The Ability Of Football

First I will talk about the players on teams and what each player does during a game, then I will tell you about the different positions of the field, and lastly on what a team will do on both the Offense and Defense.

A couple of weeks ago, Philadelphia Eagles' second-round pick cornerback Sidney Jones participated in first NFL practice after 10 months of rehab. Jones, who was projected to be a first-round pick in this past spring's NFL draft, ruptured his Achilles at his pro-day at the University of Washington on March 11.

The term sport is highly complex and often tough for people to define. Concepts that are associated with sport can be equally hard to understand. One such concept is deviance among athletes. Coakley states that “Deviance occurs when a person’s ideas, traits, or actions are perceived by others to fall outside the normal range of acceptance in a society” (Coakley, 2015, p.108). These normal ranges of acceptance are created by societal norms. There are two kinds of norms; “formal, which are explicitly written rules or laws and informal, which are unwritten customs and traditions of how a person should think and act in society” (Coakley, 2015, p.108). In order to be able to examine deviance, one must first define the norms in their area of interest. For the purposes of this paper, the area of interest is football. Football is a social world in which the prevalence of deviance is high. There are many levels of football, and this paper focuses on High School football players.

1) Some commonalities in “ The Gettysburg Address,” and this is that they both use figurative language and rhetorical devices. For example in “The Gettysburg Address,” Lincoln uses parallelism. He uses parallelism when he says, “ that government of the people, by the people, for the people.” In the LT HOF Speech Tomlinson uses parallelism when he says, “ Let’s not slam the door on those who may look or sound different from us. Rather, let’s open it wide for those who believe in themselves, that anything is possible, and are willing to compete and take whatever risks necessary to work hard, to succeed When we open the door for others to compete, we fulfill the promise of ‘one Nation under God with liberty and justice for all.”

First,There is a lot of different positions to play in football. There's a wide receiver position for people who are good at catching, Quarterback for people who can throw,running back for people who are quick at running and many more. There’s also the defense for people who excel at at a more defensive style. Theres the Defensive line for much larger men whose only job is to apply presser of the quarterback or try to get the running back when the ball is handed off. Then there is the cornerbacks who cover the wide receivers. The linebackers who rush the quarterback and cover

My philosophy for football is to be a fundamentalist. Fundamentals should be worked on every day, and should never be overlooked. Besides the individual fundamental techniques of the different positions, I believe the game holds fundamental truths.

I want to be an American football player in the National Football League. Something I would want to know about football player is the behind the scenes of

The football is in the air and the receiver is running a crisp post route towards the free safety just along the hash marks and the goal line when suddenly he receives a helmet-to-helmet hit that leaves him unconscious. This is something that occurs far too often in the sport of football. Football has been around since 1869 and the National Football League (NFL) was established in 1920. Over the last few decades the NFL has grown to become a multi-billion dollar organization whose annual championship game is America’s most watched event each year. With each year the NFL grows, so does the concern for each player’s safety. The most common concern is the traumatic injury in football known as a concussion. A concussion is defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary as, “a stunning, damaging, or shattering effect from a hard blow; especially :  a jarring injury of the brain resulting in disturbance of cerebral function.” (Webster) Even though the NFL has denied the link between serious head trauma and football for many years, the NFL should do more to protect their players from future head trauma because new research shows the long term effects of concussions in football players and many former NFL players have been diagnosed with serious brain diseases.

Football, a game of big plays and big hits, is a big reason as to why it is so popular. From a spectator standpoint, looking for that “big hit” is something that we all look forward to. From a players’ standpoint however, it could be that same hit that can cause depression, brain damage, or even something far worse than that: death. A single blow to the head can be detrimental for a football player, regardless of age, playing ability, or skill level. Concussions are not something that should be taken lightly in the sport world, especially when it comes to football, where there is heavy hitting on every play of every game as well as impact suffered during practices. That is why I wanted to do the research, find the facts and studies done, and help create a standardized way to help put a stop to concussions or at least minimize the number of occurrences. If a concussion does occur however, I want to be able to decide what process that we as sports managers should go through to make sure they receive proper treatment and recovery time. I want to be able to discuss the seriousness of concussions in football and what sports managers should do to reduce the number of incidents and the overall severity of them.

Once they complete the play their accomplishment on that play turns into resiliencey. Therefore, football could be one of the emotional, character building sports around. This section is about my resiliency in football and what traits I have to get through the challenges I faced.

Players are hitting each other as hard as they can or driving them out the play. There is always someone getting hurt by breaking their bones or getting a concussion. Football has 22 players on the field unlike basketball where there’s only 10. There's 5 from each team on basketball and 11 for football. Football you have to have a quarterback, running back, fullback, wide receivers, tight ends, and linemen to operate

Ever since I could walk, I can remember being involved in some kind of sport. Whether it was recreational or competitive, I wanted to be involved in it. As the years went on, my passion for athletics narrowed to one particular sport, football. What drew me to this particular sport are its three main characteristics: physicality, mental prowess, and the intangibles. These assets are required for not only a person, but a team to be successful.

As a centre midfielder, I need to do the job that ensures that my team

I observed that she is from a Spanish speaking country, living in the rural area. She was a tom-boy who loves to take care of bulls. The first time she saw a picture of a bullfighter, she became interested in the sport. She started the sport at a young age and when all the men in her family failed at their attempt she didn’t fail. She was dedicated in becoming a professional matador in which she did. Before she enters the bull ring she practice her routine, dressing in her jump shot of fine patterns and dazzling decorations. In the ring, she uses a red flag to distract the bull in order to kill it. The way she moves in the ring reveals her love for the sport.

Most people only see me an average kid, playing a game on a field, with a soccer ball. Nothing more, nothing less. I think about times when I played well, when I played poorly, when not everything has gone my way. I have had coaches tell me I'm one of the best on the team and I have had the director of coaches for my club tell me that I lack the skill needed to play for the A team.
