Coach Mullins: The Whole Football Team
As the football team waits in the locker room waiting to walk down the steps, the whole football team can hear the crowd cheering and we can all hear the music playing, from outside. As Coach Mullins is getting us ready to play, we all think about why we play the game and what it means to be apart of this team. Everyone has different thoughts and different reasons, but we all play the game for one reason, and one reason only, that is to win a state championship. When the coach has finished with his speech, we all stand, walk to the middle of the room, lock hands, and say the Lord's Prayer. It's a Friday Night. We all stand up and walk to the door that leads to the steps, and the crowds have gotten louder because our fans know it's time for us to walk out. We are all ready to walk down the steps and begin the game. Finally, Coach Mullins gives us the call to open the doors. Everyone begins to get butterflies in their stomachs. As the first door is opened, the opposite team is already ahead of our team waiting on us to walk out. We all begin to walk down the stairs, as we all walk down the stairs, we can see our friends and families all cheering for us. They are cheering for us because, they know we are going to play our hearts out and going to do …show more content…
The whole team crowds in the helmet as Coach Mullins begins his speech for us. We can all hear the loud music, our fans, and we can also hear the victory whistle, for when we score a touchdown. We all begin to get more and more ready to run out of the helmet, when the smoke begins to roll out of the front of the helmet. We all know it is almost time to start the game. We have all been waiting for this moment all year, all the blood, sweat, and tears that we have all gave to just be in this moment all comes to mind. All the weights and running as prepared us for this very

    That doesn’t go as plan and he gets sacked in the backfield. GC fans are terrified because we just lost a few yards, but it isn’t over just yet. The team huddles up and the quarterback calls another play. Its looks like we’re going to run the same play that gave us a gain of fifteen. The center hikes the ball and just like before, he gives it to the running back. Everyone in the stands trying to look past all the players on the field to see where the ball is going. Suddenly, we see a black jersey come out of a pile of other jersey. As fast as lighting Greene County is running down the field aiming for a touchdown. The announcer once again “he’s at the thirty, the twenty, the ten, touchdown!” That seals the deal with only a minute left until halftime. Washington Wilkes fans sits with disgust all over their faces. Our rivalry that thought were going to blow us out, now has to go into half-time with a tied game. The fans happy as ever, can now go into the third quarter with all hopes that we can win the game. The band now playing the Greene County Tigers theme song, “Eye of the Tiger”, in good…

    In the distance, a roar of the opposing crowd commenced as the band began to shout their fight song. The white jerseys swarmed together to celebrate, while faint shadows walked up the home stands and to their cars in disappointment. The pit in my stomach only got bigger as I thought about all that I had given this game whether it was the grueling track workouts every summer, the demanding practices, or the strenuous nine months of rehab I went through just to strap up my helmet again. It was at this moment - as the salty taste of my sweat and tears dripped into my mouth - that I knew how much I loved this game and how much I would miss everything about…

    It was a chilly Thursday night at Arrowhead Stadium and the Kansas City Chiefs were playing the San Diego Chargers. The air smelled of hot dogs and sweat. My grandpa and I were sitting nine rows back on the 50 yard line, Chiefs’ side. There were punters, kickers, running backs, and wide receivers of both teams warming up on the field, and with kickoff nearing, my grandpa and I started getting anxious.With me being younger, I had just gotten done contemplating on whether or not to go to the game, or to go trick-or-treating. Although I missed out on Halloween, I will be forever thankful that I was able to attend the most exciting game I have ever been to.…

    The coach huddles us together and fills us with courage and excitement with his words. Now five us us move to the middle of the field for the coin toss. The coin flies into the air, shimmering in the lights, and seems to hover forever, then falls back into the referees palm. The ball is ours! The kick off return forms on the field. The opposing team kicks the ball, and like a magnet, the ball plummets into my teammates hand. He reaches the fifty yard line with the help of the huge V that is formed by the line men.

    Sweat drizzles down my skin as it exits my pores trying to cool my heated body. The blood rushes through my veins pumping blood with the consistent pounding of my heart. Every breath, every second, every action, every thought; I am standing where everything counts. Artificial turf and grass crumpled beneath my torn black shoes and the thick silence only cut by the timed chants from afar. This is the last moment I will stand here for this reason. This is the last moment I will stand here with my family. This is the last moment of my marching band career. Many will say that this was a special group of kids, others will say that this year was a show that was made to make it. I, on the other hand, will say that this was because of seven years of dedication.…

    Ever since I was the Defensive Captain of the football team every little thing I did was noticed. With the coaches working in our school, we were constantly supervised and had certain privileges other students didn’t. Before every big game I wanted to relax and focus on the game ahead, but the entire school wanted to talk to you and ask questions about what you’re going to do. In a way I enjoyed this, the pressure to step up to the plate made me feel like I had a purpose for the school. I believed in myself and knew I was capable of meeting their expectations. Their satisfaction didn’t satisfy me in anyway but seeing my hard work and dedication pay off did. I cherished the moments when the announcer would scream my number on the field after a big play. These moments were immaculate in my eyes especially in front of the big crowds. One of the tragic incidents of my…

    Then, we went onto the basketball court to stretch. As the students filed in one by one, we got into formation and ran over the cheers and the dance. My class, which was the seventh grade, made sure to sit on the front row to cheer Macy and I on. My squad started to get into formation, then I knew it was about to get real. We started out with the cheer “We’re Here’, then went into “It’s Great (Gracie’s Cheer).” Then we started chanting “DJH All the Way” which meant for us to get into our dance formation. I was inexplicably nervous, but I made sure not to let that show. We made it through the dance with ease, then it was time to introduce the boys. Mrs. Quinn told us that every time that they called a football boys name out, two of us had to go out and do a jump or tumbling pass.…
