Wishbone Formation

Considering the insanity that has been NCAA football 2007, we’ve been feeling an itch to hit the gridiron for some football of the non-contact variety. (Definitely not tackle, because we’re not that tough. We’re freaking writers.) And if Appalachian State can knock off Michigan, then why can’t we be recruited...

Considering the insanity that has been NCAA football 2007, we’ve been feeling an itch to hit the gridiron for some football of the non-contact variety. (Definitely not tackle, because we’re not that tough. We’re freaking writers.) And if Appalachian State can knock off Michigan, then why can’t we be recruited to a major-college football program? (We do have four years of eligibility.) Oh, yeah, because we’re on injured reserve with that remote-control elbow. Rub some dirt on those couch-potato injuries and head for the Turkey Bowl. The men’s four-on-four flag-football tournament is open to players 18 years and older.
