Football...the Greatest Sport Ever


Author’s note: This is a persuasive piece to inform people about football and to try to get them to joy or to watch football.

Do you think football is a great sport for all ages? In this sport you learn plenty of life lessons, discipline, and even communication. You win as a team you lose as team. You have to learn to stay together through everything nobody how bad you get beat. The one word you will hear in football a lot when you get good enough and trust each other that word is called family. It’s a big word family that’s how you have to stay together as a team the guys in your football team are your brothers that’s how you treat them. One football thing that just about every football team does is hold hands yes hold them. Football is a great for all ages.

Next big thing in football would be you learn life lessons all the time. You learn to work as a team if can’t work as a team then you lose, it’s has plan as can see. Working together is a life lesson you need for life with a team it’s harder. Communication is another big one without being able to talk to your teammates you won’t learn anything and you won’t run the play right. If you have a question and you’re afraid to talk to your teammate then you don’t know what is going on and you run the play wrong. This life lesson without you can talk to people and if you have a job interview and your shy then you won’t get that job.

Another reason why football is such a great sport is it helps later in life. It would help you because it makes you stronger and stronger means healthier and you can do more stuff. One big thing is discipline. You have to be able to have discipline to be able to play. You need to when not to talk and when to talk. If your coaches says something you don’t look at the ground you have to able to keep eyes on him at all times if you want a spot on the team. Football is like the real life you can’t screw around or you won’t be able to play and sitting on the sidelines is the worst thing that can happen to you.

Also one good thing to do at least it to watch it I guaranteed you will be closer to family and friends. When you watch it you most likely watch it with family or friends and then when you eat at the table or at school you have something to talk about. You know that when your family eats more meals together you will stay together longer. Plus most of the football NFL games are on Sunday so you can watch it on the most important day of the week because it the family day so after you get home from a good hour of church you go home and watch the Packers.

Finally football is the greatest sport in the world for all ages. I hope you can join or even watch football you won’t regret it. It brings family together and there is nothing more important than staying together as a family. Football is known for all these reasons and if you don’t even try to watch it or even play it you will regret it. If you think you are too old for it, play catch with your children if you don’t have any then call a friend if you don’t have any of those then that stinks to be you. If and older guy who as no shot at making it far just go grab a football and play catch with someone you know. Seriously if you’re young and looking for something to do try football even for a year if you truly don’t like it then you don’t have to play it, but if you work hard enough and don’t give up on your dreams and you’ll go far.

When Zombies Attack

Another’s note: I wrote the short story to entertain people about zombies and tell a story that happened to a man named Keith this story is a fiction.

This story is not a happy story, this is not a sad story, it just a story on how the great Keith survived the zombie apocalypse. Keith has brown eyes and short brown hair. First it starts off where Keith lives happily with his wife Gertrude, they have no kids. Gertrude has long beautiful brown hair and brown eyes. They are also known as the riches couple in the city. they lived at the top of the hill and in a huge mansion and had bullet proof walls with a gate. So they were really protected from anything, they made sure of that.

Then one day when they heard of a disease that was going around, they stocked up on food right away so they wouldn’t have to go out in public again, until of course they ran out of food. They had everything you could imagine from airplanes and an air port to every video game there is known to mankind. Yes they had their own airport that goes with their jets. They also have every book known to mankind in their library. Then when the disease spread all the way through the city and the people that didn’t have the disease had to leave the city for safety.

The only two people that didn’t leave were Keith and his wife because Keith believes that he has found a cure for this disease. But two years later Keith’s idea didn’t work at all so he was stuck but didn’t give up kept trying different things. He was getting so mad. One zombie that they captured was getting better slowly but it was talking like three years for it to get better. Keith thought there was no hope at all for curing the disease.

Then when all the zombies finally got smart enough they found one of the easiest places to fit through. All of the zombies went through the gate and surrounded the house. By now Keith just found out that his potion actually did work, the zombies where already surrounded the little bullet proof glass box and Keith gave the potion to his wife and she went into a bullet proof closest and hid there because Keith had two grenades and killed himself and all of the zombies surrounding them.

