The Teams Are Ready. It’s The 9-Mile War. Are You Ready For Some Football?

It’s finally here and it’s at Bulldog Stadium. The 9-mile war between the Zephyrhills Bulldogs and the Pasco Pirates tonight begins a new chapter in book that has had 54 entries with Pasco leading the series 37 – 16. But as the saying goes, you can throw out the record books on this one. It all comes down to heart. The talent is there and the Bulldogs would like to take a big chomp out of the undefeated Pirates and make them walk the plank right back to Dade City. The fans will be there, it’s senior night and it’s going to be a crisp, cool night. This is perfect weather for football. Win or lose, these are kids and both teams will be playing their hearts out for bragging rights and a chance to advance in the playoffs. Looking forward to seeing you there.
