Happy fathers day to all the dads out there!

The weekend did not start out so well for us, as we had to miss the soccer match due to the family not feeling to good, but, today they perked up and we enjoyed a great day together.

Hope you all had a good one!

So, I have been invited to this saturday’s DC United game as part of a AST tour promotion, I will be signing autographs in the festival area and I even get to kick out the first ball!

Great stuff!

I hope they don’t find out I support Derby, we kind of had a bad season.

Hope to see you at the game

Its time again to dust off the Golf clubs as Penn State Golf Course host the annual Coaches V Cancer Golf outing.

If last year was anything to go off, it was a great time, and the food on course was great, as they have the best vendors in State College providing their services.

Coach Ed DeChellis and his team have done a great service to raise thousands for such a worthy cause, and i am looking forward to a great day out!

Fore!
