And perhaps you can feel you had a small role in helping him to get where he is today. <BR/>I was actually rooting for the Steelers (I am a die-hard Packer fan), and I am sorry for the loss.

So I wasn't heartbroken with the loss. I was heartbroken with the WAY they lost though. Going for 2 when you are 12 yards away with 10 minutes left....not sure I would have made that call. Then, again, I do teach 2nd grade...not pro football. <BR/><BR/>That was a great story about Harrison. I can't believe all the experiences you have had! I am jealous with a capital J!<BR/><BR/>Now my football obsession will have to carry on while I watch Friday Night Lights...that Tim Riggins is so misunderstood.

He struggles beyond belief with math (in fact, just got the first semester report card, and he didn't pass the class despite how hard he worked!), and in the last couple of months has begun to doubt that he will ever have a chance to go pro if he can't manage to grasp algebra. This whole story struck me as something that could be very inspiring to him, and quite possibly give him some more hope and encouragement to keep trying. <BR/><BR/>Soooooo, that'd be ok, right? :)The Sports Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17975653596215246648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-59846707547000238232008-01-07T02:04:00.000-05:002008-01-07T02:04:00.000-05:00Okay, I already sent my condolences on the loss, s...Okay, I already sent my condolences on the loss, so I'm going to focus on the rest of this post...that I LOVED!!
