His school team. They just put the school name and shirt color for team name. I'm just a spectator for his stuff. Wonder if I need to help setup any fields Saturday for the tackle league that I'm on the board for. I used to coach in it, but with the format change from games to scrimmages, I decided not to anymore.

Ah, cool. We’re still doing NFFL. I used to dream of kicking back in the stands and just watching. Couple of seasons of my son being the only kid capable of scoring in their vapid offense finally frustrated me enough to take over at OC. This year I’m HC. Once he goes to tackle and is around better coaching I’ll hopefully be able to go back into the stands.

My mistake thinking you could answer a simple question like a normal person.

I read about that this morning. I’m actually not super aware of the song. It’s a gap. Never heard it come up at Thanksgiving but that’s a thing.

I’m sure I’ll listen later and remember and connect to it.

Don’t. It’s probably nostalgic if you’re an ex-hippy. Otherwise, it’s a waste of about 20 minutes.

a work test with trick questions... atleast you're getting paid for them to waste your time.

finished up my mandatory training on monday. thankfully i had the good ones left. 2 you could take a pre-test and upon getting 100% don't have to view any of the materials. the other i was mostly able to click through the slides to get to the test, had to wait and click on some boxes along the way, but way better than the ones that make you sit through the whole thing before you can click next.

In Indiana I basically got accused by the new HS coach for the crappy school as being Nick Saban in the league and hurting his program while I made my alma mater really good. I mean I did have my worst regular season last year with 2 losses and finished 3rd in the regular season. I then went out and won the playoffs for the 2nd time in 3 years with 3rd straight championship appearance.

that was pretty unnecessary, most of us clocked you as a dullard 5 posts in, the least he could have done was answer the question.

yeah, the ones with questions throughout the presentation piss me off. Haven't had any yet where you could pre-test ouf of the wasted hour of slides. That would be nice.

i feel like you should demand we call you coach instead of basement bias.

I always thought it was a song about a drug dealer.

Ours always had a "pre-test" to prime your interest about what you didn't know.

That didn't work, either.

No, it’s a long, rambling song/story about two hippies (one of whom is Arlo Guthrie) getting in trouble for illegal dumping. I guess I’m not of that generation, but I don’t get the appeal.
