And it's time for us to start up in the morning. I know some are still waiting for the official start of the season, but wanted to say I hope that your season becomes all that you have worked for it to be. I pray that your families stay safe, that your players stay healthy, and the fans rally to your support. May the ball bounce your way, may the refs call it straight, and the wind be at your kicker's back. May your words be an encouragement to those in need, may your actions show your true spirit, and may your wisdom be a mentor to those you influence.
God Bless all my coaching brothers!

coachwoodall The thread title sounds like the title to a great book. Best wishes this season, and thank you for the thoughtful post. DIBS Here's my pitch: "The Lines Are All Painted" is a story of a football coach constantly trying to break through to the next level of achievement. Late one night, he has a conversation with the school groundskeeper that causes him to start thinking about the game in a whole new way. After his awakening, he begins implementing radical changes in not only the program, but his life as well. Soon the program is changed and doing things never before thought possible while his own life takes off as well. His classes math scores are through the roof, his kids are doing great, his wife decided to leave him... @dcohio has never been happier. As the saying goes, "The Lines Are All Painted" and he knows which direction to go... Coming 2016!

School's over, half an hour until it starts. As Bart Scott would say, "Can't wait!"

DC is in Massillon now. They aren't painting any fields there, not with that turfed stadium and indoor facility that rivals what the pros have.

Our first day is today...we start at 4:30 with our fundraiser guy coming to get our kids prepped for fundraiser then off for a 2 hour practice (state mandated). We finish off the night with a meeting with parents and athletes for Code of Conduct. It's a busy day but one of my favorites.

Best of luck to you & everyone else! This is probably my favorite week of the year. School & teaching hasn't started up yet so I'm in football coach mode almost the entire day...helping bring together a group of guys teaching them that doing all the little things right is what leads to success this year on the field, in the classroom & throughout their lives!

We start heat mandated practice this week as well in PA. Pumped up to get started but it pales in comparison to Double sessions that start next week.... feels like kissing you sister! Man..love me some doubles!

Modern lit, unless you count DCohio as a supernatural being, in which case we could appeal to the YA market. Writing those books is about as easy as calling plays in the Double Wing.
