If there is one thing that I know for certain about this small weekly contribution of mine is that it will never be short of material. This week is a superb example.
Can you imagine having a job where all you do is soak up sports 24/7? I can see it now. Some of you sports junkies are already beginning to drool at the thought. Perhaps I should pass out some tissues? But hold it right there buddy as I have first dibs.
This week we’ll touch on the tip of the iceberg. On the agenda football, more football and then a bit more for those of you who are having withdrawal symptoms. Also, women’s and men’s basketball, women’s and men’s fencing, women’s and men’s tennis, wrestling, track and field, swimming and diving and softball.
And finally a little present for Patrick. For some reason he has this “thing” for Abby Waner’s shoes. Please don’t ask. So I have a small present for him via YouTube that he can watch over and over again. Come to think of it I think I’ve lost track of the number of times….oh never mind.
