Worked the chains last night and saw the heart of a lion on display. The SA players were totally dejected and ready to quit when Mr. Valencia injured his ankle. But then football karma reared its head...a soph Gordon kick returner fielded a kickoff from off the ground in the end zone then darted and danced around in the end zone where he was finally tackled and initially ruled as a safety. After a conference the officials changed the call to a touchback. Karma comes into play because the returner can legally do that and the call was correct but it did not appear to have a return avenue so he should have taken a knee. From that point it was game on! SA was down big but began to claw back into the game with Mr. Valencia carrying the team on his one good leg. In the end I got great satisfaction in watching his efforts AND the way the Gordon players responded to him. Before the whistle they still tried their best to hit him as hard as they could but after the whistle they went out of their way to help him up and congratulate him for his effort. It was really hard watching the final quarter and half, seeing this young man suffering in tremendous pain. You, sir have earned a tremendous amount of respect with the courage you displayed.hornkeeper12":22jywxwu said:To the Santa Anna Mountaineers: I saw some of the biggest hearts of any team I've seen this year. Congratulations on an excellent season. #25, Valencia, that is one tough cookie, he could barely walk, but kept on keeping on through the pain. I tip my hat to you sir!
