  1. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Superior coaching. History. Talent. Bell.

  5. 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.

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

  7. If running is thirst Bellarmine is water.

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

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

  12. Um... Ever heard of Bellarmine?

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

    ReplyDelete
  14. Or an individual title.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Bell XC is sexy.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Bell = Awesomeness

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

    ReplyDelete
  18. 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?

    ReplyDelete
  19. @7:22 - Yeah. I'm dying to be an insecure 16 year old boy.

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

    ReplyDelete
  21. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  23. If Bellarmine was a fruit they would be golden delicious.

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

    ReplyDelete
  25. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  27. But were they relaxed?

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

    ReplyDelete
  29. 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.

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

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  34. That ringing in you ear? Yea that Bell whooping ya taim mi homie.

    ReplyDelete
  35. All this talk about bell anyone else in d1 or d2?

    ReplyDelete
  36. 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.

    ReplyDelete
  37. 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)

    ReplyDelete
  38. 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!

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  41. 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.

    ReplyDelete
  42. If Bellarmine was a rock band they would be Queen.

    ReplyDelete
  43. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  45. 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

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  49. Boys Div 1-5 are now posted along with girls 1 & 2. Will finish it off on Monday or Tue.

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

    ReplyDelete
  51. My guess is Bellarmine was pranked by Saint Francis.

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

    ReplyDelete
  53. 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!
