Saturday Night Football: Bishop Amat rolls over Diamond Ranch, 41-13

It looks like Iam irritating a couple of dads on this blog. Could it be that you don't want to make any waves for fear of jr getting beat out of a position. If you can't stand the heat then get out of the kitchen as the saying goes. Look the only thing that I'm saying is you can not win it all when your offense scores seven pts a game. As for getting off the coaches ass, when you show me that you own this blog then you can tell me when or whan I can or can't. Voice my opinion. I will give my opinion about you or any coach when and if I choose

Amat 73 I realize that you go in with a game plan but come on when your ahead as we were in the third quarter you have to give some of these other kids a.shot. Its not like you get a lot of opportunitis. As for the kids that deserve a chance I can think of kids like Damian Haynes Chris Garcia Nick Ramos Andy Rivera Zac Shay and on.n on No one more than me(and this is for.the kids only) win this whole thing unlike some of these dads that have never played a down in their life that live through the eyes of their kid.

Great takes on call what i see. A question for call as I see based on your posts. I understand your point of 2nd and 3rd stringers on Saturday but this was the first time we have had such a big lead, do you think Hags wanted to let the 1st string try a few new things where it could not hurt the outcome of the game seeing as we leading by such a large margin. You say if St B would have been playing it would have been 41-0 at half. Maybe your right but our game plan is to pound it and wear you down. I don't think the staff took DR so lightly as to think we come in and do what we did. It is hard to change a game plan you work on all week just because you start to blow the other team out early. Go in at the half and come out and try a few new things . Now just out of curiosity who are the kids you speak of that deserve more playing time . Not a knock or being sarcastic just interested on who you think those kids are since they haven't seen playing time as you put it . It is hard sit thunder and lighting when you have them right in front of you. In all my year affiliated with AMAT I have come to learn when one of the Men in Blue goes down up come sanother one out of the Blue . I can remember when Jay Anderson came when I think Wagner went down and it was amazine to see this young man just tear it up for a few plays he was in. Now it his time to shine under the lights.

THAT SHOULD DO IT...LOL

Hey you have to give me credit...it wasn't easy...lol

I do see the mans point but he was trying to kill a fly with a hammer, if you get my drift. A mistake free game plan beats Amat and if you ask nicely Ill tell you how...lol

see it as ,
That should satisfy call it's needs on his takes on Amat. Nicely put and quite frankly to the point. In laymens terms, hey call it ,get off the coaches asses and let them do what they do best .
Also what is your definition of adequate. Let's hear that because that might make a difference in your post. To me they are getting the job done week after week quite adequately . Do you differ on that point.

call what i see it , " Just look at this stat.
5-0
That should answer all your ???s No more needs to be said.

call it like i see it

apparently you want some one to reflect on your observatons. they are in essence outstanding and insightful!! the sheer briliance of it all is the simplicity with which you communicate these observations, yes you are a clever mind. the team is a two prong force that rarely strays from this proven formula is what I believe you intend to discuss, yes? the game illustarted the power of a more varied offense and does uniquely support your contention however few would argue this team has had success with this focused attack, and your observations are duly noted.now allow the coaches to incorporate others as league begins and the players confidence grows. on behalf of all amat well wishers every where...thanl you for having the guts to come forward.

Tell it how it really is...

Oh oh I think I may have hit a nerve. What, is this getting close to home.
First of all even if I did have a dawg in this fight nothing changes. Just look at the stats. That should answer all your ???s No more needs to be said.

Amat 73

I think you miss read what I said and that is that the reason we are 5-0 is because of the defense and special teams and that the offense is just adequate. In fact its amazing for not being as big as some of the competition they make it up with guts and dedication. These kids are awessome

Call it like i see it...for an old man that has no dog in the fight you show alot of concern..whos really your kid ?

What are u talking about said..
I must not be seeing the same thing, the diference is I see the game objectively not what I want to see or what will happen. You said if I saw the first drive, HELLO!! I would hope that they get at least one against the defense they were facing.
I also said that the score should have been 41-13 in the fisrt half. The fact that you don't give other kids a chance or oppotunity to show their skill under game situation and especially when you get the opportunty in my. opinion is ridiculous. I wonder what the score would have been if ST BOn would have played DR. Probably 41-0 in the fist half. What would it hurt? If the 2Nd or 3rd string get in trouble Hagg can bring in his dynamic duo to save the day. I would love to see amat take the whole thing but unfortunately unless hag fine tunes the offense it probably can't happen. Whether you want to look at this objectively or not the real reason we are 5-0 is because of the special teams and the gutty defence. And goes for all the games we've played. This offense at best is adequate and unfortunele adequate aint gonna cut it. Just call what I see.

Lance R...come on Dranchhh and Anonymous have been the only DR people who have shown anyone any lack of respect( and Anonyomous was actually a back stabbing figment of some one's over active imagination). I was at the game and on the sidelines and DR were gracious host...no one from Amat was treated poorly and the event went off in first class fashion. So why stoop to such nonsensical comments.

Roddy Layton made the statement.."all is right in the San Gabriel Valley now that Bishop Amat is back on top"...is that not a classy statement?

Your coach interupted his team comments and the players removed their helmets and faced the DR team as they sang their Alma Mater...so why take shots at a whole community when one or two misguided souls venture off Steet Character?

