Great Weekend With Brian and Courtney Jacobson

We just had a great vis­it from Bri­an and Court­ney Jacob­son, alum­ni from our last min­istry.

It’s inter­est­ing: we’ve lit­er­al­ly had guests in our house every oth­er week since we’ve arrived. Our rate of vis­i­ta­tion was much low­er in Spring­field, MO. Hmm­mm.…

Also, one of the high­lights of their vis­it was the Stan­ford-San Jose State foot­ball game. We won 63–26! Woohoo!

I enjoyed the game (espe­cial­ly since we stomped the oth­er team), but I was pret­ty dis­ap­point­ed about two things:

1) There were no stu­dents there. Class does­n’t start until Sep­tem­ber 23rd. It just seems lame that at quar­ter sys­tem schools the team has to play their first home game with­out stu­dent sup­port.

2) The sta­di­um was pret­ty rat­ty. I was shocked. I was expect­ing sharp, clean mark­ings on the field. I thought the screen would be high-tech and sharp. Wrong on both counts. It’s not like Stan­ford’s hurt­ing for money–so why the under­im­pres­sive sta­di­um?down­load few good men a dvd
