The words "I WILL" is certain to have a special meaning to the Bears Junior All American Football class of 2010. It is the organization's inaugural class and secures the foundation for what WILL be the beacon of youth football in North Orange County.
Back in 1910, President Theodore Roosevelt made a speech that is now commonly referred to as "The Man in the Arena" speech. Roosevelt noted, "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better."
"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place SHALL NEVER BE WITH THOSE COLD AND TIMID SOULS WHO NEITHER KNOW VICTORY OR DEFEAT."
The Bears Junior All American Football Family WILL appreciate and honor our players who are "in the arena." And as such our players WILL be acknowledged.
Over six million children in the United States participate in some level of organized youth sports. Less than one million play football. Bears Junior All American Football players WILL be praised because playing football WILL be a positive experience for them in their continued maturation into adulthood.
The Bears Junior All American Football Family WILL mentor and motivate our players to life's noble accomplishments.
The Bears Junior All American Football Family WILL lift our players hearts and minds and encourage them to continue to try in life and on the field.
The Bears Junior All American Football Family WILL lift our players up and impart to them that success or failure has nothing to do with a scoreboard, but everything to do with their individual and collective efforts.
The words "I WILL" WILL become the battle cry for the entire Bears Junior All American Football Family and we hope you WILL join us. Join us in providing a better solution, a better environment, a better opportunity, a better experience, and a better day for our children. Because we WILL.

There Is No Honor Among Thieves
Courtesy of the Orange County Register:
Robert Thomas Espinoza, 46, has pleaded no contest to charges that he stole money from the Fullerton Pop Warner junior football league when he was president in 2001 and 2002.
Prosecutors say he stole a minimum of $16,000, but a judge will decide how much Espinoza has to pay back at a Dec. 17 restitution hearing.
Farrah Imami, a spokeswoman for the Orange County District Attorney's Office, said Espinoza's sentencing hearing has been delayed until November 2008, when a judge will decide if Espinoza must serve any jail time.
Imami said the length of the possible sentence would likely depend on how much Espinoza has paid back to Pop Warner by that 2008 hearing.
He pleaded Wednesday.

What ever happened to convict Espinoza? He has been promoted to Commissioner of Pop Warner's Orange Empire Conference. There is no honor among thieves.
