Truth is I don’t have a whole lot to say right now. This was a pretty good rebound weekend for flag football. After a two game losing streak, my 6-7 team rebounded for a win. The 8-9 also rebounded from last week’s tough loss to earn a big defensive win. 4-5 continues to have fun, running and gunning to win #6. All was not perfect in the football world, however. I learned that the 8-9 team is vulnerable on office. Some of that comes from not understanding the plays as they are called, and some of it is about not having the right people in the right positions. Two practices left, and we ought to focus one of them on the offensive execution.
I learned from this weekend where I need to improve as a coach and a play caller. This will benefit me in a number of ways and a number of sports. I am excited about the opportunity to coach 8-9 soccer and have two of my boys finally play together. They are both very high energy kids and though the younger one isn’t old enough for the 8-9 grouping, he is aggressive enough to hold his own with a number of the players, and his physical skills can only rise to the challenge.
Some Thoughts:
- Sometimes you know when someone is doing the right thing. My wife is a nurse and this is the perfect job for her. She loves what she does, and that makes me happy to know she found her happy place.
- A cop cut me off in the parking lot today. I was driving towards him and as he watched me get closer he decided he was done waiting. I slammed on the breaks and narrowly avoided hitting him. Since when do cops run insurance hustles?
