The Miracle on Thomas Arnold
“I’m too old for this….” Roger Murtaugh in Lethal Weapon, a movie that came out when I was 21 years old.
The fictional character played by Danny Glover was six years younger than me. I was feeling him as I watched the Bryan Rudder Rangers go up 34-0 on my Salado Eagles, a team I have covered since 1988, in less than 18 minutes of play.
But then something happened that this sportswriter has never seen happen before while covering the Salado Eagles.
