The Great Game

and it turns out, that that they won their first game 8-1 and their second game 8-2. So then I was like, “Great, a team that’s good and we never play good in the mornings, this is gonna end well!” Plus it didn’t really help that it was wet outside so it would be even more difficult to stop the ball while I’m goalie. I had only given up one goal this whole year and we’re 2-0-0. Same with the other team. The referee blew the whistle, and the game started, they got to start off with the…

Hunting is viewed as a sport by many, but a game by few. It is a measurement of the wits of man versus the instincts of animals, and often times the mental strength of humans overcomes the physical strength of animals. In the past hunting was used as a means for survival, but today you can drive to the nearest grocery store and purchase your meat faster than you can load your rifle. Therefore, hunting is used more for recreational enjoyment than necessity. Many people in today's society use…

life. I experienced a realization during one of the largest soccer games of my life. My team was facing a very respected team that had been the victors against us for the past six years. We had been taking pressure the entire game and at one point they were up by four goals. The game was as if they knocked my team down and stepped over us, again and again. Then, they scored a another goal. I knew there was little hope for the game to go in my favor. Right then and there, my mentality permanently…

would be the only opportunity for teams to play. In circumstances like this, bringing boys and girls together provides children a chance to discover a sport they enjoy and do extremely well at. Lastly, having both genders on one team can alter how the game is played. Coed teams can help both sides develop and adjust, giving children a larger set of skills as they learn more in their sport. The downfalls would include, boys being more aggressive and some girls not wanting to be as competitive as…

while mentally preparing ourselves for the game that was about to be played. I sat down on the grass next to the bench and began to put on my socks and shinguards. It was a beautiful, sunny, and hot day. I wouldn’t have normally minded but playing in a soccer game while it’s hot isn’t the most fun thing in the world. This was my first time playing in a varsity game and of course it just so happened to be the district finals game. Since it was an away game for us, the other team had a bunch of…

sign had been there for a couple days, but seeing it one last time before the game gives me a sense of pride I never felt before. The entire team was up on their feet, screaming, and laughing. We are all having a great time together. Then suddenly, I got this horrible sick feeling. Maybe it was the nerves coming back or maybe it was me getting a little carsick. I must find a way to calm down so that I feel better come game time. I immediately cover my head with my blanket and snooze the whole…

sport, find a way to manage all their money that they receive in a short time, and they work hard away from games to become better. First of all, athletes are not overpaid because of all the revenue they bring to the different leagues. The SIRS database says that the argument could be made that athletes are just playing a simple game and making millions of dollars, however they are playing a game where they are being watched and scrutinized my millions of people, and they are putting their own…
