Week 9 - I Get Friday Off

For some reason, we played on Thursday night week. In fact, we found our on Monday of this week. Good thing we looked at the Tiger's schedule because ours shows us playing tonight (Friday). I really don't think the extra day of practice would have helped us. I am sure all can believe that.

The Tigers struck early and struck often. We were down 27-3 at halftime and down 45-3 in the middle of the fourth quarter. Our first team offense scored on their second or third string defense, 45-10, and then our defense recovered a fumble in the endzone (their second or third string offense made this mistake). This was our first defensive touchdown of the season, that's right it took 9 weeks to get the accomplishment. Final socre 45-17. Have I mentioned that we are horrible?

The Tigers were far superior to the Bulldogs, in fact, most teams have been at least superior to us. But or some reason even though we 1-8 our coach hasn't accepted the fact that we just plain suck. Here is the quote from the team meeting after the game, "They [Tigers] are a good football team, but they aren't that much better than us. We just did not get mentally ready for the game. We ned to learn how to prepare mentally for games."

I leave you with this: one more week of football...yahoooooooooooooooooooooooo! Last game - Ropers, a team vying for the playoffs.