Have some class yourself and rise above it all. Amat is King and everyone will hopefully take their shots and play King of The Hill for a day...hopefully sometime soon some one climbs the mountain and sticks their flag there but untll then never forget that BA is playing DOWN to get their wins and recruits...never forget that. Apologies to Joey and to St. Bonnies who are obviously the exception.

Your coaching staff deserves game balls as much as your players. The coaches see tendencies and make on the fly adjustments and seeing as who hose coaches are..well the results are clear...Amat will win allot of games because they are fundamentally off the chart, well conditioned and realy on a staff to move the pieces...beter than most.

Best of luck to BA and best of luck to DR, clearly he most misunderstood program in the Valley....and that's too bad.

Saturday Nites Game:

What a following these Lancers have always had and is now growing with fan intrest moreso as Amat has demonstrated once again why they are the SGV only D1 football team. St. Bonnies was a game between to good football programs, but this Diamond Ranch team was not what it was last year and is really weak. Team size in numbers they did not have allot of players. It was over in the first quarter. Ganesha could not accomadate the Lancers crowd with seating, and who dare wants to go sit in the Diamond Ranch side. With the run of the mouth that some were spewing here reguarding DR playing Amat tough, your all FOS..full of @$#%..the chants of "we are DR" after the first quarter turned to "We are done".Amats defense swams to the ball carrier, The offense was toying with you and special teams was huge once again. On to the Slime we go. 5-0 and Cal preps has it 34-7 another Amat predicted win over the Slimeballz. This Amat team is playing very good hard hitting very well prepared football. When League play starts most have figured Crespi and Notre Dame to control and go 1 and 2 and come out of the Serra to the CIF, I would not be too sure about that. This Amat team can play some football. Lastly: The big guy on the sidelines I am guessing is the kid from Glendora, Man if he gets cleared to play it is going to get real intresting as the Lancers get stronger with this new addition. CO over Amat on a neutral field FRED? You may have to re-think that Alfredo and Rewrite that. Come on Fred it is ok to eat a little crow. Mighty Are The Men That Wear The Blue And Gold.

Diamond Ranch Coach Roddy Layton, whose Panthers will square off with the Lancers in Week 5 of the 2008 season, is glad that Bishop Amat reached into it's history for its new coach. However, he says Amat still has a long way to go before being what it once was.

“I don’t think teams in this area are just going to roll over for Amat," he said. "Hopefully, he’ll bring back the tradition. Amat was always the team that represented the area the best.

Congratulations to the Men in Blue. Another fine perfomance and a solid win. We usually do not win by such a large spread but when it is put in front of you like that what can you do . DR will have a good chance in league and will most likely make the playoffs where anything can happen. The one thing about OUR team is they seem to play a little better each week and that is what you want to see in a team. Call as I see how can you say stop depending on the special teams and defense. That defense is becoming the staple of this team and when you score that often on special teams that means a lot of work is going into that part of the game . 2 out of the 3 fazes of the game are being played at a very good level .I still can't believe people think those run backs are lucky and not part of a game plan. The offense is still coming around but still is very efficent at doing what is needed to win ball games. Also glad to hear randy and My Friend Sparta made up and he does know football, except for linebackers but he does know football. HA HA HA . As for Huskies, it is amazing what a couple of wins will do for you. Don't worry about AMAT because you have the Big Dogs of Cameron coming up this week and they are going to take all your bones away from you . You really need to worry about WC and not AMAT or what you think you could do to AMAT.

What are you talking about said... Maybe I'm not watching the same thing. The difference is that I am a realist and I see the game ojectively and not just what I want or hope happens. I would love nothing more than to see this team win it all, but in my opinion unless you fine tune this offense and that means by giving other kids chance or trying other kids to show their skills when you get the opportunity. What can it hurt? You can always bring in hags dynamic duo back in to save the day. Further more, I guess you didn't read what I said also that the score should have been 41-13 by half time. As for that first drive HELLO, I would hope that you better get at least one one against the defense they were facing.
I wonder what St Bon score would have been if they had played this game against DR? I can pretty much tell you that the score would been 41-0 by half time playing with less effort than they had to play us.. Our defense and special teams whether you want to look at it realistically, is why we are 5-0 not so much the offense. This includes every game we've played unfortunately. They are addequate at best and to win it all you better be more than just addequate. Believe me I bleed blue and gold butI just call them like. I see them.

South Hills fans, you need to wake up and smell the coffee. Lets look at your last 5 losses. DR pulled your panties down in the playoffs last tear. La Habra gave you body blow after body blow which you simply DID NOT answer after the 2nd qtr, beating you by double digits for the second year in a row. Tesoro (in a down year, 34-13 with a minute to go in that game) walked all over you on your home field. And West Cov doing you in last yr (up as your next opponent) and claiming the current Kings of Cameron title. You are the most over rated team in the SGV. Stop talking and start beating someone other than those San Antonio League hacks. Next year you get a rude awakeing with DR in your league. Good luck with that. Cocky, over confident, Clowns of Cameron is the title you wear. Like a tiara. You are a distant 5th in the rankings, a reach at that. Hanging with Amat? Nah, not if they show up to play. But we'll never know cause daddy won't schedule it.

Huskies in the house needs to bone up on the transitive property...one just can't compare your wins this year against Amat's to argue they’d win a head to head match up…if one hypothetically did, 9 out of 10 honest analysis would conclude that you’d lose.

