Friday (coda)
Thanks to onlyaly and for their offer of an alternative to our usual Friday night Clitorati gathering. Tonight, we (the three of us and eight others) attended an Arena Football League game: the Utah Blaze versus the Los Angeles Avengers.

It was familiar, yet different. Shorter field. Fewer men on the field. Faster pace. And, it was fun. High-scoring fun. I’ve seen NFL games where the combined scores of the teams never broke double-digits. That wasn’t the case with this game. The Blaze beat the Avengers 76-63. Before tonight’s game, I wasn’t aware that former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Danny White was the Blaze’s Head Coach. His squad did a great job on the field. I may try to catch another game before the season ends in July. I may actually have a Utah-based team that I don’t mind rooting for now. Who knew?!

Added bonus: This game adds the first check mark on my 2007-2008 sports quest to see at least one game of as many professional sporting events as possible.

This was a nice – and different – way to spend the evening… end the week… hang out with friends. Thanks, again, to onlyaly and .

Namaste.
