I just read that article too. I bet they weren't counting on a mid-April heat wave. I hope they have lots of subs and EMTS on-site.

I had heard of this same thing happening with Brian Westbrook's high school team and their rivals, is this the same game? And if the Eagles would let him play in it, how badly would he destroy these 30 something average Joes singehandedly?

He went to Dematha in Maryland so nope.
