Is the one on the right Jack's son (as in Jack of Jack in the Box fame)? Huge head or small body. :shock:

The one on the right is my son! but for his age it is a huge head. He wears a size 7 ball cap at the age of 9. He is also a much more consistent shotgun snapper than Andre Gurrode. He is about 4'10" and 115. Hoping to get another 16 inches out of him.

The one on the left plays the QB like role in our single wing attack. He is a good runner that is still really skinny. A few of the HS officials that do our games claim that #1 is going to play in college. He will make a really good receiver some day.

First off, love the red helmet Rayburn posted. Absolute greatness.

Second, sad to see that BrianTin kid's peewee team has the helmet that more of us like than the current blue one's we are sporting now.

Sorry about that. :oops: Nothing personal, but in that picture, the helmet just looks huge compared to the kids body. I was wondering about the ages of those kids. Your son has very muscular looking calves, so it was hard to determine the age/size of the kids. Nice helmets BTW.

No worries. I agree the boy has a huge head. Hope he grows into it. These boys are 9/10 years old. My son is the 2nd biggest kid on the team from a weight perspective but he is the tallest on the team. Also, the tallest kid in his class at school as well. The boy next to him is probably the 2nd tallest kid.

I've heard from a few people that we are scrapping the royal blue and staying with navy because President Turner never signed the approval for switching the colours and now adidas is having a field day trying to change everything...any confirmations on this?

Didn't approve going to the lighter blue, or didn't approve going back to the navy blue?

I might be the only one, but I like the lighter blue. He needs to pull his head out.

Obviously, you haven't seen our soccer uniforms. Very Grapevine HS/J.J. Pearce-looking.

Adidas has several teams with blue jersey's: Kansas, ND, Nevada, UCLA. I think we can work something out.

We can't have that! Otherwise, we'd look very highschool, like how UT copied W.T. White.
