Mar 5, 2007 - Is Sean Pollard still the coach? He was a great defensive coordinator @ Taft. Hope he is doing well. Good luck next season, you're in a tough league.

Jul 6, 2007 - worst feeling of my life i cant believe this video is on here. i can show my kids the day my prise was lost

SidelineVideo Says:

Jul 7, 2007 - You didn't lose it, your coach did...plus, you lost a couple of crucial turnovers. Also, Croson has Starr's number because Starr uses same plays and offensive scheme every year. Contact me for copy of game on DVD.

Jul 29, 2007 - always the coaches fault.....equals cheap excuse in life.......

Jul 30, 2007 - They all took responsibility for the loss. Facts are former coach Star is 1-6 in City Championship games and was always favored,,,they defeated BHam 30-6 @ BHam w/out their star wide receiver thanks to Star's complaint to the board and..Taft was heavily favored. His action pumped up the BHam squad led by Dennis Keyes. Taft coach and administration chose to take a cheap shot and cost a kid his final game, if not a ring...it backfired.

A1Video Says:

Jul 30, 2007 - Also, Starr called a bad game (ask his asst coaches), like Crenshaw two years ago. Taft had six or seven D1 players (inl Steve Smith/USC?NY Giants). BHam coach Ed Croson's had his # all the way because he called the same plays in certain situations all the time.

pnkpopcorn49 Says:

Sep 29, 2007 - well Coach Pollard went to be head coach and ECR but they were such horrible people and so mean that he went back to Taft but Starr left gave Pollard a horrible rap and gave the head coach job to Matt Something who can't coach for crap.

SidelineVideo Says:

Sep 30, 2007 - In 2002 I saw Pollard, who was Taft's defensive coordinator under Starr, put a stop to some very good team's strategy...had shutout after shutout....BHam lost 30-6 to Taft that year, then got back at them in the City final and demolished them...what I'm trying to say is I thought Coach Pollard was a really good coach...saw him after hours, off season in wt. rm many times...anyway, he IS a good coach...bet he bumped up against some administration power trippers.

TheKidUn Says:

Oct 19, 2007 - How can you lose that badly with an All-American like Steve on your team? 1-6? I heard of that, and after he left Exavier Johnson (trans. to B-Ham) said he might have stayed if he knew Starr was leaving. Shit, Pollard should be their coach now, he's the one the players love. Not that other dude. And what Starr did with Ward was disgraceful, it's so suprise karma bit his ass. Great vid SidelineVideo, please come to Granada Hills.

SidelineVideo Says:

Oct 22, 2007 - Yup...that Benny Ward thing was his undoing...chickenshit move got him what he got...another loss @ City. Did you hear what he did to us @ the Taft game in 2005? We currently have a lawsuit naming Starr, principal Sharon Thomas and various John Doe's. BTW, Sean Pollard is a very smart coach...way underrated. See ya at GH game.

TheKidUn Says:

Oct 22, 2007 - What the hell did they do?

JQUiK84 Says:

Dec 15, 2007 - taft always fucks up in a championship when steve on the team they say he had the best offensive line milton knox that is a bad ass offensive line. steve was good but back then he had competetion too wit another guy that had more potential than steve im not hating or anything i think the best WR in 2001 was Ramon Perry. Ramon is stupid bad grades and shit what ever happened to ramon??

SidelineVideo Says:

Dec 28, 2007 - We were now working for Bham @ Taft game 10.21.05 Starr /Thomas told police to eject us...we asked why and began taping their response ("Turn off the camera""Admin said kick you out"), they took us down violently, faceplant, forced our arms behind, handcuffed, injured, humiliated in front of Bham stands, Taft friends, ripped biceps, torn rotators, hernia, then arrested on ridiculous charges(charges dropped).

Nov 6, 2008 - ahhh my teacher33 coach k!!! - this is may not leeon =]

TidelineVideo Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Coach K got his first win (as head coach) over Bham and showed lots of class, as did the players, after the win. Whole new vibe @ T-House...new coach is difference...wow...still pick Bham or Taft to win it all, but Narbonne seededb#1...we'll see...west Vallery rules.
