| Game Summary (Earl Schmidt, NetFL Press) I get paid very well doing something I usually enjoy. There are, however, occasional games that I only report on under silent protest. Let me begin by being brutally honest. BB is quite the unimposing team, wholly outclassed in all aspects of the game by SP. Yikes! BB has just completed a game in which they, proverbially speaking, whacked a fat little leper boy with a baseball bat. To point fingers after this debacle would be unfair given that this most assuredly was a team effort - and that's the only positive spin I can put on the game. Roddy White quipped, "To say that we stunk would be unfair to skunks and unwashed monks, man. We were awful today! Do you see us getting any better in time for the next game, 'cause I sure don't. The guys played with no fire, the coaching was flat, and the playcalling was atrocious. Our execution? Yeah, I'm for it." Shaun Hill said, "It really doesn't matter, I mean, we lost the game. I had full command of everything that was going on out there, just like I thought I would. I mean, again, you try to practice hard to try and prepare you for the game, but when you get in game situation, you have to take care of the little things and I think we didn't do that today SP has decaffeinated BB as though the unfortunate loser were a snail dropped in a jar of saline solution, maiming their egos by the tune of 41-5 in front of a despondent home crowd. SP leads the all-time series 20-17 against BB. SP has a 6-4 regular season record. BB has a 4-6 regular season record. Things went very well for the SP squad particularly on the offensive side of the ball last week as they racked up a combined 282 points, 182 on offense and 100 on defense. Martavis Bryant with 26 points on offense and Brandon Marshall with 17 points on defense were the top scorers. Mistakes dampened the mood around the locker room somewhat. Said Coach/GM Michael Sutanto, "There were some mental breakdowns on both sides of the ball.. For one, Martavis Bryant was as sharp as a sponge today. Doc was tellin' me that he's seen all the telltale signs of... oh, I forget the medical term for it, but basically, he's a screw-up because he just isn't that bright when you get right down to it. Shoulda known when my scouts mentioned that he rode the short bus. As for those NT? They showed all the football grace of ballerinas as they filled the record book with absolutely nothing throughout the course of their pitiful performance. Overall though, the 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. in this game was Charlie Whitehurst. There's no love lost between these two clubs. Michael Sutanto quipped, "Sheesh... just mentioning their scaly hides makes me feel very unclean. They're wretched, infantile little sewer rats and I don't want to get dragged into a discussion about them. Any other questions? I need to bathe." In response, the BB coach considered this when he said, "Every neighborhood has the story about that crazy old man who chases the neighborhood children off his property with a rake... pretty harmless and a bit pitiable... kinda reminds me of our erstwhile opponents there." | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
