I was in Munich for Oktoberfest for week 3 so I missed both games.
Marco’s Orange team won bringing their record to 3-0 and Antonio’s team lost at the hands of North Babylon, leaving them with a sore 1-2 record.
In week 4, Antonio missed his game because it was on a Saturday and the family went to Great Wolf Lodge in the Poconos for Marco’s Birthday. Antonio’s team enjoyed a crushing win, something like 30-0, bringing their record to 2-3. Too bad he wasn’t there as I’m sure he would have gotten a lot of play time.
Week 4 saw Marco’s team face off against Plainview, another 3-0 undefeated team. The Plainview team was very good. They crushed us in the first half and got up to 24-0. Orange did manage to deny all of their extra points. In pee-wee, no-one kicks a field goal. If you do, it’s two points. People just run another play for a possible 1 point. We stopped all of their extra points. After the half, we came back to score 2 touchdowns, bringing us to 13. We had hope! Unfortunately, Plainview went and scored another touchdown bringing their score to 30. Hopes were dashed, but we did manage to score one more after that. In the end, Orange lost 30-19 bringing our record to 3-1. Hopefully we’ll have the opportunity to face off against them again if we make it to the playoffs.
I will try and post some more pictures over the weekend. I also owe this blog a proper synopsis of Oktoberfest, which was awesome. I am going to try and do a Burning Man / Oktoberfest comparison as requested buy one of my friends. It should be funny.
