| Game Summary (Larry Smith, NetFL Press) The football gods smiled down upon the OA franchise this weekend. A wounded team was provided the perfect elixir, PC, at an opportune time. Because, if it had been anyone else but the offensively challenged PC, every OA player would be changing their ring tones to Taps this morning. Luckily, OA 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 OA can exhale today is that PC was talent-deficient enough to lose control of a game they had a chance to win. They looked so grotesque as they thrust our last jar of dried beef during the game and electrocuted the dog with a toaster - metaphorically speaking. The score of 73-41 in front of a jeering and hostile crowd for OA 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 PC have been such a welcome sight in opposing stadiums for so long. OA sure caught them on the right day. It's doubtful that the OA defenders could have corralled a grandmother strolling across the field with the same ease as they did the PC quarterback. "Instead of him looking down the field, he was looking to see who was coming," said DeMeco Ryans with 16 points on defense, a huge smile on his face. "Let's just say he got rattled a little bit." Still, OA might not have escaped without a goto player to energize the offense - PC's very own Keith Rivers. He was relentlessly victimized, continuously torched play after play before the PC coaching staff mercifully pulled him, as he played about as well as a frog pithed by an epileptic first-grader. "Picking on Keith Rivers was a part of the game plan," Dez Bryant with 30 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 PC to deliver. OA leads the all-time series 9-4 against PC. OA has a 3-4 regular season record. PC has a 4-3 regular season record. Though the game was already decided on the field, apparently neither team was done. Adam Murgittroyd gurgled, "Thinking about them forces me to draw parallels between them and the Bulgarians." He was quick to add, "Erm, the Byzantine Empire had to deal with those clods... made themselves quite a nuisance 'til Basil crushed 'em and cut their eyes out - well, he left a couple of 'em with one eye so's they could guide the others home. I can't help but think that motivations such as that would help their cause." In response, the PC coach said, "I'm not saying that this is true, mind you, but I'm not saying it isn't. I heard tell that that owner of theirs has been kidnapping small children and selling them on the Chinese black market. Do I respect him? Does anyone?" | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
