PS- Flutie played for Natick. My hometown team beat Natick after they had won two straight seasons undefeated and we had not had a winning season in years. There was a massive fight that night at the field between Wellesely and Natick kids. This was at least 5 or six years after Doug flutie had graduated- but I think Darren Flutie was on the team.

Darren was only a year or two behind Doug and in the super bowl game I saw (against Brockton, IIRC), Doug took the snap from center, rolled right, stopped and fired a behind the back pass the width of the field to Darren, who trotted unmolested into the end zone.

Greatest high school play I ever saw.
