Victory!
Talking about surprising news! My old high school football team actually won a game last night. Prior to last night’s game against A-C Valley, the Punxsutawney Chucks had little losing streak of 14 games in a row, dating back to November 3, 2006. That’s right… they didn’t win a single game in 2007.
Last night’s win was such an accomplishment that the team literally dumped the water jug over the coach, as though they had won the Super Bowl.
It’s always fun to read the newspaper’s account of the games each week as they try to put some sort of positive spin on each loss. I laughed out loud when I read the story from last week’s game because they were actually celebrating their closest loss in recent memory. Of course they still lost, but it wasn’t by the usual double, triple or even quadruple-digit margin.
So they actually won last night’s game 32-8, which can only mean one thing: A-C Valley must stink in a remarkable fashion.
