Last week my little brothers had there football finals.
Both Tapua and Josiahs teams made the finals.
Josiahs team won and Tapuas lost.
Both my brothers love playing football.
They trained two hours a night every night for the first couple of months, then a few nights a week for a couple of hours, football is a BIG commitment, and I'm glad it was something they enjoyed.
A couple of random thoughts on football in Utah since I'm sure we are going to put Mana into it.
I STRONGLY dislike that they put a big X on the helmets of the kids who are "overweight" and the make them play on the line.
I know that right before everyone gets weighed at the beginning of the season, there are little boys sitting in steam rooms trying to lose weight, taking laxatives, running in trash bags etc.
For little boys to be doing this I think its ridiculous.
Mana is a solid chunk of a kid, and if he has an X on his helmet, I'm wondering how that will affect him, I know thats like 5 or so years away but still ... makes me think.

oh my gosh!! That is awful!!! I am glad that your brothers love football...but what an awful thing to do to little kids! Luckily you are much smarter than the stupid parents that would do that to little ones! Congrats to both of your bros making their finals!!!
