I played for 15 years. Mostly co-ed... Great game. I miss it a lot. The higher the competitive level the more running plays there are.

You're not to concerned about that disc anymore? While it isn't rough touch or tackle, the blocking puts a serious load on the spine. Unless you're laying down chop blocks. I played competitively into my 40's. Paying for it now.

No I don't worry about disks anymore. I know they blow out and I also know what meds to take to fix them. My Dr said on my last visit something like, good news the older you get the less likely you are to blow out a disk.

Our team sux. Next year im starting my own team. But I can talk some shit, so much in fact I just got an email telling me to maybe stop talking to the other team so much (I think the word word was chirping). I play D and every time after I catch an interception I yell at the QB to keep passing me the ball or that Ill be open all night. Or if I get a sack I spike the flag which apparently is offensive to some. Im going to keep doing it, Im the only one who scored last week and I play only D.

Maybe your team phones it in because you're such an obnoxious cunt.

Yeah, I do my best.
How does this sound.
"Hey you with the stupid gloves, run the ball my way." or should I use stupid socks instead?People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

I think this is the OP:

I'm unsure of how to begin but I think I know why you're next team might not have enough players and this team ignores you. Originally Posted by Tuckerman

I could not say anything last night because I was getting smoked.

You say it like the kids were buying the trophies for themselves and organizing things. Originally Posted by BmillsSkier
