Week 1 Game Summary: Dear Diary: Jason noticed what I was wearing!! I tried to play it cool but I was so nervous. I hope he didn't notice . . .
Soap opera aside, it was quite a first game. Final score was 4-1, I believe; Yellow over Red. Obviously I would have liked a closer game but it took Red a while to get things going and Yellow had a stronger pass rush and the fastest receivers for most of the game (I say that as someone who was on the Red team). Since it was 9 on 9, QBs could run and Yellow's defense managed to make Nick look like Vick when he pulled it down to run. Nick had the year's first TD on one such run. Given his rushing TD and his team's score which was mostly achieved through the air (didn't he also have a pick?), I declare Nick the MVP of the game.
The biggest surprises of the game were Louis making out (after call me at 9:00 to say he was in SA and wouldn't make it), Leo NOT making it out (after RSVPing as a Yes and coming out to our QB camp on Wednesday night), and Brian Zieser having moved back to keep playing (he claims it was to be responsible for a coming child but we know better).
Week 2 Game Preview: Perhaps a tighter game, a bit more scoring and hopefully better weather (cooler, less humid, and especially much less wind) though the long rang forecast isn't promising.

This Blog is intended to provide a communications hub for my Austin Flag Football league which began in 1995. I'm the only one left from the original group but the great thing about this game is that even though we lose a few each year, we also gain a few and the game just keeps going strong.
