Awesome picture.
You look stunning, ex, and I'm not blowing smoke either...:)
Thanks for sharing D!..Looking through the Pic's I saw Jerry Buckhimmer? (sp?)
I presume he is a contributor?(And a SEAL fan)
Tom Brokaw blew us off when I asked him for a pic with my daughter. She was wearing the white flower which was given to those who had lost their SEALs, so it really felt like a slap in the face. I guess he was too busy.
Thanks for sharing that, great pictures. Is your daughter playing any B-ball these days?
If that's the case, then her coach is an idiot.
My first coaches in 6th grade were both standout players, still seniors in HS when they took on the task. We accelerated our skill level and knowledge of the game because of their early input.
Nothing beats being able to competently run a fast break or full/half court press by the time you're in 7th grade. Most teams we played had no idea how to deal with us.
Did you go to St Peters?
I take it you're referring to St. Peters Lutheran school?
I went to Wayside, we played most of our games against other Catholic schools in the area. St. Raymonds and St. Emilys in MP, St. Collettes in Rolling Meadows and a bunch of others.
Our coaches also used to enter us into tournaments against some tough Chicago teams, particularly on the west side. We once played a game against the team that Issah Thomas was on in grammar school.
Needless to say, as good as we (thought we) were, we got schooled by those guys. They were phenomenal.
Yes, she is! She's was starting center as a sophomore this year. I wish she had a better coach, though. I've volunteered to help, but the coach doesn't want my help.
I'd have played Bball instead of wrestling!I wish my basketball Coach looked like you EX hehe...I definitely look up to ya.
I'd have played Bball instead of wrestling!
In all seriousness, what part about "National Champions" does that ditz of a coach not understand? It would be like me coaching one of the Manning kids in High School and telling their dad I don't need to listen to anything he says about playing quarterback...
