This is a little off the wall but I was curious: how many staffs have food at staff meetings?
We meet on Sunday at 5:00 which is, of course, dinner time. Because of that years ago we started bringing food pot luck style and have done so ever since. It doesn't waste any time. We just lead up our plates and roll the video. Does anybody else do something similar?

We watch our game film Friday nights after we play, and meet to Scout Saturday morning. My wife brings in bags of chips and some other stuff (this year frozen TGI Friday's food). Some times the other spouses or family members bring stuff in too. We usually eat on Friday night's food through the day on Saturday. We start around 9:00 AM and are usually done by 2:00 or so.

Was on a staff once that was REALLY into wings. Not that I minded, I gained quite a bit of weight that season . . .

We have a coach who brings in McDonalds egg Mcmuffins every Saturday morning and if we post a shut out the DC brings in donuts for the coaches and kids (donuts Saturday for a donut Friday night). I'll generally buy lunch for the staff on Saturday as well.

I'm trying to drop some weight, so I think I'm gonna have to avoid this thread for the next few days.

On the food topic, been on a staff that eat, a lot....When I started coaching, I wore medium shirts...Now I have moved onto XL's, so my gut is somewhat hidden...

We get McDonald's once a year at the staff meeting if we beat our rival that Friday.

We watch and grade on Saturday and get back together Sunday nights to game plan watch opponents. It's always "steak night" There's 7 of us so we rotate on who supplies, Steaks, Salad, Baked Potatoes.
We live in the PNW so someone is always bringing crab or smoked salmon.

Friday night after home games while film is dubbing, the booster club get pizza, subs, etc.... and the coaches and their families have a little fellowship time until we are ready to go grade the film.
Sunday, we start at 2:00 and around 5:30 after the kids are gone, we take a break and the booster club has worked out a deal with a couple local places to cater: burger, pasta, subs, etc..... last night it was a local TexMex place and we had burritos. Needless to say there was a green fog in conference room the rest of the evening.

Not necessarily FB related, but I made my wife laugh tonight when she and I were watching the "Biggest Loser" - you know the show where they make the big guys (like me) cry and hug on camera - and the male trainer comes out with a tray of 9-12 donuts and asks a family "You guys can eat all these?" I snickered and turned to my wife and said, "Shoot, that's a good start for us!"
