Okay. This is a really fuzzy memory for me. And also a demonstration of my crap-crap-crappy football knowledge. So, here I am, exposing my stupidity for all to see. But someone in our class must have a much sharper memory of this and can fill in the missing details.
It was a football game. A really important one. And it either determined that we would get to compete in the state championship. Or it may have actually been the state championship.
And somebody named Todd (Michael Todd, maybe, but I won't swear to it) was the extraordinarily talented athlete who was the quarterback. (If memory serves, he wasn't the tallest kid in the world, but was also a star on the basketball team.)
And was this in our freshman year??
And there were only a few minutes left in the game. Or maybe it was only a few seconds. And we were down to the one yard line. Well, maybe not the one yard line, but it was really close.
And I remember screaming until I lost my voice.
But that's where my memory fails me.
I'm counting on one of you out there who will remember every last detail and can fill in the missing pieces.
Help!!
