The Fighting Ostriches
Chip Firstdown had 94 yards against the Toboggans, who used to employ him. He is 36 now, which was most of the argument at the time. The fixture comes round again next year.
26,140 yards over fifteen seasons. 389 touchdowns. 249 games. There was a 2,710-yard year in there. This is not it. He has done it in three buildings.
He is from Miami, Florida. He runs hot, and everybody has decided to live with it. He was the highest-rated recruit his state had produced in a decade.
The Fighting Ostriches, 7-3, and eleven weeks gone. Rico Norwood is in year ten of it. The contract runs out in the spring.
Firstdown calls his grandmother before every game and after every loss.
