Personal Narrative: Why The Kansas Jayhawks Is Better Than Football

September 20, 2011 was the day that everything changed. Practice that day was long and excruciatingly hot. My coach did not let me take a rest as I was the only full back we had at the time. Hit after hit, it started to add up and my world was spinning but coach told me to keep going, so I did. The very next snap my world got wrecked. My form became lazy because I was beyond exhausted and dehydrated, my head lead my attempt to break the tackle and the kid making the tackle lead with his head as well. Just like that my body went numb, everything was dark, my eyes were open but I could not see. I had no sense of where I was and where I was going. My name left me. At this point I did not know if I was dead or alive. This was the last time I was ever able to strap up and play the game of football. This is what happens to the millions of kids who play football on a daily basis. Somebody was there telling them to go back in even when they were showing early signs of a concussion. The athlete takes one more hit straight to the head out of poor form or exhaustion and then everything goes from bad to worse. These events take place at such a young age that the long term side effects can be fatal.

I’m going to inform you why the Denver Broncos are one of the best NFL teams to root for. They have a lot of really cool people on their team like Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, CJ Anderson, and more. These are all really cool people to watch and just to see on TV, they make plays time after time and they are good people on and off of the field.

With a score of 44 to 37, the Varsity Football Team won against the Midway Panthers last Friday night at Waco.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va.--One loss doesn't define a football season, unless a team lets that loss defeat their hopes and dreams.

I felt like my stomach was going to digest itself It was my first year of flames football we’re getting ready to get our teams picked.I did so bad in pre-season, I’ll probably be on the worst team.

It was seventh grade year, I was one of the smallest kids in my grade. My biggest dream at that time was to start on the seventh grade A team as a linebacker. The first day of practice we went to the defensive position that we wanted to play, so therefore I went to the linebacker coach. When I went over there he just laughed at me and told me to go over to the safety coach because I was just to small. So I did and ended up being decent at the position. Thankfully I was able to go to the position on offence that I wanted, which was running back. I ended up starting B team as a safety and a running back.

Stephen is a senior transferred to WCSU from Miami University in Ohio, it is better known for the home of the famous NFL quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. That one fact made it a little easier to bond and converse with Stephen as I am a huge football fan and he happens to coach football. It wasn’t Stephen’s idea to transfer but his parents, they decided it was too expensive for him to go to school so far from home. He therefore transfer here and now lives in his parents basement in Ridgefield CT, and he commutes to school. Stephen is majoring in media studies and he hopes to do something in the field of being a promoter or a publicist. Stephen coaches high school football mainly to freshman's and he also is part of a baseball league. Stephen also loves to sing even though he claims he isn’t so good at it.

1.5 seconds. I had developed an automatic timer in my head, and when it hit 1.5 seconds, I was in trouble. It was physically and mentally agonizing playing quarterback behind an offensive line that was known as being the smallest (and worst) our state division has ever seen. On average, my offensive line would give me 1.5 seconds to throw the ball before getting sacked by opposing defensive linemen. During many plays, I failed to find an open receiver in my allotted time, so I ran for my life - trying to extend the play, avoid getting sacked, and most importantly, avoid getting hurt. I grew up playing wide receiver, but switched positions when our quarterback decided to transfer schools because he couldn’t handle the brutality he faced during

I absolutely love sports. From football to soccer I love all sports, some more than others. My top 3 sports however are baseball, football, and basketball. I have been playing baseball since I was 2 years old. Baseball is a sport that many find boring but not me. Over the years I have been to several Atlanta Braves games and caught a few souvenirs as well. I’ve been a football fan since I was a young child. My favorite team is the Atlanta Falcons and I know the team inside and out. I know every player, coach, what players hold certain records and so forth. Football might be the one sport that I take more seriously than any other. Basketball is a sport that I played as a child, but as I grew older watching became more interesting than

It was opening night for our football team, a chilly night in September against one of our rivals, the Nickerson Panthers. The stands were packed like a can of sardines. Our team had been ruling the scoreboard all night, but now the panthers were in the red zone threatening to score. Three years ago we wouldn’t have had a chance against this team, but now we had the upper hand. Through the weightlifting program and improvement of team building, success is inevitable. Our football team is a great example of how hard work and great leadership not only pull a group of kids, but also a whole community together.

The whole team knows it is going to be a tough game. Although Seattle had been top of the table since the season began, it was Kansas City who the Spirit now faced in the NWSL final. Ali Krieger gathered the team into a huddle a few minutes before they were scheduled to take the field.

My favorite is football team is the Indianapolis colts. I like them because they have one of the fastest wide receiver in the NFL his name is T.Y Hilton I like him because he is one of the best. I also like their quarterback his name is Andrew Luck. i like him because he seems really nice. Also they have one of the oldest running backs in the world

The last Leesville High School game was the biggest game of all. Everyone was chanting for the team. And then all the sudden… BOOM, the football team came out and the fans were crazy. My family and I were sitting down and then we seen my brother #63 running out ready to play his last game. As everyone sat down they had t-shirts to throw out into the crowd. The shirts were gold and black, with the picture of the Wampus cat the school mascot. The people in the crowd were loud and never stopped dancing, and waving the banners in the air.

variety of sports such as football, basketball, cross country, and soccer. I like football because I can tackle people and I can hit people without getting in trouble and sometimes I’m supposed to run with the ball. I enjoy basketball because passing the and throwing it into the hoop is entertaining. In cross country, I am able to run and run for miles and when I tire out I need to keep going. In soccer I can show off my leg reflexes and skills without using my hands. I have adored basketball and soccer since I was four or five. They were the sports that brought me to become the athlete I’m today. I became interested in cross country because I’m fast in track and field and just in general. I joined football because my parents said it would be a great experience and That I am someone who

It's always fun to do things I have done at other stages in my life and see different perspectives. I went to a high school football game. It's been years since I've done that. Took J, who I was excited to show how if he worked hard people could cheer for him. I'm just months shy of 30 and the coolest part of tonight for me was telling J to watch one the Tolton players check on and help up a player he tackled who was having trouble getting up from the opposing team. Sure talking to him about the running back chopping his feet or how the players don't sit when they aren't in, even on the sidelines, was good and important. But older me remembered that sportsmanship part, that lesson, more than anything else. Not sure, when I was in high school
