Back At It

A flight delayed on the runway in Chicago, a longer-than-expected wait for a shuttle van and rain most of the way home from Hartford, Conn., conspired to keep us from arriving at the front (side ;-) door until about 5 this morning. Considering that we left Sister BGA's rental in Colorado a little before 1 p.m., it made for a l-o-n-g day. But it was a great trip and we wouldn't change anything.

Now back to work although first we have to go collect the new Wonder Pup, Griff, from his vacation visit home.

The Monday Dartmouth had a story about concussion protocol in the Big Green program (LINK).

While the BGA home office was empty, the school paper had a story about new NCAA policies taking effect on Aug. 1 regarding regulations for providing food for students, street drug use and certifications for strength and conditioning coaches. The new rules are not expected to have much of an impact at Dartmouth. (LINK)

A reminder that enrollment for the 10th year of BGA Premium is now open. Because there will be little new content before the middle of August, your current subscription will continue to be active this year until Aug. 15.

As an aside, if you haven't visited the site since spring ball, there's a summer story up about an initiative Dartmouth football coach Buddy Teevens has embraced to encourage Big Green student-athletes to play a positive role in the culture on campus.
