This one is for the family. My nephew, Conor, played football this past fall in Germany. No-not soccer, but football. He was the starting linebacker, and the second string quarterback, for is team. I have mentioned before that he does not yet know the limitations of being from a stock of warriors who rarely reach the upside of 5'6", so he, along with probably half of his team mates, is one day going to play major college football for the USC Gamecocks, the Florida Gators, Texas Longhorns, or whatever college team -fill in the blank- savvy enough to request his services. They also have plans to play pro-football after going high in the draft, and to lead their team to Superbowl glory. Ahhh, the exuberant enthusiasm and optimism of youth. Above, the young field general is behind center and ready to march his team to pay dirt.
Conor is on the left in the above picture. He and his team mate, Kyle, are obviously deep in discussions over how to motivate their fellow warriors and coming up with strategies to defeat the weekly foe that stands in their path. By the way, they finished with only one loss, and would have won the championship if such an award was given. So congrats to the Heidelberg football team, and congrats to Conor and his team mates!!!
