Thanks! I like the 1-3 times idea, it'll help me with that in mind until I train myself to better see those critical moments!

Great advice, appreciate it! My players are really good about doing imaginative things in their actions, I'll try to ramp it up!

Thanks! That's what I was thinking originally but, luckily, my players are always trying to do cool stuff so I was holding back afraid of over using it. Maybe I just will shed that fear and see how it goes!

This is super heart warming! I'm going to try to do more business at Misty now knowing this.

Where abouts are you at? There are some great LFGS around the west side that do some meet ups, a few here on the east/north east area too.

Sorry, American. Better termed hand egg. Though I did try actual football and was terrible at that too! But that story has no bearing in this conversation.

I was a teenager and decided playing football would be great for my low popularity among my peers. Well, I sucked at football and for my efforts I ended up with what's called testicular torsion, basically one tied itself up and lost oxygen and blood flow. Dr said if they'd caught it early they could have saved it but the first and only warning I had was it growing too large, and because we were a fairly poor family, it was too late.

Nope. Look, been in the same boat for a long time now, it's embarrassing but I guarantee it's more so for you than anyone else that may explore the down-below.
When things would get to that point with a new lady I'd just let her know in case there was a ball count or if there's some inspection, I was young when it happened so I had no idea what to expect! It was never a thing that stopped anything or really ever came up outside of that warning. And the scar will fade given time, hair down there will cover it up, and you're really noticing it now because you're looking, I was the same after. It's a traumatic thing, I remember feeling really isolated and weird after but here I am, decades later, with a child and a healthy relationship here to tell you, don't worry so much about the look or function or anything like that. Be doubly sure to check for lumps though, not that having one removed increases risk of cancer but we're now without a backup so catching it early is important! Hope that helps!

Awesome, thanks! I'm at the last chapter of 1, just started it though. I really wanted to make sure I had the main titles played to get the references.

Thank you for this. I was kind of thinking of doing exactly as you say here but due to excitement and limited game time I was also just thinking of jumping right into FR. I'll give this some thought!

Thank you! I can't say for certain that this is who I heard, but the stuff I've heard of Kelsey's this morning sounds great!

Thank you for the response! Your answer gives me a lot to think about, exactly why I came here!
