We don't usually play on Thursday's, but since the Colt's had a "bye" this weekend, it seems our coaches just couldn't live through a week without football, and they quickly added a new game to our schedule. So we have good news, and bad news. The good news is WE WON! And my Garrett scored two of the three touchdowns! Which is really cool! The bad news is he fell on an already injured knee and burst his bursa sack and his whole knee filled with fluid...ew! (For all you true football fans, this is the same injury that Peyton Manning had last year.) So by this morning, (Monday - since our motto around here is "suck it up", and no one would let me run him to the doctor over the weekend!) I did what all moms of million dollar athletes do, and took him to see Dr. Elrod - official doctor of the Tennessee Titans! Bad news...missing a week of practice, and a round of antibiotic cream to avoid infection. Good news...while we were there 5 Titans players came in to get their physicals, so Garrett got autographs and a glove and towel just used in the game against the Jets! You have to know for an aspiring 11 year old football player, this was worth the injury!
