Ok. We've been doing this for a few seasons now. But when we first started I couldn't believe the level of testosterone in the air. You can almost smell it. But not quite because well a lot of other rather disgusting odors fill the air. But then a whiff of fresh popcorn, or a hot dog on the grill comes along before you need to hold your nose. But those pads are stinky. There are lots of men with puffed out chest. Our team owes it's success not to the offensive or the defensive but to the fact that the coach makes sure it's about the boys. And that makes it fun.
Jackson and John always have a big fan club at the games. Grandpa and Grandma look so small against Jack. Grandma declared that she must have been standing in a hole.
That's my Jackson. ...... way up there. When we get home will you make me a castle with my blocks?
John is absolutely great as a coach. He's determined to make sure that each boy has a positive experience. He's awarding horse shoes to the teams two new rookies. Last year Ethan was the water boy. He lives right across the street from the field and came to every practice, every game and was just a total part of the team. This year he's a safety. The other player played his very first football game ever. John also awarded the offensive player of the game to Nick our quarterback.
