Open Tryouts

I would fold up like a lawn chair the first time someone plowed over me in a tackling drill.

Ha ha... nice one... "I'm a man!"

Hogdawg is signed up and is checking eligibility, Sonny wants his blazing speed!

Dang right. I know I can punt further than the kid we had punting last year. Probably 80% of the people on this board can.

Some of our fans need to show up and get run over a few times, so they'll figure out where they stand in life.
Getting rolled up like a bag of tater-chips might help their demeanor around the tailgate on gameday.

Do you have a particularly nasty tailgate? Ours is always pleasant - and all other I visit.

Now back in 06, it might not have been so nice....

No thanks, I got run over enough times playing middle school football. I'm pretty sure I would be killed on a college football field. Seriously.

There is no doubt in my mind that you would average 46.6 yds. per punt for our football team in 2010. Now that your 40 time is down to 4.35, not only would you punt the football but you would deep-snap the ball to yourself, punt if far down the field, & force a fair catch on the receiving end. In addition, as the kickoff specialist, you would kick 95% of KO's at least 5 yds. deep in the end zone, very high & very, very long. If only you would have been given a chance to handle ALL the punting & kicking when you were at Tech in the early 1950's, you would now be one of the great TECH LEGENDS of all time & I would be even more thrilled to sit by you in your chairback box on the 50-yd. line.

Thank you "Mr. Miyagi".

But I --your faithfull servant grasshopper-- couldn't have experienced ANY of that success back in the early 1950's without your superior coaching skills, coach. You and I would have made a great team. Wax on, wax off.

No. Speaking in generalities.
When things aren't going as well as they could on the feild, we fans have a tendency to pout about what should have been and criticize a little bit.

Nothing like a full body check to dust off your perception of reality. :icon_wink:

I saw the flyer in the intramural center. I'm goin in! Well, at least for the info session March 10th at 4 PM. I always wanted to try and walk on, but school and the hospital got in my way each spring.

I don't need to get a turf sandwich to complain! We buy the right to complain.:icon_wink:
