Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Jackcrevol]

Believe the plan is for Cavan to finish school while playing for hometown Philadelphia squad and at 18 plays for Manchester.

Wow, that's a big deal. good on him, must be super mature. i just think what a kid find important at 14 changes minute by minute.

good luck to him

Muskey?

Different fish from the same family. Muskie can be bigger. I caught a Pike that was almost 3 feet long and was getting my son to take a picture when my buddy caught one that was 4 feet long. I just threw mine back.
I caught this fish about 4 feet off the bank. It almost pulled me in as I wasn’t expecting to get a strike that close to shore. Then I realized that the bank was basically a shear drop off. We were in Canada on a Boy Scout canoeing trek. Greatest week ever with my son and friends.

Used to go up to Red Lake, Ontario and fish Lake Odin where we stayed in the only cabin for miles. Walleye and pike galore. Great fishing and even better eating.

Gary's personality reminds of the Butch/Dooley/Bob Griese 'tude.

So you're insinuating that since no more Gary Danielson, that means no complaining when Fowler and Herbstreit are calling the game?

whoa whoa let's not go overboard here

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Thats ridiculous. Granted its a fine line. Ya dont want him to miss out. But 14 is young. No way i'm letting my 14 yo play professional sports, not even for $1B.

Id even let em play at 17, pref 18. if his grades are good. That's just too early.

Musky can be substantially larger. Watched a documentary once.

Northern Pike & Musky sizes grew further away from lower 48, that fisherman went. Couldve been TV magic.

Edit: Debunked. IGFA Member Services

All tackle WR is near 68lb.

WR on 20Lb Tippet, 17Lbs. James River, VA

Anyway, WR Pike is nearly 30 lbs less.

A fish that long and large needs to be handled carefully, with a special cradle net.

Ive know guys that have fished these rivers their entire lives and never caught one. (Me)

Another good challenge, #10 at Inn of the Mountain Gods, 297 yd. par 4 from the white tees. Both the tee shot and approach shot require a carry over water. The first time I played the hole, I hit my tee shot too far and ended up in the 2nd water hazard.

Wow!

14 year old Cavan Sullivan sign a MLS soccer contract.

Coaches state Cavan is a "Generation Talent"

Largest homegrown contract in MLS history. Also will join Manchester City when he turns 18. Unless he had issues getting a student visa he should have just skipped MLS and joined Manchester City’s academy now, imo. Playing against grown professionals as a 14 or 15 year old can either be great for your development, or terrible. Safer option, but just as effective, would have been to play against the top players in England and training in their academy. If he’s good enough then Europe is his future anyways. Get a start on it early.

I'd have to empty my balls for that hole...ummm, wait...

 

[drvenner]

Hey @peaygolf . Do you take extra socks with you when you go to play golf? You know, in case you get a hole in one.

 

[TheRain]

Good point.
