Heartbreaker!!!

Football can be the greatest joy and also the greatest heartache. As Ohio State Buckeye fans we've experienced a lot of heartbreak the last couple of years. I often ask why do we do this to ourselves? The agony of defeat and the suspense of every close play is a killer. But, Beckham with a pom pom, doing cartwheels, and yelling OSU cheers is priceless. I took some of these pictures and then forgot to post them of Beckham and McKinley cheering during the OSU vs USC game.


Today Mckay's team lost in a heartbreaking loss to the Cowboy's. The boys had a great season and a win today would have put them into the playoffs as the number two team. But, because of the loss and the many close teams we ended up missing the playoffs by two points. At first the game looked like the Cowboys were going to take charge but, we fought back and came on strong in the end. We were threatening to score for the lead but, the clock just wasn't on our side. Cowboys won for a final score of 22-20. The boys were sad but, the season isn't over. We have one more consolation game next week. Mckay has had a great season and has enjoyed his coaches and the many friends he has made while playing football. Here is a clip of one of his touchdowns today ( I couldn't get every play I was to busy yelling).