I haven't seen La Habra play in person but from what I've read, it is doubtful that St. Bonaventure would “rout” them. It appears that Los Alamitos could be a contender for the CIF finals this year so what evidence exists that they aren’t as good as or better that St. Bonnies…and La Habra wasn’t routed by Los Alamitos. And La Habra bounced back to beat the Pac-5 San Clemente who by the scores of their games doesn’t appear to be half-bad this year either.

I had a kid that attended South Hills during 3 of the years that they won CIF so I saw most of the games during that period and it is pure ignorance to say that Bogan isn’t a good coach because he is very good. In fact, the SH games were more exciting to watch than the current version of CO because Bogan wasn’t shy to run a more wide-open offense (i.e. pass the ball on every down, pitch to running backs, etc) than the ultra-conservative run between the tackles approach incorporated by CO, which I agree with Joe Amat (how about that Joey?) would be their downfall if they played Amat this year. In fact, Rancho Cucamonga consistently played single coverage on CO’s very athletic WRs with no deep safety help yet CO still wouldn’t throw the ball on early downs despite the fact that they scored on a medium deep pass on the second play of their first possession. I really don’t think that CO has a deep post pattern pass in the play- book. Any CO fan’s out there agree or disagree?

So, while I think that CO would (will?) handle SH this year, perhaps SH would actually have a slim but better chance against Amat just because Bogan will put the ball in the air if the defense presents him with an opportunity. And if they connected on a few passes then just maybe…but I personally wouldn’t bet five cents on that maybe…my predicted score is Amat 41 and South Hills 13…oops that was the Amat vs. DR score. Anyway, same outcome because SH without Canada and DR are probably a close match up.

Aaron, you’re right that everyone in the Southeast playoffs may be chasing Santa Fe at year’s end. But anything can happen.

Good luck everyone as league play begins and the stakes get higher. And Aaron, we'll see you guys Friday night.

Hahaha...Man when ever bishop plays and quiets a person, there is someone else who always wants to step up and try to talk the big talk. lol... I love it, it never ends.
Hey, I think there is a good game on Friday at Damien. Ever since the years of Kenny Gibson getting hurt and with Damien winning with the last second for the league title, there seems to be passionate and hard fought football played between Chino Hills and Damien. This game will probably give the front-runner for the sierra league title this year.

Huskies, have seen you guys play and your athletes are average at best and the coaching is sub-par. Yes, that means you guys look sloppy when you play. No match!

Huskies, you have a serious condition called EDDD.......ENVY DILLUSIONAL DENIAL DISORDER.

SH can beat Amat....... right in your head and only in your head. You don't see any other Amat hater bantering on with you (not anymore) on your drug induced or illogical arguments. Amat is the best as it has proven with each week and you are bitter that SH will never achieve the level of success that Amat has achieved nor will you bums ever be in the same class as Amat. When you bums play a worthy opponent you bums choke, then, you bums run up the score against Northview as to make a statement to the SGV. What a joke. Northview is no DR. Tesoro and La Habra is no St. Bonnie and you still lose. We play the best and beat the best. End of story.

Now get in line to buy another ticket to an Amat game day dreamer!

St. Paul Slime we will burn down the PIT.

first I'd ask to name a quality team the Huskies have defeated the past two seasons? If Ayala is your signature win each season - you've got some 'splainin' to do.

Huskie,
Was at your against rosemead on friday and at Amat's game on sat.
There is no comparison between these two teams, the atmosphere, the team speed, nothing!
Remember back a few years, when the same was said about C O, then they met South Hills in the playoffs.
Yeah 35-0 remember!

I enjoy reading good banter and your rants just seem to me to be less fact and more fiction in my opinion because if we were to match athlete for athlete and coach to coach I still honestly believe we are a better football team overall.

Throwing statistics aside based on our tradition and the tradition of programs we've played this year in my opinion your schedule is not that much better. We have comparable opponents and in the end win because across the board you do not have as many pros to your cons.

I promise you if we want to base everything on history we play you better than West Covina does and at the very least have a chance to win the game in the 4th quarter not like Diamond Ranch where the game was over at halftime.

Do this for me. Draft coaches and players and I guarantee your choosing more of our guys over your guys! This alone proves we are a better overall program.

My score is 24-17 South Hills over Bishop Amat tonight, in years past, and in the future!

Carbon Corpy,

I know, but there has to be a "moral to the story," somewhere right ?

Hum...

Huskies in the house!

When you guys do, in fact, actually beat a good Pac-5 team then we can talk. You guys have problems beating La Habra let alone a team like Los Alamitos or Mater Dei. You can't say you would beat Bishop Amat but lose to St. Bonaventure either. South Hills has great football history but there is no way they could compete with St.Bonaventure and Long Beach Poly. Perhaps if you guys had beat La Habra AND Tesoro then maybe I would be more open to the possibility. But SH did not win those games and BA beat the #14 ranked team in the ENTIRE NATION. Like Jcaz said, your timing does nothing to help your argument.

And so what if you scrimmaged Corona Centennial! LMAO! You think that one scrimmage is going to prepare you for the level that BA has been playing at for the past 30 years? You are dreaming my boy.

Now look what you did! (formatting is everything)

OMG! Are you the original Anonymous ????

Same exact formatting technique....incredible

who knewwwwwwwwwww !!!!

Huskies in the house.

