Jack of All Trades - Football Style

Last night in Tyson's Sophomore football game he played Defensive Back, Line Backer, Wide Receiver, Whatever position it's called when you play on special teams, Running Back, and Quarterback!  Woot! Go Tyson!  They played against Juab Highschool - and they won 46 to 0.  This is fantastic for them since they've struggled to even score this season!
Since I reported Tyson's 1st game and his disappointing lack of play-time, they've slowly been playing him more and more each game.  Last night He played the entire game!  It was awesome! He made some fantastic plays, and even some funny ones. (Kamron laughed when Tyson blocked a kid, knocking him on his butt and when the kid got back to his feet, he pushed him over again)
Towards the end of the game they had all their 2nd string players out there except Tyson and one other kid got to stay in.  This is when the coaches put Tyson in various positions - he was running back twice (once carrying the ball and once faking he had the ball) and he was quarterback for the last play of the game.  Lots of fun to watch, and his dad couldn't be more proud!  (And dang-it! where was my camera when I needed it?!)
