I'm really not one to exalt moral victories, but I can't ask for more than the guy next to me to be able to look me in the eyes and know, without question, that he fought alongside me until the bitter end. That's what a team is made of and that's what Roadrunners are made of.
Bouncing back from adversity is simple, really. All it takes is a network of people who believe and support each other. A team. We take on the San Jose State Spartans this week. They better come prepared because I am part a team that believes.
When my daughter was in high school, she told me about a college friend who always made sure that if she texted one parent she would also text the other because if she did not, one parent would feel left out. I thought this was ridiculous. Now she is in college. "Did you get a text today?" I ask my husband.

I always get butterflies before a game and they always disappear after the first popping of pads. This time was no different and, like always, the game turned into 100 yards and a pigskin.
The European media is calling it the "Miracle of Medinah" after Europe completed a remarkable comeback to retain the Ryder Cup.
If the Buckeyes can contain the Spartan ground game and force them to pass, it could be a long day for Michigan State.
In all honesty, the story of this game really boils down to whether or not the Spartan receiving corps can catch.
Not only am I fortunate to call Eric my quarterback, but even more so to call him my friend. I feel like my job not only is to keep Eric's jersey clean and his facemask grassless but to keep him calm and put a toothy smile on his perfectly tanned face.
Going into the second half, the score will be close, but a FSU defense that hasn't been tested and hasn't played four quarters of football will begin to tire towards the end of the third quarter and the Tigers will put the game away
