Sorry about missing yesterday. My parents are visiting from South Carolina. We had our first flag football game last night and as you would have guessed, Dylan caught a screen pass and outran the defense for a touchdown :) Votes are in.
#1 vote plus the rest. News Update: Our 10 and under team scrimmaged the 12 and under team last night. The size difference was crazy but Dylan scored a rushing touchdown. Today it's off to our baseball game. Have a great Saturday. Votes are in.
#2 votes plus others. The coach got the league to change our Tuesday game times so Dylan could make the games but they didn't change the time for week one's game so I had to tell the coach that Dylan wouldn't be able to make it. Here is the coaches e-mail to me "Just wanted to follow up. Of course we really want Dylan at the first game, but if he doesn't make it it no problem. But I am begging to see if there is a way for him to make it. He is an integral part of the team and if you haven't seen it, we have him starting on both offense and defense. We can put other kids there ,but he is irreplaceable. After the 1st game, when we play on Tuesday's we play at 6 pm, so you guys will fine then." Votes are in. Guess how big my smile is and how many times I've read that e-mail. Votes are in.
With the one year anniversary of the tragic events at our Embassy's I say on this Thursday: "If you are ashamed to stand by your colors, you had better seek another flag"! I hope the White House is listening! Your vote is in.
I brag a lot on here about my kids. I've told you in the past that my son is about as fast as a lightning strike. He loves to play flag football and is usually one of the best players on the field. Last night we got the schedule for this year and more than half of our games are on Tuesday nights. My wife however has signed him and my daughter up for religious education classes on Tuesday nights (that's Catholic's for you). I told the coach that he wouldn't be able to make half the games and the coach said he would contact the league and see if he could have all of our games switched to Fridays. Votes are in from "the always" proud dad.
