Nice upset here by KC. They were 3-13 last year and are about to beat the defending champs. Great game for them.
I went to the Blaze-Voodoo game last night. the AFL has a totaly differnt feel to it than anything I have ever been too. I really liked the ambience.
That was your first game? It really is a lot of fun and when Danny White was here there was a lot of excitement down here too, hopefully he gives you all that and the AFL gains some new fans. Next week's game should be pretty fun.

Yeah it was my first game, we just got a team last year and I didn't go because I was cheap and lazy. yeah White seems to know what he is doing, I've been studying up on the league and he's like an alltime great coach.
I don't really follow the AFL but I will watch more of it this season. I saw Shaun King had 10 TD's last night? That's insane. There was an article a year ago in the Boston Globe about Wyc Grousbeck (Celtics owner) and how he was drawing funds together to get an AFL team in Boston. I love the idea and would definately support/go to Boston AFL games. I think it's a cool sport and really exciting. All that offense is awesome.
Nice rivalry match-up right now between the Rattlers and Blaze. Arizona leading by 12 at halftime and playing much better D than last week.
Damn, damn, damn!!! I have been such a jinx the past month. I talked about their D in the first half and then Utah comes out with a great 2nd half and steal it from the Rattlers. The Rattlers were in control of the whole game and were about to go 4-0 all-time against Utah until the Blaze recovered an onside kick and then scored at the end. Losses like this suck! Wendall Gaines was a beast on D and Bonner had another great game...this team just couldn't get it done in the end and have started off yet another season badly. You watch the game, redneck?
Oh, I forgot to mention the FIVE missed PAT's by Kral. He's usually a very good kicker so I forgive him, but wth is that, really? That was the game right there.
I'm watching the game now, it was delayed because of the Jazz game. I'm starting to really like this league, its really fun. though I do wish there was some actual Defense being played.
Well defense isn't played much but stops are very important so you appreciate them a lot in this league. I am pissed off beyond belief....I can't believe they let the win slip away.

Other than that it's really nice.

I went to the Colorado Crush/Arizona Rattlers game tonight. Crush won baby! I know a player on the team (Brad Pyatt, wide reciever). Good game, but god damn the last minute took forever. They had about 16 tries from two yards away to get in the end zone and they finally did. Gay ass penalties. At least we won though.
