Rosie 74 there you go again loser,
You talk about a rivaly with Amat and Los Altos, heck that is light weight compare to your ELA cholo gangbanging extravaganza that goes on with garfield and your beloved roosevelt game....stabbings shootings people being beaten in the parking lots........what los altos and Bishop have are a war of words and good old fashion pride for their schools...where you come from that is a whole different game where physical violence occurs.....you member I member........

AMAT 02 said:

Mater Dei is well oiled mean machine, the only team that have the skills and speed to match them is Corona Centennial. Both teams are loaded with speed and athletes, MD has size advantage but CC has speed. And as you know speed kills. You're right Dan, game of the year billing is very appropriate. Centennial beat a good Crespi team that beat a good St. Bonaventure team last night. Any real football fans out there ought to check out this game, which will be televised!

Dan said:

Speaking of Mater Dei, did you see what they did
to Edison, I think the score was 42 to 14, their next game will be vs Corona Centennial, that could be game of the year, I believe CC. is also ranked high in the nation.

Let's hear from the 3 LA fans? What happened to you guys last night? You choked again to SF. Your weaknesses were exposed last night and everyone will now exploit it. 21 points scored in the first 9 minutes? Did SF throw in their reserves so they won't run up the score or what? Geez with that kind of scoring, I would have thought you guys were playing Mater Dei.

The question is who is #1?

Roosevelt alumni
Did you even read the post I was refering to with the beaning comment. Jeremy stated this bad blood between LA and AMAT started during spring ball and I only refered it went back to when LA accused our girl of beaning their on purpose.Talk about ridiculing an athelete,how do you think she felt about that talk. There has been bad blood since then and now carries over to football. If you would look at half of the post you would see it is probably 1/2 fun and games and 1/2 football talk. You need to get a life and don't take this blog so serious. I for one have said I hope all the kids who have transfered and not only to your beloved LA but to other schools as well have nothing but success in their new schools.

Roosevelt Alumni said:

I like it better when grown men, for the most part, talk football rather than talk trash. The jokes about Gano used to be told by bitter benchwarming making Dads in the stands during games or parking lots after games. But at least the kids didn't have to read it or hear about it at school. Amat and LA -it's a rivalry I GET IT! But what the hell did Bryce and other Amat transfers do to deserve your ridicule. GROW UP! and stop acting like former school yard morons. Amat 73 you think it's all in fun and reference the "beaning" last year. Get a life. Talk about football like you played it. X's and O's would be nice every once in a while. The beefs with coaches is part of our modern day sports landscape but really bagging on kids is embarassing to everyone concerned. The blog was going nice until Amat won a game. Too bad.

Epilogue

Gano: Hello, can I speak to (burp) Coach Verti
Secretary: I'm sorry, Mr Verti no longer works here.

LA sucks said:

Final episode, 2 weeks later:

Gano: (calling Verti, taking a swig from a Pabst blue ribbon beer can) "okay Verti, you (burp) win, my fans tell me I have no balls to play you guys. We'll play you next season."

Verti: (with a smirk on his face), "Done deal!".

Gano: "But on one condition (burp, farts), that
you spot me 10 points and give me one of your top running backs and QB and all your fans need to sit on our side to fill the empty seats".

Verti: "Hey, you been drinking again? that's sounds like four conditions to me?".

Gano: "Okay you got me (burp), I lost count. How bout 10 points and 1 keg of beer?"

Verti: "how bout no points and 2 kegs and life supply of your favorite blue ribbon beer?"

Gano: "DEAL! (hiccup, burp, farts, blood shot eyes, barely restraining himself from excitement) "shoot now that I know you are such a good businessman and a scholar, how bout I give you Bryce back for one more keg of beer?".

Verti: "No thanks, we don't want your sloppy seconds"

Los Altos in a coin toss to go to the playoffs. no balls Gano.

CIF DIRECTOR: "OK GANO HEADS OR TAILS"?
Gano: " I do both"

Albert Einstein said:

Okay classroom, today's math lesson is:

Los Altos + Bryce + illegal transfers = win lots of games against lower divisions

Los Altos - no Bryce - no transfers + kids living in HH = win 1 maybe 2 games

Gano - balls = can't hang with big boys

Gano + beer = very delusional coach with a beer gut

Therefore,

Los Altos Football = run away from real competition

and,

Los Altos football team = football Powerhouse wannabe

Come on Conq76 and Jeremy, where's your sense of humor? These guys are just having some fun with you guys at Gano's expense.

Got to admit, some of this stuff is funny

"Gano balls but I got some beer"

BTW that LA county sheriff joke is lame.

