Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for February 13, 2017

Which one is the wide receiver?

This is just plain wrong. Elderball is golf.

Let’s see, is this because the receiver can’t run very far, or because the quarterback can’t throw very far? Or maybe because they forget the play if it takes too long?

At least their pants were listening.

Dogsniff

Now that you mention it, aren’t they long in the tooth, not short?

And you go shorter.

Who are they playing against?

“I’ll hit you after you stop wheezing…”

I need to take my afternoon nap now.

That’s about my speed.

Some one wake up the defense we are ready…….oh hang on……restroom break.

That’s the long and the short of it.

Lets see: black socks, dress shoes and baggy poly pants. Yep: it’s the Ballard Street Senior Football and Napping Club. 2 plays, 12 yards and a 2 hour and 7 minute nap.

Meets every 4th Tues in the vacant lot at the corner of Main and Trempletone Blvd.
