This tournament had some great players from all over Texas and New Mexico. There were over 500 of players who all thought they were superior. Well, I won my first game in Double OT, then I beat the next guy by 8. The third guy was supposed to be destroying everyone in 2 minute quarters between 30-40 points!!!... I played him and he was Vick of coarse...just like everyone else. I beat his ass 28-8. THen I made it to the next bracket where there was only 50 left standing, and I was one of them. I lost the toss, and he elected to kick.

I lost the coin toss in the 4 th round and he elected to kick to me. I proceeded to score an easy touchdown. THen he got the ball and ran the ball with vick and broke ALOT of tackles. THen he ran the clock down and scored a TD with 10 seconds left in the half. The half came to a close 7-7.

This guy then recieved the ball and proceeded to run out these 2 min quaters. He ran out the entire second half and kicked a FG with 1 second left and I wound up loosing 10-7 to a guy who I know I was better than. Problem was I only had the ball on the first possesion of the game and never got it back. This guy had a great strategy, and I should have seen it coming.

It was fun, but I know I could have taken it all in the end. Too bad when I realized what he was doing with the clock it was too late. He found a way to beat me and my high powered offense.
