The Official BGN Bowl Recap...

 

                                    The Offical Write-Up for the 2010 BGN Bowl......Winter Style!

Star-divide

Well the first BGN Bowl is officially in the books.   The turnout was very strong, considering the temperature, and the pending snowstorm.  In total, we ended up with 14 guys representing 4 states; Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Maryland.  It was great to meet everyone, and the game was a ton of fun…..

 

 

Game Time: 11:45am

Kick Off Temperature:  18 Degrees

Teams:  Green vs White.

The Green Team was lead bye team Captain, Bye Dawk.  (Apparently some guys didnt jump in the picture.)

The White team was lead by team Captain, D3Keith.

 

 

The Rules.  7 v. 7 with a 3 man blocking line.  We played full blocking and the field had frozen puddles and dirt clumps everywhere.   The conditions weren’t ideal.  We didn’t call too many penalties.  We did really well with that considering that we had 14 strangers playing against one another….

 

The Game

The game started off with a lot of hard hitting, long bombs, big blocks and miraculous plays.  The lines were going at it for what seemed like an eternity.   The receivers were running Go-Routes on nearly every play.   The trenches were virtually walls of muscle colliding with one another for hours.  Anyone driving by that would have seen the battles going on with the men on the line would have been sure that we were a semi-pro team, at minimum.

....OK, so maybe that's a bit of an exageration. 

The actual start of the game was delayed by a park groundskeeper kicking us off of the outfield of the baseball field.   He timed it, nearly perfectly, for us to have paced off all of the boundaries and laid out the cones. 

Once we did get the field finally set-up in a "GroundsKeeper Approved Area," the game was underway and alas...some football!  

Well......sort of.    On just the 3rd play from scrimmage, we had a man go down.   Sorry bdawk4ever!   We werent sure just how serious the injury was initially, but it didnt take long before we realized that our new friend was in a lot of pain. 

And to make sure you guys REEEAAALLY understand.....

Somebody Call 911......

But Bdawk4ever did push through.   He made his way to the hospital, and called me to check in several hours later.   He was home, safe, and had his knee all banged up!  Dislocated, possibly more....

 

Anyways, back to football.

The game re-started and took off pretty quick.   The Green Team, led by Bye Dawk was running up points early on.   My Team's, (the White team) offense was slowed on several occasions, including a turnover deep in our own possession.   Before we knew it, the Green Team was up 3-0.  

We did force a turnover, on the ensuing possesion that turned out to be a 50 or 60 yard INT return for a TD.   I forget who caught it....but i think his screen name starts with a "G" and may end with a "reenInBaltimore."   Not sure though!!   

Haha, so anyways, we closed the game in to just 3-1 but that didnt really do much for us yet.   The Green team quickly threw up another TD, and then stopped us again.  

About 1/3 of the way through, the scoreboard was looking pretty dismal for my White Team. 

(Pretend that the scores are on there, and that the Green Team was up 6-2.  Ha.)

BUT, the next 1/3 of the game was owned by the White team.   We created some good turnovers, a few 4th down stops, and begin hitting a rythym with our offense.   We had 3 consecutive defensive stops, followed by 3 consecutive scores to make the game a 1 possesion game.     6-5.

I think at about this point in the game, scoring became less important, and maintaining our health become more important.   The ice on the field was becoming a factor on nearly every play and 13 guys who had begun playing the game nearly 2 hours before had finally started to slow. 

The defensive battle was on!

The teams traded punches, threw interceptions, stopped each other on 4th downs, and continued the sloppiness that we all called football for a few hours.

Steadily but grossly, the Green Team pulled further and further away.  They took a 9-6 lead that they would never relinquish!

All in all, it was a great day.   We had emergency service vehicles, leaping catches, great INT's, big hits, and lots off falling down.  It's now late in the day on Tuesday, and i can just about guarantee that every one of us is still nursing a sore this, or a gashed that.  

Me personally.....nursing a knee that looks like it went through a meat grinder!

A few quick awards....

The Shawn Andrews Award.......Bdawk4ever!  Sorry man!  You may have torn it up, but we never got to see it!

The Donovan McNabb Award.........D3Keith!   He may have killed a few worms, but he also tossed some nasty bombs!

The Jason Peters Award......jalarsen!   He was a one man wrecking crew, but he's one up on Peters; He played both sides of the ball!!

The Derrick Mason Award......01-28-01!   Thats right...a Ravens Fan came up to Philly with me, so i figure i'll give him his due.   He caught some great passes!

The ACTUAL MVP:    Bye Dawk!    I personally did what i could to ruin this guys day, but in the end, i think he got the best of everyone out there.   He was efficient (enough) and got the ball where it needed to be. He let his "playmakers" find the icy patches and bite it HARD!  Meanwhile, he just jogged to the line and prepared for his next play!  Well played.....

So in closing....I hope that everyone that reads this finds a way to join us next time.   There will certainly be at least 14 of us out there, and i would imagine that better weather, and one successful outing under the belt would only increase the participation. 

I hope to see you soon, my friends!

I think he got the actual award on site

He kept reminding everyone how many TDs he had, so it was hard not to give it to him.

