Electric Football/Buzzball in Our Public Schools in NJ

[GrandMasterKC]

I would first like to thank all of the electric football Coaches out there that helped make our program a success. Coach Ed, my friend and mentor, Coach Raiderman for the weekly agendas and invite into the NHFL, Coach Joe "the Coach of the year hands down", Coach Jack of "Buzzball Central", The National One and the Philly Crew, Coach Norbert, Coach Jim.Davis, my great friend and the master of the "looper neautralizer 101 theory" Coach K-Lo, Coach Geno, Coach Bill, the Kansas Crew, Coach stacey, Coach George Diamond, and every Coach that has thought of us, sent teams and or just shared your wisdom with me for I always passed it down to the jr coaches.
I thank you.

NJ is in fiscal crisis and as a result my position as Family Liaison has been cut for 07-08. I am very optomistic about the future and I really want the EF buzz to stay alive in the public schools in New Brunswick, no matter where I end up. Watching these studenst develop coaching skills each week brought a great joy to my heart and I am sure other Coaches as well that supported our dream.

We made history......

June 1st, 2007 we will have our 2nd Buzzball/Martial Arts Banquet. If any Coaches would like to send any Buzzball related items as gifts for my students that will be greatly appreciated. I have attempted to get most of them boards, but I am only one Coach of many. Many great Coaches have sent teams, basses and the boys have loved them. Many original jr coaches have moved on to the middle school or transfered out. I hope to send each child away with 2 teams and possibly a board, so that they can continue to compete with eachother throughout the summer, and hopefuly their life time. "Keeps them off the streets"I have sprung for a few Football trophies and the deal is that I am planning 2 banquets in 1. It worked last year.

If you can not or do not wish to send anything please simply call as a well wisher during the banquet which starts at 6:00PM and ends at 8:30PM June 1, 2007, we will have dinner and a karate demonstration as well as an awards ceremony. If you are in the NJ area and wish to stop by please do. The address is

National and being National is a busy job.... Did you forget you called me early during the the week and let me know about the affaire that was cool. Ed called but we had not started and I lost the call on the 2nd try. We are in my office 12:20-1 daily, if you get a minute give thema call they know you from our talks, 2 minutes will really enable them to know of the life as The "National One". Couldnt get down sat but I still held on to some WT for you.

Thanks for the tthought.

Karim,

I'm sorry to hear about this news. I am just reading it now as well. I don't know how I missed it but I did have a busy month of May. That is a GREAT group of kids and they will never forget you. What you did (do) for them is awesome. I'm glad I was able to get there one time to witness it. Take care bud and good luck finding your new adventure. Losing a job is tough but I know each time I lost mine there was always something better. Keep us posted.

Coach RM,
I must state you are one of the founding Fathers of the return to EFL drive in NB, NJ. I thank you my Brother. I thank God(see I said it in the school(LOL) inside joke) for allowing our paths to cross and may we continue to stay connected. The invite to the NHFL was not only for me but for all of the students that wonder what their truest potential can be when challenged.: : Coach thanks and the weekly agendas helped make some very competetive jr.coaches. Coach RM we just crowned our 06-07 Champ "DAnthony" the kid that kept asking you can he run plays that were penalty ridden when you came down) he beat Kelvin (Coach Staceys guy The "Chiefs") thanks. 21-14. An epic battle.

Coach George Diamond, I got your message, thanks. My desk is local only but you can call 12:20-1 732-745-5300 ext 6808.

All is not lost I have summer work and I will DJ and teach private Martial Arts classess for the summer.

Raiderman is sort of the George Washington of EF in NJ.
I like that vision. RM crossing the Delaware in a boat with his Sting rowing across to Jersey. :-)

I see the ship Coach RM, Coach ED, Coach Joe, Coaches all over the edges of the boat coming together for one major cause....to get to the other side and take on the next challenge.....competition adrenaline last a game....a brotherhood last a life time. It will continue..........
