Waiting for the Call
My son, Jay, is now an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his career. July 26th was the first day that veteran free agents could be called. I tried not to think about when the call will come but in my heart, I keep hoping it will be soon.
NFL Moms on the Field
Anyone who uses the term “dumb jock” has never played football! That term is really an oxymoron. You have to have a quick mind, quick feet and a lot of stamina to play football and be successful at it.
Tressel – The Other Side of the Story
My son was in Coach Tressel’s first recruiting class. I have had the joy of watching him lead him and the other team members. I have seen him take time to ensure that family came first.
Happy Mother’s Month
This morning my dear friend, Leah Wheeler, sent me a text that read “Instead of May being the month with “Mother’s Day” I’m proposing May to be Mother’s Month!

Spring Break!
They say “When we make plans, God laughs at them!” I am sure God got a good laugh at my attempt to schedule my three sons for a group picture and to take a short trip during Spring Break. After all, I am a sports mom which means that training and team activities tend to take over the schedules.

Clock Management
by DJ the Football Mom When our middle son was a senior, his team played a rival high school in what was the “game of the season”. The rival school was favored to win and the stands were full. We were down to the last 12 seconds in the game and we could win with [...]
Raising the Bar
I cannot believe it has been a week since we had Jay’s First Annual Life Skills Camp (www.JayRichardson98.com). During the last six weeks, I spent an average of 10 hours a day with all the details involved. It was worth every hour of phone calling, internet researching, coordinating and meeting. One young man walked up [...]
Spring Ball!
