Football Is in the Air

Okay. Let me just get this out of the way right off the bat. This post has absolutely nothing to do with Christianity, the Bible or the church. It's not even an installment of Friday Funnies (which will be coming up a little later, by the way). If you are a regular reader of this blog, it's quite possible that you will have no interest in this post.

That being said, today Webster Groves High School (my alma mater) will begin its defense of the Missouri Class 5 State Football Title. For those of you who might not remember (like that's possible!) or who never heard about it in the first place, the Statesmen's run through the playoffs was punctuated by a quarterfinal win over Chaminade in what immediately became known as "The Miracle at Moss" (so named for Webster's Moss Field, where the game was played).

Check out the video below and fasten your seat belt. With no less than five game-changing plays, it's hard to imagine that the final 45 seconds of a game has ever been more thrilling.
