They couldn't find any music to play without swearing?

nice having 12-13 years olds listening to "bitches and ho's" and smokin weed. You would think whoever put that together would have put a better soundtrack together. Embarrassing.

Um, for 8 he looks GREAT, for 12/13, he looks.....ok. At 12 yrs old in pee wee, he is at the oldest age allowed for that weight group, 12/13 yrs olds usually play in Jr Midget and Midgets, both classes are above him in weight and are much more competative due to older, more developed kids. Obviously he's a real small 12 year old that is playing with 9-12 yr old kids.

Well too bad I didnt read all the comments.
On the other hand, he does live in Los Alamitos. Maybe Floyd has already been in contact with him.

dcohio - are you serious? whoa. That makes it okay?
I'm not going to get into an arguement. My opinion is that it isn't okay for that age to be hearing that stuff. Just my opinion....maybe not yours and others.

dcohio- You gotta be kidding me...I would hope the parents are listening to the radio edit versions of those songs with the kids (not the club/street version)...then again whoever put this together didn't care enough to censor it for general consumption...

No offense but he looks like an older ( 13 probably ) lighter Pop Warner player playing against younger players. Having had sone go through the PW/HS/College progression, I've see a ton of these type of guys never be heard of in high school when everyone is their same age. For his sake I hope he keeps growing and that he isnt a mature 13 year old.

Brophy: Chris Austin is one hell of a football coach, and too modest by half.

8 Year olds dont kick that far or throw that far, despite the exaggerations of overzealous parents LOL. Not sure why anyone would kick deep to him, great body control.

I am still floored by the music in the highlight video..... I mean, having a highlight video for a youth player is bad enough w/o that kind of music.

That 8 year old probably made the highlight video... as technically advanced as our kids are...
First the 8 year old runs circles around 13 year olds in youth football... and then he goes home and makes a video of his highlights for youtube...
Got to like that moxy!

All I know is... If I had an 8 year old on my team... with those type of moves... that listened to hardcore rap music... but still gave the referee the ball without doing a funky dance... I'd have to shake his coaches hand... and ask... why doesn't he do a funky dance?

yes saint, that is the very first thing I noticed when I was watching their offense. I am surprised that more of us darksiders havent mentioned it.

I was not going to watch this because I thought, "O great, some crazy parent again". But I have to admit, minus the "I make it rain on them ho's" it was pretty fun to watch.
All the while I was thinking, "I wonder what coach Callende is thinking about this?"

Anybody notice the two very nice blocks (and three very nice blocks-in-the-back) on his kick returns?

im not sure how old he is, but hes clearly very athletic. he runs hard and has tremendous body control, which is something that really cant be taught..... you either can or cant. also, i dont know about the age group of the kids playing, buit he was smaller than alot of the other players. against the green/yellow team the entire defense was considerably bigger than he was. now size and age dont always equate, but its not like he was an oversized player against smaller , younger boys. whatever the case may be, i wish the boy luck in future athletics and its almost a shame that his endeavors have been posted on the internet to be broken down and second-guessed. hes still a little boy and by putting that video up i think you expose him to alot of unnecessary publicity. let the kids play and have fun and not worry about beingf on youtube. on a side note, the background music could have been in better taste. and dont give me the "generational" thing as an excuse. i work in the ghetto and it wouldnt be accepted to use that vocabulary with young kids involved.

Kids can't just be kids anymore. IMO, it was a lot better when our parents just turned us out, told us to have fun, and we played football (or wiffle ball, or Army, or whatever) until it was time to work or eat.
