Sounds a lot like jealousy. DLS earned their respect and accolades by what they did on the field, not what they said on message boards.I’ve got a pet peeve with those who resent the achievements of others and the respect that it earns from others.Heres a novel concept;BEAT THEM.On the field. In a game.I’ve noticed it’s always the teams who haven’t beaten DLS that cry the loudest.The teams that have beaten DLS don’t take shots at DLS.Should Folsom win they will deserve all the credit they seem to resent not getting.I respect that Folsom is going all out to become number 1 in NorCal.This game is one they have been looking towards for a few years. Hope that no matter the outcome both sides will be gracious in victory or defeat.
You’re barking up the wrong tree bulldog.Im a SoCal guy and I couldn’t care any less if Folsom wins or not I just want to watch a good game.and don’t blame me for assuming every Folsom poster is one guy blame Cashg61deloroparentkingera18 or whatever new name he has now for people disliking Folsom fan
I think your constant posts and responses in regards to Folsom, prove you care.
Makes it even more bizarre that you are a supposed SoCal guy trolling NorCal forums and teams.
If you worked as hard becoming knowledgeable about teams in your state as you do with being a weirdo you wouldn’t be everyone’s piñata
People here really seem to think that they can debate their way to a victory.
Relax, the game is early in the season. We will know soon enough.

A little more than 2 weeks! A kid on Christmas!
im ready . cant get here fast enough .
How in the world is Clayton Valley not on this list? They would ROLL every team on the list with the exception of the top 3... DLS would beat them as they have shown. I think they give Folsom and Pitt a game (but likely lose)... but they are beating every team on this list from #4-#20
They're just so much more physical than everyone outside the top couple and last year's team was almost all Juniors

I still remember when they came to Folsom in 2015 with all this hype, playing one of Folsoms worst teams in the last 5 or 6 years, refusing to punt, not throwing a pass, and virtually blowing a game they could have won. It was epic.
As I remember CVC lost their best player (McKenzie? the DLS DL transfer) on the first or second play.
First play of the game. Had to be helped off the field.
I admit I didn't know much about CVC prior to this game. When I saw them going for it on 4th and 12 in their own territory, running dive plays, I was bewildered. I couldn't believe it. I mean, there are some times we elect to go for it on 4th and long......but we usuually throw the ball lol.
Still one of the weirdest games I've ever seen.
It's called underperforming last year with the talent they had. MA has had some pretty good teams with talent and this upcoming season they lose their starting QB, but definitely have some talent. I will probably go to the Palma v Menlo Atherton game. Palma offense should be very good this year (they should b competitive for league title but league will be pretty even with maybe 4 teams having a shot to win it....speed at skills (including a D1` prospect that is a junior) a god QB and return enough on line to be pretty good. defense will be a question mark because they have lots of underclass having to step up. Overall line will be a little undersized so may be tough matchup with MA, but Palma should be better than last season and they have skill players for the next two seasons and good line size coming up as underclass.
NorCalSportsFan is Money $$ when it comes to Palma and their opponents within the CCS so pay attention to his posts. NorCal is correct with his assessment of MA in regards to talent versus their results the last couple seasons & until that trend changes then MA just does not deserve being in NorCal's Top 20 [and BTW I am a supporter of MA within the CCS].
In response to CVC [Clayton Valley Charter] I'd already addressed their ranking & they will be included once they surpass their projected expectations - can;t be included over other teams based upon past performance, as simple as that may sound....[although DLS may certainly be the exception to that rule based upon longstanding supremacy in NorCal by the Green Machine].

I feel somewhat silly pointing out what should be obvious, but in this day and age it's far to easy to take the actions of a few outliers and label them as all (unfortunately we see it every night on the news). The majority of people now labeled as "typical" DLS and Folsom fans, I blocked long ago (yup, BOTH sides) and only see their gibberish when I feel lost in the conversation and turn on the "show ignored" long enough to catch a peek of the stupidity.
Based on my own personal experiences and observations, the posters here don't represent typical "DLS" or "Folsom" fans, players or coaches. I don't claim to know or represent all either BUT I can tell you that they have a lot more in common than they do differences.
Among those shared traits are a great respect and admiration for the players and coaches throughout the state that actually take the field on Friday nights and spend countless hours in preparation to represent their families, schools, teams and communities.
In this instance, between Folsom and DLS, both have had tremendous success and therefore have every reason to be proud. In regards to the upcoming match-up, I think anyone worth their salt knows that "To be the champ, you gotta beat the champ" and Folsom has that opportunity....again.
Hats off to all involved in making this game come to fruition. Regardless of the outcome, I believe the majority of the fans look forward to seeing the results of "their" teams hard work, are hoping for a great game, and will wish their opponent future success in the weeks that follow.
....you may now return to the nonsense and I will return to resisting the temptation to hit "show ignored" for a few more months.

St Francis should have a very good QB
SF's Jack Perry, Sr, QB/SS, 6-1, 195, converting from WR to QB this year I have heard was an underclass QB. He has a nice spin and arm and is athletic. It also seems Ryan Daly, Jr., QB, CB, 6-5, 210, transferred in from Sacred Heart Cathedral. Daly seems like he is more drop back type and will be surprised if he wins comp as a junior. St Francis will have excellent WRs and the threat of Page at RB, and stifling defense. Serra QB could be the difference, but St Francis could be better than last season when all is done. It will be a fun game to watch when they meet as well as the matchups with the socal teams early in the season.
Central section looks really down. Maybe Central will be pretty good but other than that the TRAC teams look down as well as the Bakersfield teams. Maybe Central is where you have them. Mitty may be a top 20 - lots of talent and a star dual threat at QB. Liberty seems like it is more of a 10-20 type team. They had trouble scoring on some teams even with the offensive talent. I would put many of the SFL and WCAL teams ahead of them and Jesuit probably 4-6.
Norcal - very good knowledge on SF's Jack Perry and sounds like the QB who will lead SF this season. Not much separated these 2 teams last season with Serra pulling out a victory in regular season and Serra winning a nail biter in CCS playoffs in a game which could have gone either way. Both teams won state titles with Serra winning big over the better of the 2 opponents between the 2 teams.
Both of these teams return a solid core of players from last season with what looks like Serra having the edge on offense and possibly SF having an edge on D [though that remains to be seen]. I will analyze both upcoming to see what we can expect. At this point though it looks like the 2 teams could be #1 & #2 in CCS and both among the Top 10 in NorCal if not higher...
Rmbr, SF returns arguably the best RB in the league in Darrell Page. If the SF line controls the LOS, it will present problems for everyone. Also, the Lancers return WRs Wilmer and Evans. QB will be key - where Serra has the advantage with returning QB, Bottari.
Looking forward to your league preview. When can we expect your first team analysis?

Thanks jordan - looking to kick off the thread by this weekend..
You are right, i generalized too much on that...i should have said many dls posters and fans do...as im sure many folsom fans do but we also want credit we deserve and nt be often hated on by many of people
