I was just wondering if any current or former players posted on here, and would they be willing to say who they were? just an off season topic out of curiosity.
Watch it, sucka! I ain't that old! :eek2:Yes Crimsonjag is actually Kenny Stabler
Both and some parents too. A lot of current players just read.Bayou,
Is that yes to former or current?

Howdy neighbor. I've lived in five points for 20 yrs and watched my grandchildren play at those places.Yes. I played at Chapman Jr. High, Philpot Park, Oak Park as well as many a backyard. I also played in a few Turkey Bowls:BigA:

Similar deal here. At age 12, I was as tough to tackle as Wilbur Jackson and could hit & tackle like John Croyle & Robin Parkhouse. (the 3 younger kids next door could attest to these facts...)By the time I was 10 years old I was already a three time all-american at Bama. Sadly, my career was cut short by what turned out to be a startling lack of ability.
A cautionary, yet important personal history. I know it had to be difficult, but thanks for sharing.Similar deal here. At age 12, I was as tough to tackle as Wilbur Jackson and could hit & tackle like John Croyle & Robin Parkhouse. (the 3 younger kids next door could attest to these facts...)
Regrettably, though, I fairly well stopped growing around that same time. And I was short then. I combined small stature with a blazing lack of speed to transform my athletic career *coughs* *clears throat* into the stunning success I've seen. ("seen" is to be taken very literally; student section, season tix, away games, bowl games, all seen from the stands or on TV...and btw, the 3 younger kids next door all became large, muscular Marine pilots--fortunately, I had the good sense to cease playing football with them once they began approaching me in size...)
