine. Not alot of size but what a difference on the field.

"Fail for the Swordsmen" enough said.

Great job Campa...you can sure pick em!!!!

0-4

Is this an indication of your football knowledge?

St. Paul Stinks, they will be lucky to win 3 games all year.

St. Paul looked horrible. The staff led everybody to beleive that it was going to be ok, hell no! I don't understand what the heck is going on at the school. Please give me some insight. All we have been getting is excuses this was an easy game on our schedule and look what happened. I feel really bad for Paul Lopez, this is a shame.

CONGRATS TO COACH PETE GONZALEZ AND HIS STAFF FOR A GREAT WIN! WAY TO START OFF YOUR SEASON

predictions are pretty worthless when they come out AFTER the game.

good one guys!

way 2 go Dons, keep it up

Hahaha what a joke SP lost to Lm what happnd to the all mighty swordsmen lmfao

Well Roger, I sometimes do not agree with your philosophy but great pick on La Mirada. Muschetti and the real "Co Head Coach" Brooks is going to bring that program back!!

Good job tonight El Rancho.

(Fandemonium) Season’s Blood Drive is about to commence. All you young men give blood. Play football. A time when hard hitting is not only required but essential and you young men desire it. This season you’ll be your school’s living monument of both a romantic example and enduring past. When you step on the field you’ll make your own history. It’s when home town grid iron heroes become mythical folk legends to your school’s following. Remember to consider it a privilege to represent your local community.

it was 10:24pm on September 4th when this was posted, whats the point of this, the games were already played... I have predictions for you, ER will beat WC 28-17, LM will beat SP 15-7 and MHS will win 14-0..... nooooooooooooooootttttttt
