| Game Summary (Larry Smith, NetFL Press)
The football gods smiled down upon the DH franchise this weekend. A wounded team was provided the perfect elixir, TH, at an opportune time.
Because, if it had been anyone else but the offensively challenged TH, every DH player would be changing their ring tones to Taps this morning. Luckily, DH ran into an opponent with much less margin for error than themselves, or they'd no doubt be nursing the losing column with yet another embarrassing loss.
One big reason that DH can exhale today is that TH was talent-deficient enough to lose control of a game they had a chance to win. They looked so wanting as they drew a meat cleaver during the game and gave my brother's coin collection to a pair of destitute carnies - metaphorically speaking.
The score of 58-47 in front of a despondent home crowd for DH was aided by a ferocious defense, but even larger was the help provided by a reeling opponent that constantly pushed the wrong personnel buttons. No wonder the wanting TH have been such a welcome sight in opposing stadiums for so long. DH sure caught them on the right day.
It's doubtful that the DH defenders could have corralled a grandmother strolling across the field with the same ease as they did the TH quarterback. "Instead of him looking down the field, he was looking to see who was coming," said Adrian Wilson with 11 points on defense, a huge smile on his face. "Let's just say he got rattled a little bit."
Still, DH might not have escaped without a goto player to energize the offense - TH's very own Kelvin Hayden. He was relentlessly victimized, continuously torched play after play before the TH coaching staff mercifully pulled him, as he was as sharp as a sponge today.
"Picking on Kelvin Hayden was a part of the game plan," Alge Crumpler with 52 points on offense said. "We should have been doing it more in the first half of the game."
How true. When a NetFL team needs a pick-me-up, they can usually count on TH to deliver. DH leads the all-time series 3-1 against TH. DH has a 9-3 regular season record (1-2 in this year's playoffs). TH has a 2-10 regular season record.
"Dem's fightin' woids!": Fuel was added to the fire during the two teams' post game news conferences. Raman Ohri noted, "Nah, I don't have anything against them. They're kinda like little bunnies or maybe pop warner rejects.... kinda cute and all, but pretty impotent when it comes to football." In response, the TH coach considered this when he said, "That owner of theirs kinda reminds me of a Matt Millen and Michael Jackson hybrid... all bluster, melting face, questionable personal tastes... not exactly the kind of person I'd invite to my child's birthday party." |
