Brandon's been coaching the varsity boys' basketball all season. Last year, the boys were 0-5, with their best game being a loss by 60 points.

Only school use. Every weekend in Discovery Bay, there's an animal adoption event. Since Brandon has wanted a dog for so long, we decided to foster one for a bit to get a taste of what it was like. Spoiler alert: He thought it was too much responsibility.
