University of Maryland 1953

Facebook rocks!
Scot A. pposted this picture of his grandparents and father. I love the V for victory! So much more class than we are number one! But they were number one and I have Dumb Dumb Daddy-O's letter jacket to prove it. It has a Sugar Bowl National Champion patch on it.
Look at the joy on their faces. Mr A. looks awesome, he was twenty, strapping, handsome. Talk about the best of times.
I  asked my Dad what it was like winning all those bowl games and he said it was kinda like winning the war. But at the end of the games you knew the season was over and it was OK to celebrate. But after marrying your mother and having you children those things don't mean as much as you might think. It's who you choose to be right now that matters!
