Default Introduce kids to MF and the MFCA

I'm still taking baby steps learning all the new stuff with MF, but I have an
idea. Todays' youngsters are all hung up on video games/video football.
EA has taken advantage of that and, as all of us know, has the Madden
Challenge and it's broadcast on ESPN. In all honesty, when you play
Madden or any video football game how often do you SEE the play?
You see what's going on as far as what player you control, but you
don't see the line play, the secondary and linebacker reaction none of
that. When kids play the game they know how to manipulate it to
get results, but is it a real understanding of the game? I believe this
is where MF has an edge. It is a teaching tool to understanding offenses
and defenses as a whole rather than control of a player. Our game,
yes, OUR GAME, also teaches you how to use your hands ie. painting,
tweaking, building boards, graphic designs, even stadium building
are just some of the things. OUR GAME is "hands on". We communicate
with each other sharing ideas.

With this in mind, when I am fully acclamated my desire is to introduce
MF to kids at one of the local churches. Show them the game the way
it was to where it is today. I'd like to create an interest where instead
of sitting in front of the TV or computer, the kids use their imaginations
and their hands creating and painting teams, sculpting new figures,
creating leagues, building boards, learning football and having fun.

We're men (my wife argues that point LOL) having a blast with MF.
Imagine a bunch of real kids with MF.

What do you think?
