Every so often, life throws you a curveball. The past few weeks, I've been training for my new job at NTN which I thought would start during the regular football season, as it involves making playcalls during live football games. Of course, I knew college games were included, but I didn't really expect to get called in. Well, today at 10:10pm (nice, eh?) my boss called and I've got to go in Saturday for the Washington vs. Ohio State game. Usually, it'd be no problem - sure, I'll work - need the money. But when you're expecting to play trivia at 5:30pm and then possibly hang out with Scott, my best friend, who is flying in from Pensacola, Florida as he is in the Marines and I might see him once or twice for the rest of the year, then, yeah, it sucks. But, it's my first game, it's the first time I've been called in. How would it look if I couldn't do it? Sure, I'll probably get to see Scott Friday night, and maybe Sunday if he's not busy with family and all, but when life throws you a curveball, you've got to wait on it and then hit it out of the park. Hmm...perhaps watching Bull Durham tonight wasn't such a good idea. Though it does have one of the greatest quotes in a movie ever.
