First Game of the Season

The squad

This last Thursday was the first game of the JV football teams season. The game was at Fullington Academy in Dooley County. Don't ask me where that is. All I know is it is somewhere near Unidilla Ga. about 20 minutes south of Perry. You know your in South Ga. when you are constantly attacked by gnats. They were ever present.

Along with the gnats came the sweltering sun. I don't know about you, but when I was in high school, it was COLD at the football games. I am consistantly amazed at the support the football players receive from their school. At all the games that I have been to, we have always had as many if not more fans than the home team. It's pretty cool to be a part of a school with such comrodery.

Anyway, the game started and with the first play, we got our first touchdown. That just set the mood. The Cheerleaders went into action. They cheered the entire game, and I do mean the entire game. They didn't just cheer for the boys, no there were crowd cheers that were thrust upon us. You see, if we (the fans) particpated in the way we were expected they would then hurl hard candy or small footballs at us. This brought Bro. "D" and Bayley into action. We all know that Bayley will do anything for candy. Bro. "D", on the other hand, will just do anything. If the boys didn't feel supported they were in a coma.

Well, the boys did a great job and continued to score. They won their first game 32 to 8. All that was left to do was invade Chic-fil-a and celebrate. So that is exactly what we did.

All that's left to say is GO RAMS!!!!!
