Hello, Kris and Nathan! The girls were home this weekend and we just had a huge laugh watching the Sally McClellan interview. She was like a little kid. "I did it! Did you see it?" Ha! Too funny!
Paul J.
Gotta love sports announcers. Eric will get a kick out of these for sure. I wonder if he's ever said stuff like this in his career.
Paul Haam is always good for a laugh. He's like the ditzy blonde of men's gymnastics.
