Troy Pincherri is an excellent choice for Cohen blanket award winner. I'm not sure why I got choked up. Maybe I was just thinking of how none of these players had been born when I did my first Mountain Lion game. Maybe it's just that I wish the 2001 season was closer than 8 and a half months away. I thanked the players for 13 nights of exciting entertainment.
Football is a game of emotions.
And when I am watching a game, I go through many of them. Maybe it was because these young men left it all on the field in their final effort. Maybe it reminded me of my son's last game when he and his Lafayette teammates left it all on the field against undefeated Lehigh. They didn't win either. But they had nothing to apologize for when it was over.
