Hi all,
Look Ma, I’m
writing again. I can’t believe it either. I ran out of excuses, however I did skip
week 1, so let me pick things up on week 2. Today was a beautiful day if not
too hot, which it was. What happened to Colorado’s awesome fall weather? It
should be comfortable now, not screaming hot. Whatever. Time to move on.
Speaking of moving on, I want to throw in my quick plug about our upcoming Toys
for Tots Winter Charity tournament coming on Dec 4th. Yep, Pearl
Harbor day. A day that shall live in infamy as Franklin Roosevelt so famously
said. I was station in Pearl Harbor for a bit when I was in the Navy. Never
made it over to the USS Arizona, but what people don’t know is there are other
wreaks around the island in the middle of the harbor. Eerie wreaks from the
past. You can almost hear the ghosts on those old ships.
Shout out to
Logan Higgs and Gabe Alvarado for helping me set up the fields last week and this
week. Also, shout out to Jamar and my directors and James for helping my tear
down the fields. I appreciate all the help I can get.
OK, let’s talk
a bit about the games shall we? First game saw the Ravens take on the mighty
Vikings. You know, you watch these games and you wonder, do these guys ever
practice? At least these two teams were equal in their preparedness. This game
came real close to overtime but the Ravens managed to pull ahead at the last
moment. The Vikings had one final drive with 4 plays left but they were unable
to punch it in. Ravens hung on for the win in a close one. In the second game,
The Falcons took on our newest team, the Jets. Ladies and Gentlemen, The Jets
are for real. The Falcons did some recruiting and tried to put together a
ministack of players. Even the players from Hardwork had no answer for these
guys. The Jet jumped out to a 4 -2 lead in the first half. The second half
didn’t fare much better at the Jets continued their pounding. Falcons did
manage to put up some points but it was too little too late as the Jets
continued their dominance throughout the game. New team magic. Hadn’t had a new
team blast out this good since the Romans. We’ll see how they do when they hit
their tougher schedule. The Falcons happened to have a doubleheader. Be careful
what you wish for. The Falcons took on the Saints and frankly they went to
court and plead No Contest. Saints demolished the Falcons in short order. The
Saints are averaging 10.5 points a game. At this point, its not a matter of if
anyone can beat the Saints, it’s a matter of can they keep the Saints from
scoring under 10 points a game. They have a tougher match up next week. Let’s
see how they do. In the last game, the Dolphins drowned the Panthers in a seven
to one shellacking. I can’t emphasis this enough. YOU MUST RUSH THE QB. I can’t
understand it. Nobody understands it. But hey Panthers, you do you!
See everyone
next week.
