You said that when last the subject came up. It is different now, in that, although helpful, being in field season isn't required in a lot of guards. It is at Murphy, but not most.
We have a tough show this season. We were bumped up to Scholastic Open class last year. Tougher competition and our music has no measure. The girls have to start counting from the very begining and stay on tempo for four and a half minutes. They hate it, but the judges are eating it up. Halfway through the season and we're at 80.3 and ranked nationally, at this point, third in the nation.
Sorry donkeypoo ... Once I get started on WG, I have to make myself stop. Oh, and one more thing ... (click)!

That's very impressive. Hate it or not...they should be quite proud of themselves!

They don't really hate it, but I could have sold tickets to see their faces when they heard the soundtrack for the first time. But now, we can hear a heartbeat in the music, but the judges can't.
There is a fair amount of pride, especially when they watch my videos of the performances. They are cleaning and polishing for the WGI South Power Regionals at Tampa in two weeks. Big show, there are some 71 units registered and 10 in our class. Several of those 10 are good ... Freedom H.S. especially. Got their work cut out for sure. This will give us a taste of the competition in April at Dayton.

Dude ... You are so jealous!
Daphne H.S. can always use a volunteer. They're a great team with a winning show this year. They took first place last week at Pace H.S. beating Harrison Central ... Which is hard to do.
Get a life!

If you recall ... I told you not to marry her in the first place. But oh no, you know it all.
Age does have it's advantages. There are lots of young people, there are lots of wise people. But you never find young, wise people.
Case in point ...
