Actually, Connell was the 1A State Football Champ this year. They are more known for their football team since I believe they have been to the title game the last three years in a row. Also, both of these boys in question are football players, so I would not say crappy. One of the kids in the film (I believe the heavier kid) was selected as an all state Offensive Lineman. If you are an all state lineman, you've got to be a pretty good athlete with good feet. I don't really see him attempt to move his feet. I see him raise his arms up, then tomahawk them down. If not flagrant foul then I would say intentional. No attempt to really go for the ball. From my understanding, the film wasn't really intended to show how dirty the Connell kids played, rather the lack of control the officiating crew had. I guess the SCAC league officials have been somewhat crappy the last couple of years.
