It took a long time for our Hero to get in the game. But when he finally got in the game, Homer couldn't have written better epic poetry.
 |
| "Hey-aaahhh Coach. You want me to go in? No? You sure?" |
 |
| "Seriously, guys. I can go in. I warmed up and everything." |
 |
| "YEAAAAH BOYIE! I'm in. Gimmie the ball." |
When I saw Nick finally get in the game with about two or three minutes left in the half, I knew something special was about to happen:
 |
| Yeah! Handoff to Nick! He's great at running the ball! Sweet! |
 |
| Wait. What the hell is that? Nick - they put you in at running back, not quarterback! |
 |
| Wait - is that "Goes Both Ways" Steimle streaking down the field uncovered? It is! It is! |
Our staff photographer was too busy jumping around like an excited little girl at Christmas to get a good shot of Goes Both Ways' catch. But take it from me - a better rainbow you've never seen drop into a tight end's bread basket. TD
all the way. Congratulations to Nick on his first Varsity TD in non-mop-up duty time.
After 37 points in the first half, though, our hero entered the game as quarterback for mop-up duty in the second half.
 |
| "Jonah - you been workin' out? Firm, yet supple." |
But in true epic poetry fashion, our hero fell from grace:
 |
| Even though Nick had less time to throw than it took for me to accept a ticket to Thursday's Packers game, he shoulda known not to throw this. Oh well, he just doubled Lincoln's turnovers on the year. |
 |
| Coach J: "Seriously, don't ever do that again." |
