Gotta two Cali and it was great to see the Jersey boys’ epic meltdown. 👍 That was classic NJ started throwing rule books and posting slow motion video 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was definitely a PrepG classic...or was it still NHFB then? Doesn’t mater, it was gold. You knew when they started posting the slow mo shit, they’d lost it.

Last year, Villa Park beat Servite and only lost to MV by 15. La Habra only lost by 14. Regardless of your attempts to disparage, both games are sound. LMAO None of those teams won a lower division title last year. Regardless of your attempts to overhype teams based on how they performed vs. Trinity League "Power," Servite. Re-read the part where I said it wasn't a weak non-league run. It just isn't a schedule worthy of a team that usually is a D1 semifinalist. For example, if South Coast League rival, El Toro had this non-league slate, it would be a murderer's row. ET played in the D3 semifinal in 2017. It was its best year since 2011. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody said MV was ducking anyone. I simply stated that MV, unintentional or not (and I believe you when you say it was unintentional) played DLS when DLS had a very limited amount of jimmies and Joes...relatively speaking. I too believe that DLS’s system and philosophy is the foundation of why they’re a top notch program. But we all know it’s nice to have D1 and NFL caliber talent on the field to...enhance...the system. 03 to ‘04 was night and day for DLS. That was year that the chickens came home to roost. A very dark day indeed😔 That DLS team was possibly the worst team they have had since 80's. I watched the Palma game on the sidelines and man they looked horrible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigrobstercraws Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 Villa Park stepping up to play a tough non-league again with both MD and Servite, along with St. Mission Viejo and a team it might see in again the playoffs in El Toro. Only one easy game vs. Trabuco Hills, who isn't a bad team. They're a tweener. They beat the bad squads and lose to all the good teams. VP's frosh and jv teams were pretty good last year. I think they both beat MV and barely lost to Servite finishing 9-1 at both levels. Too bad they don't have a Future Farmers program. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest the last 2 years were actually more entertaining and the student/community support went way up due to the fact wins were not a forgone conclusion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff! I’m just being a selfish (DLS)HSFB homer that wants Streak-level teams every year. It’s easy to lose perspective that these are high school kids and high school administrators trying to do what they feel is the right thing.

Good take, but don't get me wrong I am right there with you the streak years were insane! It's crazy though even with the pivot by the powers that be on admissions, 05-06 brought home a lot of NCS and State championship banners including football, baseball, basketball, soccer, wrestling swimming (not 100% positive), golf and Basketball won state as well. LOL but if you saw the 4 yearbooks from those years 02'-06' you could definitely see why the football team may have declined so drastically. The guys in the streak years looked like grown ass men, the latter years not so much. We all need to get together before the STA game next season! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be a good game. People are sleeping on DLS this year with all of the graduations. But I’m of the opinion, other than the LBs, the Spartans will be strong pretty much everywhere. That’s my opinion at least. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spartans were actually inches from losing that game when they had a fumble in their own backfield. The Palma safety (who, I think was also their QB) scooped it up and was only brought down by a shoestring tackle to prevent a long return for a score. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MV was not ducking anyone. To the contrary MV was seeking to play the current reigning National Champs which had an intact 151 game win streak. MV had no way of knowing that DLS would lose to Bellvue in the opener. For years DLS guys said they won due to the "system" not the talent. Additionally, they had scheduled (and clobbered) both of the SS D-I finalists that season in Los Al and LB Poly. After those games, though, everyone expected them to do the same against DLS. 17-14 certainly sounds like the system kicked in when the talent-level couldn't. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue that 2004 St. Mission Viejo team was the best in OC history prior to the Super Team era. I think they had 3 guys make the League in Dirty Sanchez, Jed Collins and Nick Reid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
