Taco Tuesday, the Highlight of Any Week


Tues. & Wed., November 7-8, 2023
Tuesday is fast becoming our favorite day of the week. For the past month or so, we have taken a serious approach to the entire . . . 

. . . Taco Tuesday phenomenon

Adding Ruby's Mexican Restaurant's tri-tip soft taco to the mix this week was sheer genius.

The GCYFL Playoffs reach the
Finals stage in style

The GCYFL Championship games in all six of their divisions (Mighty Mite, Bantam, Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior and Senior) will be played in succession this coming Friday starting at 8:00 a.m.

The games are being played on Friday instead of the usual Saturdays because it is a National Holiday as we celebrate Veterans/Armistice Day.

The venue for this Championship Day is an added bonus that will create even more special memories for all involved.

The games will be played at SoFi Stadium, the home of the NFL's Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers.

AWESOME!

Here are the results for the GCYFL's Sophomore Division, the division in which Jacob's Camarillo Stingers competed, from last Saturday and the match-up for this Friday.

Championship Bracket Championship Game

Consolation Bracket Final Game
Saturday, November 4, 2023

#9 Calabasas Gold (5-5) 14 vs. #10 Fillmore (4-6) 8

As for the college ranks . . .

This week's second CFP rankings
showed no changes in the Top Five

A #5 Huskies (9-0) win in Seattle over
#17 Utah (7-2) might move the UW into
the Top Four leading to a playoff spot

At least nine I think,
maybe (hopefully) more

After the Utah game, Washington plays at #12 Oregon State (7-2) and then home against Washington State in the Apple Cup (4-5).

If everything goes right, a possible rematch in Las Vegas' Allegiant Stadium in the PAC-12 Championship Game vs. #6 Oregon (8-1) is a real possibility. That is if the Ducks also take care of their business vs. USC (7-3), at Arizona State (2-7) and vs. #12 Oregon State (7-2) in their annual Civil War clash.

There are lots of possibilities in these last four weekends of the regular season to be sure.

Can't wait to see what two teams
end their seasons in this bowl game

The projected, intriguing match-up at the moment according to CBS Sports is a #15 Oklahoma State vs. #20 Notre Dame bowl game.

I'm sure that as youngsters, many of the current Cowboys and Fighting Irish players dreamed of someday wearing Pop Tart Bowl Championship rings.

Maybe not.

Other top notch college post-season bowl games with interesting sponsors this year include but are not limited to the:
Cheez-It Citrus Bowl
Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl

Duke's Mayo Bowl
Wasabi Fenway Bowl

Barstool Sports Arizona Bowl
Cricket Celebration Bowl

Avocados from Mexico Cure Bowl
Scooter's Coffee Frisco Bowl

Famous Idaho Potato Bowl
Bad Boy Mowers Pinstripe Bowl

Now as to the Rams on a bye week . . .

Is Wentz the answer to the
Rams QB injury issues?

If Wentz can get the ball to
this amazing Rams rookie WR
consistently, then YES!

The season in Spain is warming up . . .

Our friends on the Guadalajara Stings
will take part in a three-way scrimmage
on Saturday in Sevilla

Chuckles from the net . . .

If you have ever played Uno,
then you know these conflicting
feelings from both players' perspectives

I am starting to identify
with this more every day

Less than a week now until our
next Taco Tuesday experience

MUY BUENO!
