    Default Bill Snyder and his letters-lots of ink here about Brock

    Another write up about Bill Snyder and his hand written letters to players after the game. Much of it deals with the loss to NDSU and Brock. Very good article IMO and from the New York Times.

    Coach is a class act. Genuine as they come. Sure hope the kids that play for him listen to what he has to say and they way he goes about things. You can learn a lot more than just football from Coach Snyder.

    President Reagan used to do this as well. My Great Aunt worked for the administration....she passed away a few years back. Anyway, she was given a hand written letter by the Pres., I think its the coolest thing ever, but I really dig things like that. I am sure someday just like my Aunt's letter BJ grand-kids will find much joy in it!

    One thing I do that I think my kids grand-kids will some day get a kick out of......every time I open a bottle of wine, I write the date and names of everyone I am with on it and throw them in my collection. I have a HUGE Red Wing pot, i throw them in. Anyway, I dont drink a lot, so when we open a bottle of wine its usually for special occasions....again, I get a kick out this type of thing.
