Espola's newest neighborhood

Speaking of football, the question left in the air after the Aztecs stumbled to a win over Northern Illinois is whether NIU defender Antonio Jones-Davis will be suspended for poking Aztec running back Rashaad Penny's eyes while in the dogpile after a play. The referees didn't see it at the time, but TV and still cameras did. Penny left the game for a time for treatment in the locker room and eventually returned with a clear plastic shield installed on his helmet.

It will be interesting. Rocky knew before halftime and did seem to have an extended conversation with the NIU coach at games end. I also noticed that Rocky didn't go into the locker room right away, possibly making sure no retribution was on hand.

The layout of Aztec Stadium is such that the teams cross paths at the end of the first half to get to their respective locker rooms. This caused an issue during the Stanford game - coaches appeared to come close to fighting.

Yeah the Stanford team was taking their sweet time about crossing and the coaches got a bit testy, "on both sides". Rocky held his squad back this week and like a good host and NIU jogged off the field.

Jones-Davis suspended one game by his coach. Now Rocky Long should suspend the Aztec players who made dumbshit fouls that almost cost them the game.

Special election coming in Poway to decide whether a portion of Stoneridge CC can be rezoned and used for construction of 180 55+ condominiums. The land owner has said that if the vote fails he will close the club and fence it off.

I have played there recently, nice layout, mostly, couple funky holes and the course itself was in nice condition . . . not Maderas nice but nice. The rest of the facilities look to have needed a make over at least 10 years ago. Hate to see another golf option close their gate.

We used to be swim and tennis members, back when my wife was playing senior ladies and the kids were taking lessons. They liked that they could buy snacks with just the membership number. We have also had several high school soccer events there over the years. The dining room is just big enough, and the bar next to it allows parents to have a drink without breaking the alcohol ban rule for school events.

It looks like the plan is to convert the fairways along Espola Rd to condos, with some shortening of the course - perhaps down to 9 holes. The owner butchered the old Escondido Country Club a couple of years ago with a similar approach.
