Didn't these owners (most of whom are Wall Street denizens) realize the importance of competent and judicious regulators - I'm sorry, I mean referees - and that without functioning, well trained experts in the field of play there might be unfair advantage to one set of participants above another? The hedge fund managers masquerading as team owners would eventually have their day destroying the referees' defined benefit plan (costing as little as 3 million dollars on profits of 9 billion every year), but they should have a little consideration for the Scott Walkers and Paul Ryans of the world. Walker was literally pleading for the union 'guys in white hats' to ride in and save the day. Politics may make strange bedfellows but have we witnessed greater mismatched bedmates than a Scott Walker and a Barack Obama both of who weighed in on the travesty that was 'befalling' us all? The greatest union buster of them all - Mr. Politically we may be divided, but the law and order of a gridiron is a sacred bond that cannot be torn asunder. And all we want back from our devotion is a fair contest, a just competition in which players and teams win or lose based on seemingly absolute merit and not the mere suggestion of chance or someone else's whim. It grounds us to its weekly rhythms, we see its players as relentless warriors. Unlike the leisurely pace of baseball which drifts and meanders for a seemingly endless 7 months or more, football gives us the staccato bursts of jet fuel several times a week for a mere four months.

Brandon Reaves, who rushed for 50 yards in the first half, capped it with a 1-yard run.Anyone caught up even slightly in the news flow of the past week could not/can not escape the analysis, the recriminations, the blame, the projected guilt as 'America's game' took on the visceral out of control acceleration of a train wreck. San Clemente, after La Habra took its early lead, scored its first touchdown on an 80-yard drive. He set it up with a 16-yard pass to Fellows at the Tritons’ 11 on a fourth and 10. The Highlanders, who had 210 yards in the first half, opened the game with a 71-yard drive and took a 7-0 lead on 30-yard pass from Barriere to Amon Fellows at 8:32 of the first quarter.īarriere, after San Clemente tied it at 7, drove La Habra 80 yards gave the Highlanders a 14-7 lead with a 9-yard pass to Ross at 11:15 of the second. La Habra was looking good early, scoring on its first two drives. Sears followed with a scramble to the 8 before throwing 2 yards to Eldridge to tie it at 14. The big play was an 27-yard option pass from Keith Jones to Eldridge at the La Habra 26. San Clemente forced a fumble inside its 10 late in the second quarter, then drove 91 yards to tie with three seconds left in the half. I just want to thank God for blessing us with another victory. Our team believed we could still score and we end up scoring. “Once they scored, we said we can still score. “We have belief in ourselves,” Barriere said. Sears followed with a 27-yard run to make it 33-29 with 8:54 to play before throwing the 4-yard pass to Reaves with 20 seconds left. The senior tossed 84 yards to Ross on a catch and run before Barriere ran 38 yards for a 27-21 lead.ĬJ Taylor, who rushed for 148 yards, made it 33-21 with 11:54 left.

La Habra looked to have the game secure early in the fourth quarter.
