Leaving for the Outer Banks tomorrow night. Best week of the year.

I was working a group of my 10-12 Jarrettsville Ravens on the blocking sleds the other night. They were getting a little sluggish, so I yelled, "C'mon fellas! Hit it like it stole your Xbox! Let's go!!!"

One young man, already in his 3-point stance ready to pop the pads and to whom my comment was NOT directed (one of my best players, hardest workers, and all-around nicest kids) said, "I don't have an Xbox, Coach." I said, "Alright, your Playstation then."

"Don't have that either, Coach." Mildly annoyed, I said, "Fine! Your Ipod! Just pop the pad! Hard!" He said, "Uh-uh, don't have an Ipod, either."

I said, "What do you do then?", meaning with his free time.

"I play football, Coach."

Scottie, sometimes I swear you're a Hollywood screenwriter making this stuff up. I mean that in a good way in that you tell stories pretty well.

I feel like this kid is going to go on to walk on and play one snap on senior day at Notre Dame or something.

LOL...my Facebook friends can check my profile (I posted it as my status). One of the boys that was next to him on the sled chimed in and said, "You gotta love Nolte!"

Watch that last name...he'll be a stud at North Harford High School someday. I talked to his dad tonight and he confirmed that it's who this boy is. He lives for football. He asked for the NFL Network for Christmas a few years ago. His bedroom (according to dad) is a football shrine. He craves football knowledge and knows how to play several positions (DE, TE, LB, FB among others) all on his own.

This season is gonna be great!

Congrats! I remember when I first got those certs about 4-5 years ago! I feel old now. I recommend either buying a CCNA kit from Ciscokits.com or buying the Boson Netsim router simulator software. I bought both, you shouldn't need both though, and got great experience from both. Congrats again!

I could not be happier that the VT - JMU game is not televised. I could not handle watching this.

I think they'll be a replay tonight and tomorrow night on Comcast.

I just learned that I received second place nationally in the Sports Commentary division of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association Gold Circle Awards for college journalism! Now, if only this had been announced before my two medical school interviews this week

Send them an update letter.

I just had my first experience with our apartment complex's emergency maintenance and am pretty impressed. A part in our toilet tank broke around midnight and it wouldn't flush. We called the 24-hour emergency number (since we only have one bathroom) and it was fixed in 45 minutes.
