It's tough to root against a team called the Polo Marcos.

Was it just me or was the official trying to stop play prior to the snap on the TD? Looked like he was waving his hands.

I did not catch that. Could make sense with how open that rushing TD was for Amboy.

I hope Mumford has a couple of sons when he's older.

 

[Patrick Devitt]

Pretty sure there was a Gus Mumford on last years team for Polo.

 

[Swansa01]

[Swansa01]

Amboy with a 23 yard rushing TD to start the 4th. 2pt good and Polo looks tired and done.

 

[Swansa01]

A tipped pass interception for Amboy should put the nail in the coffin of this one with only 7 minutes left.

He was pretty into it. I liked him.

 

[Doctor_D]

Was an enjoyable game and the pbp announcer was great. I also had no idea about the amount of complaints at the 8 man level regarding enrollment until I saw the chat. Wow.

 

[Swansa01]

I can see it. Amboy's co-op gives it some pretty good numbers for 8 man ball.
