Darrell “Housh” Doucette had an army of internet trolls ready to ram his own words down his throat after he publicly declared that he and the rest of the men’s USA national flag football team were betting on themselves to retain their roster spots even if challenged by NFL stars who want to join the squad for their sport’s debut as an Olympic event in 2028.
Those trolls are going to have to keep waiting after Doucette fired six touchdown passes to four different receivers to lead the US to a 53-21 victory over Austria to claim an unprecedented fifth consecutive flag football world championship.
