I was just thinking

Why is it that parents have such a hard time teaching their children about real life lessons?

The reason I ask is that I work with young men and women everyday all day. Today i had a long talk with one of my youth about how a relationship works. Its sad really the youth are paying the price for the mistakes of their parents.

Parents you have more influence on your kids than you think. Here are some things you can do to prevent your child from getting in trouble.

Don't be afraid to tell your kids the truth about things. If you don't talk to them someone else will.

Set boundaries for your kids they need them.

Kids need parents more than they need a friend. I see to many parents who want to be a friend more than a parent. This is the biggest mistake I see. They're to afraid to say no, because there worried their child will be mad at them.

Teach them the rewards of working hard and earning what they get. I see so many kids that are lazy and commit crimes because they don't want to work for what they have.

Our children our a reflection of us. Everything they learn they learn from us.


Let me explain a little more I work at a Youth corrections facility. I work with the "worst of the worst" or that's what they say. I've never believed that crap. These are kids who have made bad choices. I see a side of them that most people don't. I get to see the hand life dealt them and most of the time it starts with the parents. It bothers me so much that these people get a beautiful gift such as a child and take it for granted. The part that pisses me off is that it takes these kids getting locked up to feel safe and be themselves.

It's my job to fix them.
Here's the cool part, they're not broken they're normal kids.
Here's the secret to what i do to fix them. I spend time with them, I listen, I do homework with them, I watch movies with them and here's the biggest one I TALK to them.

So parents please spend time with your kids and don't take them for granted. Because some of us have to work harder at becoming parents than most.

My Wife

There are a lot of things I can say about my wife, but where to start?

My Wife is the most understanding,loving, person I've ever known. She tells me the truth if I want to hear it or not. To tell the truth i probably wouldn't be able to do anything without her. She does so much for me and I'm not the best at telling her. I want the world to know that she's the reason I can be myself around anyone. She supports even my dumbest Ideas.

Thanks babe for all you do!!



So guys make sure you tell your wives how much they mean to you everyday. Cause if you really think about it. Who are we without them?

11-0 UTES


























Today i watched my Utes go 11-0. I'm so stoked for next week bring it on zoobs! Every year around this time I feel the Savage beast in me come alive. I wait for months as it builds and it all comes to a head for one game UTAH vs TDS(Team down south). The best part is they talk all that smack about the "Quest" and what happens they get beat by TCU. This is my favorite time of year it's the week of RED vs blue, Good vs Evil, and Talk vs Action.




So here we go Zoobs,




Are you ready? you've had two lucky years and now it ends. save all your national championship talk for each other because the truth is it was a popularity contest it wasn't earned. We were the first BCS busters and we had to work our butts off for it does 12-0 ring a bell. so wear your colors and enjoy your last week of bragging. on the 22nd when you step on to our field you'll feel something that will make you doubt yourself. It's the electricity of 45,000 UTE FANS who are all gunning for you. You can try to ignore it or hide. The truth is you should be worried Why you ask?


Because we are true fans win or lose we love our team. where as you only love your team when they win. If you were true through and through maybe I'd like you a little,But your fake so I will continue to hate all things TDS!!!


So I will leave you with this thought: Evil only prevails when good men do nothing and I can assure you we will do something about you B*U!!!!






GO UTES!!!!!
