it is something that stirs excitement among fans of almost any sport‚ it is what teams play for all season‚ and it is perhaps the most exciting time of any sport season. But this exicitement is something that has always been missing in Division I football‚ and it is something that makes the game unfair for many teams. At the beginning of the season all teams join the hunt for the coveted national championship‚ they face many roadblocks‚ some of which have nothing to do with their opponents. Did you

At the Game Bright lights illumine the night sky. The distant roar of cheers and applause hits my ears—it is a Sunday night football game at the Chiefs.

When I arrived at the football game we were all confused as to where to go.

This to me is ridiculous because it isn’t their choice whether or not a boy is allowed to play football
