About Me
- George
- I have been married to Laurie for over 50 years. Our oldest son, Andy, lives in Las Vegas, Nevada with his wife Jenn and their son Kevin. Our youngest son Mike lives in Camarillo, California with his wife Vanessa and their kids Jacob and Mary. Although I retired from teaching in June of 2007, the 2015 football season marked my 45th year of coaching football at five high schools in Southern California's Ventura County - Thousand Oaks, Westlake, Rio Mesa, Buena and Newbury Park. In 2008, I started coaching in Europe. My EuroBall stops have been in Catania, Sicily in 2008 & '09, Hässleholm, Sweden in 2010, Thun, Switzerland in 2012, Lyon, France in 2012-13 with the 12-0 National Champion Bron-Villeurbanne Falcons, Murcia, Spain in 2015, Rivas, Spain in 2016, Upplands-Väsby, Sweden in the Spring of 2016 & 17, in Mexico & Austria to coach the Europe Warriors in 2017, 18 & 19 and finally in 2018, 19 & 20 in Varese, Italy. Join me as I explore and chronicle my newest adventures coaching American football in Europe. My European touring also included a 500 mile Pilgrimage Walk on the Camino de Santiago in Spain in 2010.

Well, under the Bad News - Good News category:
Bad: Looks as if the Catania fans have a history of trouble with the other football...I hope this does not make its way to Football Americana.

Good: Another Festival---From February 3rd to 5th. Catania celebrates its patron saint with one of the largest religious festivals in Sicily.

Good times,

So have you tried the kiwi gelato yet? That's usually one of my favorites, although I tend to stick to the chocolate most of the time.
Dear Coach,
I took some time last night (as it was MLK Day and a day to reflect) and sketched out what I think might just be the spark to get your offense to practice. I know it inspired me each and every practice (as a WR).

PS. I'm working on some defense inspiration :-)

Yea, I get the same stuff at Trader Joe's! Who's got the time to fly to Italy every time you're "Jonesing" for gelato.
No offense to our NATO allies and partners in the War Against Terrorism...They make some great frozen desserts.

Haven't tried the kiwi gelato yet, will sometime today.
Soccer violence in Europe...imagine that! American football...the gentler, kinder game!
The Festival of Sant'Agata is HUGE in Catania, only 10 days away. May have to stay up 72 straight hours to fully appreciate it!!!
The Delaware Wing-T Buck Sweep brought a tear to my eye.
