We won't blame you for watching this video about a dozen times as Pasco Pirates RB Tayshaun Balmir goes full "Madden" with a "Spin Move" and a little bit of R1, L1 to juke out half the defense.

Pasco Pirates Head Football Coach Alphonso Freeney talking with his team after the blowout victory 49-0 over Wesley Chapel on Friday October 28th, 2022.

"It's not a surprise," said coach Freeney. "That's exactly how it should be," he added.

"I need dogs coming to work on Monday. It's that time of the season, I get it, it's hard for me too!", coach Freeney stressed. "It's the same thing every week, but we're doing it for a reason.", he said.

"We're going to be high seeds in the playoffs and we're about to make some noise!", he proclaimed.

A glimpse behind the curtain that shows Pirates Head Coach Alphonso Freeney cares about more than just football for these young men, he stressed after a huge TD, "Don't ruin a great play by doing that!"

In what was a great play seeing QB Enrique Matos throw an absolute dime over the back shoulder of WR Kayleb Samuel in the back of the end zone for a TD, something occurred after the play that seemed to catch the eye of the coach.
