My Uncle Dominates!

Here is my big news out of San Diego... I obviously heard it through my aunt before it was released, but my uncle has been named the new offensive coordinator of the San Diego Chargers, a perennial AFC powerhouse. Prior to that, he had been a running backs coach for the Rams, Seahawks and Cowboys. He also coached extensively in the college ranks (including USC) before making the jump to the NFL.

One reason I am so impressed by Clarence is that he is a totally self-made man. Growing up with 11 siblings and living in a one or two bedroom apartment without a father, I cannot imagine how he made it to where he is today. It really speaks volumes about the power of positive thought and committment. After playing DI football at Houston and then getting drafted and subsequently injured in training camp, he decided to start coaching.

Woop woop, go Chargers!
