    And I'm not talking about Navy. I decided to drive down to New Albany Sat. and take in my grandson's game. His Silver Bullet team was playing for their league championship. With a roster of only 17 some kids have to play both ways. He played every down. Bullets won 21-0. [​IMG]

    I'd like to take some genetic credit for his stamina. The fact is his dad runs in marathons and his grandfather, an ND classmate of mine has qualified for the last 3 Boston marathons. He does eat like me however.

    Good looking kid. With those skill sets from the other sports, he should avoid a life of drudgery as a linemen and score!

    Great picture and a great way to spend a weekend. Congratulations to your grandson.

    He's a good looking boy, must take after his grandmother. :)

    I copied the picture and it was rotated, I don't know what happened. I uploaded it to my photo bucket and fixed your post, hope you don't mind.

    That's my oldest grandson Patrick Cooper. You may remember him from a couple of years ago when he won our NCAA backetball bracket tourament. His mom teaches Economics at Ohio St. She lost one of her annual guest lecturers last year. He'd come in each semester and teach a class. They guy's name is John Kasich and I heard he got another job.
