American Football Conference

I attended my first football game when I was four years old. It was a thrilling contest between my dad’s alma matar, Penn State, and the Badgers of Wisconsin, which I remember exactly zero of. Sports have always been an important subject aspect of my family life at home. I attended at least one Ole Miss, my mom’s alma matar, football game every year from the time I was 4 until I was 14. My mother a southern girl who like football as much as if not more than my father would turn into a crazy…

school. At some schools there are boys volleyball teams and thats a ‘girls’ sport, so why can’t there be a girls football team? Some may try and say that girls aren't tough enough to play with the boys. “First, it's called a boys' team for a reason girls don't have the body for it so how would they be able to do the techniques that actually work towards the goal for winning? Example: FOOTBALL! Try watching a girl play that and then come back and tell me what you think” (anonymous). This quote…

Of course school still I had more love then I expected coming back to school after missing a few days walking with a crutch realizing already how it’s a gift to play football, and have nothing disabling you from playing. I felt different just watching things in a chair sitting down where I would normally be running around skipping school at this time. Just sitting in one class the whole day to avoid walking.…

Growing up attending Broncos games, I am familiar with the National Football League and the variety of people required to make games run smoothly. Accordingly, I have fallen in love with the idea of being a Sports Media major. Correspondingly, being raised in a sports-driven community, athletics are of great…

For fun and diversion, sports has been my number one outlet. The game of football has been a passion of mine for as long as I can recall, and it shows how hard work can pay off. The countless hours in the film room, relentless practices, and preparing day and night to get the win is what makes football such a great time. I just recently finished my second semi-professional football season in Indiana, as a running back and cornerback. Although I am unsure whether I will play again, I feel that it…

Community Essay Determination is an important quality of a member in a thriving community. I found this quality in many texts that I read and it really stood out to me. The story I found determination in was “Gamers to the End” and a video called “Backwards Brain Bicycle”. “Backwards Brain Bicycle” is about a guy that learns how to ride a backwards bicycle. He demonstrates determination because the guy says “I practiced for 8 months, and 5 minutes every day.” This shows determination…