Dan said:

Jeremy,
I'm confused, Why would you think I hate Los Altos, I actually attend Los Altos games to cheer you guys on once in a while, if you happen to be playing an out of area team, just as I do if other local teams play teams from other area's.
I saw Glendora last night against West Ranch, & the Tartans are looking real good. Not sure why you've came to that conclusion.

AMAT 73 said:

conqed 76,
I can tell your a funny guy by reading your posts. What realistic changes has la made besides going out and recruiting even harder. By looking at some of the other schools there is plenty of talent in the SGV to compete with the OC. Right now the economic situation to some families just does not warrant spending 7-9 grand per year on a high school education when you are focusing on getting that scholarship if you believe your kid is that talented.There are many good programs in the SGV that provide the exposure to colleges and at the same time you get a free education. Now there are still parents who want both the quality education and exposure to colleges and they choose AMAT because contrary to everyone thinks we still warrant a look at by college scouts. Basically because we prepare our students to succeed in the classroom as well as the athletic field.

Conq'76 said:

I'm a big fan of humor, I am a very funny guy! Seriously, what dynamics do you believe will change so dramatically as to allow Amat the resources to rise to its past glory? As you will recall, back in the day, with Amat, W Covina, South Hills and LA the SGV had several teams who could be considered to be among the eltie in So Cal. However, in the last 25-30 years that area has matured, and school populations have shrank.

At the same time the Inland Empire exploded and has cranked out some very strong teams while the same can be said for South Orange County.

This trend forced realistic changes onto most teams in the SGV who have all adjusted and now we can enjoy seeing our teams play against each other in some competitive venues. This trend has been recognized by everyone except Amat it seems, who seem determined not to face the realities of their plight and are holding out for some sort of dramatic change.

I just think there is no shame in adjusting to the realities of life, thats all.

Not being mean just trying to inject a little humor but if you are that thin skinned well I am sorry it's all in fun . Remember the old school yard rhyme, sticks and stones and so on. We are fine where we are at in the Serra. We have been down before and have risen up to the top time after time and you and your pal jeremy can keep your sympathy and generousity to yourselves.

In a Rodney King mumble ;

BE POSITIVE . Life is way to short , Winning seasons and championships , are few & far between , SOME schools have better luck than others . I remember a few years ago , without naming names ..this SGV "POWERHOUSE " was supposed to win it all ...they LOST , to a neighboring school from right down the road . Some schools WIN year after year . BOTTOM LINE , Bishop Amat IS A WINNER , year in & year out . They are on a downer the past few , but STILLRANK among teh BEST in the SGV . PERIOD . Enough Bishop Amat vs the WORLD TALK , let get to some REAL GAMES . No more what if games ...

Cano: No luck there. They are winning.

Lacky: What are we going to do?

Cano: I don't know. Let's go to City Lights and strategize.

Conq'76 said:

Amat 73

Maybe Amat should lobby for the Miramonte, I thought I was being generous recommending the Sierra, but the point is, it seems as if you are beating your heads against a wall in league each year and it is bad for the psyche....

(Now I noticed you felt compelled to refer to me as "conqed '76", very humorous, but please note I refrained from refering to you as "a mat 73" as in door "mat" which would have been clever but downright mean, and I am anything but down right mean!)LOL

Jeremy said:

Amat,

I NEVER said, that we drew a bigger crowd, than you, but we do draw a very good, and packed crowd. What holes??? Try catching a game, and stop basing all your facts from video footage, and paper. Believe me LA fans are some of the BEST in the area, they love their team. PERIOD.

See what I mean, I post a response, and a statement, and I get back spiteful attacks, you guys clearly lack any visible class.

Like I've stated in the past, if you guys went 0-10, 1-9, 2-8, or whatever, you would still boast the claim of not only being the best team in the SGV, but the "hands down" best team in the SGV, and that is just not plausible, not for ANY one team. It's pretty stupid. Especially, when you are getting routed.

This is why NO ONE feels sorry for you. But, I know, you are Bishop Amat, the mighty, the BIG blue, you guys always shine, I know. You don't need anyones sympathy, because "Amat is fine . . .", isn't that right?

Well, keep on believing that, but you do need the sympathy, because that sympathy will come from the class of Freshman, and the generations following of Athletes and their parents who may otherwise choose NOT to shell out $7,000 in tuition. Why?

AMAT 73 said:

Jeremy,
You need to be corrected. All this started when some of your fellow classy alums and fans accused our girls softball pitcher of purposely beaning your all star pitcher. Since then all this has been brewing and now it is spilling over to football.Now to say you people aren't talking any smack you must really have your head up where the sun doesn't shine. The only way is to get this game scheduled and let it get settled on the field.

David L said:

Ron Jeremy,

10 top reasons Gano refuse to play Amat:

1 - I'm afraid I have a hangover and can't remember Verti's number

2 - I'm afraid, period.

