Re: Skins go bowling

Not be a negative nancy but is this really a good use of time? I realize they are trying to build team spirt/work but they don't work in an office enviroment, they literally already play on a team.

I don't whatever have a good time. Probably doesn't matter either way.

I think stuff like that is invaluable.

Missing 1 day of OTA's is not going to kill them.

I could not disagree with you more. If you read the full post, they had to draft members of the coaching staff and opposite side. It is also an icebreaker kinda deal(even though they know each other).

I wouldn't mind more of this kinda stuff to tell you the truth.

I think it can be very important. Yes, they play a team sport, but that does not by itself make a "team". Team spirit or esprit de corps can play a huge factor in a team's success, so if this helps, great!

I have never corrected spelling or grammar before...I don't think. Something about reading that word without an s on it was driving me crazy. Didn't mean to nit pick.

was it voluntary? if selected could they sit out, or workout on a different lane? were the any lane violations resulting in fines or suspensions? i read JZ was telling the QBs which pin they had to hit right before they released it. and D. Hall kept running up and catching the balls before they hit the pins!

Re: Skins go bowling

I spent an entire high school offseason with my team going around to churches, playgrounds, and apartment complexes uncovering and setting up public swimming pools. Some of those hard covers can get heavy. We developed a better sense of team work, and had (believe it or not) lots of fun. Anyways, team unity is key and I think this bowling trip was a nice way to not only relax, but develop a family fun-like atmosphere with your bros. Work hard, play hard.
