And It Ends In Defeat!

4... 3... 2... 1... Jackson wins Perry looses. Ugh, you do not understand how bad this stinks! After talking "smack" all week about how awesome Perry is and how Jackson will be begging us for mercy, Jackson wins! Here's the back story. I attended Perry Local Schools my whole life; I carry Perry Pride with me wherever I go. I am a panther girl for life. Now I student teach at Perry’s biggest rival: Jackson. A few of the boys in my class play freshman football. For the past few weeks, both of us bragged about the quality of our teams. I thought for sure Perry would come out on top. Well the varsity game ended in defeat for Perry and today I went and watched my students “pound Perry” in another face-off. Sitting on the Jackson side I quietly cheered on my team; I applauded secretly underneath my blanket. Through it all, no luck, Jackson won. Now I’ll have to hear the never-ending “you lost,” “Perry sucks,” and the worst “we told you so” comments. Even though Perry did loose, I am still so proud of my students. They did an awesome job today. Congrats boys!
