You get mad for "bashing DLS" and then call Folsom "classless?"
The pot is calling the kettle back
no your posts are full of misinformation, biases and flat out lies and are jealousy based
it is the OPINION of many that Folsom (Jake Browning 10 TD passes his first game, running up the score in a state bowl game) is the definition of classless
Someone is maddddddddd lol
I mean, Granite Bay is nice, but don't get any ideas
Kind of like evading your local public school for the "far away" private school?
Kind of like evading your local public school for the "far away" private school?
so you are jealous and biased against private schools?
you have a problem with this?
may need to move to a communist country and have the educational options there (ONE)
or is this again just the deep rooted clinically jealous DLS thing again?
Why don't you bash Mitty or Bellarmine or St. Francis?
Oh they don't OWN the STATE (and the puny low life Sac-SJ section) like DLS does?
You can't even use capital letters or correct grammar when you are mad...
Looks like someone didn't pay attention in private school English class
As I said before, just don't get any ideas about coming up this way after seeing beautiful Granite Bay
Oh yes, the magical OOS opponent. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say you meant to state a national top 20 OOS opponent.
Better SoCal teams? Who would that be besides SJB or CC? OLu is ranked top 20 in CA and they would have a 2 TD lead at the half? This year DLS, SJB and CC are another level vs the rest of CA. No other program is on their tier.
The fact the halftime score was 16-0 was a testament to how good the DLS D played. The Spartans first team D has yielded 2 TD 's in their last 4 games. The DLS D line is killing people. GB is actually a well coached team with some talent. They will give every team in the SJS a damn good game and defeat a high percentage of them.
The frustration with DLS TO's is understandable, but lets not over state the big picture.
Bulldog stadium is amazing. One thing people don't understand is how good they lighting is there. They have 3 very high stands on each side with spotlights shining down. No dark spots on that field. Its basically a juco facility if not better.
DLS D is incredible. Agreed.

G61, DLS had their second string in during the 4th, not their 1st string as you claim. Please be honest.
GB scored 14 on Folsom? Folsom D is not that impressive.
Folsom scored only 27 on GB? Again, not that impressive. The DLS offensive squad, which was offensive all night with his numerous mistakes, did better than that.
DLS certainly would beat Folsom this year, which would be what, in the last 4 years? 4 in a row?

Last year DLS would have lost FOR SURE
This year would be a VERY good game.
And yes, we are very impressive

G61: Folsom would have beat DLS last year.
All state rankings from last year: DLS ahead of Folsom.
I appreciate that you have an opinion. And good for you to have the confidence in yourself to share it.
Well we see how much state and national rankings actually mean right?
DLS was ranked NUMBER ONE in the nation at the start of this season correct? They proceeded to be beaten on national television by a mid tier level Texas team.
Games decides winners...not rankings

You have a problem with honesty and truth.
How can you call a Top 5 Texas team "mid tier level"?
G61 logic is interesting, to be kind.
I hate to give GB credit in a 37-0 loss, but I was actually surprised because I thought it would be down 35-0 by the end of the 1st quarter.
Had they been able to get the ball out of their end zone and off their goal line with (I believe) around 1:30 to go in the 1st half, they could have went to the locker room down only 7-0. Some poor play calling in that situation. That game was 7-0 for most the 1st half. DLS got that safety late then followed it up with a quick TD. Even 16-0 was remarkable for GB considering.
Also, as great as the DLS defense was, GB should have scored on their first possession and led 7-0. The QB rolled out to his left and had a receiver open at the goal line for an easy score but didn't see him. Instead, he threw to the covered receiver in the back of the endzone -- who caught it -- and was ruled out of bounds. They had the opportunity, but didn't capture it when it was presented.
All in all, they played DLS closer than Servite did and surrendered fewer points than both Servite and Serra. I didn't see that coming.

