I work real hard at making football work having a wife and two girls ages 3 and 6. The wife supports me working high school ball but wanted me to give up midgets. I just applied to college and will hopefully be accepted after the 2006 season. Those all-day Saturdays will be a whole new ballgame.
It sometimes gets "old" as she puts it but I need to focus totally 115% on family during the week and not talk about football or work. And, during the off season when she wants to go out, let her go!
A few weeks ago I received an e-mail with the subject line...."We're meeting to meet BonJovi in a suite at the Soul game tonight."
I thought "cool, a Friday night at the soul game." Then I read the body of the message. "We" is her and a girlfriend and they had free, open bar, etc. in a suite on a Friday night to watch the Philadelphia Soul. I had to take the girls to a movie. My response...."hey, you don't mind me doing fooball. NO problem!"
It's about working through it together.
