RFL
The RFL began one afternoon in the middle of September 2022. Josh Morales and David Shonka from the original Team Pine Cone challenged Tucker Jamison along with former Team Rabies to a football game at recess with an undisclosed bet. The loser would pay. Everyone made their way down to the field. Nobody was going to accept defeat. The stakes were high and the expectations low. But, the outcomes that came were prodigious. And this. . .was the start of the RFL.

News
12/21/22 As the dust settled on the RFL championship game two things became apparent. Team Rabies had shocked Team Pine Cone on the last play of the game and ultimately stolen the championship. And for Josh Morales and Team Pine Comb it meant the end of a winning streak that had begun in September and lasted until early November. Here are some of the key moments from the 2022 RFL Championship.David Shonka stepped under center with six plays remaining to win the championship as they were down by six points. The pressure was on. Team Pine Cone knew what to do in their final drive and who to go to. A quick incomplete pass led to a 2nd and long for Team Pine Cone, but on the next play, Shonka connected to Morales in the open field, and he took it all the way up to the Rabies 20 yard line. On 3rd down David connected with Morales again but Tucker Jamison tagged Morales at the 2 yard line. 4th and Goal at the two yard line Morales took the QB position and had the game on the line. Taking the snap and rolling to the corner of the end zone nothing was open and as the blitz came from Willy Lamar, things looked doomed for Team Pine Cone. But with the season on the line, Morales lofted a throw off his back foot to David Shonka in the end zone. “I just thought to myself at that moment, screw it, Dave is down there somewhere.” As Shonka came down with it, pandemonium ensued. Morales knocked in the extra point to take the lead for Team Pine Comb. With two plays remaining Tucker Jamison had to make a play. Willy Heineke threw a short pass to Jamison who made the catch about 40 yards out from the Pine Comb end zone. It was now all or nothing time for Team Rabies. 4th down. One play for greatness. Sam Johnson took one of his few snaps at QB for Team Rabies and launched a pass in the direction of Jamison. Two things happened in that moment. One, Morales realized that Jamison had the position to catch the pass, so he pulled Jamison down as the ball went into his hands. Two, The pass bounced off the hands of Jamison and went incomplete. But the pass interference penalty had cost Team Pine Cone more than they realized. Jamison had been short of the end zone, even if Jamison had come down with it, the game would have been over, and Team Pine Cone would have won. The penalty brought Team Rabies down to the five yard line. At the five yard line, Willy Lamar took the snap and looked in the direction of Jamison again, but he was covered, so Willy made a quick decision and swung a dart into the corner of the End zone where Sam Johnson was wide open. Team Rabies had done the unthinkable and upset Team Pine Cone for the RFL championship.“It’s definitely a tough loss to get over, but back to work, we got work to do, Team Pine Cone is a winning Franchise and we just gotta keep working.” -Josh Morales. It was a painful loss for Pine Cone especially after all they have accomplished this year. It was an extremely good season, but some poor defensive mistakes cost them when it came down to it.
