I spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and stern smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was ESPN—and a remote control could solve that problem. Except, my boss just hired Ford as the new head coach of the Treasure State Wildcats. This season, not only will I be forced to watch him from the sidelines, but avoiding him will now be impossible because we work together. Maybe I haven't forgotten Ford. Maybe I'm still dreaming about what we could be. Maybe he hasn't forgotten me either. But these “maybes” will not change the fact that we are not destined to be together. Maybe it was once mine. But from now on, I will only call Ford Ellis Coach.
