My Dinner with Luke 2016

My nephew Luke reached his 11th birthday Tuesday, and tonight I got to play the "fun uncle" and take him out to dinner for his Big Day. He chose Chuck-a-Rama, where we had a most enjoyable meal.

In talking to him, I realized that he knows a heckuva lot more about football than I'd given him credit for, and that he wants to eventually play high school ball and then, afterward, in college. He's an excellent student in his fifth-grade class and is overall a wonderful kid.

Am I biased when it comes to my nephews and nieces? Maybe a bit. But in this case (and in 11 others), it's true.
