Rain out game.

Great game on the 20th! Got the news prior to game time that we will not be playing Sugar Grove after the rain out of the previous week. Gabe and I were checking out the stats on Sunday the 21st and saw that Sugar Grove is also 3 and 0 at this time. By our estimate the Tomcats have the number 1 defense. Both Sugar Grove and the Tomcats have 12 points against but Sugar Grove has all 12 in one game.

Personally, I would like to see the Rained out game played; if not officially then maybe a pickup game. Especially if both teams end up with an 8 and 0 record.

I wonder what everyone else thinks.

First week of September

Great week with the Tomcats. Coach Parents meeting was held on the 3rd of September. Coach Malone was emphatic in saying that even in the rain, as long as there was no lightening, the team would practice. Well, the very next night, we had a torrential rain storm. The team loved the opportunity to get soaking wet and run scrimmages. The coach (reluctantly) went for it. What a great time. It took me way back (way way back) to my own childhood.

The team played a great game on the 6th. They were exceptionally coached and played beyond themselves. The Tomcats sideline had a great time.

If anyone could please forward me the name of the team we played today (09-06), I would be grateful.

August 30 Win Over Vikings

Great game. Injury to an athelete on the Vikings in the third quarter. As we left the stadium the announcer verified that he had a stinger and would be fine in a day or two. Still need pictures for the site as the "mud bowl" of 2006 kinda trashed my old camera. 1 out of 5 shots are usable.

Last Game Tie 6 - 6

The Tomcats (clearly the better team) come back in the third quarter to tie.

What I observed with our opponents was the over reliance on the trick play. I am not sure if the Wildcats ever kicked the ball farther than 10 yards the entire season. This one trick approach to the game resulted in The Wildcats’ four (by my count) procedural penalty’s in the second half alone. Oh well, enough from me on this game.

I think we have the best coaching team in the league and would like to thank them all for the time they have taken with the team to teach the game and particularly sportsmanship.

One more thing (rant); why did the Wildcats head coach stop his players from walking the line and shaking hands with our team? He made our squad walk across to his team while they stood still in single file. This does nothing but support my position that we have the best coaching team in the league.

Great season!

Tomcats WIN 22-0

Saturday’s game held another win for the east Aurora Tomcats. In my opinion the most talented team in the league.

Tomcats win 29-0

Both teams wore blue but the only confusion was in the stands. Great offense and outstanding defense.
