Toxic Waste 49 - Sasquatch 39
The Sasquatch were stunned by a Toxic Waste team that easily played their best game of the season. The Waste rushed for 204 yards, almost equaling the total of 216 yards the ‘Quatch had given up for the first five games of the year. George Dubya completed 6-8-0 for 190 yards and 3 TD’s as Three Mile Island improved their record to 3-3.
The game got off to an ominous start for the bug guys when Trotter fumbled the opening kick at their 37. It only took one play for Dubya to find Orenthal Simpson open for a 37 yard TD toss. Carlos Helu then intercepted Stinkwater’s first pass of the game, giving the ball back to the Waste. Steve Colbert ripped off a 73 yard TD run for a 14-0 lead. Muckman came through on the ‘Quatch’s next drive for a 21 yard TD run. Colbert scored again as the quarter came to a close for a 21-7 lead. The second quarter was all defense, and Bunyon’s 27 yard field goal on the final play of the half made the score 21-10.
The second half was a back and forth battle. Colbert scored to push the Waste lead to 28-10. Theodore caught a Stinkwater pass for a 56 yard TD to make it 28-17. Terry Owens scored on a 28 yard pass from Dubya to make it 35-17 going into the fourth quarter.
Badgas scored on a 49 yard bomb to make it 37 - 24. The Sasquatch tried an on-sides kick, but it was recovered by the Waste. Jim Baker then scored on a 17 yard pass to put the Waste back up 42-24. Muckman’s 49 yard TD run brought the Canadians within 11, 42-31. The ‘Quatch then recovered the on-sides kick, and Grog’s 43 yard TD and 2 point conversion had the Bigfoot team down by only a field goal, 42-39. Another on-sides attempt failed, and Colbert’s 40 yard TD run finished the scoring, 49-39.
Steve Colbert ran for 158 yards and 3 TD’s for Three Mile, while Stinkwater finished 9-16-1 for 269 yards and 2TD’s for the ‘Quatch. Dick Cheney had 6 tackles for the Waste while Gopher and Tank had 4 ½ tackles each for the Sasquatch.
