Well, well, well. The smack talk between THE DRAGONS and the Hazen HORNETS is over and the ball has been snapped the last time. Is there any wonder the THE DRAGONS came out on top. The score was 45 to 0. That's right 0. The under rated HORNETS found out that THE DRAGONS  are a for real team. We are not over rated. We hit hard and go long.

Now tonight  we were our own worst enemy but we got past that. However I said I would get on here and give props to THE HORNETS. They have a good group of boys and some of them are tough we were just too much for them. Lisko #66 great athlete. This kid was used for every thing and he is big. Ask him about trying to pull down #12 for THE DRAGONS. Ask any of them about the hard hitting DRAGONS.
Now I have to say also I talked to some the Hazen people and they were some of the nicest people. Hope you guys had a good safe ride home. Also let us know about the kid that the ambulance came for. Hope he is ok. Also the team played with honor and good sportsmenship!

By the way, What is that crazy punt/ under handed pass thing you guys did on fourth down? I've never seen that before. Trying to draw a pass interference call?

Now I can't help this were are you Blaze, Fence Jockey? You guys have talked a lot of the smack about hitting the southern boys in the mouth. Now that's over what do you have too say. The only ones that got hit tonight were THE HORNETS. If you guys play in the toughest conference in the state then you need to regroup. Just giveing you a hard time boys.


Friday night will come and THE DRAGONS shall follow, for their victims no football tomorrow

Dose anybody remember this game? Remember the fake punt? Iknow this was a long time ago.
