Playyy Ballllll....

It's spring break which would normally be a great thing for a teacher, but in the life of a baseball coach it means you are extra busy! Kris has had 1 full day off this week and the rest have been filled with practice and games. They have a BIG game tonight to kick off district (even tho they already played 1 out of place disctrict game so far) against Rider...then tomorrow we get to play at the Frisco Rough Riders field!! I am also so EXCITED because my friend Wendy got me a super cute new Bling shirt for Baseball and Football!!

 I found a cute comic and poem about a coach that I wanted to post.

I am a coach.

I coach the team for one common dream,

Yes I am the coach of one fabulous team.

I coach the team so that they may win,

I hope they can do it again and again.

I am a coach.

I am the coach of all victories,

If we barely squeak by or win with ease.

I am also the coach of the times we get beat,

Whether it's the 10-run rule or a 1-run defeat.

I am a coach.

I coach through good times, I coach through bad.

I coach when happy, I coach when mad.

It's like a marriage, for better or worse,

I coach when last, I coach when first.

I am a coach.

I coach the aces, I coach the fast,

I coach through arguments where aspersions are cast.

I coach the healthy, and those who are in pain,

I even coach a fan who is partially insane.

I am a coach.

I coach them to field, I coach them to bat,

The beauty of defense; grace on the basepaths.

"Cut down on the errors and hit the line drive,

This is what will keep the dream alive."

I am the coach.

I am the coach of this big beautiful machine

Leader for the Freshman, JV and Varsity team.

I am the coach, the best in the land,

Yes, I am the coach of this one motley band.

I am the coach.

I am the coach, this group of guys are great,

With all of their talent, maybe they can win State!

"How bad do you want it:" I ask the team,

"Let's go out and win it! Let's capture our dream!"

Playyyyyyyy Balllllll!!!!!!!!!!
