Learning the Game

At one time or another we all started as rookies, we looked at a game and thought "that looks stupid" or "what are they playing at?". For everyone who doesn't have the benefit of years of watching the game, or participating, I thought I would put together a list of lessons on the game. Starting at the most basic level, and hopefully continuing into advanced tactical lessons, this is gridiron for the uninitiated.

** Each Title will become a clickable link as each lesson becomes available **
