A trick shot highlight reel from a long snapper... - fullmetal - 06-03-2013

Yeah, so the kid is a Menlo-Atherton U$C commit for the c/o '17...but the opening scene shows him wearing a Stanford football shirt.  Ah well.  I wonder if Shaw et al. even looked at this kid.

I'm sorry, but that's kind of sad.

If he wants to come to Stanford, let's not waste a scholarship.

I am not sure if Smith signed a letter of intent with SC or not.  we certainly could use some help longsnapping but I don't think we are investing a scholarship at the position.

I was thinking it looked like we'd wasted a shirt.

What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it shrivel
like a Stanford shirt in the wash?
Or sting like a loss for the fifth straight time
And burn?
Does it stink like too much bronzer on trifling SCers?
Or crust and sugar over
Like a girly drank drunk with same?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load, when seeing the pre (post-)season rankings.

Or does it explode?

I think that Zach Smith's dad is a Stanford alum.  Class of 85.

Yes, Zach's dad is a Stanford alum. He is part of my tailgating group. He has hosted some of the truly great tailgaters in the history of Chuck Taylor Grove. A good guy.

As a graduate of such a fine institution (though Stanford is pretty good too), I feel compelled to note that this is actually a student from Menlo School in Atherton.

Thanks for sharing.

Did I screw something up? :(  I was following the School-City convention.  I suppose I've seen some people use the City-School convention.  Or is there actually a Menlo-Atherton HS?

FM, there actually is a Menlo-Atherton HS (my son graduated from there in 1999). It's public and kids from Menlo Park, Atherton, and East Palo Alto go there. There is also a Menlo School, in Menlo Park, which is private. TC Ostrander went to M-A.
