    Default Football words or short sayings

    I am making a memory type quilt for a friend with alzheimers & have it ready to quilt, I will be using written words rather than a quilt pattern to actually "quilt" it. These are the ones we have come up with so far & would really appreciate any you can think of that are "nice ones"
    Pass the ball; Go Team; Roughing the Passer; Red Flag -Challenge; Yellow Flag-Foul-Penalty; Ten yards: Lineup; Kick-off; Fumble; Touchdown; Run it out; Intercepted; Quarterback; Referees; Intentional grounding; Sidelines; Pigskin; Strategy; Field goal

    I don't know exactly what I will & won't use but if you have other suggestions, I'd really appreciate hearing them, thanks!

    I'd like to suggest using College Foot Ball slogans, if this person had been a College FB fan! Roll Tide, Crimson Tide, War Eagle, Fearless and True, Oregon Win the Day, Fighting Irish, Gig 'em Aggies - I found 52 here: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...sayings/page/1

    I'm also sure Pro teams have slogans that will bring on some smiles! You might also see if there was a team this person played for, was on the Pep Squad for etc. That little research might prove the best resource of all!

    Good luck and thank you for doing this.
