NIRSA Flag Football

Rhode Island was okay, I really don't have much to tell other than my near death experience. If oyu live in the Hartford, CT are, you know what I mean. There is a left side exit from the I-91 Southbound that connects to the I-84 Eastbound and it's a really sharp turn. I was the navigator in the front passenger seat. I saw this ramp on the GPS, but looked straight and neither me nor the driver could see it ahead straight. We slowed down a little as were were going the limit then and the turn sneaked up on us and forced the driver to make a sharper turn than that of the curb and was able to straighten out in one simultaneous motion. Had he not turned as much, we could have either ended up in the Connecticut River or the van may have not functioned properly. As far as the ride back, the van didn't give us problems, but the axle (we think) did have some issues on the way there.


For the third straight year, we are hosting a regional tournament here at SC for intramural flag football. Springfield College has to reapply for this tournament to be held here. I should be officiating and plan on applying for the tournament at University of Maryland. As much as I love their campus, I am trying to have that trip used for practicum class out-of-class hours. The contact information is provided here.

I don't know what I am doing for tomorrow, so stay tuned!
