Down and...

#99 isn't a Steds lucky number.

out. Yes, it's true. Steds is out of this year's football playoffs, and one of its players, Jonathan "Chep" Chepkevich, is down. Chep, Steds senior, is down with a broken jaw, suffered during a game with Zahm, a game which Steds won thanks in part to Chep's sacrifice. Now able to talk and eat solid foods, I caught up with Chep and asked him his thoughts on this year's Steds football season and his injury.

St. Ed: How would you describe this year's Steds football season?

Chep: We fought the good fight. We twerked the good twerk, and we exemplified Allen Iverson's practice mentality.

St. Ed: Some say that your injuries are a result of your "No Fear" style of play. How would you respond to that?

Chep: Steds fears not pain nor any opponent. Although our injuries can be very real, we ALWAYS play without fear, namely of concussions, as they are merely a fabrication of the leftist media.

St. Ed: After making a full recovery, would you don the Steds football jersey again?

Chep: I most certainly would don the green and gold again and fight for glory alongside my generous brothers.... but first, I would need a sewing kit since they had to cut my jersey in half post-injury.

St. Ed: What advice would you pass on to those Stedsmen chasing after glory on the football field?

Chep: Always be a generous teammate. Also: If you choose to go all "WWE" and suplex the opposing team's quarterback onto your face, a liquid diet is on the horizon.

Wise advice indeed Chep...
