Video: Texas Middle School Pulls Off Miraculous Touchdown

[SecularMotion]

In the history of football trick plays, this gotcha play by Driscoll Middle School in Corpus Christi, Texas, ranks as an all-time classic.

What makes it work is the deceptively simple walk-up and how nonchalant the quarterback is as he takes the “snap” from the center, calmly walks through the offensive and defensive lines, and proceeds to scamper 67 yards for the touchdown.

If your first thought is Why don’t more teams try this?, your second thought should immediately be Well, no one else will try that again. Indeed, Driscoll Middle School owns this play, now and forever.

3. Funny but...

Really cheap to teach this kind of crap to middle schoolers.

4. It's not just a football play--it's a metaphor for life!

A reminder that it can be too easy to overlook the screamingly obvious.