3 - I'm afraid, my balls will shrink and disappear.

4 - I'm afraid, my wife will leave me

5 - I'm afraid, I'll lose my job, my dignity.

6 - I'm afraid, to play with 7,000 screaming fans

7 - I'm afraid, I'll get sick and I don't have disability insurance.

8 - I'm afraid to play Amat, so they get all the glory

9 - I'm afraid, if I lose, I will get no more transfers.

And number ten, (drum roll)

10 - I'm afraid, I'll get more negative publicity than Brittany Spears and OJ.

Jeremy said:

TM,

I believe LA will take it, but Tamayo and his recievers, including TE Rodrriguez MUST get in a collective groove. When throwing the short ball, Tamayo has step into his throws, and the recievers must come up with those catches.

Once this happens, I personally will feel so much better.

By the way TM, in case you misunderstood my last post, I was just saying that you gave the opinion of LA being able to beat Amat, etc. Nothing negative, I was trying to state, that we haven't gone there, like a couple of them have claimed. Thanks for the compliment, though.

Good luck to the PANTHERS!

“....As far as the game is concerned, Bonita is going to win because of coaching. It's not that San Dimas coaching is bad, but Bonita's is just that good. Bonita will beat Northview and edge out San Diams. Zernickow's wing-t cannot hang with Podley's spread offense. Podley is yet again developing an awesome QB out of nowhere....”

Bonita's QB, Paradez, has played the position for years and backed up Chavez last year as a Soph.

AMAT FANS WAKE UP WE SUCK

Jeremy said:

LAsucks,

Calm down, dude. We're not even the ones talking the smack, or saying we can beat this, or that team.
TM is a Rosemead fan, and I forget the others, but LA fans aren't talking smack, only when provoked, as a matter of fact, this was started by an Amat fan, and a couple more that followed saying: " . . . oh no, LA is NOT a power house, HA!" OR "play some real teams . . ." "Amat is still better . . . ."
Go back, and READ the threads, everytime our name comes up, you guys have jumped on us, ever since spring football. We get it, you hate us, and Dan(West Covina fan) hates us, GREAT! Join the club, I grew up with this garbage.

Say what you want, but we win with dignity, just look at who I like to consider our classiest blogger JHKRYON, I might have mis-spelled that, but that guy, he has the most class on this blog.

Jeremy said:

First thing is first . . . .

I keep hearing the same regurgitated s***, LA whooped a D-1 doormat, etc. Yeah, they did, but according to the Amat bloggers, even lower end Pac-5 is superior to D-6. I can quote a few of you, from last year to now.
By the way getting SMACKED by D-1, and D-4(Hart) powerhouses doesn't make you competitive, it indicates how dilusional your program is, because they are stuck in the past, and full of their own "kool-aide".

LA'S 3 fans, blah blah, Keifer is always packed, LA has no fans, oh yeah?!
Anyone attend last weeks game against Damien, who by the way would also beat you this year, anyway . . . my oh my LA fans loud, and found everywhere WALL TO WALL! And it was AT Damien! 300 fans my a**! As all you Lancers, and Lancer wannabee's like to claim.

By the way, bluorca LA beat Damien by the same margin as St. John Bosco, eleven points.

Gano is an awesome coach, and ducks NO ONE. Go ahead, and tell Verti, or McCutcheon as far who may have the job to give him a call.

p.s. those transfers are where they want to be, they weren't a gift. They left because of ARROGANT, classless IDIOTS like all of you.

Prep League Fan said:

Yes, I know why they got rid of the numbers. In general, there is not a big gap between levels near each other, but it is preposterous to say that teams are not grouped because of ability. The reality is there is a big gap between the Pac-5 and everyone else. The differences between D-2 and D-6 are relatively small but progressive. Everyone got excited when Ayala beat Duarte, and talked about how Ayala might "make some noise". A bad D2 school SHOULD beat a good D11 school. As those teams have played competition closer to their level, the scores have reverted to what we expect.

Giving the divisions names properly deemphasized the small differences between divisions near to each other, but in no way did it eliminate them.

We know who we are and we still get a little respect for the fact of what we have done in the past and could possibly do in the future. Believe you me we are far from being wiped off the map. I love your statment on maybe we should lobby to join the Sierra League. There you go dodging us again .What you should have said is we should join the Miramonte League but then you would have to play us every year and we all know you want no part of that.By the way we did schedule Glendora and Damien and Charter Oak a few years back because at least they have the b_lls to play us which apparently is lacking at la.

