6'1" at 12?

Not sure why I need to post this, but I coach a youth football team have a kid who is a legit 5'11" 205 pounds and he's only 10! Oh, and he's not the biggest kid in the league.

We can do that.
Grandfather did carvings, wood/soapstone, his tools would shave hair. Didn't understand the stropping on curved leather strips, at the time. Valuable skill I never learned (12 when he died). Good times never the less.

You should see my nephew. He is the picture of a cornbread fed country boy. At 14 he was almost 6' but was a solid 220. Now he's 16, 6 foot something and about 250.

The is so big he got a job hauling appliances. If you have ever moved a side by side or washer you know that isn't chump work.

Sounds like my nephew. he is 13 adn 6ft and roughly 200-210 and solid.

His dad is 6'3 and about 300. he used to be build like a tank but taking a office job turned that stomach to a "keg" LOL

I'm 48 with an 11 year old and an 8 year old. It freaks me out seeing people I went to high school with, talking about their grandchildren, who are older than my kids!

My dad probably has all of you old fucks beat : 76, retired at 40 to south Florida, jogs about 30 miles a week and can still bench press 300 lbs., no lie. He lives by himself and drives a 350z, a 1982 Corvette, and a 1929 Model A Ford. Always shagging a different broad. When I grow up I'm gonna be just like my daddy! :)


Peace

Hmmm... Very tall parents? Or maybe they should get the kid investigated.

How did you know you were officially old?

A few years ago I was talking to a young lady in a bar. I wasn't hitting on her, just maybe flirting a little, and she said "You're old enough to be my father." I knew her age, added it up and thought "Yeah, if I'd knocked up your mom when I was 14."

But it's a number of years later and if do the math now, then yes, I could easily be the father of most of the people I drink with in this college town. That's when I knew I was old.

All you young whippersnappers get the hell out of here!


I'm 35. Is that old? Maybe its because lil rudeguy is almost 17, but I feel older and older every day. Kids annoy the piss out of me, there is no good music now, tv is shit and I don't want to have to deal with shit I don't have to.

Anyone old and proud? How did you know you were officially old?



YOU KID! GET OUT OF HERE! I TOLD YOU TO GET OFF MY LAWN!!!!

You aren't old, you are just mad.