At first when I read you’re post, it seemed to me that it must have been yet another attempt by someone to get the Amat faithful all worked up again (ala Amnot, Anonopuss or the other guy).

However, after having read the last two entries that you’ve posted in here, I can actually see that perhaps you have a legitimate “take” or two, and perhaps those takes are worthy of a discussion, because by throwing in a statistic or two, it actually speaks volumes about the differences between you and the other idiots who come in here and just ramble on meaninglessly.

It’s good stuff you know.

However, while you do have some interesting points, I will nevertheless say to you that you are completely wrong.

Hey, are you surprised by that ?

Anyway, you know, Huskies fan, to tell you the truth, I don’t have a copy of the latest statistical entries of the LA Times, nor do I even the latest Maxpreps data, but what I do have is a very strong belief that this Amat football team is pretty darn good. Good enough to even beat South Hills.

The way I see it, this Amat football team could very well walk on water if it had too. In fact, I am starting to believe that it is the duty of each and every resident of the SGV, to even now, begin to consider sacrificing their first born sons in the name of Hagardy and the entire coaching staff over at Amat, regardless of the fact that Amat has only beaten one quality football team this year.

Look, on a more serious note, if you had come in here and made these points earlier this year, or even after that loss to Los Osos last year, then it may very well have been worth something. But, you’re argument at this point of the game is pretty much like me trying to set up business at the north pole, selling cups of cold water to Eskimos.

You’re timing is way off dude !!

Sure, you make some great points in here (you really really do), but in the end, it’s very much like an old Law school professor of mine who once said that if you had enough statistics, you could even indict a ham sandwich for murder.

Huskies fan, it‘s just the wrong time to be making theses arguments. I’m sorry...

Went to see what all the fuss was about last night at Ganesha and I came away with a whole new respect for BA. Not that I doubted their program, I knew it was top knotch. I just wanted to see if they were still the best all around team in our area, and better than the Chargers.
I went early so I could watch the pregame drills, etc. It's been a while since I've seen a high school look that sharp. My thoughts during warm-ups were that this team is at a different level than the teams I've been watching lately. I had this same thought while watching La Habra a few weeks ago when they put the hurt on SH.
DR came out looking tough enough, and fast enough, but were out classed by a mile. It wasn't long before BA had the game won.
Can teams in and around the SGV compete with BA? Yes, but they better play a near perfect game. I haven't seen that from SH, CO, WC, Glendora, Damien. We all look sloppy in comparison.
As much as I didn't appreciate CO being called over-rated Friday night, it was a pleasure to watch a team like BA play. They are a level above - at least that's what I took away from watching them play 1 game.
Fred, last night's BA team would beat CO this year, I'm afraid. I hate admitting it. Thanks for considering CO the best. I hope they can get to the level this season that BA is at. They have a ways to go, and tons of talent, but BA is already hitting their stride it appears.
Keep up the hard work Chargers!
Good luck Lancers!

Dude from South Hills...

Get real man. Dominguez, West Covina, and Damien would completely annihilate Northview and Rosemead. Ayala put up 28 on Los Altos...West Covina put up 47.

The reality is that St. Bonaventure would rout La Habra and decimate a rebuilding Tesoro. They schooled Long Beach Poly man! And if you knew Pac-5 football you'd KNOW that Long Beach Poly is never down! LOL!

I'll prove it...

Lakewood, the LA TIMES #4 team had to rally to beat Long Beach Poly 21-14. Lakewood has only lost to #1 Crenshaw (Calpreps State #4) by one point! LBP other losses were against Servite (Calpreps State #7). LBP also lost to undefeated Oceanside who have only lost like 8 games the past 6 years and have an umpteeth number of San Diego City Div 2 championships.

You know, I'm looking at the California State rankings on Calpreps.com and I see Bishop Amat listed at #12. It's funny because the LA Times also has BA ranked #12.

Hmmmm....I don't see any mention of South Hills on either webpage...I'll keep looking.

the only kids leaving Amat to play at South Hills are those who are asked to leave - not any that choose to leave.

Huskie

your 3 wins are against:

Ayala (who has beaten 0-5 South El Monte, 0-5 Alta Loma, that same Los Altos team, and Don Lugo (who has 3 wins vs teams that have totaled ONE win)

Northview who is 1-4

Rosemead, who is 1-4

and what's impressive there?

Hey Huskies forget about Amat Long Beach Poly would crush you guys even in there worst year!!!

Here's a look at Bishop Amat's "quality" opponents and schedule.

(1-3) Dominguez 28-14 (W): Their only win was versus Long Beach Jordan (1-4)

(3-3) West Covina 21-7 (W): Their wins were versus Diamond Bar (0-5), Los Altos

(2-3), and Glendora (3-2). None of these teams have beaten a formidable opponent this year.

(1-4) Damien 29-20 (W): Their only win is versus Claremont (4-1) with an embarrassing schedule on their resume. Seriously, they’ve played Arroyo, Bonita, Chino, and Ontario.

(1-5) Diamond Ranch 41-7 (W): Their only win is versus Muir who is (0-5).

And St. Bonaventure is legitimately 4-1 but their only quality win was versus Crespi 42-41 and don't argue Long Beach Poly because they beat you last year in the playoffs and are failing miserably this year.

We played Corona Centennial in our scrimmage this year and the game was better for us than probably any other team experience we could of had and is another example of why we would be prepared to beat you if we played you now.