LA beats Amat this year with what our ex 3rd and 4th string QB's Tillis and Tamayo and our 2nd string RB McBride....McB is running well right now and I will give him that but you guys are riding his coat-tails. Who else has stepped up for you...I do give credit to Rodruguez and Longoria on the line they are good. Play someone first before saying you are top dog in the SGV. It is true from your coach that their is no confidence in Tamayo to throw the ball ,that's why your riding Bryce. 3 games and the season is early and when teams figure out How to stop Bryce your team is done. Imagine had Bryce stayed at Amat or went elsewhere...I dont think we would be having this conversation..

bluorca said:

This is only Verti's second season as head coach.


And yet he and/or the coaching admin had the ballz to schedule powerhouses like Valencia, San Diego's Vista, City power Carson, Farm Hart, Los Osos, and let's not forget the Defending State Champs Orange Lutheran.

And yet people like LA Conq believe that Amat is afraid to schedule Los Altos...whose most difficult scheduled game in God knows how long was last year against St. Francis...And LA lost. They probably consider Damien a powerhouse as well. What a funny joke.

LA Conq said:

LA Sucks...

DeSpain left LA 5 years ago. Next excuse.

Lets get it on said:

It’s not probably, its most definitely that we would kick you’re butt right now!

Maybe GANO can reach down around that hung beer belly of his and grab to see if he has the b---- to schedule it!

LA sucks said:

I got $1000 bucks that says Gano or DeSpaine will decline. Difiori tried in vain to schedule you boys during his tenure to no avail. It is not a mystery to the old Amat inner circle that it is in Despaine's personal policy/agenda to refrain from playing Amat in football (0-3 against Amat). For reasons, I believe is the obvious...that is how to deal with the negative publicity generated from an inevitable loss against the "degenerate" of a football team.

LA Conq said:

amat still rules...

You dumbass...you act like it's the school's choice to move up to D1. That is up to CIF.


Big Blue...

You're right! Amat has played other good teams from the SGV and beaten them in past years. So why haven't they played LA. Oh, that's right cause WE'RE scared of you. I'm sure Amat had nothing at all to do with the scheduling of those SGV teams. I'm sure CO, Damien, and Glendora came begging you to play them, the way you dream Gano would.

Reality check homie...it takes two to tango...and two to NOT tango. You act like Gano is the ONLY one who is responsible for this game not happening. When was it that Verti called Gano and asked to play? Oh that's right, I forgot...It HAS to be US that calls YOU to schedule this game!

Why don't you degenerate has-beens get off your blue and gold blow-up couch, call your boy Verti and tell HIM to call Gano and get this game set up. Trust me...Gano will not decline. Come on...we have an opening next year. Make it happen.

"I asked Verti at a Tuesday night chalk talk and he would love to schedule Los Altos "

Okay AMAT...if you talk to the guy so often then tell him to make it happen.

You know what though...all you guys are probably right in the end. You would most likely beat us. And I'm okay with that hypothetical loss. Enjoy your 3-6 season Lancers. Make sure you come watch some of our Playoff games in November when your boys have moved on to Basketball preseason.

Now they say smudge pot back at San Dimas. District can't make up their minds.
La Verne, Saints def is much stronger and faster this year, should be able to contain the spread offense. Starting def has allowed only one td in the first half this year.

Amat still rules said:

Conquibine 76,

Difference between those D6 teams are that OLU grew balls and moved up to play with the big boys. LA couldn't grow balls and schedules Rosemead Rebels (no knock to RHS), JAA teams, West Covina Bruins, other has beens and D1 doormats.

Conq'76 said:

Reality Check...

Your point seems to be that by the sheer virtue of Amat being D1, there is no way this current LA team could hang with them, problem is, history does not bear you out.

Just a few short seasons ago, two D6 teams were among the elite in the Southland, LA and OLu. No one doubted this and anyone who did was denying the obvious.

Instead of the Old Amat guard desperately trying to hang onto a long lost glory by remaining in a Div. they clearly can no longer compete in, they should lobby to become part of the Sierra league and lineup against th likes of Glendora and Damien.

Then maybe the vindictive bitterness which seems to be all that remains of the former dominance that was Amat, can be channeled into something constructive. Last time I checked, it takes much more than the rants of disgruntled and frustrated alumni to propel a "Once upon a time team" bsck from the precipice.

Dan said:

Goldie who said West Co is "supposed" to Beat Rancho C. As a West Co fan I see it as a good close game and if we win, it might be considered to be an upset by many. Also there is no West Co fans on here claiming that the Bulldogs would beat Amat, Last year it would have been a great game, this year we are young & most of the team lacks varsity experience, The game this Friday will be a good gage as to where West Co is at. But even if we lose, being as young as we are there will be plenty of room to improve even by the end of this season.

