Last Saturday there were three major football games on TV.\u00a0 The SEC, the Big 10 and the Big 12 all had games that helped determine conference championships.\u00a0 I got home in time to see the end of one and flipped the channels to watch the other two who played at the same time.\u00a0 I missed most of the early game because of a conflict.\u00a0 At twelve noon, the Weatherford Lions game began twenty miles from home. My great grandson, Crawford Graham Kennedy is the Lion Quarterback.\u00a0 Never mind that the team is made up of seven-year-olds, it was the most important game of the day.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He passed for one touchdown and ran for another score. By the way, he also excels in basketball and baseball.\u00a0\u00a0 He is quite an athlete.\u00a0 I\u2019d like to claim DNA, but I would have to share that claim with his Dad, a college football player and present Coach of the Lions. \u00a0I wonder if I could at least claim, Proverbs 22:6, \u201cTrain up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.\u201d\u00a0 Starting sports so early in life could cause burn-out about the time he hits his prime.\u00a0 Fortunately, he also loves his church activities, enjoys reading his Bible, and praying every night with his parents, and faith has no burn-out feature.<\/p>\n
