okay, so I get why the high school has homecoming. i mean, it's fun to come home and go to a football game and all. and the parade and all that good stuff. but honestly, why do 5,6, and 7 year olds need a homecoming. so, that they can have an excuse to have a pep rally or something? I mean, it's not like they're going to come back to see the youngest group play when they're 8 or something. they can't drive themselves back, the only reason they might come back is if their parents brought them. but, that's beside the point. today was homecoming for the WYFL.

this kid is pretty amazing if I say so myself. he's number nine. i might be a bit biased though. seeing as this kid is my little brother and all. just saying. even though we lost to Prattville, 50 something to 28, this kid scored not one, not two, but THREE touchdowns. two of which were 65 yards. that's pretty cool if i say so myself.

the whole family joined in on the fun of cheering today. even though we lost, it was a very entertaining game. now, if I can just get those auburn tigers to play, we'll be in good shape.

Go Indians and War Eagle!
