Now, the Scooby-Doo ending
It was like a cheap reenactment of a Wayne’s World ending. All of Beaver nation erupted at once. With 26 seconds left in the 111th Civil War Matt Evensen’s kick was wide left. But instead of the game ending and […]
The Civil War Football Experience
Even though KBVR Sports was in hostile territory, everyone seemed to be nice. I thought that KBVR Sports was finally getting a decent level of respect. Turns out everyone knew we were about to get hosed. Let it be known […]
