this football season

This might just be the best possible football season of my life. And I haven't been in the states to be present for it. Here's why:

1. My high school, the Alamo Heights Mules (here's to our blue and gold....) won the STATE championship for the 1st time EVER!!!
2. Wake Forest made it to the ORANGE BOWL, a BCS bowl people!!! So now more people across the nation will have more to say when referring to Wake Forest. "uh, where Muggsy Bogues played basketball"..."uh, where Arnold Palmer attended college"...uh, where Tim Duncan played in college"..."uh, you know, they've got the amazing football team who is playing in the 2007 ORANGE BOWL"
3. The Longhorns made it to the Alamo Bowl, in San Antonio. Some might view it as a disappointment considering we won the national championship last year, but they still had a good year.

My all-time possible best football season would be the following:
1. Wake Forest plays Texas in the National Championship game, in San Antonio, where they decided to hold the national title game, with Wake Forest winning by 3 on a last second field goal.
2. Alamo Heights winning the Texas state championship, at least for the second time (see above, #1).

As the above might be slightly unrealistic, BUT STILL POSSIBLE, I'm going to go ahead and bask in this season's accomplishments.
