Scoach

MJ Acosta filled in for Kay Adams on Good Morning Football this past week. I’m not sure what it was but it took me a while to wake up once I was seated in my wheelchair and already had turned the TV on. I’m not sure what it was, the weather or something, but I was completely groggy for long time all last week! There were so many times that I wanted to text into the show but I was just too tired to do it. I wanted to comment on Paul Rudd‘s victory for the Nerd Bowl but I just couldn’t.

Sean had an orthodontist appointment Thursday morning and he saw what I was watching before he left. He came into the living room and asked, “Who are these people?!” Shaun O’Hara and Mike Garafolo were also filling in as well as MJ. I just kind of grunted at him and told him, “They’ll be back” talking about Kay, Kyle, and Peter.

The one thing I regret not commenting on on Twitter happened on Friday. I’m not even sure what they were talking about because I had my arms tucked into my sweatshirt and was hadn’t been looking at the TV when MJ said, “Scoach.” I couldn’t even laugh out loud because I was still kind of groggy in the morning but I really wanted to!

I remember when I was working out at Barwis with Michael one time. We were at one end of the gym doing squats and then we needed to go to the opposite side of the gym to use the table. He pushed me in my chair because it was quicker than me pushing myself. As he was doing this, he asked me a question and my response was, “Just a scoach.”

That was the first time I heard Michael laugh really hard! I don’t remember what I was talking about but it WAS just a scoach! I enjoy hearing people laugh, the kind of laugh where they’re kind of surprised at themselves that they’re laughing so hard. That was the kind of laugh I heard from Michael that day. I dug it. It made me smile!

I thought of that time when I heard MJ say, “Scoach” and I wanted to comment on it but I just was not feeling well enough. It was years ago that I made Michael laugh so hard and I don’t remember what we were talking about. I appreciated that MJ brought that memory to my mind but I am still looking forward to Kay being back on the show on Monday.
