School is a place to make friends and have fun, but most importantly to get smarter and do the best you can. But when I was younger I didn’t realize that. Now I know get your work done before anything because your grades are more important. I used to always mess around and wait to get my work done. I don’t mess around like I used to because if I do then I cant play my favorite sport, football! I want to do good in school so I can play football because if I don’t play football then I don’t get enough practice. So I'm going to work hard in school. I will begin to talk about my parents ,brothers ,and sister and my whole family. So here is a little about me.
My sense of humor. I'm funny and I like to joke around a lot I am also sarcastic in

My parents are awesome because if anytime I ever need help with anything they are right there. Every night I always eat something good. One time I broke my stereo speaker and he fixed it, I don’t know how though! My brother is a big gamer, and that’s all he really does. But my sisters they always do stuff together. So I hang out with my friends. After football they come over and we eat then go to Marshall. We will play catch or sometimes just sit and cool down. After practice if its really hot I just sit at home and play madden or something. The only time I don’t hang out is if I'm not wanting to do anything or if I am sick I always get sick in the winter. My sister likes to play catch sometimes. When we go out to swiss valley we will go swimming in the stream and catch crayfish. My sister doesn't like touching them so I got two plastic cups so she doesn't touch them. I always play catch there and love to play there because Its in the shade so it nice and cool. My grandpa loves to garden he has tomatoes, rhubarb, raspberry's, cucumbers and so much more. His house is always spotless and he Is very nice. His favorite baseball team is the cubs but his favorite football team is the bears. I hate the bears, and I love the packers they are
Football, one of the biggest sports in the United States, makes a lot of money. Everyone in America watches football no matter if they are young, old, male or female. It brings people together and might even tear relationships apart. A lot of people watch football, but not everyone understands the rules. I am here to help people understand the game of football.
Football is an American sport that consists of two teams composed of 11 men. On the 100-yard field, they go head to head, trying to keep the other team from advancing the ball down the field toward the end zone, resulting in a touchdown or field goal. Football pits the two teams against each other. The offense, which possesses the ball, is placed against the defense, which tries to prevent the offense from advancing the ball. Several different resources can contribute to a team’s success. Some of those resources are funds, talent level of players, and favorable position on the field, which makes it easier to score points. The four sociological perspectives, structural functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism, and social exchange theory, all credit different reasons for one team being able to achieve this goal more often than another team. Nevertheless, any of the sociological perspectives you view the sport from, football is a very complex entity. Football is more than just a group of men pounding one another. There is a complex equation that eventually equals success; the differences between these perspectives are the components of the equation that are most heavily weighed on for success. Although it may be a combination of all three perspectives that leads to success in football, it is fair to look at the game from each perspective individually because each holds important insight into what truly leads to a successful football team.
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.
Football is a game of passion, a time when nothing else matters and the only thing that matters is going out there having fun and fighting for the guy next to you. Football has always been something that I loved and had a wild passion for. I’ve made friendships and memories to last a life time and I can always be grateful that football did that for me. Now of course I’ve had some bad memories during football as well, I remember walking out of the film room on the last day of spring ball and having Coach Antle grab me and say “Gage, I think I want to try you at a new position, I want to put you at defensive end. We need you more there and we think you can really excel there.” I remember being so furious, I had played linebacker ever since I could remember and now the last day of spring ball my senior year everything was about to change.

Growing up in southeast Texas, football is rite of passage for young boys. It is used to teach lessons about teamwork, winning and defeat, and to toughen young boys up and mold them into young men. Most boys start playing in the fourth and fifth grade and continue to play all the way through their senior year of high school. Over the years, the love of the game grows into a passion that is almost impossible to explain. All of this leads up to senior night, where you defend your home turf for the last time, unless you are forced against every ounce of your will to stand on the sideline in a jersey and blue jeans.
It was a hot and sunny day in the month of May in the summer of 2016, and sports started to frustrate me. I, struggling with the game of football because of my size and strength, had no clue what to do. I wanted to quit. I wanted to give up, but my father said no. he said unless I can find something else to do, he would not let me quit.
If I could wake up tomorrow and have one ability or quality it would be being at soccer.I would want to be good at soccer because I like playing soccer but I'm not really good at it.I want to learn more about soccer because I don't know much about soccer.For me soccer is a good sport to do exercise.You can lose wait by playing soccer.I also would like to be good at soccer because I just like how they play it.I think soccer is a good sport to play to have fun.Soccer is what I want to be good in because its fun and to play.I like to be kicking the ball.
The theme of Tuesday’s practice is defense. The Rams are building on a defense that was top ten in total defense last season and looking for the front seven to help lead the way again. The defensive unit is looking to take another step forward and defensive coordinator Gregg Williams will be the guy to see that it happens. The last two seasons under Williams the Rams defense showed significant progress, Gregg is hoping for the positive progress to continue this season.
It all started when I was about three years old when my good friend Anthony Williams and I became friends when he ran his bike into my sand box. Football has been an event in my life since I was three years old and it still is today. “The key to life is not what life gives to you but what you take from life. It’s not how life treats you but how you treat life. You have a choice in life. You can either thrive or survive.”_ Coach London. Football has made me into the person I am today, hard working, and determined.
Green grass splattered with tiny drops of rain, wrung from soft rain-clouds, tickle my sandaled feet as I walk across the field. Each step brings me closer and closer to the noise and excitement of the game but, even that isn't going to distract me. I imagine his face now, smiling at me. Absolute bliss wriggles its way like a worm into my stomach and suddenly I can't breathe. I almost laugh at myself for getting so flustered but then I remember that there's no time for that and my step counts continue – three... four....five.....
Playing football has had the most impact on the development of my character. I started playing football when I was 5 years old. Playing football has taught me many valuable lessons. While playing football, I have better understood the values of hard work. Football taught me that the only way to succeed in something is by working harder than anyone else. Football has also taught me that when working with a team, everybody has an important role and if one person slacks off it hurts the entire team. There is no “I” in team and teamwork is a valuable life lesson. Whenever teammates are focused on individual accomplishments, instead of the team’s success, the team as a whole does not perform as well. I have learned through this that when you
Football season is upon us. The New England Patriots have the Lombardi Trophy, and every other team in the NFL wants it. Spoiler alert: the Patriots will return to the Super Bowl this season to retain what they believe is their’s to keep.
For as long as I can remember football has been a part of my life in some way, shape, or form. When I was first born my grandfather said that I was solid and built to play football. I used to throw the football with my mother when I was a toddler and she always told me that when I tried to tackle her I hit really hard. My first organized football experience was when I was five. I had just moved to Manassas, VA from Washington, D.C. in 1994. It was around fall and that was right at the beginning of football season in the area. I remember telling my mother that I wanted to play, so she looked for a local organization for children. She came across the Greater Manassas Football League (GMFL) and that is where I began to play the game I
When people start high school they’re usually so excited. They can’t wait to experience everything that comes with being in high school, I mean who wouldn’t? Everyone says that high school is the best four years of your life. Now that I’m months away from graduating, I can’t say they were my best years but I can say they were my most educational years, of course I wouldn’t say that they weren’t fun because they were. When I say educational, I mean I’ve learned so much about myself and so much about life. I learned what the words family, love, betrayal, law and life meant. All these events changed me, and I’m glad they happened because I wouldn’t have learned all these lessons. My personality hasn’t changed; I’m still a carefree girl,