How dare any of you criticize our staff too because last time I checked families were choosing to leave you and play for us not to mention we have more top tier athletes transferring to our school instead of yours. Case in point the Canada's could of gone to Bishop Amat but chose us instead.

I'm not even a Bishop Amat fan...and I want to know what kind of Kool-aid and dope this guy is smoking.

Honestly Bishop Amat plays like a team and I mean a team, it's a team effort. Not a lot of schools play like they do. And South Hills plays no one as we all know. When did you guys play Centennial, not this year.

In the what have you done for me lately South Hills hasn't done much. Bishop Amat is 5-0 against quality opponents overall...and if you look at the schedule it isn't exactly a cup cake walk.

Jcaz..said they should have pulled the starters out sooner and let the 2nd string some time to work on the plays what can it hurt? cause if all you have is jay and DJ and with out a passing threat on offense as much as it hurt me to say this, houston we have a problem. Also Sgv. for 3oyrs said..it was pretty simple and basic football, well I'm here to tell you. You better have something more than basic and simple against the league team we are going to be facing. There are receivers, running backs and a couple QBs that can be used and given an opportuniy. Remember I really don,t have a dawg in this fight, I just call them like I see them.

Last year's South Hills team lost to West Covina 14-10 and lost to Diamond Ranch 15-12.

Bishop Amat beat WC 42-6 and beat DR 17-6 (23-6 actually).

Amat doesn't have to TRY TO PROVE anything to anyone in this Valley. We are, have been, and will be the best this Valley has to offer. SH you guys are bums and not physical in the slightest bit. On top of that you are slow and not very well coached. So sit back and watch the show. Good luck in the San Antonio League because that won't be a cake walk for you!

call what i see...

How can you say they need to change the offense when they put up 41 points??? what do they need to change??? Did you not see Amat's first drive of the game? which was 75 yards on about 9 plays. they drove right down the field on Dranch.
Maybe your not watching the same things i am..

South Hills was blasted by La Habra and Tesoro. The Tesoro game was close in final score but statistically, they dominated the Huskies. Tesoro graduated everyone from last years team. They themselves got destroyed this year by the Pac-5 Fountain Valley 35-14. As good as La Habra looked to South Hill's fans, they lost to another Pac-5 team in Los Alamitos 28-13.

As young as this Bishop Amat team is, they proved that they have the ability to hang with Pac-5 opponents. St. Bonaventure has routed both St. John Bosco and Long Beach Poly. They also beat Crespi.

The conclusion is that South Hills did not passed any of their "tests" and Northview & Rosemead have only 1 win each this season. To pick South Hills over Bishop Amat would be absolutely ridiculous.

My only point is no one on your schedule this year except for St. Bonaventure is an impressive win and if you examine their season more closely their biggest win this year is versus Crespi by one point 42-41 and other than that one victory St. Bonaventure hasn’t played a team with a winning record except for you.

None of your opponents and no one on their schedules either has done anything legitimate versus anyone that I would consider a top tier challenger except St. Bonaventure and they may in fact not be as good as once advertised. Plus, be honest without your big plays combined with St. Bonaventure’s miscues they should of beat you in that game and beat you probably 9 times out of 10 unless both teams aren’t very good period that’s why the game was so close and won on special teams and turnovers. I give you that win you earned the victory but nothing you’ve done this year has proven to me that your better than us.

When you match athlete for athlete we have better talent and yes I will admit transfer talent that is going to our school instead of your the private school. This point alone argues that families want to play for us before you and we draw a better talent pool than you do right now in the Valley. Arguably, we could be called St. South Hills this year enter your league and be a better opponent versus Norte Dame than you will be guaranteed! You say you play the toughest schedule but if you truly go back to scheduling Pac-5 schools preseason you’re not undefeated right now but maybe so just 0-5 instead.

Seriously, you continue to try and argue that you’re better than Charter Oak and now us. What does that say about you but you have an inferiority complex because you haven’t gotten the recognition we deserve and have earned while you continue to be mediocre team every year. Your “big wins” are flukes and you haven’t done anything consistently over a long period of time for years. You are old fans living in the past from many years ago when you were back then a dominant force in the State but STOP looking backwards and confront and deal with the reality and the truth is no one takes you seriously anymore including me.

South Hills is the best team in the Valley. We’ll be the only C.I.F. Champion this year I promise you and I agree Bogan should and would play you but he CHOOSES his toughest opponents each new contract and on paper Corona Centennial, Tesoro, and La Habra sound like much tougher opponents than you. A State Champion, Pac-5 Runnerup, and a perennial C.I.F. Champion. What have you done lately?

FREDJ READ THIS AND TELL ME YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ME?

no randy vs fc cage match? that sucks

Didn't I say coaching and PROGRAM wins for us before we even talk about talent. I think I also said Johnson would do his thing, but Anderson would show up. 4 touchdowns is showing up! Even though he only had 70 or so yards, he got the tough yards when it counted. Was Johnson out of bounds when he took that pass for what looked like a td? I couldn't tell. DR did play physical ball though. We are too much for you guys though... Huskies, I see you didn't take your tourettes medicine, just blurtin s#$% out again... You guys could be Amat? LMAO... Better take the Ritalin OUT of the bottle and pop a few! LMAO

Here is my take on the Amat-DR game. Amat played an almost perfect game. Their offense was nothing fancy. Just basic football, better blocking and better tackling. I was more impressed with the defense. They seemed to know what was coming and were always in the right places at the right time. DR had guys close to breaking big plays but that last guy would always make the tackle.
So to Amat, stay focused on the big prize. I think football people in this area have alot of respect for the tradition of Amat football. To DR keep your heads up. I think you will be a play-off team, and there are alot of teams that don't want to see you in December.

