Last year Danny Woodhead gave Dallas fits going deep, going across the line and then on out routes. More of the same this night. It was indeed disheartening to see the number of gaping holes that allowed the Chargers to go 14 for 16 for 243 yards in the air and grind out 152 yards on 42 touches for two scores in a 27-7 victory.
On the players side QBs Trevone Boykin, Matt Joeckel, DE Terrell Lathan, DE James McFarland, S Geoff Hooker, and OT Haalapoulivaati Vaitai made themselves available to the assembled throng.
FCDallas also welcomed the return of Fabian Castillo. Away for four games due to a suspension. his presence was timely and welcomed as the RedFor90 Team Pareja Brigade successfully earned another three points in an entertaining 1-0 win at StubHubCenter.
The news was better in the other two games with the 1st place Green and Gold team. It only took two months but Brett Oberholzer was finally rewarded for his hard work on July 28th with a four homer party by Chris Carter, Jason Castro, Mark Krauss, and Matt Dominguez in a 7-3 victory.
To my Texas brethren I also remind you that the man who replaced Thurman behind the plate after that crash went on to manage here in Arlington in 2001 and 2002. His name was Jerry Narron. Even he can't talk about that day without getting emotional.
