Saving...
darned near killed me. And guess what, we had a scrimmage to top it all off. My second day and I'm banging around like mid-season. Don't let me fool you honey, I enjoyed every minute. Got to play quite alot to cuz they need backfield men. When we came in they gave me a new jersey so maybe I did alright. I'm wearing No. 1 shirt. Nice huh? The uniforms are pretty good. The pads are new style and the uniform itself is ok. The pants are tan and the shirts are green with white sholders. The helmets are white. They'll never replace the "old Blue & White" though.
