As usual, no officials around while the Milford players deliver their lecture. Same thing with Kenzie Hanley last year. Milford players get away with murder.
Maybe Moose and Dory are smarter than we think. Can you really call a taunting penalty if the two doing the taunting appear to be yelling at each other?
Former State Champion Coach Gil calls a sweep to Heather’s side of the field. It could be a brilliant call if she (1) makes the block or (2) it’s so unexpected the other team doesn’t think anybody is so stupid as to use a 150# girl as the lead blocker and Milford scores or (3) it’s a tight end around and yes, Milford scores or (4) Heather gets blasted back into the runner, blowing out his ACL and Milford loses. Tough choices ahead.
A sweep is usually a pitch play, rather than a handoff; this looks more like an off-tackle run. The narration box must be relying on Marty Moon, calling the game with a couple of drinks under his belt.

If they’re swiping right I guess that means they’re into her as a teammate?

wait – I know little about football, but this seems like penalty territory to me.

In all reality , Kdizzle got any idea of what they’re swiping , maybe Milford State Champion mugs or sweatshirts .

P3: Signman has become so angered at not being featured this year he has torn up his sign and thrown it onto the field as a rain of confetti.

Since this is 1980’s Milford and Heather has experience as a student trainer, does she really think correction tape is needed?

Looks like chivalry is alive and well on the Milford squad.

P1-As I said yesterday, we’ve seen this before, payback for a cheap shot and that takes care of it for good.
P2-That isn’t Heather on the end around, since she’s #87.
P3-Some exciting football for us for once. Well exciting may be exaggerating. But why is the runner wearing flippers?
And speaking of why, why are you waiting to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp?

I wonder if Heather is going to put a De Windt-like block on #58 and clear the way for a Milford score. They could reuse the art from 10/17.
