Why we don't kick in youth league around here!

I've selected several Saturdays to work youth this fall as my son is on varsity and thus I'm off most Fridays for the next two years. I had cut youth ball entirely out of my schedule a few years back because of much of what is being discussed here. The few I have worked the last few years I quickly began quietly cursing myself for being sucked back into the morass.

Fortunately, in our area, the kids are still pretty well behaved. The coaches are all mostly named Stevebillwalshvince Lombardispurrierbellichick however. We have the occasional fan-parent pop-off but nothing too aggressive so far. All in all, its not been too bad this season BUT tomorrow is another day.

I just about lost soda thru my nose...well played, sir.

Oh...and that stint 3 weeks ago, in 2 of the 4 games we had QB dump ball into bench with no ER within a mile.....had about 4 different instances of "HE WAS OUT OF THE POCKET!!!".

That stuff will likely be "coach officiated" in 5-10 years at the current rate.

In Ohio no one kicks off until Freshman year in high school. Teams start on their 35.
