luckily enough for you, you’ve got a Son that was born to be a QB. Like every other coaches son in the history of 11-13yo flag football teams
My son can throw, but not well enough to be qb and definitely not well enough if someone is blitzing in. Plus he takes after me and is on the shorter side of the group :rotflmao:

Can you have a blocking back? Usually if rushers need to start 7 yards back from the LOS, you can’t block.
This is correct.

can you Qb run? that makes a big difference
also what are the blitz rules, makes a big difference.
The QB isn't allowed to run, and he's "so-so" scrambling.
Defense can blitz 2 kids, but the qb isn't allowed to cross LOS. Players blitzing have to start 7yds downfield.

I got voluntold into coaching flag football for 11-13 yr olds. I've never coached football of any sort, I'm looking for tips or advice to plays and whatnot.
Games are 6v6. We have a couple very good athletes and a good defense but lack a solid QB. Tips for practice would also be appreciated as well.
If this is the wrong board, let me know.

War isnt glamorous at all.
And what of those who have had skin in the game?
Nobody thinks war is glamorous.
The statement is vets are more supportive "as a whole". Not everyone will have the same mindset but the vast majority of vets I've spoken to and worked with support the strikes.

I'd recommend either Dolly's Stampede or Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show. My kids loved both, but preferred the Pirates show.
Apple Barn Winery is also another potential stop.
We're going June/July when the kids are out of school.

What kind of hobbies are you thinking? How are you going to get electricity to it and are you going to cool it?
My wife does crafts, and she makes shirts for the kids' sport and school events. She also does crocheting and makes gifts for the family for Christmas and whatnot.
I plan to have a small corner learn how to reload my own ammo.
Power is simple, my dad is retired and he was an electrician. I'll work with him to get power to the shed. For cooling, I was juggling the idea of a window unit or I have one of those portable a/c units my wife used in her class when we lived in Colorado.
The intention is to have this little "workshop" for us to use instead of having all that crap in the living spaces in the house.

Again, I'm not the builder. I'd be providing the material and giving the assist. But if the pre-builts you guys are talking about have lasted it would be easier to go that route I think. I was mainly cautious about the quality of those and durability.

First thing is do you have the skills to build it. I built a big shed years ago, but I could not do it now due to my age. I would work up an estimate to compare it to a pre-built one. Factor in your time to build it. Don't forget your roof trusses.
I have a very good friend who is a carpenter and offered me his help if we build it ourselves. The frame and walls would be done in a weekend, according to him. I'd take care of everything interior
12x16 Hobby Shed
Posted by EnragedPlatypus on 2/20/26 at 6:57 am
Has anybody built their own 12x16 hobby shed? Want to put one in the back yard for the wife to do her crafts. Just want something solid that has the room to work comfortably. I'd have a work bench in one corner as well.
Or would it be better to just buy a pre built one? I'm worried about the pre built's ability to withstand weather in SE Louisiana.

Post ACL exercise and weight training
Posted by EnragedPlatypus on 2/11/26 at 2:05 pm
I am getting back into exercise from an ACL replacement in November. I have a decent home gym, but obviously I'm not back to 100% at this time. Has anybody followed the Hard to Kill exercise programs? I want to drop fat while building some lean muscle. My cardio right now is walking, rowing machine, and a bike. My knee isn't ready for jogging yet. I do use a knee brace, so my lower body weight training isn't very heavy.
Any tips or recs? The goal would be to lose a significant amount of fat.....been very stagnant since the injury but getting back into it.

re: Anyone ever had a stolen gun recovered/returned?

Long story short had a handgun stolen from my truck then subsequently recovered by BRSO ~1.5 years ago.
The detective that let me know they had found my gun told me it may be a while before I get it back; after case, appeals, etc. are all closed…
Curious if any of yall had been through this before?
Am I gonna get that gun back or does that detective have a new plinking toy and I should consider replacing it?
Had one stolen out my vehicle in Colorado. Reported it immediately and police recovered it within 15 hours in the middle of being used in a crime. I was expecting years of waiting but I got it back in 11 months. Much quicker than I expected. Was funny when I got it back they had the case number written on the slide and I debated on whether to keep it like that or not. Decided to wipe it clean and use it to this day.

Looks like he's former Army Reserve. I'd guess he's upset he didn't make the cut for SF and is salty about it. But that's just a guess :dunno:
A review of his book essentially says he has no proof - "while Harp can’t prove that members of U.S. Special Forces took advantage of their privileged status to import drugs and build a domestic cartel using the same thuggery employed during a typical day’s work in the endless War on Terror, well, think Occam's Razor"
He's reaching in the hopes of recognition.
re: What’s the most pain you ever felt?

Had to go through a re-alignment of my lower leg called a High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO). They had to open up my tibia by 12mm and slightly correct the twist after an injury.
I was under anesthesia of course, but once I woke up I was in more pain than I've ever been in, before or since.
