VCU Basketball

I know it's early still, but VCU trashed Hofstra tonight and took over sole possession of first place in the CAA.

John Wall

I am truly excited for the John Wall era to begin.  Even with the Skins and Caps doing well, I want to see the Wiz and what this kid can bring to the franchise.  It's on TNT so you know the rest of the nation wants to find out too.  Can't wait for tonight!!

Alex Is Playing Ice Hockey

So, Alex came to us 2 weeks ago and said she wanted to play hockey.  She doesn't even know how to skate I said.  But, I believe in trying everything (except a mini van) once.  Saturday was her first practice.  She was fired up to get on the ice.  Never knew it took so long to put on hockey equipment.  I have a pointer to first time players, tape up your hockey socks right below your knee, trust me, they will fall down.  She stepped on the ice and fell down right away.  Then she started to cry.  Michelle got her calmed down, from there, she didn't look back.  She fell down a lot, but got up with a smile on her face every time.  The coaches were very patient, 1 on 1 for the most part.  She started to get it and by the end of the 1 hour practice, she was staying on her skates, could pop right up after going down, and was starting to glide around.  She wants to go to open skate today so she can be in the Olympics.  I'm a very proud dad, what could be better, or cooler, on a Saturday morning than coffee and hockey!
