Ok, somebody's gotta stop me. I read a mug at Hallmark that said "Somebody stop me before I volunteer again." I've never seen anything fit myself so perfectly. What? You say you can't imagine what I've gotten myself into now? Well... let me tell you. I am the new Madison Elementary Flag Football Coach. Huh?! I don't know a damn thing about football. As much as Marc watches it like 15 months a year, I know nothing about it. In Jr. High cheerleading we did some cheer that went, "First and 10, do it again." I cheered it, but still don't know what it means. "Push 'em back, shove 'em back... waaaaayyyy back." Nope. Don't know what that means either. For me, the best thing about a football game is enjoying it on a nice fall day tailgating with friends, drinking beer. I can't necessarily do that with 150 elementary kids, now can I?
So in my defense, they were going to cancel the program because our varsity football coach decided he didn't have time to run the program for 4 saturday mornings. And I will have Marc there to help me (for the last hour of the program every weekend). I'll just have to make sure I get the kindergarten/1st graders. All they like to do is run around in circles and pull each others flags off. I can coach that. I'll keep you posted.
