Coach Shawn

My thought is that I would rather add the weight myself. Adding the weight at the factory would likely limit my ability to customize the weight.

I usually find old football trophies at thrift stores. I then remove the engraved plate. I then buy custom engraved plates from online trophy shops. This is a pic of the Trophy the coach gets for winning the Treasure Bowl.

Great work on this study! I love it.

This occurred during the recent Treasure Bowl. the Broncos were passing from the shotgun. The QB was on a felt pad intended to keep him stationary. The Warhawks looper zips in for a sure sack but no! The QB has scooted back just enough to avoid the sack. he then completed a pass for a 10 yard gain! IMG_2472.MOV

I agree this is an outstanding game report. Congratulations on what sounds like a great season and an epic championship game.

In my solitaire league the home team automatically wins the coin toss to start the game and thus they gain the usual choices. I toyed with many of the ideas you listed but decided to just go with auto winning the coin toss. some ideas not on your list: •home team gets an extra pivot. •home team gets extra timeouts.

This sounds like a good setup. Since you have been using it for a while you have likely got it fine tuned pretty well. If you are willing perhaps you could post your dice charts here.

Yes, that was the time period in which I bought several division boxes.

I set up the offense prior to determining the exact play. I do have an idea of what type play it will likely be based on the down and distance, such as 3rd and 7 is s pass situation so odds favor a pass play. Thus I set up the offense that anticipates that type play but has run options also. I then set up my defense based on the offensive setup. next I roll dice to determine the exact play the offense will run. the offense can pivot two figures. The defense does not get to make adjustments. then I run the play. Timeouts can be used by the offense to: • reroll the play dice. The offense is then stuck with the new play. • shift runs to the opposite side but keeping the corresponding target hole, ie between the RG and RT becomes a run between the LG and LT.

Broncos go for an Onsides kick. They roll a white stick which gives them the best (shortest) kick. IMG_2382.MOV But the Warhawks Larry Fitzgerald wins the race and snags the kick. the Warhawks then manage to run out the clock and win the Championship 20 to 14.

But the Broncos comeback again. IMG_2377.MOV IMG_2379.MOV But it is 4th Quarter: Warhawks still lead 20 to 14.

the Warhawks looper fights through the RBs block and sacks the QB! FullSizeRender.mov

The Warhawks come back with a blue stick (with pressure) bomb for a TD. IMG_2348.MOV IMG_2350.MOV

The Broncos get on the board with this great run! IMG_2338.MOV

Here is the Warhawks first TD! IMG_2285.MOV

IMG_2329.MOV Here Doug Flutie runs for the Warhawks second TD!

The broncos missed a FG on their first drive. My Warhawks started with this good run by Lou Partlow on 1st down. IMG_2262.MOV The Broncos Defense stiffened and I punted. I then got the first turnover by interception. IMG_2275.MOV IMG_2276.MOV

Normally This would be a head to head game but Coach Blaine is both working full time and attending college so he graciously offered to have me play the game solitaire so we could get the season wrapped up.

The field is a Tudor Ultimate field. I use the plugin to power the two motors (it comes with only one). My teams are tweaked and weighted to 4 oz.

Yes, that was a great video. Three 100 yd returns in one game is quite a feat. I’ll have to check my records to see if that has ever happened in my league.

Thanks I will check out that site. It looks like it will definitely help.

The hardest thing, for me anyway, is identifying appropriate skin tones for my historical teams. I usually check online for team pictures. And then go to looking up individual players names to try to find pics showing the skintone. Unfortunately pics ate harder to come by than you would think. is there a site or method you use?

Yes that id a beautiful board, congratulations.
