I watched last night&...A BEAUTIFUL and moving post! I watched last night's game and was so very impressed. It was marvelous seeing players tackling opponents to merely stop them rather than injure them so that they'd be sidelined for the remainder of the game.True sportsmanship in the best possible way!<br /><br />And, as I wrote on a FB post last night,"Nothing like ISRAEL! Watching the Israeli Superbowl. (My good friend Ruti Eastman's son Dani is the Quarterback for the Judean Rebels. Some other superb players are missing due to service in the IDF.)<br /><br />The outstanding player of the opposing team was the MVP of the high school league.He is an Ethiopian Jew. American football in Israel played by a mosaic of players from many nations including Ethiopia. LOVE IT! ONLY IN ISRAEL!"<br /><br />Yes we can be proud of our guys and Batya dear you can be very proud of your son, the coach of his team as I'm sure Ruti Eastman is of her son Dani and husband the coach of the Judean Rebels. BRAVO! <br />Netivotgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00746343586043134996noreply@blogger.com
