I guess some of the local kids were out of school today for some reason and they were playing football in the front yard - one of the kids kept calling “horse collar” penalty. I just shook my head. Who calls penalties on neighborhood football? Lol
Kids today have no clue.

I used to always call for face masks.

Assholes.

My neighborhood was on the cutting edge of getting rid of kick offs to decrease injuries.

At least they were outside instead of playing on their phones.

It’s so easy to pick out the kids that cheer for Bama.

We used to call pass interferences and holding, as well as clipping.

Always had problems with ineligible receivers downfield. Everybody thought they could catch a td on that automatic hut

This brings back good memories. We played flag football with socks hanging out our pockets.

We used to call going for the head or neck.

We were trailblazers ahead of our time.

Yes indeed. It seems like up until we were about 16 or 17 we played tackle and eventually played flag. We just getting to big big and too many trips for broken arms

The only penalty we ever called was pass interference and it had to be pretty egregious.
