Football Heroes

When we last saw our football superheroes (Collin and Matthew), they were on top of the world, fresh off a beat down in week one of Lower Sussex 33-0. What a game. The following game in week two? ehh... not so much. More on that in a bit. We now rejoin the wonder twits, seven games later. Bruises? Yup. Ego? In-check. Self-confidence? Through the roof. Season record? 6 and 2. For the sports novices in the crowd, and you know who you are, that's six wins and two losses. That's also a third seed in the playoffs that start Saturday! We play Dover who we played three weeks ago and beat 32 to 12. If we win this game, it's off to Smyrna next week. If we beat them, we play for the championship at Salisbury State University. Most likely we will face Woodbridge in that game. They are the team that brought our high flying heroes swiftly down to earth in week two. They are a very good team. They are also dirty and nasty. I won't go into details, but our team was not prepared for what they saw and heard in that game. And wouldn't you know it, the refs that Woodbridge hired to officiate the game, didn't see or hear a thing. Hmm. Strange. Rest assured, our Vikings are looking for some redemption. (and to open up a big ol' can of woop ass) Also, the refs for the playoffs are hand picked by the league. No home town, good ol' boys officiating for there home town team.

But first things first. Dover. We play Saturday at eleven. Tune in next week for all the bone crunching details! Same brat time, same brat channel!
