The Bell boys keep rolling. How does it feel to be beat down every year CCS? Can't stop the machine. Even the best publics which get all the talent can't touch them.

The Bell boys are unstoppable. They are clearly the best in sports for the entire Bay Area. How many CCS titles does that school have? They are men amugnst boys.

Superior coaching. History. Talent. Bell.

Not to talk smack about CCS but why would any runner in the CCS go anywhere but Bell? They have 16 min guys that don't even make their JV top 7. Be a part of Bell history. Be a part of greatness.

Does Bell need to build a new building to house all the CCS banners they've won?

If running is thirst Bellarmine is water.

Returning 4 guys in the 4:20's and a dominant frosh-soph team can anyone not love the Bell boys?

Not only are the bell boys fast they get all the hot babes.

When I see that bell sticker on the back of a car I just want to rear end them.

Um... Ever heard of Bellarmine?

Just goes to show you that money can't buy class.

Or an individual title.

Bell does need to buy class, they are in a class of their own.

How many individual titles does bell have. Too many to count. Like I said the publics get the talent but can't handle the machine. Jealous bro?

@7:22 - Yeah. I'm dying to be an insecure 16 year old boy.

Im confused. Hasn't Carlmont won 7 of the past 9 CCS titles?

Anonymous said...

But who performed better at State, the biggest meet of the year? You always forget to mention that. Congrats on winning CCS which is basically a dual meet and sucking when it matters most.

Obviously most of the above posts are by the same individual.

If Bellarmine was a fruit they would be golden delicious.

Did you hear a new Rocky movie was coming out? Bell KOs the Champ.

Obviously some are being funny but can we please take moment to just admire the beauty that is the Bell cross country team. I mean to dominate for so long they have to be a dynasty.

I once heard Bellarmine boys ran a 2 mile time trial uphill and 9 guys broke 10. And they did it in trainers!

But were they relaxed?

I once heard Jordan Hassay asked to take a picture with the Bellarmine boys.

I heard Alberto Salazar applied to be a coach there being a devout catholic. But he realized he could not compare to the greatness that is Bellarmine and all that came before him. He wasn't going to get the job and he knew it. Bell > Rupp.

I want to know their secrets. I mean how can one team be soooooooooooooooooooooooo good?

How do you stop Bell. Simple. You can't.

Bell has had more runners in the 15's than other every school in CCS history.

What's the secret. We run as a team Monday through Friday and let the awesomeness do the rest.

Nope.

Dude Bellarmine isn't even going to win WCAL this year. St. Francis is going to kill them. They are shredding workouts right now. Have the best coaches in the league. They are where it's at right now.

Anonymous said...

Sure, Bell might be the favorite this year in the WCAL, but next year it looks like Saint Francis is poised take it. Their junior class is loaded (according to the comparisons)

Anonymous said...

If you ever think Bell will fail to win the WCAL this day and age you are mistaken. They won every division. Younger runners develop. It's sad their 20th runner would be #1 at most schools and never get to run varsity or CCS or even in league in track. Bell has kids that could win CCS that don't even get to run league. They are the supreme power year after year. Go Bell!

If Bellarmine was a candy bar they'd be snickers because they always satisfy.

If McDonalds put Bell on the value menus they'd be the Big Mac.

Bellarmine should be just given an outdo magic bid to the state championships and put in an open division by themselves should make it fair for the rest of CCS.

If Bellarmine was a rock band they would be Queen.

Can someone please start a fan page for Bellarmine cross country? We need to bestow our love on the greatest cross country team of all time. I mean has anyone been better the last 50 years. No.

I think the 16 CCS titles pretty much speak for themselves. Legendary.

If bellarmine was a rock band, they'd be the Jonas Brothers. You know, legendary and super awesome and everything, but still a bunch of teenage boys

If Bellarmine was a nice cream flavor they'd be rainbow sherbet.

If Bellarmine were a championship team... Oh wait. They are!

If Bellarmine were a cereal they'd be a big bowl of awesome.

Man I feel sorry for this Bellarmine team if they have to put up with this kid

Anonymous said...

My guess is Bellarmine was pranked by Saint Francis.

John Calipari said...

at 5:41, I'm confused. How can Bellarmine get all the hot babes if it is an all boys school?

Anonymous said...

There are a lot of good schools (Bel is one of them)but they don't compare to the teams and individual of the 70s. If you are so hot you will go to Crystal springs and break Mitch Kingery's record from the 1970s. Anybody ready to run under 14:20? Stop playing your video games and start running 100 mile weeks!
