SHC - MITTY
- Thread starter Irish_Cheers
- Start date
38-27 Mitty. Turnovers were the difference. Irish really moved the ball. Passing even... Wish they were this healthy all year. We had a lead into the third quarter.
Your Irish despite themselves had a lead with 10 min left in the 4th. All teams have injuries. In all honesty, being healthy would not have made any difference. Maybe one league game; two a stretch. Put this season to bed.
So do the football players allegedly trying to transfer play a winter or spring sport as well? Or will they be transferring out after the Winter Semester? I know administrators from both schools asked to ease up on the posts, but inquiring minds want to know. Was the talk really serious enough to get both administrators to call each other and ease the tension of their respective parents or was it all overblown. I would think these administrators have more important things to do then to respond to allegations made on a message board lol. Hmmmm. Guess we'll see
No talk that I am aware of at SHC. Can't believe anything Riordan Gael says.
Irish battled tonight. They weren't at full strength with five key players out.

You mis-read that. I'm saying they were healthy. I didn't know about the players out. Defense could have been better but the offense has some good big plays.
Also, from watching the game, not turning the ball over would have won the day for the Irish. They were easily better than the Catboxers at SI and with a little luck would have beaten the Lancers. If they had, at least Fool-bo would have been silenced.

I was waiting for the other regular SHC excuse of "five injured players out". ROFL
0 Wins this season for the Irish" one can not believe that statement? I can not believe that players are satisfied or parents excited?
Ground hog day is telling of not coming out because of the snowy weather. Next year St. Patrick's day may be a carbon copy of the Exodus of USF...just saying?
Here you go twisting words again. Did not say "five injured" players out. Not making any excuse -only replying to IC saying they were healthy and replying that five key players did not play in the game.
But we have all learned you are full of hot air and get your pants all wet over SHC. Get a life dude.

Do you honestly think people will just transfer out just because of football? You should be more concerned with Riordan players quitting their team in droves.

Even people who know you well call you a liar. Why don't you heed their warnings? When does St. Mary's probation get over?
I am not encouraging transferring, I have actually never done that..God forbid one would leave a school, because they want their child/young man to be successful in something they are passionate about. Sometimes people just want a better community to encourage their children.
Mass exodus occur because players are frustrated, by your assessment...no one is frustrated and very happy....
I am confused, are you staying that their is frustration at SHC?? Please clarify? Please help us all understand?
Or you could come out and watch a great match tomorrow at CCSF with other San Franciscan to cheer a program that made hard decisions for student/athletes...
We Are One...We R Riordan

You'll have to wait until next year's roster. I didn't see any Riordan soccer players transfer to SHC because they were tired of losing 18 games a year... for the past 15 years or so.
You want "mass exodus"? Try the dozen or so players who quit Riordan's 0-9, 55ppg average given-up, 3 ppg scoring, frosh team. Not to mention Riordan's dead last place 1-9 JV team whose only victory was against a team that gave up 345 points on the year.
Can't wait to see you and Fool-bo eat crow.

With all due respect for those who follow the "beautiful game" Internationally, no one in high school soccer in the City is transferring to another high school in the City for soccer. Its not a high profile sport. Whether your at SHC or RHS you'll still get 10 people watching your gams. Ok ok, you'll get 11, cause Irish Cheers will be at SHC games.

Just for the record it's more than that. For the CCS title games this year, there were at least 2000 people there.
Its not that I believe what RiordanGael said its more what I heard from the Administrative office this week, when a certain administrator from SHC phoned their counterpart at RHS to discuss these "rumors" and that they are causing unrest amongst their Irish football community. Obviously these rumors were serious enough for the SH Administrator to call RHS. That said, its not the first time this has happened as infamous and "legendary" SH baseball coach Steve Franceschi a few years ago alleged that the Riordan friends of the program were influencing players on the Peninsula to head to Riordan. Not sure why you would even need to influence players to play at Riordan rather than playing at that freezing band box of Westborough Park SH calls their home field, but thats a subject for another board lol. That said, theres precedence for this in that whenever there is unrest at that school in the Tenderloin, I mean "Carhedral Hill" the phones all of a sudden start ringing. Fact.
Plus 1999 of your imaginary friends. Come on lol. Every year I hear reporfs of 10,000 plus at the Bruce Football game and there is maaaaaaybe 5-6k when seeing footage of the game. In fact I would say only the basketball game that sells out at USF is the attendance accurate recently. Go Irish and all imaginary leprechaun fans who show up
The baseball field at Riordan is the only field I know that unpires pregame about the validity of the infield fly rule. Any game starting after 2:00 pm is a two parka day. But they do have their own field.
Which begs the question, will field issues be solved before baseball season?
Ok back to football. SHC sucked this year more than usual (if that was possible) and Riordan for the first time in a long while, did not. Ride the wave Crusaders! End this conversation.

