Some of you already know I get involved with my son's youth football league. Today was his fifth season game, and they won... barely. Today was a lucky victory. <br /><br />Defense was very strong... the opposing team had a net yardage loss instead of gain. In fact, defense only gave up one first down. But that was defense, on which my kid plays seldom (though when he did, he pulled off 2 sacks). They don't like to have him play defense even though he's very good at it... he's the quarterback.<br /><br />Offense, however, was totally carried by defense. We fumbled four times... my son threw an interception... we could barely move the ball on a single offensive play. One lucky play resulted in a break-away run that gave us a single touchdown, our only points in the game, giving us a 6-0 victory.<br /><br />So it's a win... yay!! Fun to watch too. But now I have to go practice flat passes with my son and keep that ball from fumbling!<br />
