Springfield’s 6th grade team won all the games
Cheryl was a cheerleader
I was an unsuccessful pass receiver
a lower-string QB
I played in only the lop-sided games
at the end of the season
inter-city competition
sunny Ohio
warm autumn
big clouds
walking to the Catholic High School field
was a big deal in my uniform
limed for the afternoon game the grass was green
then giants from another universe tossed us around.
