NUMBER THREE.

With win number 3 under their belts, Spencer's football team feels pretty good. For the three games that they have played, Spencer has a total of 21 tackles. I think that, that is pretty good. Whenever he makes a tackle he raises his arm and holds up a finger. In Saturday's game he held up one then two then three and four fingers. The players lined up and the ball was put into play. There was a scramble of bodies on the field and then a pileup. As the bodies rose from the pile there was one player still on the ground and that was number 57, my grandson Spencer. After a few seconds he moved raising his hand to show 5 fingers indicating that he was the one who made the tackle showing that he made 5 tackles in the game. Cheers and laughter filled the field with spectators and parents showing their pleasure with that gesture.
Way to go Patriots. Keep on winning.

WINNER AGAIN.

Spencer had his second football game yesterday in Santonio, Texas. He is on a traveling team so the family had to travel over 100 miles to get there. Spencer called me while I was on my way to a anniversary party. He was so excited he could hardly speak. The words that came out of his mouth were " we won with a score of 28 to 6 and I made three tackles". He really likes the game and is building a reputation amongst his team mates.
I can't wait for the next game. I hope they continue their winning streak although it is only 2-0.
Keep up the good work Spenc and your Patriots.

MURPHY'S LAW

Murphy's Law is a saying that what can go wrong will.
This is a story from today's paper 9-11-10.
A gentleman from Kokomo Indiana was traveling on Interstate 65 and got a flat tire on his Lexus. Put the spare tire on only to discover that, that was flat also. While filling the spare tire with air, it exploded when he overfilled it, ripping his shirt and bruising his chest and arms. In a case like that what do you do? He picked up his cell phone and in the middle of calling for help the phone went dead. This poor gentleman tried driving at about 20 to 25 mph to get to the next exit and to a tire store but didn't make it. His car was rear ended by a semi and each vehicle spun out of control. He was taken to the hospital with contusions and a laceration to his head. Nothing happened to the truck driver.
This man, you can say, had an interesting day.

THE WINNER IS!!!!!!

As I mentioned awhile back, my grandson, Spencer, is playing football. I would have loved to be there when he played his first game last Saturday. When my daughter called to tell me the outcome of the game she was horse and said that the rest of the family was the same way.
I said never mind that, did he win. The answer to that question was yes, 21-20. Spencer alone took down the quarterback two times. My daughter said he is really making a name for himself.
Another game is scheduled for this Saturday in San Antonio which is about 125 miles away from their home. When they got over the shock of how far the game was the coach said he forgot to tell them it was a traveling team. I wonder how many will drop out of the team after learning this and $150.00 invested. Time will tell.
Well anyway, great job Spencer and good luck in the next game. I will be anxiously awaiting the results.

FOOTBALL IS ROUGH

While I was in Texas I had the opportunity to watch my grandson Spencer practice football. With the temperatures in the 100's I had a hard time sitting and watching let alone be a kid on the field playing, running and doing exercises.
I have never seen this before but after each practice the boys, and whom ever else wanted, were fed. Now keep in mind that they practice three times a week and after each practice they had food and drink. One day it was hot dogs, the next pizza, tacos, hamburgers and what ever else was prepared by the parents while the kids practiced.
Like I said football is a rough sport. At first Spencer was getting a little bored because all it was, was running, sit-ups, jumping jacks and other exercises. When the pushing and shoving started he was all for that. Spencer is a BIG boy and when he blocks or tackles someone they know it. We all have to keep in mind that accidents do happen, not on purpose, they just happen. Just last week they were lined up to scrimmage, Spencer plays guard, the whistle blew and Spencer nails this poor kid. When the dust settled and everyone was up it was noticed that the kid he blocked had a broken arm. Spencer really felt bad not only for breaking the arm but thinking about all the money the parents spent on this kids uniform, $150+ and now he has to sit out when they play their first game which is tomorrow, Sept 3.
