Comments: The Evil Monkeys and Drago found themselves in unfamiliar territory...especially in the third quarter when it seemed like every couple minutes these sounds were echoing throughout the stadium... http://www.birds.cornell.edu/AllAboutBirds/audio/Common_Nighthawk.html It was a third quarter nightmare that Drago hadn't experienced since Rocky IV. They don't call these birds "bullbats" for nothing. Boston very well could be on the verge of a #1 spot...will certainly make it interesting in the polls.
Post game interview's with the Nighthawk secondary:
bhall43: "Explain to me what that moment was like when you intercepted Drago and took it 47 yards to the house?"
Pawar: "Well Hallzi, the male Common Nighthawk has a dramatic booming display used during the breeding season. He flies around at a moderate height, then dives straight toward the ground. Somewhere just about two meters from the ground he turns upward. At the bottom of the dive he flexes his wings downward, and the air rushing through his wingtips makes a deep booming sound. The dives are directed at females, young nighthawks, intruders, and even people. I just translated this on the football field."
bhall43: (perplexed look on face) "Ok? Ballhawk, same question as one drive later, your 34 yard pick six stuck the final dagger into the Monmouth faithful, run us through your emotion at the time."
Ballhawk: "You see Hallzi, Nighthawks are birds of the Nightjar family. Nightjars are sometimes referred to as goatsuckers from the mistaken belief that they suck milk from goats. That explains my emotion when I ran that one back all 34 yards to the endzone. I felt like I just sucked the milk dry from a goat."
bhall43: "Wow...interesting...well, there you have it folks...the milks gone dry...this has been bhall43 reporting on the sidelines of the USA Pro Championship."

*eyeroll* Tpat are you going to start bragging because Boston won a close game? We all know the East has good teams as well but the West is a little deeper.