SGV430 Ouuut!

To Huskies(Aka we have no class),

1. #1 is Darien Johnson, #4 is Jay Anderson, oh and someone you should look out for later #7 Jerry McClanahan.

2. South Hills may, and I say may be able to beat Charter Oak...but it won't be in the finals. If you get to the finals, look to get smacked by Santa Fe, if you want to know a team that is for real look no further I just gave you the class of the the Southeast Division.

Oh to the Amat guys/honks whatever you want to call yourselves, love the class the team has displayed in the past two games, I haven't seen that at this level before. Just goes to show the kind of school that you have over in La Puente. Also, now we know what the difference is in programs...I counted three charter busses as I was walking back to my car.

Day 1

Huskies in the house,

First of all Jay Anderson is #4 and #1 is Darien Johnson. They are two diffrent people. Second do you seriously beleive you can beat us or are you just having one of your dreams again? And how can you be serious when you say that you guys have faced better opponents than us? Did you not hear that we beat the #17 team in the nation last week? We also beat Olu and Crespi last year. Not to mention we held LB Poly to 21 points which is the least they scored in a game all last year and they ended up winning C.I.F. for DIVISION 1. By the way arent you guys in like division 7? Yea u probably will be C.I.F. champs bcuz u play no one. Wow u guys beat northview! congrats. U wouldnt even be allowed to show up in our league. It is one of the toughest in the state. so dont go bein all overconfident now cuz u beat northview. I know u know deep down u guys cant beat us and thats ok bcuz u guys can beat all the other mediocre schools in div. 7. Good luck with ur TOUGH schedule this year!

DIV. 1 Football (where real champions come from)

AMAT IS THE VALLEY!!

The only difference is that Layton has the cajones to schedule us...................
What are cajones?

Great Victory Men! Keep it up. People will always attack the one at the top(south hills guy), what a joke.
Amat is a class act program. Glad to witness and be part of it.
Go Amat!

Huskies, we do not compare you guys because you guys are not a worthy opponent. All you guys do is run your mouth like Dranchhh did. The only difference is that Layton has the cajones to schedule us, Bogan doesn't want anything to do with the Lancers.

We smacked DR in the mouth, and now Dranhhh comes in here and apologized like a man. Schedule us and then let's talk. Beat us 7 out 10 times? Now that was the most ignorant post I have ever heard of! You guys won't even play us ONCE!

I think 2 very good points have been made.

Jcaz said that the starters should have been pulled earlier. Putting in 2nd and 3rd stringers avoids injuries to your key players and secondly, builds DEPTH!

"call what i see" said in so many words that the offense doesn't really seem to be firing on all cylinders. I got the same impression. Don't get me wrong. They are good not great (yet), but it is the little things like the 3 (maybe 4... I can't recall) false starts that are going to catch up with them.

Huskies you need to put the bottle down. There is no way that you guys could hang with the Lancers. You guys couldn't even hang with a very mediocre Tesoro team.

You say you have played better competition, oh yeah what team did you play that was better then St. Bonnies?

Of course the fool, oops the Guru would say you guys could hang with the Lancers, he is wrong about almost everything and he is a South Hills homer. Both the Guru and Fred argue over who is going to the homecoming dance with Bogan.

After another vicory the amat fans come on here and display their ignorance, what a shame!! I can't believe jcaz was at the game and not reporting from London or Japan.

As I said this is going to bite us in the butt if hag doesn't do something about the offense. With no the shows from DR this score should have been 41 to 0 at the half. At this point we are ok at best thanks to DJ and Jay anderson. Again it takes special teams and the defense to create the opportunities to get the ball in scoring position. Thank God we were never in long yardage situation I just hope that our denfense or special don,t have any kind of let down next week because St Paull is no DR for sure. They have been a life time rival and that alone can can be.a major factor. Again just for the record I don,t have a kid in this contest and that's just for the big mouths that think I!m defending anyone. I just call them like I see them. ON BlUE!!!

Personally I may sound bias but after seeing Bishop Amat last night I think if we played them we could probably beat them at least 7 times out of 10. Bishop Amat is going to be lucky to get into the playoffs and get past the first round again this year.

Us though once we get the Canada brothers eligible we absolutely will be the best team in the Valley. I know everyone is going to attack me for this post but I wasn't very impressed with Bishop Amat and their athletic talent except for #1 Anderson.

Our schedule without a doubt we saw much better teams than Bishop Amat so my thought is seriously head to head we win based on competition and schedule.

The fact is we are going to be C.I.F. Champions. No one in our division can survive our talent and coaching and probably we would win Bishop Amat's league and thus go further than you in the playoffs too. You may hate the guy but ask the Scouting Guru himself. He's seen enough teams and talent that I know for sure would say "off the record" he would agree we would outclass Bishop Amat.

So I don't know why there's so much talk about Bishop Amat versus Charter Oak when the comparison should really be between us two instead.

