Well today was the last game of the season - two 0-6 teams battling it out for bottom of the bowl. It was typical last game weather with cold, wind, and misty rain on and off. Can you tell?
It started off quite the defensive battle with no one scoring until second quarter when Vern's team scored! You should have heard us all cheering. This was the first time the team scored in the first half and first!
There is one thing both teams could have done with less of:
the DREADED yellow flag.
I mean to tell you there was one referee that took his job a bit to serious with 9 year olds. We had more flags with this game than the entire season! Both teams got first downs on flags alone. One time the other ref called him over to no avial... The announcer even said "This is a FRIENDSHIP bowl." I think the fans got it but the bad ref didn't.
Just a photo of Vern running. Poor guy was so tired he could barely eat his dinner. He took a shower, I read a couple chapters to him and he was asleep before 8pm!
Here is Vern in on a tackle/fumble recovery.
And here is what you have been waiting for...................................................
THEY WONNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
20-0
