  • OT: 7'4" Middle School Football Player
Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Read this article and watch the video. This is an amazing story about a 14-year-old who has a freakish growth problem and is now 7'4". He has serious health problems and may not live that much longer, but he is getting to play his favorite sport and loving it. Great story here.

Glad he's enjoying something that all teenagers should experience, but considering his physical problems that seems pretty dangerous.

I would guess that the other team knows about him and they dont tackle him like they would every other player. Plus i dont think he plays very much.

Its a great story, and sad at the same time.
