All-Star Weekend in Dodge City, Kansas!

September 28, 2008

This is a special OIFL All-Star Game commentary by defending OIFL East Champion Tampa Bay Marauders football club owner Brian Clothier. The 8th annual OIFL ASG was played in Dodge City, Kansas at 8pm CST.

Hi folks and welcome to the 2008 OIFL All-Star Game. I’m the guest voice of this year’s meeting between the “Beasts of the East” and the “Best of the West”, Brian Clothier. Without any further delay, let’s begin.

The East All Stars won the toss of the coin and elected to receive. After a 54 yard Chris Peach kickoff, the East brought it back up field for a 13 yard return by Marcus Cribbs. The first possession by the East was unceremonious as they gained 7 yards on the first two downs. On 3rd and 3, Demarcus White tackles Marlin Otis behind the LOS for a one-yard loss. Things didn’t fare any better as Olin Cringle misses the field goal from 52 yards out. I probably would have fired him on the spot, but that’s just me. Roland Long snags the kick from the air and returns it 14 yards before being tackled by John Cornell.

So, in their first possession the East has a little trouble establishing a drive, but Demarcus White makes an early showing for the West.

The West started their first possession with a carry from Dave Bomner for 2 yards. After missing Perry Tuttle on his first pass of the game, Matt Sauk settles in and connects with Ken Hartsock for a gain of six.

Perry Tuttle and Matt Sauk recently handed my Tampa Bay Marauders the first loss of the season. I can tell you this from that experience, THINKING you are prepared for Sauk and Tuttle and BEING prepared for Sauk and Tuttle are two very different things. Let’s continue, shall we?

Electing to go for it on fourth down, Dave Bomner had his number called again and rushed for 2 yards before being tackled by Mike Razorman. The chains were moved as the West picked up a first down.
