My husband always jokes that “she may be small, but she can still take you out” I’m 5’4 with a 6’4 attitude sometimes😏

I am truly sorry to hear what Derek has gone through to play . You give us an inside perspective that shows the caliber of the heroic young men playing for us. We must not forget they are human beings and suffer accordingly .

WOW! Talk about a warrior, that is really tough.

Thank you. So many play with pain and injury, but play through the season anyway. Don’t know how they do it sometimes.

Yeah, thanks for sharing. We, as a never played fan, don’t even have a clue all the wear and tear
these young men go thru. Kinda makes me question if I even have the right to ever boo the
team and players.

You don’t. Only boo the refs for badly blown calls or the opponents for cheap shots.

That may not always be a good thing lol! I’m actually not as outspoken as I appear to be on here. Only when it comes to defending my boys or my students, any child actually. That’s just the teacher in me.

I am the same way as a grandfather with children. All children, not just mine.

Thank you for calling them children instead of “kids” which I know is common or acceptable. CBY never used the term. I find it a little pejorative. Child, youngster, young man or young lady or to be more accurately descriptive of age:infant, toddler; schoolboy, schoolgirl, adolescent. I have suggested this to lawyers and law students I have taught and some have suggested I am being too picky or critical but people do judge us on the words we use. It’s the same principle for why I do not use the word, “cop” preferring “police officer” or “law enforcement”.
Anyway thanks again for showing class and good taste with your language.

That just means you like terms that come from the Latin (Romance Language) side of English as opposed to the the Germanic side.

The German terms I like are applestruddle, weinersnitzel, blutwurst, beef short ribs and sauerbraten.
