Hello coach it's been four years since I last had the chance to play football with you on the sideline and unfortunately it appears as though my final football game will be this Friday. The game is gonna be at the place where we had some of the greatest battles in pop warner...Oceanside. I would... Continue Reading →
Oh, the heartbreak!
So..yeah...the team lost 24-21 to the other team that came into the week undefeated in the league. Therefore, even though we have an automatic playoff berth, there was a League Title on the line. And this one went down to the very last play. Which means it was exciting, and no one left early and... Continue Reading →
Leaping Falcons!
Game #8 went rather spectacularly for our team. The first quarter was a scoring bonanza and ended up tied 14-14. However, that was about all the other team could muster until garbage time in the 4th quarter. Our first score was on their first offensive play when #11 picked off a pass and ran it...

Game 3 – One for the win column!
Lot's of reasons to love this game. As much fun as home games are, away games = no work for the liaisons. So I could be completely focused on my office space moving two flights up from the basement to the 1st floor this week without distraction. Sarah and I didn't have to talk/text every day...

Game 2 – more hot weather and another loss
Not much to say - defensive struggle as noted in the paper. What was fun for me was seeing so many friends from the area come out including 18's pop warner coach. He still didn't play much - that double edged sword right since I don't want him to get hurt, but I want him... Continue Reading →
Guess what time of year it is?
It's Falcon Football Season! That right there is the reason I have been AWOL as far as blogging (either here or for the paid site!) I am but a mere, barely 1/4 or 1/3 co-liaison with another mom. She is doing SO SO much, because even my teensy part I do has taken up ALL... Continue Reading →
Football Dinner
Yeah, this is how the night started out - the current parent liaison gives me this monstrosity to thank me for always volunteering for the little things when he asked. Fine, but I am not doing HIS job (by myself) next year! And now I have to keep this thing for a year. I'm already... Continue Reading →
October 1
Yes, I am going to attempt a post a day in October. It's a good month for it. Football games, the last race of the season, a week off later in the month and hopefully the actual arrival of Fall weather (any day now please - today is another scorcher!) I need the distraction this... Continue Reading →
Football video of 16 on the field!
Week 4 Pig Pen Inductee: Jacob Alsadek of Torrey Pines H.S.. Click on the link above to watch the video! OK, that's a bit of a teaser headline 🙂 (note: this post is in lieu of a game report form Friday night since the team lost 2-0 and 16 didn't even step on the field)... Continue Reading →
Varsity football game #1
I swear this blog wont become all Friday Night Lights football but.....what's a proud mama to do but document her son's glory days eh? The team is blessed with a fabulous photographer who has pics up often on the same night after a game. Our #18 being a junior and having just come off of... Continue Reading →
