For the last 20 years, the Middle-aged Football League (MFL) of the Capital area has played Sunday touch football games from September through January. Comprised of DC area professionals, aged 25-50, these games have served as a weekly convivial gathering of colleagues who share business and personal interests while engaging in a sport they love and can't (but probably should) give up.
Over the years, the league has attracted a wide variety of participants ranging from venture capitalists, attorneys, hill staffers and brokers to engineers, business owners, doctors and Internet entrepreneurs who play each week in mud bowls, ice bowls, snow bowls and even a yearly Turkey Bowl at Thanksgiving.
“These old guys have met on every Sunday during the season for the last 20 years to live out past football fantasies and network. Every year they're really excited to play in this tech vs. brick and mortar format and the sponsors have responded to help us benefit a variety of worthy causes over the past 5 years,” commented Dave Gardy , Chairman of TVWorldwide.com. “The Web Warriors have won in 2000 and 2002, the Brick and Mortars won in 2001 and 2003…this is the rubber year and both teams want it bad.”
“These Internet tech-geeks have all been brought back to earth by the market,” remarked Bricks and Mortar tight end Ray Kramer, a structural engineer. “In last year's Cyber Bowl, the Brick and Mortar team brought them back to earth on the field 26-0. Forget the tech market rebound…in this year's Cyber Bowl on Super Bowl Sunday we'll be dishing out another dose of Brick and Mortar reality.” ( Click on link for last year's 2003 Capital Cyber Bowl video highlights ).
This year's webcast will also features an interactive chat and e-mail. The event again will raise money for several charities through event sponsorship packages (detailed in the link below.) Your are invited to join us for this unique, entertaining and worthwhile event, live here at this site on Feb 1, 2004 at 11:30 AM EST as aging war-horses clash once again in the 2004 5th Annual Capital Cyber Bowl. |
About the Touchdown Club
Since its founding over 68 years ago as a DC area sports club, Touchdown Club Charities has been committed to the mission of honoring past sports legends, current stars and encouraging future leaders. The original Touchdown Club's Timmie Award preceded the Heisman Trophy and its annual dinner attracted Presidents to the superstars of the day. TDC also boasts the nation's oldest Hall of Fame – a rare series of oil paintings commissioned since 1935 featuring legendary football heroes.
Proud of its history, the TDC today maintains it strong network of dedicated members and has broadened and rededicated its mission of giving to youth and community causes.
Our members enjoy well-attended monthly gatherings at various area venues where business leaders often mix with politicians and professional athletes. Popular annual fundraising events like the Superbowl Party or the “Kids Are The Winners!” Golf Tournament are highlights of a full calendar of TDC events.
