football football all i see is football


For someone who doesn’t care for football I seem to be spending a lot of time going to football games. Sean had his game last night away against a team that is in another division than ours. They are class A we are Class C so you can imagine what happens when ever our boys match up with this team. Plus I think most of them should have graduated or take steroids or both. They held on and almost won it. The final score was 33 to 28. Not to shabby for a Class C team that they should have buried. They were amazing. Sean ended up playing most of the game on both offence and defense. And he wondered why he wasn’t feeling right this morning.

The varsity team showed up around the 2nd quarter with a sign and cheers to encourage the boys. They are a crazy bunch but I am sure it was a great boost and encouragement for the JV’s.

I am getting an education in football terminology, penalties, different types of tackles and what the signs the ref does on the field mean. I am also one of the louder parents screaming and cheering the boys on. I still flinch every time one of the boys gets hit hard or goes down but its not so bad now.

To another football game tonight to watch the varsity team and Sean march with the marching band. I am going to start seeing footballs in my sleep.
