All-Stars Go Down 48-7 in Tough Opener


Week 1 started out rough for the '08 All-Stars. After a strong off-season the All-Stars went into season #3 with high hopes. SCAS felt confident going into week 1 against the Regulators, a team that they know all to well. Formally know as "The Force", The Regulators and SCAS have a rich history of flag football excellence. 2 playoff teams meeting in the first week is a sure sign of a hard fought intense match-up. In that last meeting of these two titans, The All-Stars held the league leading Regulators to a season low 200 passing yards. The Regulators must have a good memory because they looked to pass long and often, and try to erase last years poor performance.
-
In the first possession of the game the Regulators went deep on the first play of the game and came up empty. Then in a move that seemed to repeat itself throughout the game they went deep again. They scored on the next play and put the pressure back on the All Stars. The All Stars answered with a long drive that ended in Frank the Tank's lone TD pass. And it would prove to be the All-Stars only score.
-
It was a gritty defensive performance by the all-stars but not enough to stop the Regulators. With a final score of 48-7 it was obvious that the SCAS defense needs some work.
"We really didn't show up today. I think that the Coach was unprepared and our game plan was crap." This according to Omega, who had a decent game with 8 catches for 158 yards. Cheese added "I really don't know what happened. One minute we were tied the next we were down by 30." Not to be left out, Weensie added "I think we need a QB change. I don't know if you saw it but our QB might have been drunk. I don't know for sure but I'm just saying."
-
Coach Dan was not available for comment after the game. According to his staff he had a "league meeting" to get to.
-
The All stars take on "The Skinny Fat Guys" next week and look to get back on the winning track.
