| Game Summary (Larry Smith, NetFL Press)
The football gods smiled down upon the LLL franchise this weekend. A wounded team was provided the perfect elixir, WLR, at an opportune time.
Because, if it had been anyone else but the offensively challenged WLR, every LLL player would be changing their ring tones to Taps this morning. Luckily, LLL 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 LLL can exhale today is that WLR was talent-deficient enough to lose control of a game they had a chance to win. They looked so grotesque as they pulled a kipper snack during the game and set fire to my neighbor's gaudy yard art - metaphorically speaking.
The score of 21-5 in front of a despondent home crowd for LLL 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 grotesque WLR have been such a welcome sight in opposing stadiums for so long. LLL sure caught them on the right day.
It's doubtful that the LLL defenders could have corralled a grandmother strolling across the field with the same ease as they did the WLR quarterback. "Instead of him looking down the field, he was looking to see who was coming," said Robert Mathis with 20 points on defense, a huge smile on his face. "Let's just say he got rattled a little bit."
Still, LLL might not have escaped without a goto player to energize the offense - WLR's very own Kyle Orton. He was relentlessly victimized, continuously torched play after play before the WLR coaching staff mercifully pulled him, as he was as sharp as a sponge today.
"Picking on Kyle Orton was a part of the game plan," Thomas Jones with 28 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 WLR to deliver. LLL trails the all-time series 4-5 against WLR. LLL has a 5-7 regular season record (1-0 in this year's playoffs). WLR has a 8-4 regular season record (0-1 in this year's playoffs).
Though the game was already decided on the field, apparently neither team was done. Scott Lawrence waxed poetic, stating, "Who? I didn't realize they were still in the league." In response, the WLR coach 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." |
