How much football experience do you have?

[Longsufferingvol]

I was in the band and performed at games.

 

[Jeepkuntry]

Played through my freshmen year of high school. Was more into getting high and drinking before/at/after games. Might as well say every day of the week.

 

[The_Big_Orange]

I coach youth soccer. Took a 3-7 team to 8-1-1 and this year we’re 5-0 so far.

Boom!

 

[JohnD13]

[VFLCodyGBO]

Bringing this back from the dead, I read back through the responses and thought some other folks might want to see this poll.

[901 Orange]

But now I am UT's Armchair Quarterback, and have been for about 30 years. The good thing about being an Armchair Quarterback is that your eligibility never runs out!

I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

 

[1NCvolunteer]

Many many years of football experience. I’m a motivational speaker now, I live in a van down by the river.

 

[MikeVol44]

Could throw a nerf football 120 yards.

into the wind.....left handed.....and blind-folded?????

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

That means u run slow

You ain't wrong. My HS coach described me as follows "I had the size of a WR, dependable hands like a TE, and the speed of an offensive lineman"

 

[MadWorld]

into the wind.....left handed.....and blind-folded?????

No, but through a tire swing. Deadly accurate with the old nerf.

 

[LargeOrange1]

I was the OC for neighborhood team growing up.....I had the stick to draw up the plays in the dirt!

 

[bobby0404]

I played 11 total years, 4 in high school, 4 in collage and 3 in the service for the air force. My service ball was played on a team in Germany.

 

[Orange931]

I was always a baseball player. Played it for 8 years, but have always loved football.

 

[Smokeyone]

I was a state department kid and used sports to fit in. Played in Asian friendship leagues for tee ball, soccer, rugby, cricket, basketball, before moving to the states. I played baseball and football in highschool (Ray Guy and Chris Mohr worked with me on punting and place kicking/Thomson High) and bowled and fenced in college. Had to give up sports do to knees, arthritis, gout.

 

[Volgrad98]

I played football from pee-wee to highschool. A few years back, I traveled back home to find the fields where I played pee wee were replaced by apts. It kind of made my allergies act up.

 

[RockyTop140]

Same here, played baseball through high school. I love playing baseball, but watching football is just much better than watching baseball

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Played basketball for the most part and baseball from 10 years old to 15. Never played organized football.

Just curious about the makeup of VN in terms of actual on field experience. Please pick only the highest level of play you have achieved.

I played Tecmo Bowl. You didn't put that on the list. WTF
