I echo that, glen.

Happy Thanksgiving to all, and to all a good turkey!

As a dad who has daughters playing in various sports and a SB and sometimes S****r official, I would NEVER officiate basketball. The fans are without a doubt the most ruthless.

It is a sport I usually find a nice out of the way spot to watch from.

BTW......Lauren was the only freshman to make the JV BB team. She's starting too...........(big dad grin).

And as glen noted.......I coached my last xoccer game last weekend. Took the team to the playoffs the last two years, but Katie moves up to the competetive level next year and I am passing the whistle on to my assistant of the last 4 years. Ahhhhhh......that lawn chair on the sideline sure does look good.
