The Bethlehem Steelers hosted their inner-City rival, the Raiders, last night, in an exciting scrimmage. The kids from both teams had a blast, while parents and coaches were screaming themselves hoarse.
During a break in the action, I went for a bottle of water at the snackstand. There, a huddle of young ladies was evaluating the talent on the field, right down to names and numbers. Including my grandson! I pretended not to notice.
I wonder who's on their first team.
Dat, #3, is playing QB this year. Thomas "the train" Murphy, has moved on, and is a name you'll be hearing soon.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
This is quality stuff, both the youth football AND the match report.
ReplyDeleteI thought you said the Steelers had no linemen?
I see nothing here except # 27 (shifty character, him) and others running here, there and everywhere --- SOMEBODY has to be paving the way!

I just discovered I am a naked Racist hater who burns white crosses on lawns.
ReplyDeleteWith this new information in light, I respectfully request you delete my above comment (made anonymously).
I also promise to have nothing to do with the Bethlehem Steelers ever again.
Hope your asshole readers who assign whatever anonymous comments to me they feel like are happy.

What have the Steelers got to do with this?
ReplyDeleteWell, since I am a Racist and everything. And both of my eyes still work. Do I really need to connect the rest of the dots?

It's funny. You and Ron Angle, who does not know how to turn on a PC, are both accused of posting anonymous racist rants. Don't sweat it.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to the Steelers. You are obviously very proud of DAT.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Uncle Remus. I'm proud of him, not bc he is a good athlete, but bc he is a good kid.
ReplyDeleteWhy must you record these young boys at play?
ReplyDeleteGo report me.
