Check this story on nfl.com about an NFLE game where the Hamburg Sea Devils lined up for the winning field goal only to have the clock malfunction and run down at double time to zero before they could even call a timeout.

Also, the leading receiver for that game (for the Sea Devils) was our own Bobby Blizzard. Seven catches for 78 yards.

You will be very disappionted. He sucked in his last outing and isnt even the starter anymore.

Ran the ball 6 times for negative 3 yards.

The running back i liked was Siran Stacey for the Claymores. He was fantastic. Always seemed to get 3 yards after the tackle. Was surprised he didnt make it somewhere.

The article says 78. :shrug:

Did you get 88 from the game stats? Either way, I'm glad at least one of our guys is getting decent production over there. Is Hamburg a new team?

The Hamburg Sea Devils are a new franchise that replaced the now-defunct Scottish Claymores.

Yes.

Plus I watched the game that was the stat line they gave him at the end of the game.

Plus watching the game I fully expected him to block really well becuase that is what he is known for, and by the way he did do a good job, but I was really impressed at how good he was in finding the open seam in the zone he wasnt really fast but he was very smart with soft hands.

So are five of six teams in Germany now? :confused:
