  • Wow, 13 years you held on to that dream, you're a good dad. My dad knew from the minute he saw my red hair that I wasn't going to win the Heisman like he had previously hoped.

  • I knew from the moment my son was born he had what it takes to work in the video dept. He's lived up to my lofty expectations so far, so I don't know what to tell you...sucks for you.

  • Lol I said same thing little over nine years ago. Thought I was on to something. Doc says he on pace to be 6'3 He played qb this past year for his 8u team and has a very good arm, pretty good feet and speed and great hands. He also plays baseball and basketball. Kid has fell in love with basketball. He let me know this week he wasn't playing football this year. Lol. Baseball and basketball only.
    On the bright side he said he may pick football back up again in Jr. High.

  • Well I think I may have the next All-American OT. 13yrs old 5'10" 200. Great feet. Needs to work on strength and upper body.

  • I have 2 sons, 8 and 5, and both good little athletes. Unfortunately I don't use the term "little" because of their age, but because they're both small for their age. Anyway, since their future stardom in a Tide uniform (and more importantly, my happiness because of my vicarious living through them) is the single most important thing in my, I mean their, life, their "play time" is hanging upside down to stretch them out. That works, right?

    If I have to put (g), then I feel sorry for you, but (vbg)

    I don't know if hanging them updside down will make them grow, but it might make them confess all their crimes! (vbg).

  • Look to the left in my sig photo and that is the future, well was the future Bama QB until he broke my heart and has decided to give up football for now. Think I should just make him play? I mean he is just nine I can force him right? Look at the pocket presence. Geesh what is the kid thinking? Thats it I think he's got to play. Now what to do with Momma? She's not seeing the fututre like me. She says if he doesnt want to play he doesnt have to. Of course she doesnt have the eye to see his potential like I do. Should I just sign him up and go with the old better to ask for forgiveness than permission route? Divorce isnt that bad is it?

    Chicago, I have heard the hanging upside down does work. For my boy I am thinking about the new surgery they are doing that can make you taller. I need to research it better though cause I am afraid it may hurt his speed and agility. Mine is on pace to be good size but not Peyton Manning tall. Proibably gonna need 2 or 3 inches to get there. Hope that helps ya. May wanna look at the surgery option.

    I've looked into the spinal surgery, but it will only add a couple inches and it's more for vanity than for athletic purposes. It would most certainly affect their speed, and I don't want to do that. Instead I've started the blood spinning and plasma platelet treatments for them.

    All I'm saying is that Marv Marinovich was a forward thinker, he just didn't have the technology that we do!

  • My 14 year old is athletic and a dedicated Tider; he would run through a brick wall for CNS. Unfortunately, he'll probably top out at 5'7", 135#. I'm thinking soccer may be his game because we've tried baseball, and that isn't it (good glove, no bat). Worst case scenario, which really isn't all that bad: He'll follow the family tradition and do his part at a rabid Bammer at every game,

  • my some will be 1 on the 27th of this month.

    right now, he's looking and acting more like a linebacker (destroying everything) and he's eating his way to a dt.

    i don't care if he plays football or soccer or basketball or even sports, he could do band or be a car guy, just as long as he does something besides sit around (and obviously drugs, etc.) and is happy doing it.

    May have to look into the spinning and plasma. Just imagine how good Todd marinivich would have been had his dad had the advantages we have. Todd probably wouldn't be a stoner now if his dad would have been a little tougher on him.

  • My little nephew (3 years old) told my brother at the SEC tourney this year that he wanted to play basketball. My brother asked him if he wanted to play football, my nephew said yes. Then my brother asked if he wanted to play baseball. Once again, he answered in the affirmative. When my brother asked him about soccer (which his wife played) he said "No, soccer is for girls" I couldn't be a more proud uncle!

    That right there is great stuff! +1 sir! I have a nine year old and he is far more interested in guns, knives, hunting. I feel much the same as previously mentioned by other Dads. Work hard, be happy, wait as long as possible to get married... don't go Collumbine(sp.) on me. I'll be OK with it.

  • Mine is 6' 4" and weighs 190, great arm & tough as nails also played LB & DE & graduates this year. Decided he loves wrestling more than football & is going to NAU on academics. I'm totaly devastated & since his sister is not very athletic, I told wife it was time to start over, & see if we can get it right this time. :-)