PS. Hey #1fan, whats going on? I'll go check out the Glendora game tonight & cheer on the Tartans
& the SGV hopefully they can show the SCV that the SGV can play ball to. Also I can't wait till
tommorow night to see the West Co. game hope we
pull it out.

For the blogger who wanted to know, the smudge pot is placed between trees in an orchard, allowing the heat and smoke from the burning oil to prevent the accumulation of frost on the fruit of the grove.
The cities of San Dimas and La Verne used to come together and use the smudgepot since there were nothing but orange trees around during this time.

As far as the game is concerned, Bonita is going to win because of coaching. It's not that San Dimas coaching is bad, but Bonita's is just that good. Bonita will beat Northview and edge out San Diams. Zernickow's wing-t cannot hang with Podley's spread offense. Podley is yet again developing an awesome QB out of nowhere. I said at the start of the season he's the best coach in the area and I stand by my claim. Arellanes and his D-Coordnator are good coaches, but no Podley. Same goes for Zernickow and the San Dimas guys as well, especially that young D-Coordnator they have. He's a nice kid and all, but doesn't have what it takes to stop the spread.

Go Bearcats!!

Come on Gano grow some and schedule Amat next year so we can shut all of your 3 dumba$$ fans up once and for all. We'll beat you in Baseball, basketball, wrestling, swimming, badmington, ping pong and thumb wrestling.

LA thinks they have balls because they beat the doormat of the Moore league LB Wilson. Woo Hoo! Try growing bigger balls and play LB Poly. St Paul who'm Amat will beat this year would also kick your LA conq's asses.

Lancer 2 DN said:

If Amat goes 2-8 I will be the first to say they do not belong in any top ten..........4-6 5-5 more like it. Carson is a turning point game to a .500 or above season. Winning two out of three games in Serra league play will be a tough accomplishment for the Lancers. It can be done tho. I really do not see them losing to THE SLIME(St. Paul) or Bishop Alemeny.

Amat won't go 2 and whatever

big Panther said:

If amat goes 2 and what ever will they still be ranked in sgv?

bluorca said:

It's very simple LA Conq,

It's well known that Amat has loads of history scheduling against some of the top programs in Southern California.

Can you give the class an example of a top program that Los Altos has actually scheduled in the past
20 years be it DeSpain or Gano?

Orange Lutheran does not count because they were not actually scheduled.

Big Blue said:

LA Con-queso,

Cheese thats right......your team would cheese up if they played Amat....also what does that say about Amat..we beat up and blanked CO a few years back at their home field, we also beat Glendora and Damien..we do schedule those teams and those teams and coaches have the sacks to play us...I dont see your point and it gets worse because all the smack certain fan base of LA runs, is not backed up by the fact that you will not schedule us....Your coach needs to come to us if he wants to knock the king of the SGV off the top...he stands to gain not the other way around.......we dont need you guys to prove shi- you need us ........

Prep League Fan said:

Yes, the divisions now have names instead of numbers, but it is in fact very easy to see which named divisions correspond to the previous numbered divisions. Calpreps.com lists the level (number) next to the name of the division.

For reference
Serrra is Pac-5 (D1)
Sierra is Inland (D2)
Baseline is Inland (D2)
Miramonte is Southwest (D6)
Mission Valley is Southeast (D7)
Valle Vista is Northwest (D10)
Montview is Mid-Valley (D11)
Christian is East Valley (D12)

I think this covers all of the local leagues.

Amat said:

It has been already noted that there is no division numbers. And Verti has said different to me. So since you didn't ask him, LA Conq, I'm going to believe my eye witness account.

AMAT 73 said:

la conqed ,
The gain would be shutting you jackasses up on your bullsh_t claims of being the powerhouse of the SGV. Now be truthfull you know damn well it is you who do not want to play us because when you lose and you would lose how would you face the rest of the SGV because there are not enough holes in the hills of HH for all of you to hide in and cry.Besides this year would have been the time for you to play us with all the transfers to try and get a little revenge on their old school.

LA Conq said:

Verti does not want to play LA. He's not stupid, he knows that BA has nothing to gain from this game. There are only two possible outcomes for BA and neither is really all that good.

1) You beat us and the greater area gives you NO props because you beat a D6 team. Nothing positive other than shutting LA fans up, which I'm sure Verti could care less about.

2) You lose to us and BA falls even further into the abysmal downward spiral that has been the past few years. You'd be a joke to the rest of the area and all of D1.

Verti knows this and so he won't go out of his way to schedule us. He probably also knows (unlike most of you jackasses) that LA actually has a fantastic team and would have a legitimate shot at winning that game.

