The Eclectic Reader, 2.21.2005

It has been a long time since I post an ER, so here we go:

Coaching: I coach the Ladies Basketball Team at my high school. This is the fourth year I have coached. This past weekend we participated in our league's State Championship. We won first place, which completes our undefeated season, 17-0. The girls are hard workers, and play with a lot of intensity. My job it seems is to aim them in the right direction and let them go. Our success has to do with their work ethic. They now get to participate in the regional tournament. It should be really exciting. We will see what happens.

Wake v. Duke: I saw some of the Wake Forest-Duke game last night. I watched what I could in the airport as my family and I were on our way to Colorado. It seemed to be an exciting game. I was sorely disappointed in Duke's performance Wednesday night against Va Tech. They couldn't rebound anything. They didn't seem to want to win. Last night was another team. Redick was amazing. This was probably one of their most important wins all season. If they lost this, they would really be in a pickle. Now they have a chance to place second in the regular season, if Wake loses again. Very proud of the Dukies.

Jet-Blue: As I mentioned, my family and I are on vacation in Colorado. We flew from Boston to Denver on Jet Blue. I had never flown on this airline before. I enjoyed the Direct TV. I can't figure out why other airlines don't include this. Jet Blue is fairly inexpensive. Yet, they have Direct TV for each seat and they have more leg room. I don't know if they can maintain their distinctive for long. We will enjoy it while we can.
