Grand Prix Final (Seniors) Day One Thoughts
Well, Day one of the Grand Prix Final is over and I think it was a pretty successful day - no complete disasters although there were noticeable mistakes here and there. Broken records and season and personal bests and some absolutely amazing skating left me quite happy at the end! Can't wait to...
2008-09 US Yearbook: Pairs Edition
The second part of the 2008-09 Yearbook takes a look at the American pair crop. The American pairs are becoming that kid in class who the teacher just couldn't reach, although she or he had such high hopes for them. Let's hope this year goes a bit better. There are two US Skate America berths...
Ruminations on Graduation and Memorial Day...
...a little over two years ago, on a beautiful and sunny Friday afternoon, I both graduated from the University of Texas and was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army. Delaying my military service to get my law degree, I've been lucky enough to celebrate with the UT...

Here's to the Seniors
Every year, senior day comes and goes. For half of the football team, they will get to experience Senior Day at home against the hated Ducks. It is their last time to play in front of Beaver Nation. It's the last home game in front of the fans that have been rooting for them for the last 4-5 years....
When Does This Year Become Next Year? This and other questions ...
We're all great at parsing every move by every coach and every player. It's one of the things that's fun about blogs and message boards, too. The game gets played or the recruit gets recruited and then we sit around and try to figure out what happened after the fact. Well, that's all well and...
