Game 3
Meco Piledrivers 11 - Old Skool 3
In game three, Meco looked to continue where they had left off in game two against a familiar foe. After splitting the first two games against Old Skool (Session 1), this encounter served as the rubber match. Piledriver fans would not be disappointed. Meco came out hot, winning the first three games and never looked back.
The game saw the return of Captain Sanford. Game two's week off served his aching labia's well. This contest also saw the introduction of the final two pieces of the Piledrivers puzzle. Tim Jones and Andrew made their debuts in the navy shirt. Both made fine contributions. Perhaps their finest moment was early in game three. Old Skool had Meco's backs against the walls, five men to three. Two of their top arms attempted to eliminate our newbs with a simultaneous throw... two throws, two catches; Meco five men, Old Skool three.
Geoff Kelley was an offensive force in game three. He seemed to be eliminating two or three opponents a game and was always in late. He also made the astute observation "That ball tailed" after getting drilled in the chest. Evel showed Old Skool what the Meco fighting spirit is all about with an intense wrestling match over the ball. Old Skool's former football player and Evel grabbed the same ball at the same time. What we witnessed after that was Evel being tossed around like a ragdoll as Old Skool attempted to wrest the ball away from Evel. Eventually Old Skool won the ball, but Evel's efforts tired him out.
Rage and the Squirrel continue to be crowd favorites. Rage piles on facial after facial to be certain that he stays well ahead of the field for most facials accepted. He also tends to lose his glasses four to five times a game. Squirrel continues to play to the crowd with speed and clever plays (the double-pump-fake to underhand gentle toss), as well as a surprisingly powerful arm for a man his size.
As usual, Sanford and Wolf offered fine play. Sanford made several improbable catches while the Wolfs cannon again eliminated several players, no matter what the age. In his eyes, an foe is a foe.
Old Skool said it best after the Piledrivers had built up a 7-1 lead. One player looked to another and said "these aren't the same Meco Piledrivers".
2 wins - 1 loss, 21 points

For those of you familiar with the history of our beloved Piledrivers I feel it is important to mention the similarity between a play I made (Road Rage)last night and the famous Cheney showdown from last ses game 7. Same team, same man standing, same result. Needless to say... I am ashamed and I apologize.
Backhaus- out
Six Year Old - 1
Backhaus - 0
Six Year Old - 0

6'5" 450 lbs Punisher - 1
Evel - 0
(but A+ for Meco Style)
no way! i totally owned the punisher. you need to brush up on the lay down, hold on, and get dragged all over the field technique that i utilized to perfection. unfortunately, i was on step 4 of a 7 step process when the punisher asked me out on a date and i became disoriented by such a gesture. thanks for the kudos though
don't be flattered, punisher asked me out too! but the only reason either of us got any attention is because cheney is not playing this session
so who is this sessions Cheney?
what do you guys think about a mascot? Is Mrs. The Wolf willing to dress up?
there is no this session's cheney. trying to fill the role of cheney would be like filling in for jesus. it just ain't happening.
I'm too busy filming meco highlights and laughing at the action. Sorry guys, no giant squirrel outfit for me.
Know anyone who may be interested?
woj will do it... he would make a great squirrel (why has the squirrel become the meco piledriver mascot?)