That's about the average attendance at ALL the football games this season! During the down years, you still saw ~1000 people at the games. Crusader community support win or lose
Just to clarify, it was a triple-header for different levels of CCS soccer titles. There were at least 2000 for all three games. I just saw the end of the first game, the SHC game and there was still a sizeable crowd for the Bells game.
Now for football, in Original Kezar days, there would be at least 1000 people per game no matter how the season was going.
As for your "Westborough freezebox", the wind tunnel at Riordan isn't so hot either. Neither is the sun in the fans' eyes.

I wasn't at the SI game and it probably was a lot less than 10,000 showing up. Kezar Pavilion packed 10,000 in there when we played SI for the trophy. I've been advocating for years the City should replace it with a comparably-sized pavilion and add some decks to the parking lot. That would do wonders for HS and college games, especially for USF. I like their gym but it's far too small for a D-1 program.
Agreed, a renovated 'Zar would do wonders for the type of HS atmosphere you got there in the 80s and even early 90s or in your case IC in the 60s. At least we agree on something!
Any good umpire SHOULD do that, bad umpires should have a convention there. Now seeing the quality of umpires that Mr. Simon has been assigning to games there, good umpires have been few and seldom seen on Phelan lol
Read this response in the Voice of AI, " Soccer, it's Soccer are we talking about Soccer" on the FB message board. Talk about putting up a distraction to some real issues.
Talk to you next year....go Irish, go improvement & God bless the child that has it's own.

ReardanGal and Fool-butt, don't worry about SHC...it will all work itself out, win or lose. I don't think any SHC fan doesn't think we don't need improvement in football. It will be interesting the next few years, let us see how you guys talk when Riordan is down, there will be those years at your school, you can count on it.

Scott, I'm sure youve seen that Riordan posters will always talk here regardless if their up or down lol. You can reference Ted's rants from offseasons of the past. Dont take it so personally. Have fun and go with it. After all, thats what the SH football team did this year and all got participation awards and maybe juice boxes at the end of each game lol

Hahaha...Ted isn't an SHC alum...I don't mind the criticism or the rival banter, actually you are one of the funnier posters....But I don't like the bs that some of the people are putting here....I don't think anyone here is saying SHC was great..lol. Those boys give it there all playing football at a non-football school, I know. We will have some success in the future too, so Im not worried.

I don't want to be disrespectful to high school soccer, but most of the best players are on year round club teams. Plus, this is an American Football forum. I believe soccer can be discussed in the "other sports" section.
It started with this BS about kids transferring "en mass" to other schools just because of how a sports team does. Even during a losing streak when I was in school, the last thing I thought of was for players to transfer out because we went 0-10 one year. I made the analogy to soccer since Riordan hasn't won much lately and I never heard of players going to SHC for a chance at a CCS title.

No need to explain, and the xfer exodus is just a rumor, but neccesitated administrators from SH feeling the need to address them, so their future is not destroyed by any exodus. That is a fact. Theres always talk of xferring in this Board, but until said athlete is at that school and in class all it is is talk. Just found it amusing that their administrators thiught it wss serious enought to warrant making a call to RHS administrators to address it because parents in their football community were feeling insecure of what COULD happen, but probably wouldnt lol well hopefully for their sakes it wont, since their banking on that to end the FUBO streak lol
well hopefully for their sakes it wont, since their banking on that to end the FUBO streak lol
If there was a call, it was over the bs and lies being spewed by Riordan Gael whose son is a Riordan coach. I have two kids in the SHC program and know most of the parents. There is absolutely no talk about transfers. The only talk I heard last night was about the BS being spewed by Riordan Gael. The only ones who will be transferring (if any) are the ones who struggle academically at SHC and transfer to Riordan for their easier academics.
On top of it, could not be proud of the Senior boys last night who showed no quit and gave Mitty a scare. They are a great band of brothers. None of them have any regrets and they are all great kids. Go Irish!

Does RGael really hit your nerves that much that he is the talk in the SHC stands? Lol. Thats comical. And your right, hopefully none of those kids had ANY regrets since they laid it all on the line for the glory of another winless wcal football season. Applaud their effort for sticking it out through these difficult seasons. Kudos and juice boxes to all!
Frosh beat Mitty 26-0 to go 6-3 on the year. That's two 6-3 seasons back-to-back for the Frosh. Irish finish tied for third with Valley Christian after the Bells lost to SI.
Its been a long time coming I Cheers, but I'm not holding my breath waiting for that day lol. I remember you posting how this year's Senior class would challenge the powers to be, but it never materialized. Like I say with Riordan's future, all we can do is wait and see.
There were some close games (St. Francis, SI, Mitty) but I really expected these guys to be better than last season. But I'm sure nobody expected Riordan to drop 66 on Serra in that abject fluke of a game either.
Riordan was very fortunate not to have any key injuries. Otherwise, it's a very different season.

This year varsity was 1-6 as a frosh team (2012)...The junior class was also 1-6 as a frosh (2013) both senior and current junior classes lost to Riordan as freshman. The current Frosh and Soph are a lot better and competed in the WCAL even with the San Jose schools. I will even add that the JV's would have a better record if the Varsity didn't need the six extra (soph) bodies to help out with all the injuries they had since the beginning of the season starting with the qb situation.
