“Come spring, the trees give us gifts. Green bits that helicopter down from above. When they land, Joey and I follow, retrieve them and bend the blades until they touch, releasing the glue inside so we can stick them onto our noses and call each other Pinocchio. This beats anything in my yard. Gathering buds that die and fall was fine once. But chasing helicopters and having a green nose is better.”

“How many men are on the football field at a time?” he
asked us.
Eleven on a team, we answered. So that makes twentytwo.
“And how many people are touching the football at any
given time?”
One of them.
“Right!” he said. “So we’re going to work on what those
other twenty-one guys are doing.”
Fundamentals. That was a great gift Coach Graham gave
us. Fundamentals, fundamentals, fundamentals. As a college
professor, I’ve seen this as one lesson so many kids ignore, always to their detriment: You’ve got to get the fundamentals
down, because otherwise the fancy stuff is not going to work.”
