We had a 6th grade team and a 7th/8th grade team when I was in middle school. Not having a team at all for 6th graders is pretty stupid. For one, they're like 12, they should still have a place to play even if they suck. Two, a lot of those kids could develop a little later and having one less year playing is going to hurt the high school team they feed into.


None of that excuses the parents whining, but it's pretty stupid the coach only takes a two deep for the entire team

Playing football sucks arse anyways. At least in the South. Playing baseball and basketball was always way more fun and enjoyable.

What are the chances that you guys actually selected the top 40 kids trying out?


Don't worry Chad... when Jaxxxxxxson hits his growth spurt and stops being afraid of getting hit... he will be a good football player.

My oldest son played baseball 1 year. His 2nd year he was told he didn't make the team. He got in my truck telling me he got cut. Then he said, "thank God, I hate baseball"

I could only laugh. This was probably 5th or 6th grade.

They're sixth graders. They don't need to be doing intensive strength training.

Why does he only take 40-45 kids?

Does he not like money?

Sign them up for a rec team.

Buy a football and a tackling dummy and some cones. Do drills in the backyard.

Have them get in better shape.

Have you seen my son rush the passer and almost knock the QB's head clean off? No! So shut the hell up!

this is obvious political bullshite. lame arse hand timing 40's isn't even close to accurate. You can't measure jaxon's speed without the ball in his hands getting chased by a defender.

Very few 6th graders make the team. Most of the team is 7th and 8th graders.


That just seems like a horrible setup to have 6th graders playing on the same team as 8th graders. That's what the parents should be bitching about, they need their own team.

Let me guess parents blamed it on "Politics".. or because they "heard" so and so donated a TON of money ...then they will pick one of the last 5 players selected and let everyone know what their kid could do better.... this has been the blueprint for as far back as I know
