Here I am sitting on my couch working on my blog. I have 4 hours of overtime which is not paid at the Betty Griffin House so I am blogging from the couch. I must admit I have been entrenched in the discussions on ESPN about the Tampa Rays and how they have overcome so much to be one game away from the World Series. They have no superstars, no big contracts and not even a guy who is a future hall of famer right now in uniform with them. They have gone from doormat, a team that has never had a winning season to being within one game of the World Series, how cool is that. That is what our passion for sports is all about, seeing the underdog conquer the giant!
Yesterday was quite the slow day, I got some more presentations booked for the fall, got our hot water heater looked at out in the youth house,(hope to get that fixed today) and we did some homework and went to football practice last night. The team is still practicing hard and working hard. The sting of their one loss still sits with them even though they have 5 victories. THis is important because they play an 0-6 Middleburg team who has lost 5 games to teams that will eventually be district champions and major playoff contenders. So that record is very misleading and they are good enough to beat anyone. So we are very aware of that.
Have a great day, hope to have something entertaining or exciting for you tomorrow!
