Now, why would you be reading a post when you are eating dinner with a friend? <br /><br />A manager is kinda like the water boy, I think, but who gets to practice. Ever seen the movie "Rudy"? We have been calling Phoenix, Rudy, ever since. (If you haven't watched it, do so right now. One of the best true story movies ever made.)<br /><br />No fluff. He was happy with it. Well, at least he thanked me, so I think he's happy with it.<br /><br />Maybe someday...<br /><br />It was a very good thing to get a date night in. We don't do it often enough.<br /><br />I knew the words, but had to look up the spelling of a couple of them. <br /><br />Hilarious movie!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-3493032360653306282013-08-19T01:18:40.929-04:002013-08-19T01:18:40.929-04:00I get the favorite reader badge then, because.... ...I get the favorite reader badge then, because.... DODGEBALL! Yes! There are many highlights of that movie, but Jason Bateman and Gary Cole as the announcers for ESPN - The OCHO is one of my favorite parts! :) <br /><br />Great post! Speaking of Dodgeball...the movie's full title is "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story" and so I can't help but think of Phoenix' soccer story! Just awesome....good prevailed!

I'm... you know... me, but I can'...Evening. I'm... you know... me, but I can't lie and say I didn't see the post you are referencing. I was eating dinner with a friend and reading the one line made me kind of.. instantly close it [tab] out, and the rest of the week got pretty crazy. I'll be going backwards, but I read enough in that one line, and your mention above (and comments below) to get the gist and I'm extremely sorry for the family's (and everyone involved) loss. I'm not exactly good at the praying thing, but I feel my practice is about the same and will do so.<br /><br />Not exactly easy to go from that to the rest, but I am really glad Phoenix got on the team. I can imagine how bummed he was, after attempting to help everyone else on the team. It's odd to think what exactly the criteria they were looking for beyond kicking for goals. Not sure what being a Manager meant, but it sounds like he was accepted on the team and so all is well.<br /><br />I don't even want to think what kind of fluff #3 caused >.> I'll just leave it at that... But seriously, that is kind of cool... or disturbing... or... something regardless :-)<br /><br />I'm still jealous of you self-sustaining farm. It would be pretty cool to have that, but lord knows I'm likely a tad bit too lazy for it.<br /><br />It's wonderful to hear you had all the help from your kids and were able to sneak in a date night with the C.O.W. It's important to get them in when you can. I'm sure I've said this elsewhere before.<br /><br />I feel like I am due for some relaxing park adventures. Been trying for a few weeks now.<br /><br />I'm curious if you knew all the Spanish or cheated and looked some up? Honestly, as reading some of them I was tempted to look up if you had the correct spelling cause I am completely clueless on most of them.<br /><br />LOVE Dodgeball!<br /><br />Jak at <a href="http://crytonchronicles.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Cryton Chronicles</a> & <a href="http://dreamsintheshadeofink.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Dreams in the Shade of Ink</a>Jakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05069266783997777691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-44912100620340025452013-08-18T22:56:50.499-04:002013-08-18T22:56:50.499-04:00I would imagine it would be.
