55 touchdowns and counting

Chip Nutbeam, hot take

Duke Okonkwo TE
The Mustaches

W. Langston threw 3 touchdowns to Duke Okonkwo, who has now caught 55 from him. They have played 11 games together this season alone. It is the simplest thing this offence does and the hardest to stop.

The ledger, after nine seasons: 6,005 yards, fifty-five scores. He got to 911 once. Not this time.

He turned twenty-nine this year. He is from Cinderbrook, Pennsylvania. Around the building he runs hot, and everybody has decided to live with it. Nobody planned any of it. He was cut twice before his twenty-fourth birthday.

The club is 6-5. Silas Beale is in year eleven of it.

He will not step on the painted logo at midfield, and always has.

This feature ran in the paper in week 12 of 2008. The rest of the season is there too.
