Taft vs Simeon
I was at Gately a few years back for a Taft vs Simeon tilt. Ref brings the teams out for the coin toss. Coin toss goes fine, ref goes through his standard... this team receiving, this team kicking stuff...Captains and coaches return to the sideline....Taft kick team heads out on the field. Referees getting in place for the kickoff....Then...Simeon heads for the locker room. No kidding. Just rolls into the locker room like it's halftime. No urgency. First, everyone is confused...like did they miss something? Taft coach is losing his mind standing next to the ref at midfield. Taft kick team still on the field. Ref looks at the Taft coach, shrugs his shoulders, and walks away. No kidding. Taft guy losing his mind just standing there alone at midfield. Refs don't do anything, in fact, they just huddle on the Simeon sideline... Five minutes later, Simeon comes out, sets up the return like nothing happened. It was crazy. Never got an explanation as to what happened from the announcer. Don't remember much about the game, but the Taft coach standing there alone at midfield just losing his mind, was pretty amusing.
Taft in the upset!
Bonus CCL pick!
Fenwick vs St Larry
I don't know anything about either of these teams, except Fenwick is in Oak Park, and St. Larry sounds like the patron saint of hammering Chicago dogs and Old Style. St. Larry is what Chicago needs. He is Chicago.
Hot dogs and Beer! St. Larry!!
