I love football. It is the time of year when the leaves turn colors, it finally cools off, and school spirit runs high. I love cheering at the games and being part of the excitement. However, I hate feeling like a single parent. If something needs to be done, it is all me. If there is a bill that needs to be paid, an errand that needs to be done, a car that needs servicing, it is all on me. It is more than a bit stressful.
I guess seeing Matt on the sidelines makes it all worth it. He gets into it a little bit more than the average coach. Last week he got a sideline warning for yelling at the ref. (It was his second one this season.) I stood and cheered for him. Of course, I was the only one cheering that we got a flag. He is also very good at getting the boys motivated. Ash calls it his coaching voice. It is huge and booming. Whatever he says the boys do it. I wish I had such power.
