End of year highlights....(proud pappa version)

[Inspecta]

Well as many of you know I coached my two boys in football this year. They both played in the Tiny Mite division of pop warner which is 5,6 and 7 year olds. Well they finished their season last weekend and I've been working feverishly ever since to complete their highlight reel. I have all but one game done, and wanted to share with you one of the games I finished and uploaded to youtube. It's the Bengals vs. the Cowboys. My boys are the two defensive ends 16 and 72 (Christian picked 16 for Cribbs and Nick wanted 73 for Joe Thomas, but they only had 72.

This is my first experience with video and music editing. I've done some picture slideshows but that's about it. Any feedback is appreciated.

Nice job man! Can't wait until my kid gets to be that age. Glad you had fun with it.

Dude this is the best age ever. I have a ball with my boys no matter what we're doing. And kids really do say the darndest things.

The other night at the dinner table we're all sitting there eating and as if my wife and I aren't even in the room Nick turns to his brother and says

"Christian, did you know that Justin Bieber sucks balls?"

First off I had to stifle laughter and then remain stern and tell him why that language is unacceptable.

Ahh the joys of parenthood.

Anyway, I'll be uploading the other games today. If anybody has video editing experience and has any tips pointers for me that would be great...

Awesome brother. The way football should be played. No passing, and just feed #42 and #5. How cool is that. That little #42 has some balance and power to go with his speed.

Absolutely! #42 (Zeke) is a goddamn animal on the football field. I know you might think I'm exagerating but if that kid stays on the straight and narrow and commits to the game, he'll be playing on Sundays one day. Not a doubt in my mind. Wait to see this kid block.

#5 is Shaq, and I gave him the nickname Secretariat cause whenever the boys would run their lap, on the back end of the field he would just pull away from the crowd and he wasn't even running hard. His one major flaw in his game is that he doesn't like contact, and sometimes doesn't run as hard as he could cause he wants to minimize his impact with the safeties


They played the 9ers twice this year, and for the first game I made two versions of the game. I'm gonna upload both and would like to get opinions on which one you think is better.

Good job with the kids and with the editing.
