Opening Day
There is nothing like opening day no matter what sport is, but it is something special when it comes to Electric Football. While we do not get to actually step on the field, nor smell the newly mowed grass, nor feel the excitement of the crowd, the butterflies are still there.
The last minute tinkering with your team - a few extra passes, a few extra kicks, just making sure that everything is the way you want it to be. Thinking about your opponent and what new wrinkles he may throw at you this year - what new wrinkles you may have for him. It is all good.
Well I'm all packed up and ready to hit the road - I've been looking forward to starting the new season and seeing my league mates. While we play to win, the fun and fellowship is what makes this all worthwhile for me.
I would like to thank Ed Roche for finding 2 new coaches to join our league and thank you to "the other Ed" in the previous post for the kind words.
I wish everyone a great day and hope we all get to enjoy a Patriot-Colt game this afternoon that lives up to expectations.
