The 2026 @VUU_Football#Play411 Specialist Camp was a success! We had a great turnout of athletes and an outstanding coaching staff. Thank you to everyone who came out and made my first camp as “Coach Myers” one to remember.
« Don’t mess with anyone over fifty »
Seriously, they’re not just another generation: they’re true survivors.
Tough as stale bread, quick as grandma’s slippers launched at the nape of the neck with surgical precision.
At five years old, they could already “read” their mother’s mood from the clatter of the saucepan.
At seven, they had a set of keys with these instructions:
« You’ll find food in the fridge, warm it up… but don’t burn it. »
At nine, they cooked without a recipe; at ten, they knew how to turn off a faucet and flee the neighbor’s dog with a bucket on their head.
They spent the whole day outside, without a phone, with a clear program: play in the street with the neighbors and come home at dusk, knees covered in scrapes — the map of their little victorious battles.
They treated scrapes with a bit of spit, ate bread with sugar, drank water straight from the hose and didn’t know allergies — and if they existed, they didn’t talk about them.
They still know tricks for removing stains from clothes, because they always had to come home “presentable.”
And that’s not all; they experienced:
– battery-powered radios
– tube televisions
– record players and vinyls
– cassettes
– CDs and the Discman
… and now, they carry thousands of songs on their phone, but miss the crrr of rewinding a cassette with a pen.
With a driver’s license in hand, they crossed the country in an old car, without hotels, without air conditioning, without GPS — just a road map, a ham or hard-boiled egg sandwich … and they always arrived at their destination, without Google Maps!
They’re the last generation to have lived without the Internet, without portable chargers, and without the anxiety of running out of battery.
They remember rotary phones, handwritten recipe books, and birthdays noted in a little notebook (or forgotten).
They:
– fix everything with tape or a piece of string
– had just one black-and-white TV channel and never got bored
– leafed through the phone book
– thought a missed call meant: « I’m fine, I’ll call you back. »
They’re different: equipped with an “emotional shield,” an immune system forged in scarcity, and cat-like reflexes.
Don’t try to provoke a fifty-something: they’ve seen more, lived more deeply, and carry in their pocket a piece of candy older than your child.
They survived a childhood without car seats, without helmets, without sunscreen; school without phones, youth without endless scrolling.
They don’t look for answers on Google: they trust their instincts and their memory.
And they have more memories than you have photos in your cloud.
If you’re still unsigned and believe you belong, March 21 is your opportunity. VUU Football will host our Unsigned Camp come compete, get evaluated, and show why you deserve a shot. The door is still open for those willing to WORK.
