She gets to play defense when she get penalized for having her backfield in motion.

playing tight end no doubt

This one is cute!

Hooray! Despite aging several decades, they can still run! Yes I admit to envy. Creeping/ shuffling was not how I envisioned my senior years.

This sure is nice! Many more couples should learn to do things like this! But unfortunately, in our society we tend to put more emphasis on good looks and sex instead of focusing on having things in common and doing things together!

You are Janis, you just don’t know it ;)

Illegal use of hands.

Intentional Grounding… ☺

They’re fun!

Whether the stone hits the pitcher or the pitcher hits the stone someone’s going deep.

Why, because you are fun to tackle, a soft place to land.

He will let you play defense and I’ll bet he will run slow just you can catch him.

He has her just where he wants her!

Contact sports.

Arlo just LOVES tackling Janis. ;)

First down… then feathers.

I’m gonna say that she would be called for a face mask violation in the third part of the strip. 5 yards and a snuggle!

Backfield in motion

Oh nice touch .football. Watch your hands Arlo

I think he meant to say “First Base!”

I want to see the panel where Janis is the center and Arlo is the QB taking a direct snap from her

After he scores…..

When both teams win

When I was a kid (11, 12 years old), there was always something special about playing tackle football with girls, especially tomboys.

Of course, we couldn’t quite put our finger on it, but in another 2 or 3 years, we had it all figured out.

When you get to be less fun to tackle.

She’ll get a chance to play defense on fourth and half a foot. Game decided by less than an inch. Either way she gets carried off the field.

You’re not kids anymore…

Someone’s going to get hurt, then where will you be?

She obviously loves his tackle
