WELCOME TO MY SITE!
Hi, I'm Coach Tim Mendoza, I've coached semipro and high school football since 1999 in the San Francisco Bay area and Modesto, having coached with the 49ers of Redwood City Dodge, San Jose Jaguars, Milpitas Rams, Modesto Raiders and Eastbay Outlaws. I've contributed with other fantastic coaches winning 2 Amateur Bowl championships over that span! We had a good comeback year with the Outlaws in 2008, but I'm looking for more challenge and to specialize my role as an offensive coordinator only so I'll be the new Offensive Coordinator of the California Warriors this upcoming 2009 season! In 2008, our offense with the Outlaws rated around the 5th in the league, averaging over 175 rushing yards per game and 200 passing per game over the season. We started out slow with key injuries to our QB and the loss of our arena level TE, but made some minor adjustments on both sides of the ball and won 4 of our last 5 games down the stretch to the playoffs. We had a young team, so we made many mistakes over the season but we got better as the year went on and the players learned how to play together. I consider our season there a success bringing the Outlaws two things they had never accomplished before, a 5 win season and a record 61 points scored in one game! I will miss the coaching staff and players there but now they get to see me on the other sideline in 2009! The demise of coach Tim has been greatly exaggerated.....

Outlaws jump the gun releasing coach....
It looks like coach Mendoza will be available to coach offense again for the upcoming 2009 football season and has been retained now by the California Warriors. Outlaw ownership mistakenly heard he was looking to leave the team for greener pastures elsewhere, due to a rumor heard by Fred Sprung, but never bothered to ask him about it personally and so BJ, Todd & Fred thus made the decision they would not bring him back and posted some phony excuse for it on their site to save face. He did intend to return there, although he planned on focusing solely on the offensive side of the ball, if they made some necessary operations changes but now the point is mute since they already severed his position. This could become an opportunity to continue next season what he does best, field productive offensive teams!! Last year, although Outlaws ownership did not post the game stats, coach Mendoza's son kept his offensive stats himself and posted some good totals for the season. His offense averaged around 400 yards per game, the running game being the most productive over the season, and his offense set team and league records, albeit brief, for total points scored with 61 in a single game. The leading rusher was Mike Sotamayor with 193 carries and 4 TD's. The leading QB was Alex Amin, with 1188 yards and 10 TD's in his final season, also rookie Nestor Campos contributed honorably with 4 TD's and 366 yards more in relief of an injured Amin early in the season during their 1-4 stretch and even kicked extra points and field goals when called upon. The leading WR was Will Thompson with 49 catches for 628 yards and 10 TD's! Not bad for a 10 game season at this level! Coach Mendoza had received interest from two other teams since his firing and has decided to join the Warriors family in 2009! Outlaws, your loss is going to be their gain for sure but it would have been nice to finish what was started, now I guess its back to the drawing board for you now!

"DOUG HOLLAND INDUCTED INTO MLFN SEMIPRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME!"
Doug "the deuce" Holland, pictured here at the induction ceremony this past December, has been inducted into the MNFL Semipro football Hall of Fame. He traveled to Nevada to play in their All-Star game and was inducted the following day. Doug chose his former coach and good friend, Jim Clarke, also a former player and now Commissioner of the NCAFF, to present him into the hall. Doug's final career stats are too impressive to list here, but nonetheless, they are up there among the nation's best. He still holds the record for the longest Int return for TD in Northern California History at 107 yards while he played for Jim Clarke and the Mountain View Flyers. Doug is very deserving of this honor having played for 14 seasons at such a high level against some of the very best receivers in semipro football. Of course, he worked against some of the very best too while with the Flyers, 49ers, Jaguars & Raiders in practice each day such as James Smith, Sadeo Langfeldt, Raymond Price, Mickey Stewart, Pat Tennyson, Yama Kashifi and Anthony Griffin. Doug also played other positions when asked such as running back, defensive end, linebacker and wide receiver. He is the consummate team player and a fine example of sportsmanship on and off the field. You will be missed Doug on the field, but your contributions are now being recongnized by the sport's peers and hopefully some of your teammates over the years as well in coming seasons. Congratulations and hope to see you again soon! - Coach Tim.