Good luck Bishop Amat because you'll need some luck going into your league and division. You can wait and congratulate us at the end of the season. No hard feelings!

Look DR, you got your butts kicked! All the talk over this blog has been disgusting. Maybe you should learn to win games, then talk.

How long since you guys won your own league? Your fans/bloggers have to be the worst on the gray space.

Enough Said

DRANCH,

Thank you for your respectful words. That you would even suggest sending your child to Amat is the greatest kudos our program could receive.

Coach Hag, congratulations on your 100th win and for those who are still critical... silly.

Now before you say many mean and nasty things... I'm an Amat mom without a player in the game. I'm just happy to see Amat winning and the boys enjoying the game on both sidelines.

Let them play football, I say!

Random thoughts

Last nights game seemed to be almost a home game for the Lancers in that there were more Amat fans at that stadium than there were Panther fans.

Darien Johnsons return for a touch down so early in the game must have just been one of those moments when an opposing coach thinks to himself that maybe he should have gone into selling cars instead of football.

Man it was cold out there last night wasn’t it ? The weather is really starting to change early this year and I was wondering if the cold doesn’t create more injuries for the players because a couple of players got a few dings last night including Darien Johnson and Davis Cazares.

Anyway, I think that maybe Hags should have taken out the first string way earlier in that game than when he did. The game was basically over before the second half kick off. It would have been nice to have let Rio get in a few reps at Quarterback. Opportunities like that may not come up very often this season and as I mentioned earlier, injuries can happen at any time, and you really don’t want to have you re starters to go down when you’re up big.

Case in point, there was a play early in the fourth quarter when Jerry Mac, just got hammered by a defensive lineman. I thought for sure he was going to come up hurting but luckily he came up ok.

In the end, I suppose that you can never really tell how you’re opponent is going to perform when being down big, but was it just me or did anyone else kind of get the feeling that Hags wanted to score a few more points there ? I mean he was up 41 to 7 and we still had the first string in there with 5 minutes to go.

Also, did anyone happen to notice that Loyola got smacked big time by Valencia last night ?

Things are starting to look very good in Lancer land right about now.

Maybe even an undefeated season this year ? Could it happen ?

Stay tuned...

Fred,
That was Hag's 100th WIN!!! Time to do a big story!

ON BLUE!!!

Seeing that I am not a Lancer and running the risk of being told what to do with my opinion I would oly ak that teh DR/Amat posts stay as first rate classy as both Head Coaches.

I said this a few weeks ago...Anonymous was only trung to goad Lancers into a heated exchange in hopes of doing damage to the DR program coached by Roddy Layton.

I'm sure the temptation is to give DR a hard time and to dance on a beaten opponent but Hags showed everyone the way by being above it all.

Why would any Lancer stoop to the level of a self hater and back stabbing coward? The coaches from both teams respect each other...why can't the fans.

Th taco truck and Miss Kitty put downs the talk of an ignorant fool...is there erally a need to respond to teh DR community for what was teh work of "one"? Seriously... is anyone still believing Anonymous was being forthright and sincere...or representative of Caoch Layton and his staff?

Blog Like Champions Today... Bishop Amat is for real at 12-4 in the Hagert Era...next up St. Paul...epic!

LMG,
Despite all his foolish post of the past Dranchhh came on here and congratulated and gave his respect to Amat, then you pompassly come in here and say that D Ranch will never be in Amats class because of people like him! Now look at your post and look at his and tell me which post has more class.

Randy,
Good to see that you and Frank C. Ironed things out, because it seemed to get a little heated between you two at times. I met Frank at a practice and ran into him at a couple highschool games and enjoyed talking with him, he's a good guy and I also got the impression that he knows football when I met him. I'd bet that most of us bloggers would get along just fine if we met in person. Frank if you read this and you ever come to check out a WC game let me know ahead of time so you could sit with us.

Hey Fred are you still taking CO now or do you want more proof. Why didn't you take dr tonight . You are a complete fool when it comes to football in the SGV . Let be said tonight Amat is the class of the valley snd all the rest are just fooling themselves if they think they can play with them .Maybe Gano was right in hanging so much on thr fact that they hung with them as log as they did . At least they did not look like the chumps that dr did tonight . Hey anonypuss where is your dumb ass now , sucking grease off the taco truck in the poarking lot of Miss Kitty's waiting for your wife's shift to end sucker.

RESPECT TO THE DIAMOND RANCH PANTHERS!!!!

FOR HAVING THE STEEL TO FACE THE BEST OF THE BEST YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT!!!

Ya'll are not afraid of anyone...unlike everyone else in the San Gabriel Valley.

Respect to you and your program!!!!

Dranchh, Amat ALWAYS shows respect and dignity for ourselves and our opponents. I've read your previous posts and accuasations of us cheating, your words of false praise mean nothing to us.

Because of people like you, DR will never be in Amats' class. Good luck on the rest of your season.

I am here buddy....

You guys played great tonight and your did not disappoint. They played mistake free, disciplined football tonight. I NOW respect your program not bc of the win but because of something else. You whole sideline turned around while our Alma mater was sung. The players were quiet, the buckets were off and so were the coaches hats. That said alot about what you guys are teaching your kids at BA. I really wish I had a kid to send there but it is what it is. Your kids are "Stand up kids" and again I bow out gracefully. Good luck in ur season BA...

