SKIRMISH


Skirmish Rugby Football isn't ashamed of it's middle name. Rugby fans will feel familiar with it's scoring values and termonology. Skirmish is Rugby's grandchild while being an American down and distance football game. 
  Some concepts are new like zone lines which start a new series of downs from that line with the aim to cross the next zone line. While others are restored to their origins like the Try which was American football's original touchdown of 5 points before 1912. 
 So if you're American and some of this looks a whole lot different, be open minded. I allowed myself to see the game as having possibilities. Once I took off the orthodox hat I began to be able to envision a game that reflects spring with all it's grandure. 
  Skirmish rules are right here if anyone wants to gather two teams and some referees and learn the game then play the game. Just email me your phone number and I'll explain or help you in any way play this awsome new sport. Oh, it's safer too. 



Skirmish Atlantic is the first entity of many I wish to provide former college athletes as a path to freedom from usury that I believe has become predatory and abusive. When we lift a burden from a human being we allow that individual to create wonder and infinite possibility. Our sport's mission is to free as many of our youth to pursue their passions free of the yoke of student debt. We can never imagine the results of what this will achieve. Human beings are by their nature creatures of unlimited possibility. If one of them imagines something and communicates their vision to others it won't be long before that vision becomes a realty.
This is my vision.

The "Earl" is the Skirmish game ball. It honors football and baseball hall of famer Earl"Greasy"Neale who coached my grandfather at West Virginia. Coach Neale left West Virginia in 1934 to coach running backs at Yale. He went on to coach the Philadelphia Eagles to two NFL championships in 1948 & 49. Earl Neale also started the NFL draft. Earl Neale was a rightfielder for the Cincinatti Reds in 1918 who won the World Series against the Chicago White Sox.

BEHIND THE SCENES

 The TV coverage will be great except some of it will look really bad. We have to look cheap. Big headphones, large orange mic covers, plaid polyester blazers, 1982 graphics, it's almost cable access bad but on purpose. America will fall in love with us. They'll get it.  
  
We'll have a sports anchor, two former players and the 4th guy is a decomissioned artificial intelegence from the 1960's. He's a wooden box with a pulsating red light when he talks.   He sounds like a 60 something cigar smoker who lives at horse tracks. He's always wrong and blames it on faulty data. His name is Sal 5000. He does all the guest chef segments.

There's a weather girl too. So if somebody's rolling out of bed in San Diego they're getting Atlantic City's weather from a girl chewing gum, wearing leopard spandex with 80's teazed big hair and too much heavy metal eye makeup. She looks like she just had an all nighter on a Whitesnake tour bus. It is Jersey.

 There's also a frumpy traffic girl who's paranoid and has tons of conspiracy theories. She's destined to live in a mobile home with her 12 cats.   

Finally right before the midfield card draw to see which home team kicks off. One verse of Jersey Girl is performed as if it's the official state anthem.

SKIRMISH: PRE GAME SHOW

As you can see I'm a dump truck driver. I hate what the banks and colleges are doing to our kids. I'm not going to stand by and watch our kids and grandkids turned into debt slaves.
Everyone I know understands there's something wrong but just doesn't know what it is. I know and I want everyone to know too. It's the guy who can create money out of thin air. He's humanity's real enemy. 
So I designed a concept to get people thinking while having fun.
