Monday Night Football!!!

 Tonight with the sun in our faces, we tried to see the plays.  Andrew and Kyle went up for the toss up or what ever you call it.
 Andrew is Number 71.  Every one played a great game.  Great blocking, great defense, great scoring, interceptions...we won.

The game was not played by Andrew alone.
They have a great team.
Andrew made two touch downs and two-point conversions,
and some tackles that brought the crowd to their feet.
I have a terrible fault...
I only saw Andrew!

What Does September Mean???

Foot ball!!!  After watching Andrew play since third grade, I am still nervous.  I can't help it.  I am afraid I may have tainted his training because I always said, be nice.  Well, this game is certainly not nice.  Manners are left at the door.  Two plays got flagged for illegal something or other and our team got extra yards. 

I still don't know much about football except when Andrew is running with the ball and doesn't go down, that is good.  When the other team has the ball and Andrew takes them down, that is good.  Although I still cringe inside about how much that could hurt!

I was very proud when Andrew told how a guy pulled him down by the face mask and called him a dirty name.  Andrew said, watch your mouth and got back in the game.

The first game was a victory...48-18.  I am glad we won but I still can't help feeling bad for the ones who did not.
Andrew...71
Andrew, 71
Zander watched his brother play.
Another game the ninth, hope it goes as well.
