| 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, SC, at an opportune time.
Because, if it had been anyone else but the offensively challenged SC, 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 SC was talent-deficient enough to lose control of a game they had a chance to win. They looked so wanting as they coerced a meat cleaver during the game and electrocuted the dog with a toaster - metaphorically speaking.
The score of 31-10 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 SC 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 SC quarterback. "Instead of him looking down the field, he was looking to see who was coming," said Donnie Edwards with 15 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 - SC's very own Chad Pennington. He was relentlessly victimized, continuously torched play after play before the SC coaching staff mercifully pulled him, as he performed like a spasmodic violinist.
"Picking on Chad Pennington was a part of the game plan," Alge Crumpler with 26 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 SC to deliver. DH leads the all-time series 15-3 against SC. DH has a 9-3 regular season record (1-2 in this year's playoffs). SC has a 5-7 regular season record (0-1 in this year's playoffs).
There's no love lost between these two clubs. Raman Ohri said, "Oh, they're harmless... a bit annoying too, I guess... Kinda remind me of Barney or Big Bird..." In response, the SC coach waxed poetic, stating, "Like 'em? No... not really. I'd rather strangle puppies in front of a dozen orphans than pull that wretched owner of theirs out of a burning building." |
