About two years ago, I lost my little boy. He left behind his Toy Story toys & Legos, and morphed into this sports addict. He not only loves to play Madden '08 on his PSP, but he loves to play the sport like crazy. He couldn't wait to be old enough to play tackle football. He remembers every sports fact & statistic, ESPN is his favorite channel, and he truly loves the sport. I could not be more proud. John & I are football fans & enjoy talking with him & sharing in the excitement & frustrations of his games.
He is playing for the Packers team this year. They are 1-1 so far. We have two games this week. Spencer has been playing as a receiver, punt return & corner back. He isn't always as aggressive, but he plays with a lot of passion. I think he is still scared he will get squashed to the ground or the wind knocked out of him. Who knows? It is so fun after the games to hear him talk with such intensity and analyze the plays. He tries really hard and wants to play in college some day.
