When discussing the best quarterback in the NFL every year, people usually narrow this list down to two; Peyton Manning and Tom Brady.

Athletes are some of the hardest working people in today's economy. They are constantly training to be the best that they can be. Because of this, it's not a surprise that a lot of people look up to athletes. One of the athletes that I look up to is Aaron Rodgers. He is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. Rodgers has fought through many injuries, while still pushing on. Aaron's love of sports started when he was very young. As a child, he would throw around a football with his father and…
Are the New York Yankees too old to be successful? Facts mostly say that they are not too old. It could just be that the players the Yankees have right now are just having bad seasons or seasons meaning they are underperforming. Then again it could be age, age is a big factor in sports the older you get the more prone to injuries and your physical skills start to decline but like I said facts say that they are not too old. When players play hurt when they are younger it does not really affect…

who are willing to put in extra time and effort earn main roles on the team. Meanwhile, positive teammates who may not be as athletically gifted or old enough to play in a starring position, make the team to fulfill a supporting role throughout the season. The starters, main players, supporters, and even bench warmers are important to the success of the team. High school coaches should not be required to give equal playing time to all athletes who make the team because there are multiple spots…

haven’t had much to get excited about in recent years. While there have been glimmers of hope, particularly for the Houston Texans, having made three Divisional Round appearances (2011, 2012, 2016), the AFC South has been wildly inconsistent, especially following Peyton Manning’s departure from the Indianapolis Colts in 2011. Honestly, the only real consistency has been the Jacksonville Jaguars’ miserable performances, which haven't produced a season above .500 in nearly a decade! Presently,…
school, everyone dreams of having that perfect sports season their senior year. Everyone hopes that they can be the senior that leaves an impression on the underclassmen, whether it’s teaching them something new or giving them a taste of playoffs so they have the drive to get back to there once you’ve graduated. I remember being a freshman and not only getting the taste of playoffs, but getting the whole thing. We made it through playoffs that year and won states against our rivals. Not only…
