2 losses in a row for DK and the Vikings. Hopefully the coach doesn't do what he normally does and practices the boys for 5 hours trying to fix things.

Don't hold ya breath.

I guess trying to win is overrated and burdensome for today's youth and parent buddies.

DK played for Delmar Wiles, whose practices were legendary. Players today don't know hard.

Doesn't matter how Bad A practices were. if you can't get everything done within 2.5 hours you are just beating a dead horse. You've lost the kids at that point

Agreed

Back in the day all practices were full contact .....

Not really. I played in the first part of the 70's. We would do a lot of drills with blocking dummies on Monday and Tuesday and some live tackling drills. Wednesday was full speed scrimmaging. Thursday was walk through stuff, for Friday's game. But each day there was lots and lots of running, both laps and sprints. Also, "bull in the ring" was still used in practice when I played, I think that has pretty much been banned now (a good thing).
