Super Bowl 2012
We played 6v6 for the Mr. T Super Bowl. West beat East 35-15. West had Ken Anderson, Patrick M, Kevin W, Mark H, Big Dan, Heat Seeker and Tommy B. East had The Judge, Dancing Star, The UF, 4X, Roger M & Big Jim. West lost Heat Seeker very early in the game when he injured his ankle and they played inspired ball for their fallen comrade. Ken Completed 4 TD passes for the West to Kevin W, Mark H, Patrick M and Tommy B. Patrick M also threw a TD pass to Ken. For the East, The Judge completed 2 TD passes both to Big Jim. Ending the season on a high note, we successfully converted all of the extra points. Kickers we are! Rushing the QB for both teams was Danny W who registered a sack!Stats
Although for the most part it is meaningless (since we all switch teams so often, being the free agents that we are) West beat East 10 - 6 this year. The scoring was much closer: 486 - 437.
For this year's attendance record we had some Good, Bad & Ugly. The Good was we played 16 games - most ever. We also had 10 players play in more than 10 games and we had 52 different players - another record. 4X played so much football he's almost 3X. Almost. The Bad was we lost at least 7 players to injury. Hopefully they will all be back next year. And the Ugly, despite having the opportunity to play 16 games, 42 players played in less than 10. Its really not that hard. You just need to have the right priority - which is ALWAYS football. You need to work out hard and constantly so that you can play over and over and over and never get tired or hurt. You also need to make sure you do not let your family schedule anything on Saturdays between Thanksgiving and the NFL Superbowl. It's easy. This is an actual conversation I had with my family:
"Honey", Jojo said, "Do you think we could take a trip to the islands this Winter?"
I replied, "Well, so long as we don't have to leave before Saturday afternoon and we are back by Friday night."
"Ah, come on Dad", Emily said, "can't you just miss one game?"
To which Jojo responded, "Now Emily, you know how important football is."
Then Emily said, "Oh. OK. I forget sometimes."
"That's OK Em", I said. "Even some of the Prissies I play football with forget sometimes."
"They just don't have their priorities right," said Jojo.
"Well", said Olivia, "I am just glad my Daddy can still kick a$$ and is not old and fat like those other Daddies that can't play football."
"That's right Liv", I said, "How about if we take a trip in the middle of the week and you girls can cut school?"
"That sounds awesome, Dad!" said Olivia. "Your the best, Dad!" said Emily.
At this year's T Party we're gonna play some air guitar with Jimi, Jimmy, Mick & Pete. I like to swing my long hair around like I did when I was a teenager. I hope everyone can make it!
When Mr. T plays Air Guitar, Jimi haunts the night.
