image keeps people playing unfair
I don't think people want the image of an unfair playing surface. I think that is the administration's issue. We all want to be at home, we want to be at our house, but if this keeps everyone happy, then we're happy.
helped humble kept kids
We're very humble in that respect. Our kids do not have a sense of invincibility. We're mortal, and we've kept it like that. And it's helped us out.
anyone football kids played tough unfair wants
Everyone wants home-field advantage, but you don't want it be unfair to the kids or anyone else. Football is football, and we've all played on tough fields, but this is pretty tough.
That was miraculous. We've been working on that play for a while.

This league is very even. That's why I tell the kids to only think about one game at a time.

I think everyone noticed where (the momentum shifted). It was getting stopped on the 1-yard line.

The kids are excited and feel good about it. It's allowing them to move forward a little more confidently.
