A Career In Football

When I was big enough to hold a football I wanted to do this for the rest of my life. There was just something about football that really excited me. Me and my dad used to and still will stay up watching football all night I used to love watching old Atlanta Falcons running back Michael Turner the way he just ran through people and did not stop for anything just inspired me. I really don't like violence or watching people fighting but there is something about watching someone run through tackles or even run them over I wanted to be just like him.

Whenever I turned seven years old I started playing football I has always been a pretty dominant of a player. When my first Coach put me at offensive line I knew I would not be scoring any touchdowns but I would be making them happen. And one day we were just trying to get our positions and Coach asked me “ Can you snap the football” I told him “I can try” and I got down there and i snap the football to the quarterback perfectly I knew

That season I started started playing on both sides of the football it was challenging getting that many reps in every ball game that season I never came off the field I played offense, defense,kickoff, kickoff return, punt, and punt return.

That was my favorite football

    I had just entered my junior year in high school and was back to playing football, my grades were good so far and my A.D.D. medication was helping me a lot. Zach and I had just arrived at the union school for a junior varsity game against Oceanside high school, we geared up and got ready for the game. I started the game at quarterback and the game wasn't going well for us, which didn't come as a surprise because jv games are never enjoyable. I took the snap and rolled out to the left side of the field, no one was open so I tucked the ball under my arm and started to run up field, I had room to move, suddenly a linebacker running at me from my side started to shorten up his steps and set himself for a tackle, he tackled low but I…

    I believe that football is the best sport in the world for many reasons. Football is one of the most difficult/hardworking sports out there and if u not willing to put in the hard work you don’t deserve to be a football player. Football has some of the greatest names such as, Jerry Rice or Joe Montana Or even Cleveland’s own Jim Brown, this sport inspires millions of kids to play to work hard and learn how to work together as a team and work together to get W’s on and off the field. There are others sports that are just as good but football had a edge to me, you find touchdowns or good hits or great running and blocking in others sports, and most people like to see contact or great defense and football offers that every game of the season from 1st game to the last game. Plus football brings out the intensity in people literally, there’s people who where mask or, put paint on themselves or even go totally…
