Hello all. I graduated in 1991 -- hence my clever Cardboard ID. I lived in Rinconada with Cory Booker, then Sterling Quad, Manzanita (where we frequently played pool with Chris Walsh and Andrew Vlahov), and then back to Sterling Quad.
My greatest football memory from those years was obviously Big Game 1990, a victory that I celebrated by rushing the field and then climbing the pole that holds the net behind the goal posts. I fell and broke my arm, but it was a small price to pay for such a glorious victory.
I teach middle school English, which is just about the best job in the world, and I also coach both the boys' and girls' basketball teams at my school. And here's the best part -- last year I transfered to Stanford Middle School, named after Senior, not Junior. Everything in life is a circle. My family and I (two daughters and a son) live in Long Beach, CA.
I write a website called GoMightyCard.com, the name of which is a reference to what my friends and I always called the football team during our time on the Farm. Writing about the team for the past year has been almost as fun as watching them. Like many have already said, it's almost too much to believe.
One last thing -- I love the Cardboard, as much for the people as the subject matter.

Please clear the field! The game is not over!
