I know, I know, I know... it has been a while since the last post

I am envious of you bloggers that manage to keep up with this stuff. Anyway, football has been pretty good around the Dennis' home post Ike. Both the Cougars and the Patriots have managed to win their last three games. That makes the Cougars now unbeaten in conference and the Patriots five and two on the season. Unfortunately, the Cougars have had only 2 home games all season (one of the games I had to miss because Coleman had his own practice that night). It is not easy listening to a football game on the radio. Especially when you are pulling for the Cougars as they seem to enjoy digging themselves out of a hole each week. A win is a win, however! Coleman is definitely improving and having fun playing. Our weekly film review has given me new phrases (although "be more aggressive" is probably one I will be hearing for the next 6 years or so) to remind Coleman when he comes over for mid-practice water break. At any given practice you may hear me telling him to "contain!", "stay at home", and "explode off the line". It has been interesting to learn football terminology but I just hope I am saying the right thing at the right time. This weekend is a huge game for his team as they play the Friendswood Mustangs - it is a must win for the Patriots if they want a shot at the playoffs. I'll let you know how it turns out! Coleman is # 47 and is playing defensive end and tight end in the video clips.