SHHS remember this when you play West Covina its going to be like your playing there JV team because of the 7 or 8 starters that are in the 10th grade and belive me they are BAD!!!! Like the blogger (waz hap-ning) said West Covina is no push over and dont be suprized going home with a loss.... this team is going to be aroung for another 2years watch out... Charter Oak put the SMACK DOWN on you last year and if you play them again same thing you LOSE. Yeah you get a big win over Walnut, Nogalas and Rowland but dont think its going to be easy when West Covina comes to your feild or does it belong to Northview....

West Covina is in the house............

Big Blue said:

Rubber man,errrrrrr trojan man,

Go figure it out again foolio,

LA beats Amat this year with what our ex 3rd and 4th string QB's Tillis and Tamayo and our 2nd string RB McBride....McB is running well right now and I will give him that but you guys are riding his coat-tails. Who else has stepped up for you...I do give credit to Rodruguez and Longoria on the line they are good. Play someone first before saying you are top dog in the SGV. It is true from your coach that their is no confidence in Tamayo to throw the ball ,that's why your riding Bryce. 3 games and the season is early and when teams figure out How to stop Bryce your team is done. Imagine had Bryce stayed at Amat or went elsewhere...I dont think we would be having this conversation..

Amat said:

There is no more number divisions. Amat is not D1 and Los Altos is not D6. Everyone Quit bringing it up.

I don't see why they won't play. I asked Verti at a Tuesday night chalk talk and he would love to schedule Los Altos and any area team. He saw it as a great way to excite the Valley.

I agree with that.

This down D1 team would still kick your D6 a--..

I guess CIF doesn't make all the right moves, but I think they do try and kept schools aligned property.

If you think you’re a powerhouse, then go play the powerhouse team’s year in and year out.

You state why would we want to schedule you and that this would not be an issue back in the 80's and 90's. Well back then you knew your place, but now you fans pop off on how AMAT isn't sh_ t anymore and we are done and in terrible shape and you are now the power of the SGV.That is why you should schedule us. Remember we know we would kick your a_ _es and you only hope you can do it and that is why you will never see AMAT vs. LA. because you can't risk the fact of uniting the whole SGV in laughing their a_ _ off when we beat you .

They can be proud of thier son, as all of Glendora is.

SHHS,

Your team was projected to go unbeaten and play and Represent So Cal vs No Cal in a Bowl game , at least thats what our last host(Aram Tolegian) proclaimed for your team. 0-2 start looks mighty fine right now...Wells is not all that..looks like LA got the better player out of Amat (McBride).....Your stats will eventually look good when you get to league and beat up on the likes of Walnut, Nogales and Rowland, but WC is going to make you earn it. Come playoffs you are one and done........count on it........CO punked you last year and CO will punk you this year. also going to LA on their Homecoming, your team is going to come limping home....a Claremont win is not going to make you a contender.

Conq'76 said:

Joe Colt...

At least LA and DR will be able to settle matters on the field. Should LA beat DR I wonder if the Amat faithful will extend any love to LA since DR stayed in the game against an established D1 powerhouse earlier in the season?

Probably not...

SHHS said:

OH #1 FAN

The tribune loves SHHS, or we has workers over here! What a crock of excuses. Your sorry a-- just barely beat BP, and Claremont would kick your butt like MD did.

We'll see your little team in November for the title coming home again to that team called SOUTH HILLS!

Big Blue said:

Feel bad for the Glendora kids injury (hope he is not a senior), it really Sucks when you are senior and the season has not started or you are into your season 2-3 games and you get a season ending injury. Even when it is not season ending it takes time to get back with Doctors clearance etc. by that time the team and coaches really do not give you a look they are set on what they are playing with....good luck to all senior SGV football players, enjoy your last year on the HS football field, stay safe and knock some heads. It sucks for the senior parents as well.

Goldie said:

If West Covina loses to Rancho Cucamonga this Friday what would that say if they played Amat. WC is supposed to win this game but by some fluke they lose they have no business talking about playing Amat much more claiming they can beat Amat. Rancho is not that bad of a team and they do have some speed in their line up.

#1FAN said:

Ahhhhhh, The blogger shhs is back because they get a win against a week Clarmont team but LOST the last 2 games and was no ware to be found. get over it dude like I said before for some reason the Tribune LOVES to talk great thing about South hills maybe a worker over there lives in south hills. With all the talent the Tribune says they have we havent heard a thing about them except for Wells. West Covina is hanging in there even with a young team and Belive me they play hard...... Ill wait for your silly comeback to my blogg

Thanks for finally giving Rosemead some credit and it just shows that this little team has a whole lot of heart. I hope that someday RHS can play a team like San Dimas who barley beat a hurting SEM team.

Stop the hatin and Fred you know football to bad some of these people do not know a damn thing!

