“ Another season another loss said Blaine, as he was looking at his season schedule while he was walking to school and It was late september and some leafs on the ground. First of all we were terrible last year. Terrible!!! He repeated, as he was expressing how mad he was. And we are losing players. I mean no one wants to play on a team that doesn't know how to the game of FOOTBALL. Our other QB throws a trashy wobbly pass that is automatically return for six. Our wide receivers can’t catch for their life. Are defense line are a bunch of sally's and our safeties are too slow. Don’t even get me started on our secondary!” And Blaine went on and on telling his friend Jerry the running back how bad the team was. But he wasn’t the only person who heard Jamison the “ Other ” QB was there. And he said “ It’s not like you can do any better. You can’t throw over 20 yards”. “ Lets see, whos better tonight is our first practice and the coaches will be looking for a QB! said Blaine, with an arrogant smile.” Then the day past and nothing happend at school, well except for the terrible social studies teacher Mrs. Powell handing out homework like crazy. Blaine got home using the bus and he hated everything about it, how the seats were too small the bus ride was long and most of all Jamison was on his bus. He hated the fact that Jamison was the starter last year and had to sit on the bench and try to be some stupid cheerleader. Blaine could go on and on for hours talking about how he
Once in the locker room Coach Wheeler gave a great speech on how he wanted everyone to do his best no matter what. Cody quietly said that they wouldn’t be able to do their best if he was coaching. Only a few people heard him including Tiki. This frustrated Tiki because Cody didn’t understand that all coach wanted to do was become a motivating coach and make the calls and plays. Tiki respected Coach Wheeler so much that this made him go home
Coach jogs back from the opposing dugout, “Alright, Caleb, you’re now a member of the Orange Crush, and Lydia is a part of the
I am sure that everyone of you have heard about aliens and UFOs. Indeed, we all have heard about the famous case of aliens and UFOs in Roswell, New Mexico. Most people might be interested in the topic of aliens, but I know that the majority of you just think of it as rumours and the existence of them are impossible. Therefore, I am standing here in front all of you to make you change your perspective. I am strongly confident that I have found the evidence of their real existence to convince all of you.
"There is some competition at the right side, and it has nothing to do with how (redshirt junior offensive lineman Kyle) Bosch or (redshirt sophomore offensive lineman) Marcell (Lazard) are doing. It has everything to do with how (redshirt freshman offensive lineman Colton McKivitz) Colt and (redshirt senior offensive lineman) Tony Matteo are doing. Those guys are fighting for a job right now."
"We just got to know their is a to more football to be played," senior safety Jarrod Harper said. "One loss isn't going to dictate our season, what this season has in store for us. We just got to regroup and come back this week and have a strong performance this week. Just be focused and locked in all week. Just get even more familiar with our opponent this week and come ready to play Saturday."
I entered the huddle and Josh uttered with worrieness in his voice, ” We will never win”. Hard to say but I agreed with him. One kid stood next to him that I never saw before. He was about 6’3. He must have been a 5th or 6th string.
This is a new season! No mistakes! We can make the Postseason!” said the announcer. “We have to play tough today.
We would follow Gaudin into anything, he inspired all of us. I looked around as we waited to run out onto the field. What I saw was a group of young men that had bonded and become a team. Win or lose, I was happy to be a Lion. I’ve busted through that navy and orange banner many times, but I will never forget the feeling I felt that night. We came to fight and fight we did. It was not long before we put the first points on the score board. Then we scored twice more! After the first half we were up 21-7. In the locker room coach encouraged us to keep fighting, and to rely on each other. Ridgewood’s coach must have given quite the pump up speech because they came for blood in the second half. They soon scored a touchdown which shifted their momentum. I myself was having trouble guarding a six foot three inch wide receiver. At only 5 foot six inches, I was at slight height disadvantage. In the final seconds of the game our opponent managed to charge down the field and score a touchdown. They were now an extra point away from tying the game. The clock was out of time, and they had a decision to make. Tie the game or go for a two point conversion to win it. They went for
It was Thursday, and he could feel the rush of the game already. He went to go watch the game film and he saw how big some of those linemen are. They were like a huge wall coming at the linebackers when they ran the ball. He knew it was going to be tough game and that he would have to step it up for his team.
We arrived a few days before the AFC Championship Game. I was thankfully one of the 6 outdoor footballs and not one of the balls only used for kicking or practice because I wanted to feel what it was like to be thrown by what could two of the best quarterbacks of all time when it is said and done. I also didn 't want to be the football that missed a field goal because of the wind or snow that is present at a night game at Gillette. We were picked up by Jim McNally and John Jastremski, the Patriot equipment managers. They took us to their office and set us in the corner behind their desk. I was on top of the bag so I had a perfect view of their computers and I was stunned by what I saw. Jim and John were talking to Brady about how he wanted us prepared. This is pretty normal for teams to do and with a star
“You think we won the last game on a fluke? Cause I do. You squeaked passed in the last minute. GO!” Coach Goodspeed explained as we paraded to the opposite end of the field.
We go out there and play the second half better than we did the first. The final score was 26-6 in favor of Clarksburg, so if you only counted the second half the game would have been 6-6. Ultimately the game, and the season as whole didn’t go the way that I would’ve liked as we finished with a 2-8 record, both of those wins came in after I returned in week six. It’s not about how we did as a team but what I could learn from the season as how to really work hard for others to get them in the right position and what it means to be a true
"We have to buckle down in the red zone and hold them. What we've been doing all year is trying to force teams to kick field goals and try to win with points-per-possession inside the 40-yard line, our offense score touchdowns and our defense hold teams to field goals. Obviously, you want to go in and stop the run and control the pass, and that allows us to do some more things in coverage."
“Taylor!” yelled coach, “get your head in the game. We are about to face off the Vikings. We haven’t lost to this team in years. We will win! We can win! Ready boys, hands in. One! Two! Three! MUSTANGS!”
For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the
