Wright State University Raiders - 2019

Not at all.

Avoid unforced errors. Play inspired defense.

 

While I don't want to see you go prematurely, this may be our last week together.

 

Oh, I don't know about that. My son's last game was in 2013, and I'm still hanging out here. But of course my last personal acquaintance player is graduating this year, so there may be less incentive.

I know a couple of coaches, though, so maybe I'll stick around a while.

Is it fair to say I know a coach on a first-name basis when he recognizes me but always calls me by the wrong name?

 

Of course that qualifies as first-name basis. LOL. Any first name will do.

 

There are soccer people that know I'm going to use a different name, but it's the same name every time and they just answer to it. I can't be blamed that their parents named them wrong!

 

The first couple of times I corrected him. Then I figured I would just be silently polite as long as he remembered my kid's name right. Maybe I look like some Robert he knew once.

On a sort of related matter - my kid's roommate's twin sister played for a NAIA school. In her Freshman ear, that team made it into the post-season playoffs and won their first game, but then had to forfeit because the coach had neglected to put one of the subs he used on the game roster sheet.

 

As long as they call me for dinner!

 

“The greatness of the Raiders is in it’s future!”

 

fantastic

 

I love NCAA tournament, warts and all.
