Football should be fun

[Babe the Blue Ox]

I went to a high school game yesterday for the first time in 4 years. I didn’t know any player on either team but still had a good time as the game ended in thrilling fashion after 3 overtimes.

It was the most exciting game I’ve seen since the night Zaven Collins intercepted that pass.

Watching football should be fun. These last few years haven’t been fun at all.

I agree. Today’s game should be a fun one. The season is done for both teams but we both have interim coaches with something to prove.

I’m excited to see how the players respond to the interim staff. I hope we see two teams with nothing to lose flying around for the fun of it. Most excited I’ve been for a game since Ark St.

2 years ago one of those teams was in a 6OT game in the semis.

No he won’t.

Benjamin will play on Sundays for a little while.

Not sure he has the speed and quickness at 5’8” needed to play in the Association. Add to that he will almost certainly be an undrafted free agent and it’s a tough road to make a 53. Rooting for him though

Switzer said he thinks he will play for a little bit. Just heard that mentioned during the game after I made the comment. Don't know that he'll do more than make the practice team.

High School is the best bang for the buck

In about ‘77 or ‘78 we watched a long haired guy, called them hippies at the time, climb the fence at the top of the west stands. He was able to swing over to the light pole and climb to the top of the press box where he chased about a hundred pigeons off the roof.

Then he went back down the light pole to the ground and disappeared. Awhile later, the same guy ran onto the field and grabbed the game ball while the teams were in their huddles. He tried to make it up the southeast steps but was tackled by the Tulsa cops. Our opponent was West Texas State.

That sequence was more entertaining than this entire season.
