Meeting the People on the Coast - A Football Game at Warrenton High School!!
Being from Western Pennsylvania, and avid football fans we were going through withdrawal because of the lack of sports viewing on the trip. So the natural thing for men to do was to take in a Friday Night High School football game. We landed in the town of Warrenton, Oregon to watch the Warrenton Warriors play Portland Christian Academy. What a nostalgic time it was as Portland seemed to have the upper hand in talent and size. You don’t believe me do you?? Well take a look:
The Scoreboard
The Stands
The Game
The Food - Sausage, onions, potatoes, carrots, and other? All boiled together to make garbage can stew. (Jere and Van ate some!!)
And The People!!
Meet Brandon Stallsworth, a senior at Warrenton H.S. and DeeJ Hardwick- who is home-schooled and will be off to college soon . What a delightful couple - Brandon’s dad is the Chief of Police and involved in various businesses. Brandon works for his dad between being a student.
We wish both of them the best of luck living the life in Warrenton, Oregon.
Oh Yeah, unfortunately Warrenton lost 35-7 but put up a great fight.
With our hunger for sports satisfied, we said good-bye to Warrenton and headed north toward Seattle.
Comments, Pingbacks:
The Garbage Can Stew actually sounds good !!
God speed ...

12/07/09 @ 06:07 · http://www.topnflnews.com/ The NFL will ask its competition committee to review concerns regarding clinching playoff teams choosing to rest starters at the end of the season, according to a report on ESPN.com.
The issue is receiving renewed attention after the Indianapolis Colts chose to pull their starters from Sunday's loss to the New York Jets. Entering the game, the Colts, now 14-1, were undefeated but had clinched home-field advantage in the AFC playoffs. Meanwhile, the Jets, now 8-7, were still fighting for a playoff spot.
After the Colts pulled Peyton Manning and other first-stringers, the Jets rallied for a 29-15 win, improving their chances in the playoff race.
"This is an issue that we have reviewed in the past," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello was quoted as saying in an ESPN.com article to which the AP also contributed. "The position of the competition committee, and affirmed by the clubs, when it was reviewed in 2005 was that 'a team that has clinched its division title has earned the right to rest its starters for the postseason, and that preparing for the postseason is just as important as protecting some other team's playoff opportunity.' That is the current policy."
