Turkey Bowl 2010

As is annual tradition, we played football on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. This year we had 14 people show up to play. It was cold and windy with a game time temp of 38 degrees. I even got my wish for snow as a few flurries fell throughout the game. We split into two teams of 7, one with Jon Zerbe, Duntin, and other Tulpy alum. The other with myself, Jason Z, Kris, Jason G, Donni, Marco, and Chad. Basically it was the Young Guys vs the Old Guys. The Old Guys jumped out to a lead, but that quickly faded with an interception return for a TD by Dustin and the Young Guys. We traded scores a few more times to a half time score of 4-4.

After half time the scoring slowed considerably. Both teams traded turnovers for a few successive possessions. The Old Guys finally broke the tie to take the lead 5-4, but the Young Guys were showing their endurance and speed and were able to turn around and match with their own TD. With one last possession for each team, the Young Guys pinned the Old Guys on the one inch line of their own end zone after a failed trick play on the kickoff. They sent pressure each time and forced the Old Guys to punt from their own end zone. The Young Guys went back to their proven game plan of running the ball and picked up chunks of yards before scoring the final TD, a rushing TD AGAIN by Dustin. Final Score -- Young Guys - 6, Old Guys - 5.

The MVP Award goes to Dustin. He had 3 rushing TD's, a passing TD, and an Interception return for a TD. Not to mention a few other INT's on defense. Congrats to the Young Guys for their victory. The Old Guys will be ready next year!
