Hawks vs Warriors

A toughly fought match: Hawk's defense was strong and actually scored one touchdown on a forced fumble in the endzone. Their offense had a slow start but was strong in the second half and moved the ball on straight runs. Hawks unfortunately had a failing passing game upon which the Warriors capitalized. The final score: Hawks 13 / Warriors 15, the game lost on a missed two point conversion near the end of the 4th quarter.
My friend Gary sees football as a microcosm, a metaphor for life as a whole.
When I was a rebellious teenager I didn't appreciate it that way, but now that I am older, watching my son on the field, I can sort of see his point.
