PERRY FOOTBALL


Nehemiah played his first 8th grade football game Tuesday night. I was so excited! He is playing starting quarterback for the A team. We played the Polk Panthers. They whopped our tails. It was awful. Nehemiah played a good game, but our team just isn't ready and our coach doesn't seem to realize that this is a strategy game! It's very, very frustrating. The worst part was the fact that we threw the ball away several times due to our offense running shotgun and the center throwing the ball way over the QB's head! Even when Nehemiah could jump up and get the ball, that wasted precious time causing us to get tackled behind the line of scrimmage. Anyway, we lost 27-0.
Ok, enough ranting and raving. We had fun overall! Isaiah and Malachi played football in the grass while the game was going on. On the bright side, Grammie, Rich, Aunt Vette and Jada all came to watch the game! Samara and Jada were terrified of our Eagle mascot. Very funny. Here's a pic of Jada, Grammie and Samara. Sorry about the picture quality. It was taken at night on my camera phone.
