December 2 was a memorable day. Gail and I drove down to San Diego to attend the Chargers/Bengals game. We met up with the Timboes and family for a tailgate party prior to the game. Joe Pistoia joined us. Then, we took our field passes, courtesy of Marvin Lewis (head coach of the Bengals and Rick's friend) and worked our way down to the field, where we met up with Joe and his son, Tyler. While on the field, we got to observe professional athletes up close and personal. Wow, their size and athleticism is incredible. While on the sideline, Marvin Lewis came over to say hello. I also had a chance to talk with Mark Carrier, former Poly, USC, and Chicago Bear great who was a student of mine at Newcomb! And yes, he remembered me from the late '70s. What a day!
