That's so true, UGLY, better than a 40 point blow out like predicted by most people here
Little man #28? Our #28 is 6'4 220 We kicked a guy off from last year who had 28, he isn't on our roster, and if it's the same guy, I never want him back He doesn't even live in Elko anymore that I know of.
Guess nothing better to do in Elko than pretend your a player on a crappy football team.
Sorry you went thru that, does suck getting past idiots like that, but that isn't how the actual team is
Since your stuck in Elko all the time, maybe meet the team or hang out with someone, teach us the magic of AAA. Don't just blast everybody.
Perception does suck sometimes, can't make everyone happy, especially with idiots like Lil 28

There is nothing funnier than watching your wife play Grand theft auto
This weekend I was at home here in Elko, NV so I figured I'd use the free ticket to go check out the Sting @ Warriors game. That was a LONG three hours of my life that I'll never get back. After watching that game I am perfectly ok with our 5 team AAA. Games against either of those teams and our starters would be taking the pads off at the end of the first quarter. Ugly! I won't say names but two Sting players agreed with me on that last night when we talked about it.
So after that game ended I came home to eat when I get a text from some Sting guys, "We are staying Elko. Come down to Stockman's". All the convincing I needed. HaHa!
We all meet up and after grabbing a bite to eat and a little blackjack people wanted to do something a little more fun. "I'd do a karaoke bar!" said one guy. Messinger's wife, "Yeah! Let's do karaoke!". Well.... We ended up at The Horseshoe. The Horseshoe is a dance club/dance club.... If you know what I mean. Half dance floor, bar & pool tables and half..... Well you know. Single moms and college students working their way through school?
So we are all standing around talkin and having a good time when in walks a young man wearing..... His Elko Warriors jersey. The laughter was so real! Out loud laughter in his general direction. So he struts out to the dance floor with his lady and starts dancin around. After a solid three songs of gettin his dance on he suddenly developed a limp as he exited the dance floor. I shouted, "Oh snap! He hurt his ankle dancing!" Guys laugh a bit and we go back to hanging out. After a bit someone says something bout the kid in the jersey. I said, "I'm gonna go ask him what team he plays for and if it's college or something." Sting guy, "You're going to do what?! You're crazy man." I didn't see any harm in it. I like the RMFL guys that talk it up to make themselves look cool. The following is the conversation I had with this young fella....
Me: Hey man, what team's jersey is that? #28: *clenches fists and puffs out chest* It's football bro! Me: Well I know that. Like, what team is it? #28: It's the Elko football team! Me: Elko team? Like college?! #28: *puffs out chest a little more and leans toward me* AA semi pro football bro! Now back the fu** off! Me: Lighten up little guy (he was a good two inches shorter than me, I'm 5'8") I just wanted to know why you're wearing a used football jersey to the club. #28's girl: Calm down baby. I'm sorry mister. He has a broken ankle and is upset and in pain. Me: He can dance and walk on a broken ankle?! That's incredible. So when you play guy? I wanna come watch. You any good? #28: I'm not talkin to you bro! So you better get the fu** out and step off!" Me: You're silly guy, good luck with that ankle.
He stood there fists clenched and chest huffing and puffing for a good two minutes while his girl tried calming him down. He left shortly after that. Here is what I don't get, a stranger that could have known nothing about asked about his team and rather than explain it and possibly get a new fan of the team, he decided to react that way. To each his own I suppose. Good on ya #28. Douche. No wonder people around here here such a negative perception of the team.
When I walked back over to the group of guys they were all laughing and wanting to know what he said. Told em, we got a good laugh.
Quote of the night: "It would suck to be the fat friend man. Your cute friends always getting picked up and you're just.... There. I want to go dance with her to make her feel better. Not enough to actually do it but I thought about it."
Shout out to the Sting guys. Good dudes. Even the dude that told me at the game he hates the Shock cause we are "*******s" and out QB talks too much and isn't that good. And someone from that team got some bar ransoms back at their hotel room I heard!!!! That's what RMFL road trips are all about fellas. Good luck this year.
This could be just me, but it seems that if things were being shouted and laughter was coming his general direction from your group that may very well set the tone for a hostile encounter when you approach him later. I would hope that anyone on our roster would not act so foolishly without having grounds to do so.
Game was ugly, no doubt, and the attitude displayed by this random kid wearin a Warriors jersey doesn't seem to fit the rest of the team's demeanor. We had some chippiness during the game but that was left on the field. I also stayed the night in Elko after we played and went to eat afterwards, durin which some guys from the Elko team came in the restaurant. I was wearin my Sting hoodie and was greeted with a pat on the back and the standard "i don't know you but here's some mutual respect" head nod. Being a first year player, this was a great experience from start to finish for a first game. Can't wait for the rest of the season...Go Sting.
Good times Hoop! I didnt even know u went up and talked to that douche! Crazy. Im like 5'7" on a good day and he was about my height for sure. Wearing a green Warriors jersey, not even the color that Elko wore that night. RMFL road trips=crazyness!
