Crazy legs Double D



Well you know him as Dale, but Crazy legs Double D is his new name in football. He had a few carries, some great tackles (de-flagging) in the game today, but the BEST was his final touchdown. 20 yard line, the cowboys line up, cleats caked in mud, jerseys dirty. Hike the ball is snapped and the QB does a pitch to the right, Dale grabs and tucks the ball and runs right only to find a sea of raiders ready to de-flag him, he spins, he stumbles....looks as if all is lost and he takes off reverses the field of play and had like a 17 yd TD! He was SO excited and is still on cloud 9. From that play on he was a lightning bolt everywhere he went. Duke said it was very much like the 2nd to last touchdown play in the Rosebowl last year when Vince Young did very much the same thing. Or like any Jamall Charles play. It was a great play and he felt like a star. I wish I could say I have a picture to share but I actually was so excited and busy hollering I missed the picture but here is another one from today. Actually, the one where everyone is looking at something....they are looking at Dale running in his TD. So we celebrated by getting a Star Wars BombPop! Not to seal a line from my Brother in Law Troy...but "SO GOOD!"

It was a good day for Reid as well, he played pitcher and 2nd base and had a few good stops, in his T-Ball game. So a great beginning to the weekend!
