    Maybe I am, but your mom certainly is.

    Funny, my mom said your A-game was so quick, she didn't even get to trigger the stopwatch.

    The key to getting to North Shore is to go up the hill and keep going; kinda the opposite of this thread.

    The silence following our Women's Sabre '08 Olympic triumph taught us where stand in the sports world.

    My sense is that the current parental over-involvement, including transcontinental or even transoceanic trips, is directed towards college admission. If not so, why the huge post-collegiate drop-out?
