The greatest flag football team in Wartburg's history.       Daniel, a running back that also runs track, just printed off the plays for tonights game which is agaisnt a experienced senoir team. Not going to lie I am worried, I haven't played flag footbal since the fourth grade. I don't even know if I completely remember the rule differences between tackle football and flag. My senior year I didn't catch a pass and hardly ever went out for passes. The only thing that helped me not be completely frightened is the knowledge that my team has some farely good atheletes. We have Clay from the basketball team, tall and can body defenders up to make plays. Alex a first team all-distrinct quarterback from Van Meter, also on the track team. Wesley a fast wide receiver in high school that has soft hands. Jacoby a very large man that can catch and is quick. Lastly there is Chad a music major with a beautiful voice. We were doomed to be arch rivales when I found out he played for Bouden-Hall Rock Valley, the team that ended Winterset's playoff run and my organized football career but then I found out he is a great friend.
     It is finally time to take the field on a chilly fall night. They are all seemingly confident with me attepting to look the same. We play some catch to warm up all our hands and more importantly Alex's arm. The senior team that we are playing has the president of Rittorchore as the captain. The game gets started and the first couple plays are drops. Then out of no where daniel rips off a huge catch run. He flies by nearly everone utilizing his track speed and we are rolling. Alex tosses a pass to Clay in the endzone and we are on the scoreboard.
     As the first half ends the score reads good guys, eighteen, bad guys zero. Our team has our swag on now and I feel nobody can't stop us. In the second half I actually have a few nice catches and runs after catch. I realize now that there is no reason to worry about a game that doesn't matter everyone had fun, even the losing team that lost to us by thirty-one points in the end. Even I who hasn't done much physical activity in a while played well. I realize that once an athelete always an athelete no matter what happens I will always have the competive drive to excell.
