This is one of those times when it would definitely help to know someone on your town board. It just makes a difference. If you don't, maybe one of the other parents do and can help, reach out. Failing that, sounds like decision has been made. As 4BillsITB says, don't frustrate yourself, find new fields or different times.

I was thinking this as well. Someone makes a chuck 6 yards down field instead of 5 and automatic first down. Hand checking back and forth and the defense gets flagged for PI. Not to mention the questionable roughing the passer and leading with the helmet when tackling a WR calls.

Actually it doesn't have to be from a punt, but a tee can not be used if going from the ground. Either have to use a holder or lay the ball on its side if going from the ground. Dallas pulled one off successfully (from a punt) back in the 70's or 80's.

Not after every score but certainly a good idea to replace the overtime coin flip with this.

Um...you do know that a team can on-sides kick now after safety don't you? I'm thinking 4th and 30 but I'd be okay with 25. How many times do the bills give up first downs on 3rd or 4th and 15 through the years...way too many in my opinion.

Guess I should have taken the "you would not" in the title as a warning. Nightmares for the next two weeks now.

People went nuts over these two in college. Never got it. Listening to everyone laughing in the TV lounge I'd be wondering if we were smoking the same stuff. They basically ruined British TV for me, never watch it unless it involves golf.

Interesting read, thanks. My father is buried in Holy Sepulchre, Mom will be when her time is up. Dad's death date is not on the stone yet (purchased 25 years ago) as he just died in late October (got the message at the post-Patriots game tailgait.) Mom was born in 1919, Dad in 1918, wonder what people think when they walk by and see those birth dates, probably figure they either got divorced or decided on being buried somewhere else.

Which one and where, Mt. Hope? This guy doesn't put much stock in Cromwell's theory. Sickert wasn't even on the list of suspects (at least not the one in the OP's link)

What an uplifting way to start the day

every year someone predicted mid round one drops to round two. Soon as I read Linstrom's profile I was hoping it would be the case for him. A lot of mocks had us taking Cordy Glenn in the first the year we got him in the second.

Let's see...6 million a year for carrying a clipboard or 12 million a year to be a tackling dummy for 300 lb linemen...

I think a lot of millennials call it the WWW now?

His short stay was completely forgettable.

https://sports.yahoo.com/texas-fires-vince-young-from-parttime-job-194711992.html If you read through the comments at the end someone states that it started as a 100K/yr full time job but he kept missing work so they made it a 50K per year part time job...he couldn't even handle the demands of that. I remember listening to Donald Jones when he was on with Murph talking about a high draft pick that had the worst presence in the huddle of anyone he had ever played with. Donald never let on who it was but it had to be Vince. Mods please note I had this in college football forum and it was suggested that I move it to Stadium Wall. Will try to delete from college football, but I'm not all that tech savvy. Edit: I managed to delete from College Football, feel free to move it back (and blame Gugny who suggested it be moved to Stadium Wall?)

Draft Whitner instead of Ngata Draft Hardy instead of Desean Jackson Draft Maybin instead of Orakpo Draft Spiller with Lynch and Freddie already on the roster Draft Troup instead of Gronk Trade up for TJ Grahm and pass on Russell Wilson Draft EJ Manuel Trade up for a WR that can't stay healthy in the first, then draft a tackle that can't block in the second This regime is in there so these nightmare scenarios don't happen.

Welcome to national sleep deprivation week

Point of Impact, Stephen Hunter (movie Shooter is based on this) anything by J P Hailey / Parnell Hall (same guy) - short, cute/funny mystery novels. Usually just a couple hundred pages.

For those interested, here's a list of the first 230 (as well as some subsequent ones) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_deaths

You are correct. Fixed now

This is why these are controversial opinions ?

No problem with that at all. Problem is with snafu, who wants to eliminate the preceding e in words where x is pronounced x.

Problem is that when a word starts with X the X sounds like a Z.

Coincidentally, Art died of pancreatic cancer.
