Message: [QUOTE="WiseWillie, post: 5352431, member: 13141"] While reading through these comments some intended to be humorous, others maybe not so much, the picture of some of us peeking at the screen through a blanket overhead is, well, more than a little funny. Come on BY'ers! Time to man - or woman - up. (As a brief but interesting interlude here, if you want to use someone as an example look at CD during a game. While she's busy taking notes she has an extremely calm demeanor whether we are up by 20 or down by 10. It's the same calm, unruffled look while coach is pacing or has his hands in the air after a flubbed assignment or switch not made and meantime the assistant coaches clapping, standing, shouting encouragement. During all of this CD sits quietly and let's the game unfold from her seat except when she must get up to hold back coach from charging at a ref to complain after a bad or no call. But there's no jumping up and down. No flailing arms. Just a calm professional presence. How she does it is amazing when I'm watching on tv or at Gampel clapping, standing, shouting and high fiveing. It must be a very practiced skill. Besides, of course, Geno, CD over 40 years has been the steady presence that has helped guide 160+ players. Kudos to her.) OK, now back to the Fun V The Weight of Expectations. [/QUOTE]
