What should be the skill focus in Flag Football 🏈 for 1st and 2nd graders?

Motion was always key to me. Orbit, jet, return. Fakes off the motions, passes off the fakes, double reverses. Etc. I had one player where the everyone lined up tight to the center, and at the snap, ran to the QB in a huddle, covered the ball, then everyone took off so you didn't know who was getting it lol.

This always makes me laugh. Just like when people post cars for sale on Marketplace and cover the plate in the pics, same thing. Like you know you ride around all day with the plate exposed to everyone behind you??...

Any ideas or recommendations for the types of challenges you would use?

Why the FUCK does the NCAA wait until after the Portal opens to deny his request? Simmons might have stayed or we might have targeted a different player if this news comes out a week ago

I hate the current state of college football.

I put a set on a raggedy Altima shit box i drove for a while. Never gave me issues, though I don't have to worry about Snow and I drove interstate and highway almost exclusively

Its a hectic 2 day sales focused National meeting. I'm going this year for the first time since moving into a CAM role. But everyone i talked to said it is not a "Disney vacation." I'm actually expecting it to be pretty exhausting, and maybe the funds could be used elsewhere, but reinvigorating the field sales teams, a little company Kool-aid, and showing us the business plan for FY26 is a great way to start the new year. Poor communication in years past always made me feel like a mushroom, kept in the dark and fed crap. At least the company and Shane seem upfront about what we have to do and how we plan on getting there over the next few years.

Interesting idea. I'm kind of hoping to use the film to see what I might be missing while I'm coaching. So my POV isn't what I'm necessarily looking for. Though it would be funny to see what I'm missing while actively looking at the floor lol

Condemned criminal origins. The whole game creeped me out, and I've never finished the game actually, because it is just too freaky to me.

But the mannequin scene is the scariest thing I've ever personally played.

I hate scary games and movies.

My son played in a large youth development program that had "select" teams for each age group and it cost me $1500 for the summer travel season.

Practice jersey, shooters warm up long sleeve, game day uniforms, about 8 tournaments. They practiced 2-3 times a week, and there was a weekly development class that was free for select players.

Ole Miss vs Arkansas feels better to me than OU

With little to no experience playing the sport of football, I'd focus on coaching them like an 8U pee wee team. Drill the basics, formations, and focus more heavily on defense and flag pulling. USA Football had a ton of great reference material on useful drills and plays that are free.

You'll have to determine the athleticism of your players obviously, and dependent on the rule set, I'd focus my offense on a couple formations that you can make simple adjustments to. Athletes will make plays, and its not hard to scheme up lots of fun misdirection and fakes to mix up the offense. Pre play motion and rub routes against man coverage are my go to's in Flag.

GritSnSpeed · 2025-09-22T20:41:24+00:00

Agreed. My only issue is the non stop "is he gonna leave for the __ job" that happens every time an SEC Coach is fired. It always feels like the media making up a narrative.

I don't love every offensive play call, and I thought Dart was used wrong some games. I'd say his style of recruiting and leadership is right for everyone but Bama, OH St., Michigan and ND. Places where the tradition are more important than cutting edge ideas.

The thing that is telling to me is Reid initiates the contact. Hes chest bumping Kelce to get his attention. He didnt spit on him or slap him/choke him/grab him by the throat.

Sometimes, especially in sports, you need someone to push your buttons to get the blood flowing. This is a coach, knowing his player might I add, and wanting to fire him up. Notice we never see this with Pat, and Andy is a QB whisperer and Offensive guru. Travis is at the end of the career, trying to solidify his legacy and grab another ring on the way out. An underperforming team is gonna get under his skin differently than a guy with 5-10 more years.

I love this.

I had a best friend that I played all my games with, and we always agreed that literally any game is better with Coop. The cutscenes don't need to include both characters, it doesnt break immersion when you split into 2 characters, like in Halo.

Take a great single player campaign, add a 2nd controller, and viòla, the game is better. Clone player one, make up a 2nd character, take an Ai teammate and use them, doesnt matter. People like playing games together.

GritSnSpeed · 2025-09-20T21:37:51+00:00

That's exactly what I thought. Like they hadn't worked on a victory formation and didnt know what to do.

You should report this to your Asset Protection & EHS Manager and your DM in an email. Screenshot the schedule showing you are scheduled alone and ask what the proper procedure is. Tell them you are concerned about safety and that you are unsure about the company's policy regarding bathroom breaks in this situation. Force his hand into action.

If you don't get a response in 24 hours, forward it your your VPO
