The Turkey Bowl

Each November Dave organizes the Elder's Quorum vs. the Young Men Turkey Bowl. It is quite the looked-forward-to-event! The men/boys really seem to enjoy it although they all complained very loudly about their aches and pains today at church. The EQ has won the game all 3 years but every year they get a bit closer to beating the old men. This year they only lost by one touchdown so I don't know how long the EQ can hold them off! The pep-talk from the YM leaders.
Josh and Bro. Sheffield (neighbor and bishopric counselor) with Dave in the background. One of the traitors (former Elder now YM leader)

The bishop after he fell. I think he hurt his back! Dave looking like he was playing hard. We recruited about 3 18 year olds that could have still been considered YM but we called them Elders for this game!
Here are some of the EQ team taking part in the post-game wrap up. Dave and Dave working the bbq for the after game tailgate party! The EQ team. The YM team plus a few of the younger boys!

So it's a bunch of old guys winning against the deacons? Sounds fair!
