Sorry it took so long for me to get back on here, I’ve been pretty busy.  We lost the Superbowl.  I believe the score was 20 to 12 but I’m not sure.  It was a bit of a bummer, however, we didn’t really stand a chance.  We played horribly (I think it was 5 dropped TD passes), and the refs weren’t calling anything our way.  If we’d done better I’m sure we could have won it but that would have required us playing football.  I’ve got a page on Facebook now, that’s about it though.  Oh, before I forget, I’m 14!  Yay me!  I really need to stop watching Disney Channel’s “The Suite Life of Zach and Cody.”

It is now official!  The Cougars are the #1 team in the Jr. Division.  We beat the Cowboys 19-13 in overtime (sounds familiar) to take first place.  I was targeted twice but didn’t catch either, one was jHere I am running toward the huddle after going out for a pass.ust over my head and the other was nearly picked off so I had to just nail the safety and he dropped it.  I didn’t play much defense but I didn’t get anything even while I was in on D.  However, I did get a tackle off of a pick.  The ball was thrown to another receiver and the CB picked it off but then I teamed up with the coach’s son Ryan Kohl to make the tackle.  The one thing that I wish is that I could play Defense more.  Anyhow, we won and so after next week’s game we will start the playoffs.  Next game is the Tigers, so it should be a fairly easy win.  Maybe I’ll catch something against them this week.  Practice and school tomorrow look to take over my day.  It is going to get cold down here too, 47 degrees is the low tonight.  39 and 34 the next two.  It will be interesting.  Maybe the cold weather will help my play.  Who knows?  I suppose we’ll just have to see, right?  I need to get used to not receiving answers.  Ai ai ai, something else to work on.  Anyhow, it is late and I am tired.  When I add those two things together I get one answer and only one answer.  Bed Time!!

Hi,

I am posting my football schedule so that if you are in town (for those of you who live in some other town/state/country/planet), or would like to come watch me play sometime.  I will be number 10 on the Jr. Cougars.  There are four teams total as you might have guessed if you already read the schedule below.  If you have questions feel free to leave a comment.  Here is the map to the stadium so that you can know where I’m playing: Yahoo Map.

I am officially nervous.  Football starts tomorrow and I (a lazy 13 year old) am not certain if I’m ready.  I get the Herbst Appliance (some orthodontic torture tool) in on Tuesday.  That will probalby slow me down.  Another thing to worry about.  From what I know it is a metal bar that slides to let my mouth open and shut.  Sounds painful.  I have a friend who had one a while ago and he’s giving me tips but I’m still nervous.  Anyhow, I’m kinda busy so I gotta go know.

P.S. my sister is in another play at the Ocala Civic Theater.

Hey Avid Readers (Me basically)!

Football Season starts in a month and I’m going to the beach on Friday.  I’ll have to start conditioning in the next week.  Frequent runs on the Beach and push-ups for starters.  Pull-ups at home as well.  One minor problem though, I get an appliance on the 2nd day of football.  Hopefully it won’t get in the way of my mouth piece.  Oh well, I’ll just have to get started training anyways.
