| Game Summary (Ralph Jones, NetFL Press)
Matt Ryan noted, "They came at us with some tough schemes, but we were able to put a few decent plays together. I think we can move the ball against anyone, stop anyone and we just didn't execute today." Well no kidding, Einstein. MHD was bad. Awful. Grotesque. An embarrassment to the league, I dare say. I love football. The stale smell of rancid beer, the sweaty crowd of rabid fans, the cross-eyed and homely cheerleaders trying to incite us to collective ear-drum rupturing noise, the reverberating sound of vicious collisions, the poetic beauty of a laser-guided bullet pass crashing into the receiver's outstretched hands - yes, this is what I live for. This is what I saw today. Kudos to PC for pulling out the family shotgun, blitzing them and definitively putting on the superior show, but overall, it was quite a frenetic, enjoyable game.
So now the series stands PC leads the all-time series 3-2 against MHD. PC has a 3-3 regular season record. MHD has a 2-4 regular season record. The latest (what I shall laughingly call a) contest saw PC has repelled MHD as though they were horses being sent to the glue factory 62-16 in front of a jeering and hostile crowd.
They looked unstoppable on the PC squad particularly on the offensive side of the ball last week as they racked up a combined 308 points, 216 on offense and 92 on defense. Correll Buckhalter with 35 points on offense and Sam Koch with 13 points on defense were the top scorers. All that aside, Doc's been looking into a revolutionary new surgery - replace his hands with anything - stickum, chicken claws, even bricks would be an improvement. I mean, he drops balls as if they were live ferrets. of the game goes to Gosder Cherilus. Some players need a bit more instruction than others. I've tried a few less orthodox teaching tools from time to time..."
Says Gosder Cherilus, dragging around a cart full of dirty laundry, "Coach says he'll find a use for me in this system if it kills us both. Yo, just gimme a little slack, man. But this, goin' from starter not even to the bench... I'm bein' disrespected!"
Antoine Bethea added, "I ain't sayin' nothin'... OK, maybe just a little. Dude's even worse here than on the field. Starching everyone's straps? Using so much bleach it dissolves the danged cotton? I'm almost at the point where I want to go into Coach's doghouse just so I can get some properly handled laundry!"
"Dem's fightin' woids!": Fuel was added to the fire during the two teams' post game news conferences. Glenn Good waxed poetic, stating, "I suppose every league needs a doormat. I feel some degree of scorn for them to be sure, but mostly, I just shake my head and watch them bumble their way from game to game with a sense of detached amusement." In response, the MHD coach waxed poetic, stating, "Who? Do they even play professional football?" |