Then your "quite a few peeps" should be impressed with Granite Bay.
The Concord folk should be super duper impressed by it
G1, You knock on Concord like it is a lower class of people and their real estate is crud. I had to look it up. This is what i found looking at zillow and about 5 minutes of research on the town.
Concord is a medium size city. In its surrounding areas there is Concord, Martinez, Walnut Creek, and Clayton. Concord looks to be the central location as it is the only one of these towns with an airport. By the pricing of the houses Walnut creek is the most expensive, clayton, concord, then Martinez last.
Granite Bay is a very small town. Granite bay and surrounding cities, in order of house pricing, is Granite Bay, Folsom, Citrus Heights, and Loomis.
It would be fair to compare an apple to apple. It makes sense since De La Salle is literally on the border of Walnut Creek. and Walnut Creek/Granite bay are on the same part of their area's totem pole.
But lets not be fair. Lets compare home prices in Concord vs home prices in Granite Bay, straight up.
1 million buys you
in granite bay, 5/4 4123 sq ft on a 1 acre lot.
in concord, 4/3 3021 sq ft on a 1 acre lot.
750,000
granite bay 4 bds 3 ba 3,769 sqft 0.73 ac lot
concord 4 bds 3 ba 3,592 sqft 9,570 sqft lot
500,000
Granite Bay 5 bds 3 ba 2,809 sqft 9,997 sqft lot
Concord 4 bds 2 ba 1,942 sqft 9,583 sqft lot Built 1952
Keep in mind. Concord is the 3rd cheapest of the bordering cities. Granite bay is the most expensive place to live in the bordering area.
Those prices clearly show that you can buy A LOT more house for your money in the best area of Granite Bay than you can in the bottom 2 of the east bay, concord.
If Granite Bay was truly a better place to live, wouldn't you think a house in Granite Bay would cost MORE than that same house in Concord?
Fact is, it costs more to live in Concord, one of the cheapest areas in nearby than it does to live in Granite Bay, the most expensive.
I think that speaks Volumes. Now stop talking about how great Granite Bay is and go back to talking about football.
Evening rant, done.
One thing you forgot to post...
Go look at the AVERAGE MEDIAN FAMILY INCOME for the two cities. You will see a very different tale
Yes, Concord/Walnut Creek costs more to live. It is in the BAY AREA, within commuting distance to San Francisco and Oakland, the major employment hubs. EVERYTHING is more expensive there. It doesn't mean that the people that live there make more money or are better than those that live in cheaper areas. The tale is quite the opposite.
People in Granite Bay make SIGNIFICANTLY more money than people in the area you speak about. These are per income statistics, not real estate figures. They also pay less to live. Their schools are nicer. These are facts, just as the ones you put up from Zillow.
So, tell me...which one is better?
If anyone has spent time in Granite Bay/Loomis/Folsom/El Dorado Hills and would say that Concord is a better place to live, I would ask them to have their head examined.
It is NOT EVEN CLOSE when you compare apples to apples. Sure, the Bay Area locations are more expensive. But, what do you get for that price?
We get everything here. Beauty. Lakes, Rivers, Hiking trails, Tahoe, Beauty, Beauty...
In Concord/Walnut Creek you get: traffic, traffic, congestion, small homes....
I mean, c'mon let's be real here

Gades 10, it's been awhile. For G6 and others, he's a DLS alum and is not as big a rah-rah as are the dads over on Delphi, although prick him and it oozes a little green. He's one of the few (non-dads), may be the only one here, who's not so much as a homer in that he's willing to critique Sparta when deserved, probably due to his skin toughening up with the Vandal scandal while on staff there in college. All this other drivel is white noise. As Radnich would say on 680, "Nobody cares!"
It was only right that after going to DLS, the colleges I went to and worked at would be not be very good at football.
There are teams that can attack this DLS defense. GB is certainly not one of them, this GB offense is not good. The last time DLS turned the ball over that much against teams that could do this, were STA and DBP. And we know how those games turned out, despite DLS having pretty good defenses those years. I'm not sold on this DLS defense despite the last 3 games, because the first two games of the year showed some cracks there. Maybe they have it sorted out, maybe not.
Renegades10, good info. Although GB doesn't have a good offense, Folsom does. What is your prediction in that match up? Unbiased of course
Agree with much of this post.
I thought your first post was too broad. In this post it seems we agree that the list of teams that would severely make DLS pay for first half TO's is very small. Only 2 teams in CA on that list this year.
Although the 2009 and 2011 DLS defenses were likely better than 2015- the 2015 offense is likely better than those years. 2009 vs DBP and the game vs STA would have been a dog fight like the 2008 game vs DBP with the DLS 2015 offense. I believe the 2015 offense would have overcome any early TO's and would have scored.This years O is explosive.
Would be interested to know what you mean by "sold". The 2015 defense has a dominate front four and a very good secondary. The LB's are improving but are the Achilles heel. If the D improves over the next weeks as they have in the last few, they will be of Open Game championship level.
