Bob Barker's Beauties Show Up Nick Kelly's Squad

On the gridiron of Swaim Park in Blue Ash, the football game between Bob Barker's Beauties and Nick Kelly's squad lived up to the hype. The night before the game, it was found, Kelly's squad had practiced their playbook. Quite clearly, the Kelly squad was therefore better prepared, coming to the line with everyone knowing what to do. Furthermore, for show, his team wore shirts with their names and some slogan on them, such as Jenna Heaton's "Heaton Can't Be Beaten" taunt, and McGrath's "Eat My Shorts" written on the lower part of his shirt. BBB showed up with a green/black uniform. All the preparation in the world, however, cannot overcome skill and hustle.

Early on in the game, it appeared that Nick Kelly's squad would have their way. The playbook proved to be very effective. Due to Meiner's inability to pass, there were many runs and halfback passes. Heaton proved to be an underestimated force. Her ability to run forcefully made her difficult to tackle. She also completed a few of the relatively effective halfback passes. Terry McGrath was made innefective due to good coverage. He did not make to many catches. D. Thaler was ineffective due to his lack of hustle, according to Ken Schwieter. He had only one big play in which he made a nice catch over the middle, and then beat the coverage in a sprint for the touchdown. That was it, however. Perrino's small size certainly limited her, but she still made a few catches, but more importantly, hustled hard to make key blocks on the half back passes. Meiners was too underpowered and undersized to be an effective quarterback. She was able to execute the hand offs, but her lack of size made her an easy target for the two bulldogs Brad King and John Tillotson. On the initial series, she was sacked twice by Tillotson. To the credit of Kelly's squad, they were able to pick up the blitz and make it ineffective by means of Heaton stepping up to block and Meiners' short passes.

Kelly's squad was the first to score, but the game did not continue that way. Hasse proved to be the dominant quarterback. His superior range gave BBB the threat to go deep with the flood pass. Indeed, in a play reminiscent of the second play of the Bengals-Vikings game, Hasse went deep on the second play of BBB's first possession to Tillotson, who had beaten Terry McGrath in coverage by a step or two. Tillotson, however, proving why he was not on the hands team, could not reel it in. But things did not always go so. Brad King proved to be a very effective runner, breaking many tackles after a short pass. The teams went back and forth, swapping touchdowns. Midway through the first half, Koening left the game due to a knee issue. She did not return and is listed on the IR. Further examination by the team therapist found that she had a sprained or torn ACL.

As the end of the first half wound down, the only controversial play of the game occurred. Meghan Moore made her first catch of the game on a quick throw out to the left and was quickly met by Terry McGrath. As Nick Kelly came in to finish off the tackle, the ball came out, and Kelly's squad recovered. An argument ensued between Kelly and Tillotson, with Kelly graciously giving in and allowing the play to be redone. The next and last play of the half ended in a pass out to the flats to John Tillotson, who then shook off Terry McGrath's tackle, and then out sprinted the remaining defender, Jenna Heaton in a race to the end zone.

The second half continued as the first, slow and grinding. Meghan Moore, a rookie tackle football player, started to find her game in the second half. She was able to make solo tackles on Perrino, a receiver of comparable size. However, with the boys, she needed help. She did, however, stop a touchdown by slowing McGrath down in the open field, which then allowed Tillotson to finish McGrath off, thus saving a touchdown for BBB.

The momentum shift in the game occurred deep in Kelly's territory, with Kelly's team holding the ball. Meiner's took a short drop into the pocket and threw over the middle to Perrino. However, Meiner's arm strength did not get the ball there fast enough, and Moore slid in to pick the pass off and return it for a touchdown. This put BBB up 5-3. Each team scored once more before the end of the game. The final score was 6-4.

After the game, teams met together to congratulate each other, and team pictures were taken. Terry McGrath commented to the man he was supposed to cover, "You have proven that the disciple is not greater than the master." He then referenced a game of volleyball, which excited Moore and will perhaps lead to the next team game.

Injury Report:
Koenig, BBB: ACL, IR. Tillotson, BBB: Hamstring, probable. King, BBB: Shirt, wearable.

TEAM A

1.   Dani
2.   Nick
3.   Terry
4.   D, Thaler
5.   Rachel
6.   Melissa/Jenna

TEAM B

1.   Hasse
2.   Kloops
3.   Meghan
4.   Doju Tillotson
5.   Schwieter
6.   Bradley King

Scouting Report:
Dani: Small, but speed could give her the ability to avoid the pass rush. Questionable range on the pass.
Nick: A good power reciever, difficult to tackle and take down. Potentially team MVP.
Terry: A potentially good reciever at steaking downfield for the deep pass. His effectiveness, however, is dependent upon the ability of Meiners to make the deep pass. His lankiness may make him easy to take down. (Update: A biased scout says he is actually bad at football.)
D Thaler: Another power reciever.He will contend with Kelly for team MVP.
Rachel: A reciever of unknown ability. She could be underestimated, leading to easy first down passes to her.
Melissa/Jenna: Melissa, in an exhibition game, was seen making some nice catches. A potentially underestimated reciever. Jenna's height may make her a good tight-endesque force, good for first downs.

Let's go B!

The next week will be easy, except for 12:30-1:40 (Calculus exam). After that, flying, Moeller X football game, regionals, and the Packers-Begals game. (I'm going. )
The ND game was sweet. The stereotype is true; ND girls are ugly.
The Halloween party will be interesting. Some people's costumes (or lack thereof?) will be funny.

Ahh, what a break! 6 days of no school!
I:
did my homework at my own leisure.
finished college applications.
got accepted into Purdue's reportedly very selective flight school. [Pssh!] (I'm just that hot.)
got a lot of sleep for the league meet on Saturday.
ran a P.R. (18:56)
bought my first Bengals shirt.

Unfortunately, I did no flying, dang weather.

Those dang enviromentalist wackos claim the Chariot is "releasing too many nitrous oxide particles into the air." They obviously do not respect the Chariot.

We have two updates to the "Post of Crap...."
Find a guy who calls u beautiful instead of hot, who calls u back even though u just hung up on him,who thinks u are perfect even though he knows the worst thing about u,who will stay awake just to watch u sleep. Wait for the guy who kisses your forehead,who wants to show u off to the world when u are in a t-shirt and sweats,who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup,one who is constantly reminding u of how much he loves u and how lucky he is to have u, the one who turns to his friends and says thats her

Pick her up and pretend your going to throw her into the pool...she'll scream and fight you but secretly she'll love IT! Hold her hand while you talk to her, and hold her hand when you drive. Tell her she looks pretty. Look her in the eyes when you talk to her. Protect her and tell her dumb jokes....tickle her, even if she says stop. Dance with her good or bad. When she swears at you, tell her you love her. Let her fall asleep in your arms and you fall asleep in hers. *When youre with your friends, treat her the same, dont ignore her. Get her mad, and then KiSS her. Tease her, let her tease you. Stay up with her when she is sick. Kiss her forehead. Let her wear your clothes. Kiss her in the rain. And when you realize you love her, tell her.

Here is the "Post of Crap, Trying to be Passed Off As Sentimental, Romantic, Cute Sayings."
I know there's at least two others out there, IM them to me, and I'll post 'em all on the wall of Hate.
