Some thing that’s always interested me football. I was supposed to play here but after camp I did not enjoy the environment. But deep down I still want to play. Its one of the main reasons that made my high school were so great and probably kept me out of trouble. Also probably why I got out of trouble sometimes. But since we had such a small town, our town would be at the football games every Friday and kept up with every thing that happened with football. It provided me with things that will stay with me for the rest of life. The leadership that football provided me is some thing I can never forget. Being a captain provide roles that I never expected and gave me responsibilities that would help me later in life. It also provided me with relationships with people that I’ll never forget. All our seniors have been together since Pop Warner football, so we’ve been close for almost 13 years on and off the field. So the group of kids that we played with were like family. But that didn’t mean we always got along but the up and downs were what made us closer. Just like our coach always told us, “ Football is like life, you’ll have your up and downs, but it’s what you do with your up and downs that will make you.” It is inspiration like that drove us to strive for greatness. This is probably why when we had our senior dinner with our coaches we heard all their stories about their high school football memories, and how passionate they were about the sport. The thing that was so shocking is that they still kept in touch with all of there fellow seniors still. During my senior year my coach had to go to a funeral of one of the kids he played ball with. So football is something I’m very interested and will always be a passion.
