Future Bulldog

That future Bulldog number 50 is my two year old son. He comes on field after each game and walks me off the field. It doesn't get any better than that.

I can't believe that football season is over. We made it to the second round of the playoffs. Man, that was great. My guys were great. But, I will admit that it has been a hard semester with football and MAT. Every minute has been full. Actually, I am looking forward to getting home at a decent hour. I can spend some time with my little boy, and we still have lots of assignments due for this semester. So, with a little more time I hope that I won't feel as stressed.

I have started reading The Teacher's Funeral and it really is funny. So, if you haven't read it go for it because it really is funny.

Getting the Offensive Line Ready for the Playoffs

We are having a great year. The offensive line has really stepped up. I couldn't be prouder of the guys. I really like this picture. That's me in the shades. I really work with the guys on being team players. In fact, my second book talk--You Gotta Get in the Game-- really brings home that lesson I am encouraging my guys to read the book. It is easy reading, twelve chapters, that motivates you to do your best. It outlines what it takes to be a winner, such as, be a team player, set goals, think positive, be honest, deal with adversity in positives ways, and be coachable. What I really like about the book is that the same ideals needed to be a winner on the football field are the same ideals that will help you be a winner in life.

I don't think anyone would believe the time involved in coaching. It's one am or later on Friday nights, up early to be at the field house on Saturday morning to grade films. Take today, our district is out for AEA days. But, the coaching staff has been at the field house most of the day getting ready for Dollarway tonight.
You know what though, it is the best. I'm not even missing having time to bow hunt; well, not too much.
