NEXT SEASON

[foghorn]

I would argue that the loss of Mock for a lot of last year was a bigger blow to the Lions than most people realize.

[southpaw]

He was the most explosive player we had on either side of the ball.

[Lefteyelouie]

Sounds good for CR next season as well then. Although I think Southpaw will agree that anything worse than 7-2 for the lions is unexceptable with the talent they usually have and the conference they play in.

[southpaw]

Agree, but some teams will be improved next year. Bellwood will be the class of the conference on paper. Penns Valley will also be much improved.

[Lefteyelouie]

Bellwood is a big game for you. I was there this year and they stole one from the lions. Could be quite a game this year as well.

[BADEVILS]

Stole ? please explane to me how bellwood stole one from you. I believe we stopped you Your running back who was having a field day with all of the other teams only managed 49 yards on 17 carries

[Lefteyelouie]

BA didn't steal anything from me. I don't attend CR. I just meant that some close calls went your way. Not that they were bad calls. CR just didn't catch any breaks.

[southpaw]

No, Ridge just got beat by Bellwood.

[foghorn]

The only thing Bellwood stole that night was the Lion confidence for the rest of the year.

[CRLionDawg]

That put some perspective on things Foghorn. What could have been differently to have created a different reaction to that loss? It always interests me how different teams respond to big losses. Makes you wonder why. IS it the players, the coaches, the underlying self confidence? Thoughts.
