Yesterday the Dunn County News had a huge front page spread with pictures of the Menomonie High School football team. Open to page 3 and you can see more pictures. And this was just for an intra-squad scrimmage! Football is king here in Menomonie!
I'm not complaining about that. I avidly support the team. I'm one of those guys that gets to the games and hour early to make sure that my favorite seat is still available. I have a Menomonie Football hooded sweatshirt that I proudly wear to all of the games. I take it as hard as anyone when the home team loses (which, to be honest, doesn't happen very often!)
My youngest son has now been officially inducted in to the Menomonie Football Program. He'll be a freshman in the fall, and football practices are in full-swing. He'd like to be the quarterback, and I really hope he gets the chance to show what he can do.
I haven't been following the Packers' pre-season very carefully. My dish doesn't get me the local channels...I get the networks out of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Hence, I get more Vikings coverage than I can tolerate. At least I'll get to watch the two Packer games when they play the Vikings!
