Prayers Needed

Just found out one of the little fellas that I helped coach in flag football a while back has been diagnosed with some sort of kidney disorder.

He's facing the possibility of dialysis, maybe even needing a transplant, and all of this at age ten. His parents are fine Christian people, but like any parent this is going to hit them pretty hard.

Just a few months ago, I was watching him run around like a little Wes Welker. He was fast, he could catch, run good routes, elude tacklers, honestly nothing he wasn't good at. We could put him at any position on the field and just watch him go. I have fond memories of watching him score touchdowns on plays that were ESPN highlight reel worthy.

It's tough to reconcile those images with what I'm hearing now. This is the kind of thing you hate for anyone, but especially for a child whose biggest concern should be whether he's going to get what he' wants for Christmas.

Prayers for him and his family.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
