So Close to 5-0

So our JV team was so close to ending our region season 5-0 this week, but we ended up losing 21-28. It was a really good game, we kept up with them and they the same with us. They just had the ball last and ended up scoring with 18 seconds left. After winning your last 6 games in a row, winning is such a habit that you forget what it is like to lose. Of course I know what it is like to lose a varsity game that I don't even play in, but to lose a game where you only sat out for 5 minutes tops, is quite frustrating. If I forget about the last minute of that game, I had a pretty good game. That last minute though, I gave up a 20 yard pass which put them on the 10 yard line with 30 seconds left.

All in all though we had a really good season with an overall record of 6-3. Varsity on the other hand lost to Morgan 40-0 on Friday and we now play in a 3 ring circus on Tuesday, to see who gets the 4th playoff spot in our region.

We have another 4 day weekend this week, but because of the playoff game, we have practice twice on Monday and the game on Tuesday, I never thought I would start and end my season with 2-a-days.

Web Cam Wonders

This web cam stuff can be really fun, but it also comes with a lot of work and ideas. Jeremy and I have been "video calling" each other for the past couple days about 2-3 times a day, just to try and get things cleared up. It's really fun to be able to see Chan, Samara, Jer, and Kenz and package, in what is close to person. If we get to the point where we can clearly talk to each other, I would highly recommend one. There is a confrence call setting, It's not a video confrence call but at least we could all talk to each other. I will keep you updated on the progress. In other news this week, there is only one more week of football left. JV didn't play this week because Ogden found out that we had a 5 game winning streak and have outscored our last 5 opponents 206-44. No the real reason is because they said they had to save there players for varsity, What. It was varsity's last chance to get into playoffs and they lost 28-23.

While the Traveling team is at the game freezing, guess where the rest of the football team that doesn't travel go. Our house. Brett had some friends over and played a literal game of table tennis. It was probably a lot more fun than I had. It is UEA this week, so our game was on Wednesday and we have the rest of the week off, and with no practices, because it is illegal, or else we would. It has been a nice break. We went to the Utah game yesterday, in the seats that dad gets through work, it was a pretty fun game to watch at first but got old fast.

It Was Supposed To Snow

We have been in a Winter Storm Warning since yesterday, and this picture was taken at about 9:30 this morning. Quite the storm we got huh. It did snow a little bit yesterday but nothing stuck and the sun came out 20 minutes after. JV is keeping the win streak alive with 5 in a row after Thursdays game vs. Ben Lomond. Brett didn't play because he was sick, I won't even to pretend to act like I was sad that he didn't go, I got all the playing time. Ok so I felt bad for him a little. So we get the opening kickoff, drive down to the 25 yard line, and get into a passing situation, I run a corner, I have a corner on my hip, the ball comes to me, I catch it and I look forward and there is the endzone. I hope your imagining this well because you will never see footage on it, Dad was late getting to the game, and of course I got the first TD of the game. From there on out is was a passing game. We had five passing TD's to the on rushing TD. We ended up winning 46-18. Varsity got its first win in a few weeks, squeeking past Ben Lomond 16-13. It was freezing on the sideline.
Yesterday I moved downstairs, and after my first night I give it a thumbs up. It is weird to get used to all my stuff down there. I will still walk into my old room out of habit to get something and see that there is nothing in my room, then Mom makes fun of me.

Brooke and Tracies Arrival

Their is something this week that over powers football once again. Tracie and Brooke arrived! They came in on Thursday and are staying for a while. It's fun to have them ( and the Wii) here. Tonight we are having a big dinner with Will and Kristin and Grandpa Ware. We are having Cheese soup, by the way it is perfect wether for that too. the high for today was around 55 degrees. Yesterday was really rainy. JV this week played Bear River we won 20-7. They had a Sophmore game after ours and Brett was the QB and he got rocked almost every play. Varsity didn't win, that would be two homecomings in a row that we have lost. We even had Coach Butler as a guest speaker to pump us up.
This is was Brett did for two hours, during the first session of Conference.
