End of Season Summary

Well first of all, please let me apologize one final time for the delay since my last post. As I'm sure most of you guessed by my delay, we ended up losing our home playoff game to the Basel Gladiators. The final score was 26-15 in which our offense played easily our worst game of the season. It was a shame to end the season that way, but I am still so happy to have enjoyed this experience and it is definitely something that I will never forget.

My team here in Austria has opened my eyes to so many different types of people and places than I had ever known in the States. This is a place that I really enjoy being and thus far has been an experience that I will never forget.

Because of my love of this area and the people here, I have reached a contract agreement with the Cineplexx Blue Devils to stay here longer than originally anticipated. I will remain here until November helping to coach the youth team QB's, as well as becoming the offensive coordinator of the Swiss National Team, something that I am very excited about. I will return home in November for a couple of months to visit family and enjoy the holidays before returning again next season to serve as QB and OC once again for the Cineplexx Blue Devils.


Below is a link to a season highlight video of myself. Mike is currently working on a team highlight tape, so when that is finished, perhaps I will provide a link to that on here as well.

2011 Season Highlight

I want to thank everyone who read this blog throughout the season. I have been amazed how many people have been reading every week, even when I wasn't the greatest at updating on a regular basis. This will be my last post for a while, and I will consider writing another one next season if I feel the reading base will still be there next season.

Until then, thanks again for reading!

Go Blue Devils/Boys!
