Well, after a short but enjoyable break from a wonderful Flag football season, NFL Flag is about to start today with my teams first practice. When I was deciding what team to pick for this season, I had to take into consideration that some teams would be accounted for and that some teams would be more popular than others. Also, I was thinking that it would be great if my sons could have new jerseys for their collection.
My boys saw the Eagles play the Giants last season in what turned out to be a really exciting game so it was a no-brainer. Let's be the Eagles. I mean, they were labeled "the dream team" at the beginning of the season right?! So, tonight I get to pass out jerseys and reconnect with some of my players from our regular season. We have 2 new players that have never played football and I am excited to see what they can do.
The other great thing is that we finally have some football weather. It's cold outside which means that it will be great out on the field! I am looking forward to getting out there and rocking and rolling with these kids. I will have several returning starters back with me and they will continue to be with me for the regular flag football season for the last season of my oldest son's flag career before he and several of his friends make the jump to tackle. I am really excited about that!
So, once again, I get to wear my coaches hat. I get to strap on my whistle and grab the playbook out! It's gonna be a great, quick, short season. 8 games in 6 weeks. Lots of passing and oh yeah, some trick plays. *(I love NFL FLAG)
Oh, yeah... I'm ready for some football!!!
