What's this?

I stopped letting anything else rule my life


once i had kids and they started growing up.

all sports are is entertainment to me. my life and my happiness are more dependent on my own 18-22 year old kids than others that play a sport and associate with a school i graduated from 31 years ago.

I wanted Tech to win. I was frustrated we didn't. I didn't think we played well. I also don't have unrealistic expectations. I also know from some interactions I have had with former players...they care about the outcome way more than I do. They feel worse than I do when they do not do well or lose. I just want them to go to my school, get an education and represent the school well, be prodcutive to society, and be happy...and maybe that is in reverse order.
