Now the real question - did you also get big since he was 7?

It's fun running into players and coaches who remember you. It always scares me that a former player player will come up to me and say, "Yea, I remember you - you're the one who cost us that game back in '92". It hasn't happened yet. But it is nice to get those warm fuzzy compliments; knowing you had touched a kid's life somewhere. I would think it's the same feeling teachers get when they see former students. The part that bothers me is seeing players and coaches outside the gym and I don't recognize them, because it's "out of context" of the game, gym, and school. Maybe that's not an issue with kids who are as big as the Lucas's!
