Are You Ready For Some Football?
After years of watching my grandson play at the lower levels, it was a treat to watch him in his first scrimmage today with the Bethlehem Catholic Little Hawks. They played Notre Dame's Crusaders at Beca's practice fields.
When I was his age, I was on the sidelines. Five years later, I was still on the sidelines. The first time he touched the ball, he took off and scored. Fortunately for him, we are not biologically related.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.

ReplyDeletePlease accept an apology. Was trying to be funny as I too do anything to watch my grandchildren play sports. Have a wonderful time with your grandson. I'm sorry my words did not appear polite.
