Another MTTFL season in the books

Rudeboys lose semi-final

Added 2011-11-12

I looked hard to find a positive way to describe today's result. In the end, the final score said it all. We had lost our playoff game against the Vikings, 35—6.

Player of the day was Steve, with two (2!) interceptions on bobbled balls and overall tough coverage. Travis had a huge interception, and Dree had our touchdown. I got to play a fair bit in the third quarter and was really impressed with the way Andrew called the plays in the huddle, especially on that lovely long touchdown march. We didn't get outplayed, we just ran out of time.

So that's it for this year's Rudeboys. I said to Andrew after the game that our problem was, we had too many old guys, but he said no, we just don't have enough young guys.

So that'll be our challenge over the winter, to find some more good young players. Then maybe I can afford to retire from the MTTFL. Meanwhile, I hope to be enjoying myself for another winter playing Sunday Football.
