A note to the injured

Frozen vegetables make better Ice Packs than Ice Packs do.
It takes them longer to get warm, they don't melt, and it is much more entertaining to walk by and see your friend pressing a bag of frozen snow peas to their face.

Those of you who read my last entry will note that I am boulder proof.
I am apparently not football proof.

Towards the end of our playoff game, the lineman opposite to me begun to walk back five feet and charge forward with a shit ton of momentum. The intended result was to blow right through me. The first time he did it, he slammed his shoulder right into my nose. The third or forth time he did it, he ran into my leg and injured my thigh.

The man was a monster.
He easily had five inches and at least fifty pounds on me.
Too stubborn to be out for too long, I came back in and kept ending up head to head with monstro. Between our QB throwing four interceptions, being down two men, and a couple good catches, they completely kicked our butt.

As far as I am concerned, I won.
Because, ten minutes before the end of the game, I got my revenge.
Monstro once again stepped back five feet and charged. Instead of meeting him head on, I stepped to the side and hit him sideways into the other lineman. They piled up and we managed to get a good run.

We didn't get a touchdown.
We didn't get the glory.
But, I can still happily say that I knocked monstro and his buddy on their asses.
So, I'm still happy. :)

The Theatre Football team is officially out of the play offs.
But, I can honestly say that I enjoyed myself.

Truly,
