whittiers d looks pretty bad, the o has some good skill players but they always seem to disappear against good defenses

believe me dad, Ive seen what you are referring to in my sons first go around, but this offense is much deeper than anything Ive seen at whittier. Schulock was a one man show a few years back..these guys are at least three strong recievers deep and RBs and QB are more than solid. Time will tell I guess, but we are optomistic with how things went in camp and the fire the guys have shown to date.

I think the Poets are moving in a positive direction for sure....

I have to agree with FTP.  I think Whittier is going to surprise a lot of people this year.  They may not be a powerhouse but they'll prove to be competitive. 
(Oh and as a mom of one of those D line players I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree cludad on your statement that their "D" looks pretty bad)

The Hammers are a very nice family and we appreciate their efforts. I wish BJ and family well.

My sentiments exactly.

I feel complelled to put in my two cents worth here even though FTP addressed it already. !!  Whittier may be struggling with its football program currenlty, and hopefully some changes will be made (we do know that the athletic director and president are closely monitoring these issues) but a majority of their athletic programs (such as baseball, basketball, water polo, etc) have come a long way and are doing well.  That being said, Whittier as a whole is a phenomenal college and IMO should not be referred to as "Because they are Whittier"  As already pointed out by FTP, although little Ricky no longer plays football he still loves this college.  Ultimately isn't the goal here to walk away with a great education intact??   We may not always like what is going on but we bleed Purple and Gold and will continue to support the Poets in any way that we can.   :)

Go POETS!

Best to LR . . . congrats on raising a kid smart enough to know himself and to make a gutsy decision like that  . . . glad that he's happy at school and that things are going well.

best,

tooth
=============================================
Thanks Tooth!!
LR thought long and hard about his decision and ultimately this was the best choice for him.  He's definately going to miss playing and it was a hard decision but something he felt very strongly about.  There were a few things that came into play with his decision but the biggest was his future and his upcoming year / studies.  He's starting his Junior year and he's a Math major with a chem minor.  This semester he has a full load of classes all of which are Math related and wants to focus on them. As we stated earlier FTP and I couldn't be prouder.

Also Thanks everyone for the kind words. 

DAW  (AKA Lucy!)
Go Poets!

Happy Football season.

My friend OB let me know the question came up about LR. Alas, LR is done with Football. For the first time in 12 years, Lucy and I are not getting ready to watch him play. He is still going to the school(and loves the school) and doing track, but his gridiron days are through. He decided he has had enough...well, his body has anyway. :)

To keep his football fix going, he is the DL coach for the freshman team at his old high school and assistant OL coach on Varsity on fridays. With his school and work, he will coach as his schedule permits. He bleeds the Black and Red of Troy.

It is bittersweet for us, becuase we love watching him play so much, but we are proud of him for making the decision he felt strong about. We have already dusted off our Troy gear for fridays. He is a great kid and we love him.

Of course we fully support the Poets and their coaching staff and hope for big improvements this season.

GO POETS!!!

====================================================

I Second what FTP is saying above.  Although every day he practiced and Played I worried about him on that field.  As a mom everytime he got hit or hit someone I cringed but I loved to watch him play.(and for those of you who know me you probably could hear me screaming before you saw me!!)    It's truly going to be an adjustment for us not to see him play but as FTB said we are so proud of him and the decisions he has made.(besides we still get to see him, just as a coach instead of a player now!!)   I wish all your teams much success this year and may the boys stay healthy.  Thanks for making FTB and I feel so welcomed when we first joined..  As always we are still big poets fans, and will be checking this board too... (So play nice boys!!) ;D

I offered to join the daughter in the run. I have a sweet pair of Sponge Bob underwear.

FTP:  If somethig changes let me know I'm in.....I must be older than you....but I do have a cool pair of "Underoos"

spidey or superman?

"INCREDIBLE HULK" of course...I think I got them from GHC  >:(

Really don't think I needed that mental picture of the two of you running through the streets in sponge bob and Incredible Hulk Underwear!!  Yike ;D

Why DAW...is it because you don't think we can run anymore ? :P

It's not the "Running" part i'm worried about!!  :D  ::)

  WHY? Because they're young and they'll never be in better shape. The boys are all lean and fit, with their paunches far in the future. The girls are trim, with great skin and no cellulite, and nothing sagging or drooping yet. And foremost, because they can.
  C'mon, admit it DAW. If you had had the chance to do something like this when you were 19 or 20 you would have been right out there with everyone else. I know I would have.

Undie Run (w/ pics and video)[/url]

Being a mom... all I can think is... "WHY" My daugther just told me that they have their "Undie" run for CSUF tonight...  I didn't understand it when she was a freshman, a sophmore and still as Junior I don't get it!!  But it's safe cause the police are following them....  riiiiiiiiiiiigggggggggghhhhhtttt

Your daughter and her girlfriends had better be careful when it comes to the police. If they attract the attention of an overzealous, dyslexic officer, then your daughter and the other gals might end up spending the night behind bras.

She's been dating a police officer for over a year and 1/2 now so this could be a plus if this should happen!! ::)

I wonder if the Chapman coaches slip this news item into their recruiting info:

OUCHIE!!  However I believe in an off handed way this was a compliment for the poets!!!!   :D

Oxy has consistently clobbered Whittier, and I have repeatedly pointed out that Whittier is terrible, yet the Poets didn't up and quit like Colorado College did, which is a real tribute to the fighting spirit of Whittier, which endeavors to persevere despite not being any good.

CalCat,

Don't let OxyBob see that list.   ;)

OxyBob would point out Occidental's strength was hurt by not having to play Occidental  ;D

Well thank god for Principia and the boost in OW's  ;) (sorry FTP)
OUCHIE!! :-[
