#DoSomething
A lot of VSNers know that I have a 5-year old daughter and a 19-year old step-daughter (insert low-brow humor here). What I haven't talked about is my step-son Jake, who is 17. Jake has been on the Varsity squad since midway through his Freshman year. Last October, in a game against Gaither he suffered a complete tear of his ACL. He worked his ass off for nearly a year, and last night was his first game action since the his tear. He was receiving letters from a number of different universities (Georgia Tech, Nebraska, Cincinnati and a few others) prior to his injury about how they were monitoring his play, etc. and his personal goal is to earn a Division 1 scholly. In all honesty, I think he can earn a mid-level scholly...I know that USF will most likely offer, but I have been trying to manage his expectations about HUGE schools making offers. Either way, I was really proud of him last night and I wanted to share the highlight video of the game. It is from a local station Bright House Sports Network and whoever is doing the voice-work is fucking brutal - but his kickoff return for a touchdown is in there so I thought I would share with VSN!
