Alumni Football

Well, I guess at least ONE former Hornet qualifies this post for this forum. LOL.

If you're in the area, turn on Good Day, Sacramento (CW 31) tomorrow morning. They are featuring the Lodi-Tokay Alumni Football game, part of an alumni doubleheader at Galt High tomorrow night. I'll be part of the show.

Better yet, come check out the game itself. Linden Alumni @ Galt Alumni 5:30, Lodi Alumni vs. Tokay Alumni 8 PM, both at Galt High. Admission is $10. Yes, I'm playing.
 
The Good Morning Sacramento video feed hasn't posted yet. They're up to about 8:30. We were on at about 9:40 through the end at 10.
 
Lodi trounced Tokay 54-0. I totally stunk the joint up, though, as the 2-pt and short-yardage specialist. Almost threw a pick on a bootleg on a 2-pt attempt; needed more trajectory as the receiver had practcially the entire end zone behind him. I should have been flagged for throwing to an ineligible receiver; I guess the refs felt sorry because the ball was so crappy the lineman had no chance at it. I lost track of how many fumbled snaps I had, including one on fourth and one. I picked it up and was held about two inches short.

The good news for me, though, was when I dropped the shotgun snap on an intended QB draw. At that point, I had no choice but to throw it up for grabs in the end zone. I saw red in the middle of the field and just let it fly right before getting lit up. Next thing I knew, the Tokay defender who hit me was looking like the losing tag team on those old wrestling video games because one of our backs had caught that desperation heave in the end zone.

So it wasn't all bad, and we won handily. Next year, we should be on our home field, and I'm thinking of shifting to halfback.
