Treyner has the gift of a great relationship with me and other adults in his life. Who I feel bad for is the boys who may not and what emotional devastation can lead to when not given the proper outlet. How hard core they train, would be like the military booting someone. It is a different kind of mindset being that dedicated to something like a sport at such a young age. Like the difference of those of us who went to college and those of us who studied to become a DR. Whole new plateau. There are boys now on this team that found out they are not comming back with 1 week of finals left (other Red shirt Freshman in other parts of the team) that have no back up plan. That can't afford to stay and now, wonder what they are going to do. Try getting all your financial work and transcripts and stuff done in less than one month to switch out schools. Nick - the boy in the picture with Treyner and the trophy - might tag along now with Treyner to come to Anderson and just fly one way home to see if they would want him to walk on. Either that or he is contemplating the Air Force at this late stage of the game.[/COLOR]I am so sorry that that scumbag did that to Treyner. I wonder if they will be getting rid of the kid from NM as well since he is out of state tuition.
I think NM kid is not the same because since it is a bordering state, they usually get in state reciprocity. Like Wisconsin does for Minnesota and vice versa.
I am so pissed right now for you and Treynoer. I do have a recommendation on who else to contact with your letter. I would be contacting the NCAA so they can look into it as well. Great idea! It is not fair to these kids to give up everything for a team that wanted him and then them turn around and basically dump him because he "costs too much". I could see if he sucked but he doesn't per their own info (yes I looked it up because I had never heard of Fort Lewis other than the military installation in Washington where I was stationed for 3 years).
No he doesn't suck and the thing I am glad about for Treyner is he is going to funnel his anger towards showing Ft. Lewis he is the best goalie and they made a mistake. He is going to forward them his Spring stats and he hopes it works at Anderson and they kick the cr@p out of Ft. Lewis in the future in a playoff game. The other good part is if he can play in the spring at Anderson, it will let him be seen by Lees McRae and some other really good schools in that conference and get him more exposure.
Just remember everything happens for a reason and there is a good reason for this even though we don't know what it is yet (I have to keep telling myself this as well).
I will. Packing and laundry today. I get Skyler today (My PITA sister's daughter. I sent her a letter and it must have done some good because we get her overnight and for 24 hours. I will post pics cause she is the cutest thing in the world. Maybe take her to Princess and the Frog. Ohhhh...that would be fun. A little girl seing a princess movie. I can dress her up and make her mine and do all the stuff Carsyn stopped letting me cooerce her into at 10.Wow. This really stinks, but it can be a good life lesson....tell him to chalk it up to life 101 and let it be the reason he's NEVER like this to anyone.
Totally true and EXACTLY what I said.
There's always something that we can learn in the circumstances of life, this just happens to be one of those carppy circumstances. Now Treynor knows his coach is clearly showing himself to not be a real man, and now he's learned not everyone will do the right thing.
As we've talked about...you can't make other's always do the right thing, we just get to be the example of doing the right thing the best we can and move on.
I know. Hence we covered his butt and now he knows to watch out for himself always and being respectful and being stupid are 2 different things. Smile and nodd and have a plan. Always.
Love you lady, don't let it get to you either. There's a vacation to be had and you fought long and hard for a good time, so have it and can the rest of it because it's not worth letting it ruin your wonderful vacation.
I know right! The sign up sheet was posted on Wed. He left on Wed. and not a thing was given as an appology about not being there or a reason.
When the old coach left to play in India, we did not hear from him for almost a month before we found out he left. It was summer so I thought he might not be by his phone or on a vacation etc. Now I know that since he was in negotiations, he was limmited on what contact he could have. That's why I wonder if that plays into this. If it does not and he just went for a Holiday for Christmas - he's a complete dink. Not a single excuse.
Treyner's birthday is Monday. I am going to put money in one of his friends accounts so she can take him out to dinner and buy him a cake. We will have a celebration once he is in Florida and we are all together. It seems so strange that it was one year ago right now we were on the trip to celebrate his 18th birthday and Baylor was fresh out of his surgeries and everything.
One of my best friends is from Norway. She and I spent 24 hours a day together my senior year when she came a s a foreign exchange student.
She is having he second child, a boy, via c-section on the 16th. How crazy is that? Our first sons are only 19 years apart!
Her daughter is not quite 3.I will have a good chance of being a Grandma and she will be going to his first day of school.
That reality - made me glad of my life. My place. Because I toiled with the idea of more kids. Batted back and forth about just one more. I must have been on crack. I will be 42 when Baylor grdauates, God willing, and will have the ability to travel, visit friends and my kids with no restrictions to school and a schedule for anyone under 6'6. Sounds better to me right now than diaper duty 24/7.
I will check in later!
For anyone who has done on-line check in. I am a virgin to the whole thing. Know nothing about it at all. Can you request a room/location on line or what? Since we are getting there late that Friday- I want to try my best to reserve a room in our favorite location at CBR.
Thanks guys for any advice.
It starts with the sniffles. Looks just like the common cold. Don't take it lightly or it could be too late.
The visual of him heading to his doctor to explain his possible malady though, and the doctor laughing at him is the type of humiliation I am looking for. 
Sunday also and told him to get 2 pairs of jeans packed in his suitcase for Colorado from the basket in his room. That meant 2 more for Florida and 2 for Christmas in Iowa (Yes packing 3 different bags at once for 3 different locations so spreading out the clothes.)
