Looks like there’s no shortage of appetites with the players here at Walsh Univ.
A typical breakfast includes about 3,000 link sausages, 120 pounds of bacon and about 90 dozen eggs. … The most popular item might be bananas. Hardie said the kids go through about 800 per day.
… and I thought I ate alot.

After all these weeks on the road, we finally got to see Team USA play. And they did not disappoint! You can check out the stats yourself to see how well we played against France. As of this writing, it is 78-0 Team USA. Check back on Monday for a full photo gallery from this first round of games.

It’s really surprising the Swedish team isn’t competetive in this game. We thought they’d play a little better. Mexico looks great. Check out the tweets from USA Football at www.twitter.com/TeamUSAFootball and live stats.

The second half is about to begin. Germany scored on a 40 yd RB pass, but has been struggling since that score. Both D’s are hitting very hard! Half time stats are available for this game too. Both teams are extremely talented. But Germany DT Bjorn Werner is having a field day. He’s already knocked down 2 passes.
In case you missed it, Canada dominated New Zealand. The final score was 55-0.

After watching the first half of Canada/New Zealand….I have to say that Canada is pretty good. They run a tough spread offense and are just pushing the NZ kids up and down the field. NZ can hit, but they are struggling all around. They don’t look very disciplined, but they play extremely hard. If Team USA plays Team Canada, it’ll be tough.
If you want to keep up, the JWC website also has live stats.
