It's the start of football season as we know it......

And I feel fine!!



TheNFL starts on Thursday with the Dolphins facing the defending champion Steelers (The Steelers have my pick to win!!).

The NCAA kicked off its college football season last weekend as hometown universities USC and UCLA trounced their opponents in expected fashion.

But amidst all of the excitement that football season brings, there usually isn't much to get happy about when it comes to the team at Cerritos. In terms of popularity, the football team is one of the most attended sports on campus.For the past few years the Falcons have finished their seasons with mediocre records.



The Falcons lost to Moorpark College Saturday night,17-10

Was this game the start of what could be another inconsistent season for Cerritos?

I hate to jump the gun on this one, but it may be. After finishing 4-6 last year and 3-7 in 2004, it looks as if they are looking to keep their losing tradition alive.

Despite the loss there were a few bright spots. Cerritos has always had good running backs and this year is no exception. Rylon Thomas rushed for 86 yards on 26 carries and scored the first touchdown of not only the game but of the season.

The question remains if whether the Falcons will bounce back from the loss to give a consitently winning season, or will this year the same as others?

The Falcons will have nine upcoming games, including one against West L.A. College this Saturday, to decide.
