WEEK
3 - CLAYMORES 35 GALAXY42 (OT)
|
|
2-0 baby and Frankfurt hits town! But we know this will be a hard game, because the Galaxy will be fired up from last week. Plus we hear that the Dragons have killed the Thunder 42-10, so maybe we're not as good as we think! |
|
The "Fans Are Friends" Banner arrived for proper in Edinburgh Week 3! It started off in Barcelona week 1, and then moved onto Amsterdam I believe, before hitting Murrayfield. Already there is no room left for fan signatures! Note the brave smile on Kenny Stats (far left), who was still traumatised by Elway's retirement ... |
|
Cool Runnings and the Cheddarheads! We meet these guys (and girl) out in Barcelona last year on our triple-header. In fact, we've probably made more Galaxy friends from that game in Barcelona than any in Frankfurt. Crazy! |
|
It seems that fans are getting better dressed this season (except us)! This is "Feel The Spirit"! |
|
Holy Cheddars! It's some of the mailing list! The Galaxy fan in the centre is Kat who was a Murrayfield virgin on this day. We dragged her all the way up from London, and she had such a good time she should be back for 2 more games! |
|
"1b" and "Big Harry". Harry is still mad at not finishing all those chicken wings out in Orlando! Harry is the greatest dancer in the league bar none! Never stand next to him at a game and try to do some moves - you just end up looking like a clown with a bit of foam cheese on your head! |
|
Dirk and Harry! Dirk was the crazy guy who helped pick us up from the airport last week in Berlin, and then a few hours later set off for Amsterdam to see the Galaxy play! He'll be back in Scotland for the Berlin game - the only confirmed Thunder fan so far! |
|
Pete, from the Stats crew - cheddared just before kickoff! It would be a busy day for these boys ... |
|
CHEDDAR WEEK 3 AWARDS MVP - Donald Sellers. We could have just have given it Craig for the 3rd week running, but Donnie really deserves it this week. 7 grabs for 141 yards, plus a clutch 2 point conversion. He now leads the league with 19 catches for over 300 yards. "Forgotten How To Catch in 8 Days" - TE Shon Bell. All he caught on this day was verbal abuse from Dameyune. "See you Joey" - CB Joey Eloms's electric 90 yard INT return for a TD with 4 secs left in the first half tied the game at 14-14 when it appeared the Galaxy would go up 21-7. It has to rank as one of the most exciting plays ever at Murrayfield! "Missing In Action" - Most of the defense, especially the secondary - who were probably still in Berlin getting plastered with STV! The Galaxy racked up a record 570 total yards, and some of the Scottish press had the audacity to call the Dameyune the goat for his game ending fumble! "Does Jesse Know What He's Doing!" - If it's getting wide open in the back of the end zone - then YES! If only Dameyune had realised he wasn't 10 foot tall ... "I Never Want To See Again" - A crossing pattern ran by Todd "10 catches" Floyd or Mario "10 catches" Bailey "Big Kudos" - To Super Mario for becoming the #1 receiver in league history. |
|
After the game, we had to consolidate ourselves with some more clowning about. Guy "GameDay Operations" Rutherford had proudly proclaimed to Steve Livingstone that he wouldn't be next. Honestly, why do these folk bother to say this! We could have done this one in our sleep! |
|
We also got a chance to speak to Coach after the game, and congratulate him on being inducted into the Cheddarhead Hall of Fame by presenting him with our pre-season fanzine, while at the same time ripping into another fanzine that had being saying a bunch of bullshit about him. Preston had to apologise for his abusive language! |
|
We also congratulated Scoops for his induction, and his fantastic Beanie Hat. Could it be that the Beanie is this year's thing? |
|
OK so we lost. Big deal - we're still 2-1 BABY! And ripe to knock off the unbeaten Dragons this week! |
