Hmm…
We had our third flag football game tonight. Against the team that we were supposed to beat really bad. But we lost. And it made me angry.
First off, only six people showed up. Seven are supposed to be on the field at one time, and most teams have a fair amount of subs that rotate in and out as well so you don’t get too tired (cause you play both sides of the ball). The other team had around eleven players.
Even thought it was six on seven and everyone was completely drained of energy by the end, we still played them relatively close. We were ahead at half 6-0. Then we ran out of gas and ended up losing 26-12. I had five receptions and one TD catch, so it wasn’t a bad day personally…
The other reason it stunk was that they were all jerks. They complained about every call, played dirty, and just weren’t vey good on top of it all. The ref actually stopped the game and yelled at them once about their attitudes. He apologized to us about the unfairness after the game.
Oh well…there’s always next year.
