Thats how we play football. I aint ready for that weenie-ball they're trying to feed the kids now. We're one degree of wussification away from Chinese tanks rolling in. Texas & Louisiana & Mississippi & Alabama & FL Panhandle & Alaska are the last points of resistance. |

It's called form tackling, I played 25 years ago and that was taught then, believe it or not. You lead with the face mask because you can frikken see. |

Re: Vaccaro Out 2 Weeks
+1 head up at the point of contact, tackling 101. As another poster said, you will have a short career with the 'reckless abandon' approach.

When you drop your pad level holding your head up put your helmet in line with your pads and you take a thigh to your shoulder. Drop your head and it's out there waiting for a thigh. Tackling 101. |
