The THANG:
10 brave souls suffered numb fingertips, chapped lips, and meat shrinkage to get out this morning and act like kids again. Hipbone hit the deck several times in attempts to snag errant passes (both by Q). El Ab laid full out for a scoring catch, and Luther showed some amazing athleticism on some big plays.
It was obvious that brothers in law, Frostbite and Private Ryan, had a planning session prior to the game as both conveniently wore dark colors, suggested they play on the same team, then proceeded to attempt to torch all other players with speed and some thinly veiled set plays. Them, coupled with Exit 54’s mind games (tricking players from opposing team that he was on their team with his light gray shirt) and El Ab’s height, and Talladega’s sure hands on the same team made for a seemingly tough assignment.
But the scrappy light team made light work of the seemingly unbeatable darks. Light team was led by Catfish’s out of bound’s throw offs, Homeland’s bad passing, Hipbone’s dives, Luther’s defense, and TP’s snags through El Ab’s porous defense completely destroyed the dark team with a score of 15-2!
Big play of the game was TP’s soaring snag with crotch in the face of El Ab who proceeded to fall down just in time to witness TP spike the Frisbee, and rip his shirt off like Superman. A very close second was Catfish’s diving mouth-catch in the end zone (that’s right, he caught the frisbee in his mouth), followed by his “that’s why they call me Catfish, m-f’ers!” scream and touchdown dance. The light team was on fire and ran circles around the obviously more talented dark team leaving them sucking wind and throwing in the white towel before time was called. Frostbite admitted he’d never been more embarrassed in his life, except when he’s watching the Gators this season.
Some embellishment of today’s events may be present in the narrative above, but all seemed to have a great time, and were all pretty well gassed on the run back to ASEC.
Very much enjoyed it fellas, looking forward to a rematch!
