I was on TV on Friday night...
 
...for a locally televised "Game of the Week". While the novelty of being of TV was fun, I got several calls from friends after I got home wanting to talk about the game.

My favorite comment was from the assignor who said that he heard that the camera added 10 lbs to you, but after seeing me on tv, that they must have used two and a half cameras on me. :eek:

I guess it is time to hit the treadmill...

On that rare occasion when I see someone with a camera, I ask them to get my good side, make me look tall, handsome, and miminmize the size of my schnoz! Usually I see them packing it up after that! ;)

Any clips?

Not yet. My computer nerd brother is making me a dvd of the game. After that, maybe. Couldn't find any online. Sorry.

Congrats stripes, that is exciting. I made it on TV for a game of the week while working football this season. It was my first Varsity game and the fifth regular game of my career. Needless to say I felt a little overwhelmed. :eek:

I'm tossing the ball and I am the last one off the court at the end...and on the clip several times in between.

Well no wonder the assigner was on your case, you're a camera hog! :D I think I recognize one of your partners as well.

I had a double whistle on that one (I was T) and I had a defensive foul, but the L had already called a PC while I just held my fist in the air to make sure we didn't blarge ourselves. We talked about the play after the game and I told my partner I had a different call. What do you do? It was over by then.
