  1. This was honestly me in 6th grade. I wasn’t as bulky as he is but I was easily 12-18 inches taller than my teammates and the other kids we played against. Although I wasn’t as bulky as him.. I was unfortunately still too heavy to be allowed to carry the ball.. so.. I was relegated to being a defensive end/tight end. Even though I was a β€œtight end”.. I had to be a purely blocking tight end. I still had a lot of fun though and averaged 15-20 tackles a game and 3-5 sacks and half or more of my tackles were for losses. When we forced a punt (which was damn near every possession.. I think we gave up maybe 4-5 touchdowns throughout the entire year.. if that), I was our edge gunner and despite my size, I could always beat whoever was unlucky enough to have to try and block me.. I would blow past them before they even got their hands up and gun straight for the punter.. and I would either get to him so quickly, he either just balled up to protect the ball and brace for the hit.. or he’d get so spooked at the prospect of getting blown up and end up missing the snap completely or fumble it somehow. Out of 10-12 punts a game or so.. they might have been lucky to get off 1-2 of them. Our return guy was really good too but honestly, I was far more responsible for putting us in great field position than he was lol. We’d go from having the ball on our own side of the field potentially.. to having the ball in their red zone. We almost always had a super short field because of me effing with their punts lol.

  2. OK, I feel like this is a real thing because there is a fifth grader and she’s my friend too. She’s like almost for right now she’s likep5’4 and I’m scared for sixth grade. I feel like she’s gonna be a giant.
