What's up with that? Hopefully they can win their two home games this upcoming weekend.

That would be nice. It doesn't appear the team is quite the same, but a big part of the loss to Laredo is that both veterans, Frias and Samano, weren't there, so it was just the youngsters.

Add to that the fact that Villar, who looked solid in front in games here, has gone back to Juarez, plus I hear Larrosa will not be coming back, having done a little too well this past season in Paraguay.

Chuy has been slowly building a solid base of youngsters who practice with the current team, so the Patriots should have some solid talent coming up. Unfortunately, it would probably be a bit much to expect them to help this season.

Still, if they can right the ship they can make an impact, but Frias has to step up and he might need some help in the front.
