We didn't expect Tim to be playing football this year – he played in the Ossining Football Little League from the 2nd through 6th grades – because there was no 7th-8t grade team. Ossining has a junior high school team. <\/p>\n

Then this year they started a 7th – 8th grade little league team, so Tim is in there. The growing pains have been bad, as the team is 0-4 now (full dislosure - I am doing some coaching, which may explain things …). Two initial close losses – 8-6 and 7-0, and then two blowout losses to Blind Brook, the best team in the league. Tim has played OK – he was the only boy to be in on every play in the first three games, and was only out for about three downs on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Anyway, here he is Saturday, with a nice but unfortunately late hit (very marginal call). He is #77 in maroon, on the defensive line. That's me with the end-of-video comment … <\/p>\n
