I can't argue with the numbers posted as to views. My weekly SCL commentary gets fewer and fewer looks, so am cutting it short and this is the last. I did include a little poll to find reasons why. A good time to stop, anyway, as I have been following SCL since it was the NBL II and clearly this is the lowest point since late 60s, early 70s when Newman built its reputation pounding the league for ten years. This is perhaps worse, because so many teams are just plain uncompetitive with other leagues, which was not really the case then. Here's to the players out practicing each day, and to the SCL coaches to survive this year intact and in the future somehow stem the demographic and other changes that seem to be overwhelming right now!

I was sincerely worried about the drop in views, not wanting to clog the boards if people were not really interested...plus, the season is SO depressing But thanks for the kind comments so will be at it for the rest of the year. I'll keep trying to find interesting stuff. Besides, who am I kidding, I just can't keep quiet about SCL football!

Scobserver,
I registered just so I could let you know how much enjoy your weekly SCL observations. Please do not stop, how else am I going to find out how truly awful my 'Hounds' have become.

Clog the boards? C'mon you actually give it a little life. Now that Ben has it going again more people need to start posting whatever the topic.
You got some good background /history of the SCL and what it was and what it has become (plus I know we'll get a demographic, urban vs. suburban angle in there) stick with it.

htown fan, thanks for the compliment. Your 'Hounds are down, but maybe can cop a couple more wins yet. The beatdown from Cloverdale had to hurt. At least it wasn't from Geyserville.

I think TK's last team had 9 wins but it's been downhill ever since for H'berg. Tough to get kids out after a 1-9 season last year. H'berg, El Mo and Sonoma are as down as ever before for those programs. Elsie's new coach seems to have things going in the right direction but lets be honest, how good could that program ever be? No easy answers.
