My Mom’s response
First off, Jack gets the credit for the pick list. I wrote it, based on what he has taught me, what I have learned from CD/TBA and from watching the teams this year. I was the clock watcher and the typist.
As far as the actual picks, they were pretty much no-brainers:
1625 – Einstein, regional winner, and 2 time winner at IRI – pretty simple choice.
330 – There was no steal - they were there for the picking. They were the next logical pick.
70 – High hopes for our own team.
Now secondly, “a new low to lose to a Mom”. Are you kidding me? I cannot let this go by without comment. I would suggest a little culture change is needed here.
Thank you Koko Ed. My husband, Jack and I do enjoy FIRST as a family.
Thank you IKE, the culture that FIRST promotes is one that encourages and accepts every individual’s talents.
Seems like Picone is pretty decent at this.