I meant to say no disrespect to LA in my last post, you guys have a great team but in my honest opinion DR deserves the areas #1 ranking...

LA Conq at September 26, 2007 09:50 PM

Oh, are we acting like an emotional b----.

The funny thing is that you really believe you’re a legitimate powerhouse. By who’s standards? Doesn't matter who you've played, then I guess any school would be considered powerhouse too, if schedule doesn't matter.

Its pretty simple dude: You’re not the number 1 team in the SGV and the strength of your schedule doesn’t warrant it!

Joe Colt said:

I am with Blu and #1 Fan, Diamond Ranch is the areas #1 at this point...

No respect to LA but lets be realistic, no one hangs with Edison, beats Chino Hills and then the D5 CIF rep from San Diego by accident...

West Covina is not ranked and there's a reason for it!

Some of you bloggers are funny. Amat will beat any SGV team even if they are haveing a bad year. Its just Amat is the team to hate in the SGV because of all the bloggers that couldent afford to go there. And by the way West Covina should be above San Dimas, Duarte and Rosemead even with all the 10th graders playing.... I also think Diamond Ranch should be #1 but hey the Tribune LOVES to talk about South Hills and Los Altos for some reason? Go WEST COVINA.......

Brent Marteney

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a safe and speedy recovery! I know this must be hurting you and you parents right now!

Seeing any kid go down after all the hard work just hurts. I went thru it with my son last year! Good luck to you young man!

LA Conq said:

The simple fact that you feel we SHOULD be scheduling you shows your respect for our program. We're D6 dumbass! You're D1. Why in the world should we be scheduling a "top notch" (HA!)D1 team? Wait, better question...why the F#%& would YOU want to schedule US...a D6 team?

See this is proof that Bishop Amat has fallen on hard times. This was never even a debate back in the late 80's/early 90's. Those Lancers would have laughed at a discussion like this. You should be talking about whether to play Mater Dei or Santa Margarita or LB Poly or Los Alamitos. But if you want to put us in the same breath as them...thank you.

Amat still will crush you said:

LB Wilson is a weak OC team, everybody knows LB Poly is the powerhouse over there. Rosemead, come on, good for there size of school, but no powerhouse and Damien, we'll Blu is right.

You guys crack me up, just schedule us next year and tell Gano to MAN UP!

What the hell is a Smudge Pot anyway?

GO SD said:

It doesn't matter if the Smudge Pot is moved to Mt.Sac

No advantage for either team!

The crowd is going to be BIG and neither stadium can hold the attendance. Last year at Bonita, over One hour wait, plus fans were standing around the track.

How fun for the players and parents…

Get ready Fred, your first year at Smudge Pot… Will be one of the biggest draws of the year and the electricity will be in the air!

Dan said:

Joe Amat as for West Co not playing Amat, I doubt
its cause they fear Amat, & by the way, I don't see the Amat staff calling up West Co for a game
neither.

LA Conq said:

Bluorca...

LA is the only legitimate power (sorry SD) that is still undefeated. That's why they're ranked #1. It doesn't matter who they've played...they're undefeated and they've had solid wins.

Doesn't really matter though...They're going to play eachother so things will eventually be sorted out properly.

Dan said:

Vanner I agree with you about Amat if they still
had those players, McBride, Wells, Seanez, Bonilla
and others, it might have been enough to challenge the pac 5 elite, I was told when this class of seniors were freshmen that the D1 title
was going to be between Amat & Mater Dei when they turn seniors, unfortunately as we now see
it just wasn't to be.
Good luck vs Fullerton, they will be tough but
judgeing from your Claremont game, it looks like
the Huskies are starting to put things together.

VANNER said:

Dan,
The next few weeks will go a long way in sorting out W.C., S.H. and B.A. strengths right now. Its too bad the Amat program lost all those players this year, I believe that with all that talent staying home, that team would have really made a statement in the Pac 5 playoffs.

605 Fan said:

Yeah, Amat vs. West Co would be fun to watch. I just get tired of one of the "best teams" in the area always getting 5 or 6 losses every year and not make the play-offs. Got to give it to West Co right now.

On the Smudgepot, if that game is at Mt. Sac, shame on the parents. That is the reason it is moved, huge advantage for Bonita. Bonita coaches are loving this.

bluorca said:

I'm back to continue the party!

Someone explain to me why Los Altos is ranked above Diamond Ranch.....?

Diamond Ranch plays Pac-5 farm Edison close, destroys Chino Hills, and beats the Defending San Diego Div. 5 champion in Christian High...

Los Altos beats Rosemead, LB Wilson, and Damien...

~No need to comment on Rosemead.

