When our second son started playing football in 5th grade, I called the quarterback the "thrower," much to everyone's amusement. He went on to be varsity. Of course we went to every game, and somewhere along the line I got hooked. It didn't hurt that the Steelers were having a great run back then.

But if it weren't for that forced attendance...
LOL Thank you for understanding. We ended up with two DAUGHTERS and two GRAND DAUGHTERS, so we went to all the gymnastic meets and things associated with the girls, but I get confused trying to remember what ball is egg shaped and what one is round.
