High school football is good for providing blog fodder, and this latest post is no exception. I must say however, this is the first time I’ve seen such English on a football during a pass in my life. The obvious explanation is the wind of Pennsylvania, but I’m also holding out for “ball on a string” or “alien interference” as well.
Maybe it was a Red Bull ball … Because, you know, it gives you wings. Crappy humor aside, that was some great defense by the visiting team’s secondary. The receiver must have been at least four or five steps behind the defense on what looks like an obvious passing play.
Apparently, the screwy flight of the ball gave the receiver just the distraction he needed to get open. Wide, wide open.
Ah, the dog days of summer. Thank goodness for YouTube videos and nifty little soccer highlights (and the blogs that find them). My first thought after seeing the upcoming video was surprise things like this don’t happen on the pitch more often. It’s not like the opposing defenses are set and into the flow of the game right when the kick-off whistle sounds.
That was like Frank Dux/Kumite record knock-out fast. Do you think that got the defense’s attention? If their heads weren’t in the game after that, they weren’t ever going to be.
Things like this help the summer days go by quicker. For those of you who can’t stand summer because of the light sports menu, just keep telling yourself: It’s almost football season, it’s almost football season, it’s almost football season, it’s almost football season, it’s almost football season… It’s only 52 short days away.