Then Keith’s wife went to a camp not far from the city that had a bunch of survivors living to there. She gave the potion to the scientist working there and they made more of the potion and they finally got over the zombie apocalypse. One thing that the world will never forget is the great Keith. I know that I said Keith would survive but he did for the most of the time at least but he saved millions of other lives along with his wife’s. They made a great big statue of him and his brave story in a great big gold statue.

Go Kart Racing

The first I drove a go kart was in Alexandria, Minnesota at a place called Casey’s. It had batting cages, mini golf, and some other stuff like bumper boats. It was a really fun place to hang out with friends and across the street there was a Dairy Queen and a Subway. So during the summer it was even better. After a round of golf we would go to Dairy Queen to get some ice cream and icees. It was also a great place for family member to meet and have parties or even bring your baseball team for practice in the cage and some fun after.

The Finals (Basketball)

The finals are fun to watch really the only best part of the NBA basketball season because that’s when the teams actually try there hardest. It has been a tough battle so far this year. Now they are down to two teams the Miami Heat and the Dallas Mavericks. I would like to see the heat win and for the NBA it is best of 7 games and so far the heat have won game one the only game has happened. The Heat won 92 to 84 it was close and with the heat having the 2 best players in the NBA Dwayne Wade and Lebron James score a lot of their points. On the Mavericks they have Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Kidd. Dirk is like 6’ 10” and he can shoot from anywhere on the court he is the Mavericks Center and is a beast. Jason Kidd is pretty good he can shoot 3’s and he had his good day playing with the New Jersey Nets. I hope the Heat win it all and I bet they will.

Skateboarding

I can really skateboard but I do it anyways. It was on a Wednesday when I was having a skateboarding competition with my friend Chase Seliger. We really lost track because I am terrible at skateboarding. He is really good so he took it easy on me. Then he just started teaching me some tricks. The game we were trying to play is SK8 (skate) its where one person does one trick and then you have to do that trick too. So it’s like horse only there is 3 letters S-K-8 It was really fun that day there is also another game you can play like that it is called 1UP but it deals with how many points each trick is then you had it up and the other person has to get a better score.

Zombie Movies

Zombie movies can be very funny and also very scary. There is that one movie called Zombie land that movie is one of the funny type movies. One scary I know is the Crazies that one is kind of creepy. Not really that scary but yet it is just really creepy instead of funny or pointless like the other ones like Shaun of the Dead that one is funny. I don’t think zombies could ever be really they have a weird like disease in their bodies.

The first time I watched Zombie land was with Jack Renick he seen it before me so he was like talking and kind of spoiling it for I don’t really like when people do that during a movie. Another cool zombie movie is I am Legend with Will Smith I kind o like that one. The one was kind of scary creep too like the part where the zombie people start to eat the dear and they are all around it. I am Legend is more of an action one well they all are but that one has a lot of action.

For one thing I don’t really get is that they make zombies in zombie movies like really fast except the funny ones otherwise like in I am Legend the zombies are like super heroes that are really strong and fast but they take like a thousand bullets to kills. That to me is really dumb to have them be like super speedy and all they have is some disease or something.

Buildings

Buildings are great we use them for shelter and for just everyday life in the real world. We use buildings to party in, to have meetings in, and even to have sporting events. I feel sad and I hope Haiti is doing fine after all of their buildings came down in the earthquake and now they live in little houses. Buildings do a lot of things for us like keep us dry from a rain storm bring happiness and joy from meeting a new friend at school. I don’t know where school would be without school buildings and without buildings there wouldn’t be any jobs for people to make the buildings and to supply the workers with the stuff they need to build.

Clothes

Clothes are a good thing without them this world would be weird and gross. Our first clothes were tree leafs that Adam and Eve wore. You can really tell some ones personality by looking at their clothes. People who think they are really cool sag their pants. Other people who wear skinny jeans skateboard, have the great shape body for them, or even think they are cool. People who wear shorts play basketball or it is hot out. So there are very different types of style and very different types of attitude.

Books and Technology

Books and Technology play a great role in school areas because without them at all we wouldn’t know anything about the history of America sure I guess we would but it would be boring because we would just hear the teacher talk about stores which I think is kind of boring to me. Books we wouldn’t know how to read or anything and we would all be not that smart. So we wouldn’t be able to make all of this great technology. Plus without books there would be less jobs like a publisher and an author. The economy would be even worse.
