Things Are Moving Right Along
The word I hear from Leman Saunders about the Six-Man State Championship Game Film Project is encouraging. He, with the help of many of you out there, has made much progress in finding footage of Six-Man Championships dating back to 1972. That is the year O'Brine won the first ever Six-Man State Championship. He also states he is finding film of Regional Championships prior to 1972. Amazing! When completed, the film project will be house at McMurry University in Abilene.
Spring has sprung and the weather is warming up. Something else beginning to heat up is 6 0n 6. Tournaments are being held in May and June in several towns and will culminate with the 6 on 6 Championships held here in Abilene in mid June.
As is usual with this time of the year, coaches are beginning to move from one school to another. Stay tuned for those changes.

Leman Saunders
That may not be a household name to you but if you care about Six-Man football it is a name you should know. I invite you to learn more about this fine gentleman by reading his blog at www.lonestarfootball.net.
Leman is working on two projects that are very important to the game of Six-Man. One has to do with game film and the other has to do with History itself. Amazing stuff. Check it out.

State Championship Video
Do you have video of any Six-Man State Championship games? I have been made aware of a gentleman that heads a project of collecting ALL State Championship games. Sounds like a great project. Please contact me if you have any of these games on video.

New Year
January 17th
Good morning. I have my eyes glued to the television this day. Pretty incredible. I am watching the Obama Express as it makes its way to Washington D.C. and I saw for the first time this morning a video clip of the actual landing of the Miracle on the Hudson. Technology is a wonderful thing!
Finally, the Six-man All State teams have been released and there are some who didn't make it that thought they should have. That happens every year.
Plans are in place for another great 6 on 6 season. It appears at this time there will be a Finals in Abilene in mid June. The site of the games most likely will be at the Lee Complex because of construction on some of the fields at Abilene Christian University.
Stay tuend for additional details.
My email is txsixii@yahoo.com and donhardin1@gmail.com. Let me hear from you.

Thought Provoking
Over at sixmanfootball.com, there is a thread asking you to name your Top Five Six-Man games of 2008. That is a difficult thing to do at least for me. I listed six games. Visit the site and respond with your Top Five games.

It is what it is
Six-man football is a wonderful sport. It is an extremely wide open game. If you are reading this you are probably already a fan of the game.
If you are not a fan of Six-man, you probably don't understand that the six-man community is a huge family. That's right, a family and yes alot like mine and yours. We have our spats and disagreements from time to time but in the end we are still family.
Fans know these sites, Non fans or newbies might not so I list them from time to time and I highly encourage you to visit them. They are:
