The Report From L.A.
Oct. 13
WEATHER: Sunny, warm, low '80s.
We had another solid turnout (18) and
played two games. Some highlights:
CAMEO APPEARANCE: Anthony played
for what seemed like 10 minutes and led one nice TD drive. He then left
to protect his quarterback rating.
PLAY OF THE DAY: David Jordan
caught a nifty 5-yard pass and ran it another 55 yards, laughing loudly
the whole way, to the 3-yard line. It was like trying to chase Chris
Rock.
TRICKY, TRICKY: There were two
touchdowns off the old hook-and-lateral play. First was a pass to Phil,
who is the same motion caught the ball and made a perfect toss to Demond
(who walked in). The second was more improvised, as Jim caught a short
pass, yelled ``Brent!'' tossed it to Brent who scampered in.
PAPARAZZI: At times one side had
eight players on the field. That was actually Brent taking his weekly
photos, with half the players mugging and half hiding their faces.
WELCOME: To new player Sherard,
and welcome back to Rick, who takes a long-distance award for driving in
from Solvang, and who kept pressure on the QBs all day (see picture).
MR. CLUTCH CATCH: Doug is
fast becoming our version of Ed McCaffrey, constantly going up to make
the tough catch.
ONCE EVERY 75 YEARS, PART III:
Cyd quarterbacked white to six touchdowns and only one interception.
That's like Kordell Stewart throwing for 700 yards, returning three
kicks for touchdowns, and being named the Mayor of Pittsburgh.
CAN A QB RATING GET LOWER?:
Demond has thrown four passes this season. He is 0-4 with two
interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown.
YOUNG QUARTERBACKS, TAKE NOTE: Shows
how you should never throw inside on Demond. With Bryan a step
ahead of Demond, Cyd threw a dump pass to Bryan from the sideline--which
Demond tapped to himself and jogged back for a score.
NO, YOU GET HIM: Pete took
advantage of white's confusion on the defensive formation to catch a
long touchdown pass.
NEXT: We're back, Oct. 20, 11:30
a.m. Please bring a white and dark shirt.
(Note: Outsports
co-founders Jim Buzinski and Cyd Zeigler Jr. play in this group.)
