Football Roundup

Another spotted dick joke from Friday... The teachers have physical mailboxes in the school office.

L: I'm going to leave some on her desk.
D: Why don't you just put it in her box?

Aaaaaahahaha.

We had a great time at the game!! Loss notwithstanding, of course. The energy and volume of the crowd was the level of a t.u. game. We played well overall and were evenly matched with Florida, and were ahead for most of the game, which is far better than I'd hoped! I was so thrilled for Johnny Manziel when he got his first touchdown. He was psyched!! The team was so proud of him as well. I think he's going to be an exceptional quarterback.

New coach, new freshman QB, new conference. Dominated the first half. I think it went pretty well. So YAY! The second half wasn't a complete flop, like our prior few years. I never felt like they gave up. Florida's fantastic march to the end zone at the beginning of the third quarter totally deflated everyone, but the team hung in there.

Onward and upward.

Best of all, Kevin Murray (Aggies QB 1983-86, while I was there) signed my A&M baseball cap!! WHOOP! Lauren's comment: "He's still really buff." She left off the "...after all these years..." which I appreciated.

Now I need to locate Bucky Richardson to have the complete QB autograph collection from my years at TAMU. And of course, Coach Sherrill would be a coup. He's at a lot of the games, so maybe I'll catch him at some point.

Congrats Denver on beating the icky Steelers!! Awesome game. Also, Eric Decker is hot. Worth a mention.
