Word of the Week Wednesday

Hello my Wednesday raviolis.  Fall is just around the corner and this means late summer and fall football games.  Yea!  I love to watch school football...more than pro. The players are more intense and always enjoy learning how the game is played.  So today's word of the week is:

"receiver"

Why receiver you say? 

Well, there are many fun positions in football, but receiver is one of those "glory" positions that I like to watch.  Visually, to watch a receiver start making fast tracks down a football field, running full bore for yards and then lifting their hands into the air to capture that flying pigskin, catching it and then landing for either major downs or a touchdown is exciting.  This is when the spectators will jump from their seats, hands waving and voices shouting, GO GO GO!!!!

A receiver is a mad runner.  Like a jackrabbit, they hop and run and scatter all over the field avoiding tackles with their fancy footwork.  It is fun to watch.


Here is grandma-ma's first sentence using the word receiver:

I understand that a certain ravioli was asked to be a receiver on his football team; I hope he learns to enjoy the position because grandma-ma wants to hear how fast he runs.  Have a wonderful Wednesday my ravs.  Grandma-ma loves you.
