been screamed in my face by coach Eben. I swear the man thinks we could end world hunger if everyone would just have good alignment, assignment, and technique. Alignment, assignment, and technique are also known as AAT. To play anywhere on the football field you have to have good AAT, but especially if you want to play defensive tackle, or DT.

We were midway through a tough season as we trotted onto Maquoketa’s field. Injury and mental mistakes had dropped us to a disappointing 0-3. We were hungry for a win, and we were playing our rivals. Music blared as we put our pads on, and the feeling in my gut before the game is indescribable. Our fullback was back after suffering a knee injury in our first game, and our wide receiver was back after being sick for the past week. I was so ready to play I just knew we were going to roll right

Diversity is something that I believe is very important in any situation. Without diversity, people would be too similar. Diversity makes people who they are. I am a 14-year-old soccer player who moved to California after living in Massachusetts for 5 years, is have over 50 first cousins all of which are from Massachusetts. Not one other person in the world is the same as me. I think diversity represents the fact that people are snowflakes, not in the sense that people are weak or fragile but that
Football in the long run ,is a lot more dangerous than rugby. Before every football season i come to my school extra early in the morning to watch a concussion video, but during the video my coaches and even trainers make it abruptly clear that it is important to report if you think you have a concussion.

takes a debatable position in “Get Football Out of Our Universities” by guarding reasons on why he considers football should not be prioritized over education. Although I am not a fan of football, I found Salzberg’s inflection and style to be arrogant and displeasing.
