Tiger Nation

"Proud to be a Tiger" - Chris Langstaff after the tigers smashed the Jets yesterday in a 49-24 victory.

Here's a link to some of the game photos

The morning started off incredibly different, we had word the we were likely to not play because of field conditions and the rain from the previous week on the Jets' field.  But as we all congregated at our field waiting for the word, we found out the game was on. 

Coach B, Chris and I all road with Jovi to troisdorf, because our bus was KIA from last weeks road trip and the blown tire.  Within about 20 minutes, I was passed out in the back seat and after we got to the stadium, Jovi described the trip as the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.  My serest apologies...

The weather and field weren't quite as bad as I had imagined, but during warm-ups German weather didn't change; it started to rain.  Who would've guessed.  But as game time approached, it started to cease and during the game the weather seemed to cooperate and not hinder either team.

We started early and often, leading 6-0, 28-10 at halftime and a final score of 49-24.  Fun stuff...  Chris got his rushing TD and now only needs a special teams, defensive, and passing TD to get the fab five TD's. 

Also, special guest Patricia and her mother stopped by and we shared some laughs after the game.  Great to see her again and seems her parents, mom this week and dad last week, enjoyed watching the game.


Big day tomorrow around the house with two birthdays, Mrs. "Momma" Klietsch and Anke "Little Sis."  So tomorrow could turn into an eventful Tuesday.

Hello to all the Aakre's, I apologize for not making the family weekend but I was tied up in somethings a few thousand miles away.  My bad...
