well, my ds has been in try-outs allweek for high school football.there are other kids who are older,bigger and into their second year,,so OF COURSE thay will be first string--WELL NOW he wants to QUIT!! ARRRGH--after all i went thru for him to try-out.All the kids "make the team" but not all PLAY. And he will have practice 5 nites a week for 3 hours.I told hom " No way are you quitting yet".He needs to bite the bullet on this one for awhile..what sucks is he is tall but thin--has more of a basketball body..but time will tell. AND tonite I have to go to his other PAID league and tell him hes quitting..which i dont mind cuz the coaches are TERRIBLE on his new team and one coach brings in 5 black kids from the projects so they can play and pays NO attention to the kids who have been in this league for YEARS!!!So..The first game is this saturday..they wont have him, but i am relieved because they are playng a really big tuff team and risk of injury is high. Better safe than sorry.. So i guess I paid $180.00 for a jersey he will never use basicallY!!!--sorry,just venting...mel

I know..but I am glad he is going to stick out the High school team now--the "paid" one had terrible coaches--thus risk of injury multiplies.He will stick out the high school team..mel