I went to the game tonight also and I have to agree with Aaron. DR has no depth at all. It was sort of shocking to see how few ball players they had on the side line. I think the DR kids played as well as could be expected.

This is only the second Amat away game that I have attended and I must say , Amat fans travel extremely well. The entire visitor side was full. There were Amat fans standing along the fence line and some on the home side.

I spent the 2nd half with Frank on the DR sideline. The dude knows football. He was dead on with almost everything he said. I was impressed. He is NOT however, the know it all prick that sometimes, one might think he is, based on his "endless" posts here (i know I became guilty of that to a certain degree). I'M TELLING YOU, HE KNOWS FOOTBALL. We didnt agree on everything. But he is much easier to take in person, while he breaks down the x's and o's. I am glad we patched that up, and I sit here, damn near tending a written apology to you Frank, not afraid to say I misjudged you. This blog and more than just a few of us, warps sh*t all around. Fred drops the bait. We take it. And just friggin run with it while the "hits" just keep on coming for the sgvn. In a way it works for everyone doesnt it? Bottom line. Theres more to FC than you see in his posts. We shoulda had a pizza and beer get together years ago,....just another damned he was right about! And for the record, i gotta tell ya, that i was diggin every second of DR's misery. What true DB fan wouldnt? :) Good luck against CO....DR's gonna go 4-6 and probably make the playoffs again. Crazy. It sures does seems like its the same old-same old over there. The DR fans know exactly what i'm talking about. I'll see you out there......

He who laughs last, laughs louder.........DRanchhh Anonymous DR where are you? You forgot to show up tonight. Our away crowd out numbered your home crowd 4 to 1. What was that all about? The only ones that showed up at the game were your cheerleaders, unfortunately, they had no one to cheer for.

what can i say?
amat destroyed tonight.
next on the hitlist: the slime.

SGV Football,

Man our league is weak, next week between Bonita and Charter Oak could decide league...but that's only if Bonita plays their best and mistake free can it be close...because the offense continues to have issues.

Miramonte this season=Charter Oak and whoever can scrap wins over the bottom two...the next two spots for the playoffs could go to anyone because everyone is bad.

YES!!!! IT'S TIME FOR THE SLIME'S DESTRUCTION!!!!

YOU ST. PAUL SCUM ARE GONNA GET SMACKED UPSIDE DA HEAD!!!!

ya'll stink...

WOW!!! It doesn't look like we will be seeing DR in the D7 finals this year.

Lancers kicked Dranchh and anonupussy in their teeth tonight. The game was over in the first quarter and it was soooooo boring thank god the goofy anouncer provided comic relief.

DR brought a knife to a gunfight. The Dawgs pounded on the pussycats tonight. My one toothed Grandmother could have scored on that DR defense tonight. Ray Charles could have thrown over 300 yards on that defense. Obama won the Noble Peace Prize. Go figure!

Moreover, thank God we won't hear from those asinine pendejos Dranchh and anonupussy for a long time. All I can say to Anonupuss is BOHICA, BEND OVER HERE IT COMES AGAIN. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

NOW Let's beat the Slime next week!

I went to the game. Ouch that's all I have to say, but Diamond Ranch doesn't have much depth at all. I was wanting to see a beating, however I was hoping it would be somewhat competitive...guess not. It could have been worse, but it was good to see the second teamers on offense in the fourth...and they probably could have scored.

That was not a game... That was a complete mismatch. Glendora, Chino Hills, and Muir have to be in awe of BA considering they all beat DR by a combined score of 20 points. BA is in another class of its own.

Just got back from the game and my prediction was pretty close. I new it wasn't going to be close. Lets see what Dranch and annanopus have to say.

im from garey high and i hope d ranch loses cause they talk a lot of mess

GOOD LUCK LANCERS!!!!

MAKE US PROUD ONCE AGAIN!!!!

AMAT WILL SHINE!!!!

I am a Lancer from last year and so far the commitment we made to each other is still being held up to this year... One game at a time fellas, give them south hills and charter choke so the trash talking that they can compete with us can end. please stop the madness!!!!!

Grow up for your infomation I haven't had any kid in this school for 15 yrs. I just have interest and I call them like I see them. There were politics then and there is politics now. Incidently my two sons were both starters. It's not the kid's fault either. So I suggest that the next time you open your fat mouth, know what your talking about. For all I know your probaby one of the politicians I'm refering too.

Rancho Dimona

Seeing as I went to Amat's game last week...I'm going again this week since it's on a Saturday and all. I want to see what they can do here. Also and to watch Pomona Ranch to see if the Miramonte is as shallow/weak as it appears to be this season.

Call What I See...If little Johnny is not playing dont blame Haggs, he is probably not as good as you think he is. By the way who is your kid?

I just hope that the dynamic duo that hag believes in so much start producing and quit depending so much on the special teams and defense to keep saving the game week after week. Though every one knows it's a team effort but at some point you have to show up and contribute, that is,if your as good as hag seems to. think. In any case Good Luck Lancer and what ever happens give hell. GO LANCERS!!

Diamond Ranch lost the last game with no time on the clock and not as good as in the past. Bishop Amat wins in OT after being a 24 point underdog.Will Bishop have a big letdown after a big win. Could this mean UPSET ?????? News at 11..

Here you go San Gabriel Valley, the best team in the valley, time to come and see the truth!

ON BLUE!!!
