Grand finale


Thanksgiving went well as usual. Before that I was able to meet up with some friends that I had not seen in awhile. Thanksgiving is always a great time for football and I got to go to the last Texas-Texas A&M game since the Aggies are going to the SEC. My little brother goes to Texas A&M and he was able to get us tickets for the game. Hopefully the rivalry will pick up sometime soon and if not the matchup will make for a great bowl game. The game was crazy and it was my first time to go to a game at Kyle Field. Texas ended up winning on a last second field goal making for an exciting finish to the rivalry. The Cowboys also ended up winning that day by a field goal. It was nice to spend some quality time back home and about to be on break again. We have two more weeks of school then we start finals. Took some pictures of the game…

Thanksgiving and why Tim Tebow is the man...


Here in the New Orleans Airport right now getting ready to head back to Texas for the Thanksgiving break. Excited to be home and relax a bit. Have a lot going on over the break one of them being the last football games between Texas and Texas A&M. Track practice has been going well; I had a 350m time trial yesterday and it went well. Excited about using this time to get my legs underneath me to build on it going into the Christmas break. Saw an interview with Tim Tebow on First Take, love what he stands for and appreciate his refreshing perspective on life! His interview definitely put me in a good mood. Definitely pulling for the Broncos.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Time for Thanks


Hard to believe that Thanksgiving is almost here, I always love this time of year because it’s the start of my favorite two holidays: Thanksgiving and Christmas. It is always a great time to be around family as well as time to watch football. But before the break begins I have a presentation and a paper due on Monday where my team is analyzing the professional sports industry. You might be thinking does this guy ever talk about anything but sports?  Yes I do, but there is no doubt sports are a huge passion of mine. I am looking forward to being at home and catching up with friends and family. Right after Thanksgiving is pretty much finals time and crazy to think that I am almost one semester away from graduating college. Looking forward to using some of my time off to wrap up my applications for grad school. Definitely feel blessed to be able to spend my Thanksgiving at home. I hope that you will be spending it with the people that mean the most to you.

Semester Flying by...


With the Fall Semester comes football season so if you are not a big fan of football I’m sure many of my post do not really interest you. This past weekend featured one of the biggest match ups in college football with LSU (1) vs. Alabama (2) squared off in Tuscaloosa, AL. I watched the game with some track guys and next week plan on watching the Stanford-Oregon game this weekend.  LSU won by a field goal and Alabama had some missed opportunities on turnovers. Anyone who blames the game on Cade Foster is crazy and should be ashamed for mentioning it as the reason for losing the game. School has gone well and I am almost finished with the semester. I’m looking forward to being home for Thanksgiving and being back in Texas. Training has gone well and I definitely feel that things are coming along. I will most likely being in College Station for Thanksgiving and it is crazy to think that this will be the last time for Texas and Texas A&M will play each other for awhile. Looking forward to the next couple of weeks before I am back at home.
