I just got home from my 12 year olds baseball league championship game.

My boy threw 5 innings giving up zero earned runs in a 9-2 win. He also scored 3 of the 9 runs.

After they got their first place trophies the league commissioner said they had one more trophy to give.

My son was named league MVP and given a huge trophy for it.

Since Goff is gone now, he should be safe to sign with Alabama.

Thanks. He wants to play football but we've kept him out of it until next fall due to the propensity of kids to develop bad habits at an early age in the sport.

He's rip roaring ready to go.

He's 5'5" and 120 pounds.

Going on 37 years waiting to get those last couple inches.

I topped out at 5'11".

My wife's family is tall though. She is 5'8" and her sister is 6'1".

Our nephew is 15 and already 6'4".

I was maybe 5' 10" and 145 when I graduated high school. It sucked

Sounds like your son will be well over 6'. You're gonna have to use your old man strength on him randomly to keep him in line

Well thankfully I inherited my dad's side of the family's strength.

I'm 5'11 180 and I max out on the bench at 340 pounds.

I can't squat for shite though because I've had a torn ACL for 16 years. My body is proportioned right though.

I haven't maxed out in years. I'm 225 and I work out with 225. I hate squats, I don't mind leg presses, but I hate squats.

I typically rep out around 275 or 280.

I can leg press, but not squat.

I'm afraid if I tried to my knee would end up looking like this:

Keith Niebuhr just CB'd Jalyn Armour-Davis to Alabama.

That foggy pick lasted less than an hour.

Those frickers take those picks so serious, that they have to change. Basically, they just pander to their fan base as long as possible, then when someone actually has info, they change their picks.

No shite, if I ever had an injury as bad as that, I'd never exercise or do anything physical again. I wouldn't ever risk it
