Thanks for story
Thank you for writing the excellent article about the Commission On
Responsible Fatherhood in your November 1996 edition, anmments from our DADS
support group. I have received two inquiries, one coming from Jeff York in San
Antonio, Texas including comments from our DADS support group. I have received
two inquiries, one coming from Jeff York in San Antonio,
Texas. We have written to each other and have become
quick pen pals. He sent me a copy of your article for my files.
We have recently been invited to join with the National Congress of Fathers
and Children. The Florida state chapter, based in Tallahassee, is headed by
Robert A. McNeely who is a commissioner with CORF.

Thanks again for the great article about CORF.

Sincerely,

Robert A. Zeller
President, NFCC, Tampa Bay Chapter

A reflective fan
This is a call to all true Seminole Fans: Let's support our team, I mean
really support them, NO MATTER WHAT.
After that dis at the Sugar Bowl - I did some reflecting on myself as a fan,
(and I believe this could extend to everybody elsappointing loss at the Sugar
Bowl - I did some reflecting on myself as a fan, (and I believe this could extend
to everybody else).
Let's face it - we've been spoiled.
I know that I'm an FSU fan even if our team should ever go 0-11. But I also
know that I've had incredibly high expectations at the beginning of every season.
How could I not? The success we've had over the past 10 years has been
unbelievable!
When our teams seem to waltz through the ACC, have an 80 percent success rate
against Florida, and are now beating Miami, finish in the Top 4, etc., etc., how
can you help but be spoiled? We make it look so easy.
But it's not that easy. And it's wrong to expect that success every season.
We can hope for it, but we should not demand it. It's about making our
expectations more flexible.
I think we all need to have a brand new attitude and outlook towards our
team. I mean, why do we love the Seminoles? It's not because they win all the
time. It goes much deeper than that.
We just need to throw our unconditional support behind a team that represents
a university, a coach, a town (in Tallahassee) and a tradition; all of which we
love very much.