~LB Wilson Pac-5 ya'll say??? HAHA! Wilson has never been a Pac-5 powerhouse. Anyone that has any game in Long Beach goes to Poly. But this is old news. Wilson is Pac-5 only because of geography and student population.

~Damien??? Damien is not half the team they were last year. Damien only managed a 7 pt victory over an 0-3 Claremont. South Hills massacred Claremont 32-7 folks. If Los Altos was truly #1, they would have routed Damien. And granted, McBride did have a great game...the end result was only an 11 pt. victory.

So again, now that a bit more light is shined on the situation, how is it that Los Altos is ranked ahead of Diamond Ranch?

smudgepot at Mt Sac this year??? big break for Bonita

Dan said:

West Co. is the team I love, but I wouldn't go so far as to say we should be ranked above Amat, Amat isn't the team they were 10 years ago, but even this year they will still beat most teams in the area, This Friday will tell a lot about where West Co is, remember they are young with seven sophmores including their QB as starters.
Last season would have been the year for West Co to challenge Amat, if Demond Wallace & Tyler Hockenhull had fully bought into the Bulldog program I could see it as a 13 & 1 season + a D6 title, there would have been to much speed & teams wouldn't have been able to just key on Demonds brother William Wallace.

BIG DADDY said:

NV Fan,
Reality sets in and you realize that NV is not as good as you think you are. Yall are suppose to be the BIG DOGS and not lose. The rankings are pretty much base on the caliber of the team and the teams they play. If NV played any of the teams BA played, NV would get crushed. Yall couldn't even hold there jock straps. BA has a better program and has been that way for years. NV is just a one hit wonder and will soon beforgotten. Good Luck looking up from the bottom.

AMAT 73 said:

605 FAN,
How can you possibly say WC if they beat Rancho they should be ranked above AMAT. After we beat Rancho everyone discounts it as we only did what we should have done and that beating them really means nothing since they are not the team they were last year, now WC beating them will be a big win. As far as playing anyone,anytime they haven't played us and we are only down the street and a quick left turn at Orange. Now that would show guts.

Chris Rome said:

Thank You... Glendora would like to have a Barbone or Mcbride. Who wouldn't. What would your teams be without them? 'Winless' Dont worry about Glendoras backfield. Pasqy has it covered..

If Bonita beats Northview going into Smudge Pot, that will add more intrigue to next week's game. I can't wait to see how San Dimas handles its rival. Def., the game of the week and video game of the week.

605,
WC over amat if they beat Rancho? Didn't amat just do that too? WC gets props for choosing to play MD, but didn't the lancers just play O-Lu?
Gotta come up with another tie breaker to convince us. Love to see an amat/WC matchup. Would have been nice instead of either of the above matchups to see two locals lline up

Thank you said:

Hi Fred:

I have enjoyed your threads! I am a SD fan and know some kids on the team. Personally, it really wouldn't matter if the Saints were in the top 10 or not. We know they come from a smaller school, but have played well together so far this year. I can't speak for everybody, but I'll take the wins over rankings any day. It's nice that we are getting some press and have some great players to talk about! Thank you...

For the record, not sure SD or LA would run all over Glendora Defense... On the other hand I would bet, they would love to have Barbone or McBride!

Good luck SGV and hope everyone goes deep into the playoffs!

605 Fan said:

Close Fred (11-15) I forgot, West Covina. They could be a top 10 team ahead of Amat, San Dimas, Duarte, Rosemead. This week is interesting folks. Bonita vs Northview. If Bonita wins, all the Northview fans will finally quiet down. If Bonita wins, chalk up another great job by the Bonita coaching staff. Those guys work magic.

If West Covina beats Rancho, huge win. I don't care if Rancho is down, that is a big time win, then I think you have to put West Covina all the way above Amat. Come on, at least West Covina had the guts to take on Mater Dei. They'll play anyone, anytime, anywhere. I love that style.

605 Fan Out.

Hey Fred,

I enjoyed "Getting a Line on Success" also. It seems as is the case with most contenders, staying healthy is going to be the key. These two appear to have that unique combination of ability, tools and a willingness to learn. I have said in the past that LA's staff seems extraordinarily gifted in its ability to teach and coach linemen.

Freddy...

Great article about Ray and Nick. Those two are something else! Not only great football players but truly great kids.

Tough one this week against St. Francis. I don't thin it's going to be nearly as easy as you think it is brother. This is a good team that has not played well in their first few games. If they expose our shaky secondary we could be in for a loooooong night.

You crack me up!

Now everybody is going to think I'm you and you are me. And the whole group of conspiracy theorist are going to think you and I are up to something like they did with A.T. and myself.

(laughing)

Speaking of A.T. I gotta give him a call I haven't talked to that playboy in a couple weeks.

Late!
