The HHEFL salutes the new 2009 Miggle Champion-Jim Davis.
The 2009 Miggle Convention in Chicago was simply one of the greatest Miggle conventions of all time and after 15 years of trying, the time has come for Jim Davis of Detroit Michigan. In one of the greatest Miggle Championships of all time, Jim Davis made the most courageous call in electric football history. After two days of intense competition, 50+ coaches and high level competition, it came down to Norbert Revels and Jim Davis for the title and overtime...to the highlights we go!
It was a great defensive game, as both coaches moved the ball in the first half, but neither could put up any points on the board, as it was a 0-0 tie at halftime, but the second half would bring big plays. Jim Davis scored first and went up 7-0 midway through the second half. But Norbert Revels got a huge pass play late in the half and tied the game at 7 forcing overtime. Norbert and his Kansas City Chiefs got the ball first in Overtime and got off to a rocky start. Jim Davis and his Oakland Raiders came through with two big sacks that forced a 3rd and 25. Norbert converted for a first down, following a long pass play...that lead to a Chiefs score and extra point to make it 14-7 Chiefs. But Jim Davis was not to be denied...as the Raiders drove down into the redzone and scored on his possession in overtime. The play of the year and maybe all time came next, as Jim Davis elected to go for the two point conversion to end the game...one way or another. With the championship on the line, he went with a college full back field formation. Norbert countered with a tight defensive lineup to stop a run up the middle, but Jim went wide. He gave the ball to the outer back on the left side and he ran a perfect sweep to the left...the result...touchdown and a championship for Jim, as the crowd went nuts! Final score Raiders 15 Chiefs 14.
The HHEFL salutes Jim Davis on his championship and Norbert Revels for one game for the ages. The HHEFL also salutes Michael and Delayne Landsman for hosting the Miggle Convention. The convention weekend was a complete success. From the Welcome Dinner...to the main tourney...to the MFCA/Miggle Skills competition...to the Jr. and Sr. Spark Bowl...it was a great weekend.
We look forward to next year...long live football!
