Top Shelf,
Were you at the same game as me? When Morris hit the lead off double, his body language was full of passion for the game. When Hermans wasn't getting any calls, he didn't pout. Instead, he focused and went to work. I can go on with examples, but the fact is, the team lost a tough one to a good Grapevine team. It's tough being highly ranked because of the bull's eye on your back. Seems like some people just want to kick some good, talented kids when they're down. The good news is that most all the seniors are moving on to great college programs so you haven't heard the last of them.
As for English, he's made some mistakes through the years, but Cat is right, he loves those kids. I believe him to be an honorable man who has given my kid an "Attaboy!" when he needed it.
