Popsicles and Football

Funny thing about Popsicles or Fun Pops.  After a tough day working out in 100 degree heat, these magical frozen treats turn huge football players into little boys once again.  Last Friday is was blistering hot on our practice field.  Everyone (Players and Coaches) were dripping with sweat and exhausted after our last Summer workout before regular season practice begin.  Then, my wife Marty pulls up with a huge cooler FULL of these frozen Fun Pops.  Then it happened....an amazing transformation happened before my eyes...

These HUGE YOUNG MEN

Became LITTLE BOYS AGAIN  

                            

At least in my eyes anyway.  One of the great things about being a coach is watching these kids grow up.  It was not that long ago that our players were all this little.  Just the way our players lined up for their share of the Fun Pops took be back in time....and it was wonderful.
