[quote]Watching the A day game to find signs of improvement from Milroe. He looks like the same guy to me.

[quote]we just need someone like Coker who can consistently move the chains and be average at throwing the ball[/quote]

Ty had a 5 yard overthrow on a short to intermediate pass over the middle at A Day. Milroe had a 10 yard comeback that hit the receiver in the chest and was dropped. Seems like short to intermediate, righ...

[quote]Easy way to not have Daddy Ball issues is simply to not coach your kid. I’d recommend that. I had times when I’d be coaching in the same league my sons played in but I wouldn’t be coaching them. They’d be on other teams.
