VICTORY CASINO CRUISES

Port St. Lucie, FL.

February 4, 2012

     This past week the Orlando Rage introduced their newest sponsor, VICTORY CASINO CRUISES then promptly rolled a "lucky 7". 

    Since the 2010 season the Treasure Coast Bobcats and the Orlando Rage have met seven times and the Rage have garnered a 7 and 0 record in the pairing. The the head-to-head record, however, does not reflect the rivalry as one ended in an overtime win and several of the others were decided by less than one score.

     2012 was no different.

     The Rage were seeming to take control of the game late in the first half. With a 14 to 7 lead with just minutes left in the half the Rage were within striking distance of a 21 to 7 halftime lead when the Bobcats defense stripped the ball from Rage WR Jimmy Rose fumble returning it to the Rage 5. Several plays later the Bobcats scored.

     Knotted at 14 at the half.

     The Bobcats capitalized on the late half surge and quickly put up 10 more points in the third quarter while shutting out the Rage offense. With the score Bobcats 24, Rage 14 in the fourth quarter the Rage mounted a comeback.

     With less than eight minutes left in regulation the Rage scored on a short run by RB Levi Raines making the score 21 to 24.

     The two battled back and forth for field position until the Rage got the ball near mid-field with under five minutes left.  The Rage then drove the distance when Raines punched in the final score of the game with 1:05 left on the clock. The drive was highlighted  by a crucial fourth down pass from Israel to Rose to keep the drive alive.

     "Jimmy [Rose] was in my doghouse for a while, but came up big when he had to." said Rage Head Coach Ron Scarlata about Rose's play.

     The Rage continue Divisional play this Saturday as they host the Tri County Soldiers.

     FFA fans are used to seeing the Orlando Rage and TC Bobcats meeting on the gridiron, but Saturday the players met in an unusual location-Florida's Turnpike.

     At approximately 3:30 pm Saturday the Orlando Rage team bus was traveling southbound on Florida's Turnpike to Miami.  Coincidentally, Bobcats players were traveling along the same stretch of the turnpike to Fort Lauderdale to take on the Broward Bears.

   At that instant a northbound vehicle lost control and flipped over the guardrail into the southbound lane and ejecting passengers onto the roadway.

     Bobcat players Daniel LaFleur and another immediately got into action to stop traffic and lend assistance as the Rage bus pulled over to assist. LaFleur led the charge to roll the vehicle off of a teenage boy who was partially trapped under the crashed SUV. Once the car was righted, Rage DB Dale Boston and others wrestled the mangled interior of the vehicle to extract another victim.

     On the Rage bus was Offensive Line coach, Rick Leita, Director of Paramedics in Seminole county and a 25 year firefighter/paramedic. Leita, with assistance of LaFleur, Rage staff and players, another off-duty paramedic and two nurses who came upon the scene were able to triage the victims, consisting of a 7 year old girl, two teen boys and two adults.

     "When we pulled up all that I saw was an overturned vehicle in our lane, bodies on the roadway and a little, pink child's car seat-my heart immediately sunk" said Rage President, Christopher Morrison. "We rushed out to assist with our game day medical kit and a busload of strong arms to aid. I hope that our presence and the heroics of Daniel [LaFleur] and Rick [Leita] will aid in the family's recovery" Morrison concluded.

   The Rage are hosting the Tri County Soldiers this Saturday, February 11.  In 2010 the teams squared off with the Rage walking away with a "W" as the first win of the 2010 13 and 0 season.

     This season, however, the game has meaning-due to FFA Division re-alliance the two are division rivals. What's more is that the Soldiers are coming into this week's game with a 1 and 2 record and anxious for another win. Led offensively by a balanced attack of passing and running by QB Antwon Young (averaging approximately 200 yards per game and approximately 200 yards per game rushing).

     The Rage are off to a scorching start to the 2012 season behind the passing of QB Kyle Israel (pas efficiency rating of 134) and the rushing of Levi "Duke" Raines (averaging almost 150 yards per game).

     Will the Soldiers gain a foothold on the Division or will their attack be repelled by the Rage?
