That is pretty awesome....you must be super proud.  

 

It makes me feel old to hear about your son as a senior.   It seems like we've been following his career on this board for a while now....

 

Thanks, lucky for everyone here he only started playing football his sophomore year in high school.  Never played before that.  He played that one year and stopped playing every other sport.

 

So at least I have only made everyone listen to it for 3 years.  hahaha...I am really proud of him though, thanks.  I think he was like 9 or 10 when we launched JN.  He was a little smaller during those initial tailgates.

I was like where did that sentence just go after I typed it.  Now I found it, embededded in the original post, my bad.  LOL.

 

I don't remember the coaches ever telling him to bring a towel because of sweat.  It happens all the time for rain, snow etc.  But a towel to keep the sweat off your hands.  Fun stuff.

Congrats.

 

Every time I realize that your son is named "Shane", I giggle.

 

Thanks and I get what you are saying.  It is ironic.  That damn Tom Shane ruined a perfectly good name.

I think it is televised but I don't know much about that.  No worries though I will make everyone here read 10000000 updates on the game.  J\K.

Jets might need him if things don't go well in camp.

He has played center and guard.  Not sure he is on the Vlad level though.  :)

The tailgate was good.  I bought a new grill, one of those pop up grills that you can wheel.  It worked out well!  Thanks.

 

Definitely got me pumped for the Jets though.  Can't wait to be at Metlife.

Was that in the APP? Awesome page. Oh btw FDU is in my town haha

 

You live in an awesome town!  I am excited to see him play there, it is about 45 minutes from where we live and everything around FDU seems really nice.

 

That was in the All Shore Media handout they gave out at the game.  Basically a program with rosters, etc for the game.

Congrats to Shane- great honor to make an All star team. Max made one All star team- most wrong prognosticator in the history of sports

 

Frank about that day job.  Definitely make sure you go ahead and keep it.  The comedy circuit isn't ready for you just yet.  :)