Bye, Dawk gets the Marty Morhinweg award for having his team only run crossing routes underneath guys going deep. So whichever the “free” safety would pick, he would just hit the other. Kinda easy really … I kept trying to convince the rushing linemen to drop one back into coverage more often. I think it led to a pick or two.

Very well done write up

Seriously. I love the effort you put in.

You kind of glazed over the pivotal play of the game. After we switched you to QB mid-comeback, and you put us down one score, I stepped in front for the pick that would start the tying 99-yard drive … only to forget to finish catching it and let 1-28-01 grab it for the two-score advantage. That was pretty much it.

But you know what, I’ll take my DNabb award and pipe down. It’s about all I deserved out there.

“How are you doing I am Sgt. (name here)”
“Hello Sgt.”
“Have you smoked marijuana?”
“Nope”
“Have you had any significant injuries?”
“Nope”
“Is there anything else in your medical history I should know about?”
“I was diagnosed with ADD.”
“Do you take pills for that?”
“I use to take Ritalin. That didn’t work, then something that started with a D that just made me angry. Then Clonidine.”
“Oh…Hmmm. Do you still take them?”
“No, none of them really worked for me.”
“Hmmm, ADD is a disqualifier. (looks me over quick) But I don’t see anything that says you are still affected by it. We’ll just avoid that at MEPS.”
2 months later. Army

Update 2

Just got back from the orthopedist. He said most likely I just partial tore the “medial patellar retinaculum” (I think). He felt my knee and said there was no big hole. Its a 4-6 week healing time, during which I have to keep my knee in a brace and very straight. He said I could put weight on the leg, though. However, he ordered an MRI just to be sure nothing else is wrong, and nothing is floating around.

then I’m definitely not playing the next game. Though I’ll bring a substitute instead. And I’ll take lots of pictures and video. Maybe even ref!

We definitely need an all-time cameraman

Most of the fun is playing, but looking at the pictures afterward — esp. if we get a camera that can take action shots — is a blast too.

My coworkers just convinced me to dig up some pics from a snow game that we played five years ago. But since I worked with photographers, the shots and sequences were incredible

Maybe I can bring my friend who is a Redskin fan too. you could light him up for me. :)

I have a Giant acquaintance too. Although he is kinda of a girl so not sure about getting him down there. I have no Cowboy acquaintances. I actually stop talking to people because they are Cowboy fans. lol. Guess that makes me petty, but seriously… How can you trust someone who makes such a horrible decision as being a Cowboys fan?

Very true. A former girlfriend of mine (since married) and I are still very good friends, and her husband is a really nice guy, whom I officially gave my stamp of approval years ago. Well, a common friend of ours (a Giants fan) had people over for the first Giants-Eagles game this year, and this guy shows up with a Cowboys jersey. I was flat-out blown away, and legitimately disgusted with myself that I had given him a thumbs up years ago… Seriously. Had I known he was a Cowboys fans, I never would have given him the recommendation, and I currently view him in a totally different light.

yo bud, thats the first time ive been majorly injured..

ive had concussions, and ive broken things but nothing compares to an ACL tear..

I felt my entire knee seperate, tibia dislocated and went to the back and to left, I felt it tear, I took 2 steps and felt it pop back into place, took another step then was on the field screaming and cussing.. I told my coach to shut the fuck up when he told me I had to cooperate.. How dare him look out for my well being.

Update 3

The MRI was negative, at least as far as any of the ligaments go. I still have fluid in my knee, and the medial patellar retinaculum was only partially torn- its thin but continuous. I just need to keep my knee straight and in a brace for a few more weeks. I start physical therapy in 3 weeks, and if the knee is still unstable, he will go in and tighten up the retinaculum, So its good news, except for still being gimpy.

That's really good news...

Alot of the time the knee cap will just slid outta place causing swelling and will normally cause a slight tear in something like that… I think the Fluid in your knee is just your body’s “healing process”..

Good... you'll be over it soon

When I was 13 minus one month my right kneecap came out of place. After one month in a cast and one more month of recovery I was fine and have had no after-effects at all.
Once you start physical therapy, try to get as much swimming as you can in. It helps a lot.

by Rabbit T on Feb 10, 2010 5:03 PM EST up reply actions  

yeah, I actually swam after my ACL tear because I wasnt allowed to run for 10-12 weeks

so i’d go swim for hours and go as fast as I could… that shit helps strengthen your legs, then I worked with my personal trainer and did these flex bands which are resistance traing exercises.. Now Im running faster than I did before my ACL injury, Im running a 5 flat now, and its getting better all the time.

bdawk4ever start swimming and stretch right afterward’s.. Trust me it feels good later on.

If I'm in the area next time...

Which is about as likely as one of us signing with the Eagles within a month, but never mind…
If the game is flag or touch I’d love to play as well, but if it’s tackle I’ll have to stay out because I can’t risk needing another eye operation. If it is tackle or I’m the odd man out, I volunteer to do some filming and play by play, complete with pre-game interviews, and will help pay the cost of any videotapes and similar material.
