The Fighting Ostriches
Beckett Morrow had 127 yards against the Pikemen, who used to employ him. He is the one the young players actually ask, so nobody expects him to say much about it. The fixture comes round again next year.
Across eighteen seasons: 34,653 yards from scrimmage, 506 touchdowns, 282 games. He got to 2,543 once. Not this time. Five clubs have had him.
He turned thirty-eight this year. He is from Tijuana, Mexico. He was the second man taken at his position out of Marchbanks.
The Fighting Ostriches are 9-5 through fifteen weeks. Rico Norwood is in year twelve of it. There is one year left on the deal.
He has never once been photographed smiling on a sideline, and always has.
