Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. Practice makes perfect.....post on....

No OT left him open.

The LB sits and counts to 3, and the DLmen block to the left and right opening the Center-Guard hole, and the LB runs in Untouched, usually a DLineman will drop off into short zone coverage.

The Back up center was in the game, because the starter tweaked a knee in practice.
