Thursday night we found out that our Trojans not only have a ton of weed as discovered earlier this week, but also a lot of heart. They fought back from a 42 to 3 deficit to a 49 to 10... deficit. If that's not a moral victory, I don't know what is.
I've been trying to be more optimisic about our football team lately, and the Battle of the Boot really shivered me timbers, threatening to turn around my new found smile. Although we got rocked by one of the best teams in the state, I managed to dig deep and find some golden moments that outshined the tragic loss to our cross town rivals.
Here is what I came up with...
Nate Ewing gave me a McDouble for free
China's fumble recovery was friggin' awesome (Tay-lor Aus-tin, clap, clap, clapclapclap)
Charles Rogers threw an amazing pass to Tayler Bontrager for a 'touchdown'
Our field goal attempt wasn't blocked, and we made it (9 more field goals, clap, clap, clapclapclap)
The West High PAT special teams put together another great performance, going 1 for 1. Astounding...
At one point in the game, we stopped the Little Hawks on third down and they were forced to punt on fourth... simply amazing...
Party in the USA was played not twice, but three times in the student section. Thank you Miley Cyrus and Katie Aschoff
We scored an actual touchdown (double digits, clap, clap, clapclapclap)
Sean Moore and Maddie Vernon shared a steamy goodbye after being cheered on by the student section
No bottles were thrown at the cheerleaders, and therefore the cheerleaders didn't throw any back (you got lucky this time, Tommy)
That's all for now. I hope everyone can now see as I see and realize that they actually had a good time on Thursday. GO WEST!
On a completely different note, the Green House Sports blog is being featured in next week's West Side Story. Keep an eye out.
Yours truly,
