He came out to the bar after the game with everyone!
I'm back from Orlando getting ready to go to Sydney. I'm still on cloud nine from the bowl game. I can't believe we won! It was awesome. From the minute we took the field, we beat them. We beat them on offense, defense, coaching...even our managers were better than theirs. There is something about schools from Florida. Miami, is known as a school of thugs. Florida State has academic problems. Florida is no better. Their players are all also thugs looking to run their mouth and hurt someone. I'm so happy we beat them. I hate Ohio State, but Florida is now up there on my list of schools I hate...I can't believe I'm applying there. Anyways, when we finally knew the game was ours, the sidelines we nuts. I had my camera out and took tons of video. The players started chanting, "Lloyd take your clothes off, Lloyd get naked." It was nuts. I still can't believe I got to be on the sidelines. After the game we all stormed the field and ran around like we had not won a bowl game in five years. Normally after the game, we have to clean up the sidelines. We didn't. We

celebrated with the team, ran into the locker room, and enjoyed the win. All season, we kept hearing about how the bowl trip would make up for all the times we got yelled at or had to stay late at the building. Well it did, the trip was far better than I ever thought it would have been!!

I forgot to mention...don't ever step into a fire ant hill. I accidentally did that in Florida, and it was the worst Experience I've had since I ran out of gas in Ohio. I didn't even notice it until they were swarming my leg. It was terrifying. My whole leg was burning. I know no one would do it on purpose, just be careful when you are in Florida. They also have alligators, and the Sizzler. Don't go near either. One eats you from the outside in (the gator), and the other eats you from the inside out (the Sizzler). Florida is full of dangerous things.

I'll be in San Francisco next weekend and I don't really know what to go see. If anyone has any advice on what to see, let me know!

Coach Dan
So Coach Dan, you are the one calling all the plays? Well, I will now direct all of my hate mail to you instead of Lloyd and DeBord for our conservative play-calling. Thanks for letting me know.
