Just Checking In
There hasn´t really been anything interesting happening here to report. It´s been a lot of the same routine this week. But anyway, I figured I would just check in here and spout off some nonsense to hopefully make someone´s day slightly more interesting. Here are some things I´ve learned recenty:
- Josh Brown was a state high jump champion in high school.
- I have the same birthday as Will Foster (10 years apart).
- Gonzaga Prep is a bunch of dirty cheaters (see following story).
Bullpups forfeit non-league game
Gonzaga Prep, ranked as high as second in the State 4A, has forfeited its 48-7 non-league football win against Tacoma's Bellarmine Prep.
During the Sept. 9 game, the Bullpups used an ineligible player, a sophomore transfer who had been brought up as a practice reward, for four plays. It was self-reported by the school.
"It was an administrative error," said activities coordinator Paul Manfred. "He shouldn't have been suited up. We are looking at it like a life lesson. We did screw up."The forfeit loss drops the Bullpups' record to 7-1 overall, but their Greater Spokane League-leading 7-0 record is unaffected.Well, that´s about it I guess.
Oh, I think NBC is coming in here in Cabarete, so perhaps I´ll get to watch the Irish tomorrow.

I knew there had to be some explanation for the BullPups 41 point win. I'm sure we can all agree that had it not been for the 4 snaps that GPrep's sophomore transfer/JV call-up played, it would have been an entirely different game. Perhaps this'll teach those dirty cheaters a lesson.

I personally witnessed the game and was shocked when the inelligible transfer entered the game. We were on the verge of a comeback and now the whole season has gone down the toilet. What a waste.
