Can’t believe team “hater-ade” from these blogs havent found there way here yet. Congratulations to all the participants! See a few names missing guessing they declined the invite. Should be an interasting game, can’t wait! Alco vs coco pride is on the line!

Back to Contra Costa vs. Alameda. I guess this takes the place of the Sac vs. East Bay series we have had the past couple of years. At least this way, twice as many East Bay kids get to participate.
They still have the North vs. South game that I understand Karris Johnson is particpating in, and I heard at least one other Cal player also couldn’t make it, so there are none from Cal this year. With DLS in the state bowl game this week, they can’t make it either. There are still a lot of great athletes in the mix for both teams and it should be a good matchup.

Where cory sails from encinal????
December 14th, 2012 at 1:29 pm
DLS doesn’t have any players on the roster because every day in practice is an all star game between players from different counties.
December 14th, 2012 at 1:55 pm
Some players from the east bay are playing in the Cal State game on the same date. The Cal State Game is Northern Cal vs Southern Cal.
December 14th, 2012 at 2:02 pm
The counties DLS represents are Alameda, Contra Costa and Solano.
To make it fair Wackopride, let’s have a game between the DeLa county players vs. the all-star teams listed.
DeLa wins.

Contra Costa KICKS ALAMEDA butt. I am rooting for alameda… but they dont stand a CHANCE

Hey does anyone know why the MVAL all-league teams have not been posted yet????
December 14th, 2012 at 11:52 pm
Granite Bay 21 Long Beach Poly 20!
What a game! Short of DLS getting beat tomorrow night, this should change a lot in California state rankings. Massey’s Computer (Max Preps) ought to implode! (Massey had SoCal teams rated considerably higher than any in NorCal, DLS excepted). So did I for that matter. With a De La Salle victory tomorrow night I’ll be moving several NorCal(including some from the Bay Area) into my State Final Top 30!
I put this comment here because there were no posts this week about this weekend’s Cal Bowls (that seemed a bit strange).

SJS NorCal congrats- all that Poly speed adds to nothing in a disclipined coached game.
December 15th, 2012 at 11:02 am
@BigJoe- How does going to Div I state championship, losing on a missed extra point add to nothing? Also, a team with mostly black players can’t play in a disciplined coached games? Are they thugs too? what are you trying to say?
December 15th, 2012 at 6:24 pm
dam. OAKDALE IS EXTREMELY SAD TO WATCH!
December 15th, 2012 at 8:45 pm
How does Marin Catholic blow a 21-0 lead?
December 16th, 2012 at 11:13 am
H.S. I watched DLS play Poly twice. Great team, under-achieving coaching. Too many penalties. Poly was not Poly good this year. Finished at 11-3, lost to Narbonne 56-00 during the season Cent. beat the undeated Narbonne team to get their bid, but Poly upset MaterDei to go to state bowl. GraniteBay and another SJS powerhouse Grant beat them a few years back. I dont think they prepare well. Has nothing to do with what color players are. They under achieve against well coached disclipined teams.

Congratulations to all of the All-Star picks. Agree with Prep Fan more numbers is good compared to the Sacto vs East Bay formula the last three years. The players are sure to be fired up to end their high school football careers with a W.
The rivalry that was slowly building will be missed, and in light of the first year of the NorCal play in games, there would’ve been amplified competitiveness between the two areas. I thought with the pretty good gate at MV last year, the organizers would repeat the formula, but not so. Bergman and Kravitz had 40 plays ready to go with four days of practice but the bigger news was the EB defense which throttled the Folsom (new Calif leader passing yards) and Del Lago’s QB’s. There was big time hitting with no fullbacks and unlimited blitzing; the QBs had to bring an A game.
Although the “all-state” game is prestigious, and too far away the weekend before Xmas, it should be noted that Demariay Drew from Livermore High was outstanding in last year’s Classic. A few days later he was given his scholarship to Cal.

@DJ
Being a based no huddle team that can’t switch gears. No grinding running game. Same reason that CN blew a 17 point 2nd half lead against MC. Like the no huddle but never loved it. Never liked the YV’s of the early & mid 2000′s but had to respect how they could get 2 first downs with the lead & it felt like they scored.
December 17th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Wow get to see my Guys on Both teams this year. Flenoid McCleary at Deer Valley and Aaron Ve’e From Encinal. Both Offensive Tackles and they both will play at the next level! Jet Pride!

A huge reminder the Contra Costa vs. Alameda all star game is tomorrow at Pitt High. Kick off is at 1:00pm
December 23rd, 2012 at 9:45 am
Odd… There is a team on there that had probably the worst defense in the east bay and they have TWO kids on the Alameda team.. crazy

just becuase a team plays bad doesnt mean the players are bad
