College football players work very hard‚ spend a good amount of time practicing‚ and don’t make a single cent from any of it therefore they should get paid.

I’ve always a very shy very quiet person to start out and I often found it very hard to speak up when with other people especially when it comes to leading them. Though‚ with my position as a lacrosse goalie I was always under pressure from coaches to speak out more. As a goalie‚ it was my responsibility to keep up communications‚ lead my fellow defenders and location of the ball and when to crash in for a shot. It always seemed like a task I would never be able to fully grasp. So‚ when I made junior

of my first varsity football game as a sophomore‚ not quite expecting what happened next. “We need another linebacker!” I heard this knowing I was the next man up‚ and was forced into a situation I wasn’t quite ready for. I started the rest of the season as our middle linebacker‚ and I got destroyed. Slow‚ undersized‚ and unprepared‚ I was out of my league. But I was determined not to let my sub-par sophomore year affect the rest of my high-school career as a football player. I spent the offseason

In my book‚ we follow the life of a high school football player. His name is Miles the plays linebacker. He has somewhat of a hard life. His father is always on him to do his best in football because the wants him to go farther in life than he did. His mother is a caring and loving lady that helps him no matter what.

Now we all know that football is a great sport‚ bringing forth legends like Eric Cantona‚ George Best and the heroic Sir Bobby Charlton‚ but what about the downsides to this heroic game: exorbitant wages‚ inept role rodels and the never ending peer group pressure of football kit changes every year.
