Football. Why? Why do we sprint back and forth night after night? Sprint so hard we throw up. Sprinting so hard your heart beat rings in your head, while your lungs are grasping for air. Late nights, early mornings, Friday night lights, Sunday afternoons, broken bones, torn muscles and deep bruises. We run through it all. Because we live off our adrenaline, because the game frees your spirit, because the party in the locker room is second to none, because you're invincible once you step on the field, because one tackle, one throw, one catch, one big gain one touchdown can make you smile all night, picking the pass, 1st down 2nd down 3rd down 4th down touchdown, the crash of two helmets hitting so hard you get head ach just hearing it, the feel of the ball, and your cleats digging into the turf is a rhythm to live by, because its possible to run fast enough to leave all your worries behind. Sweat is the cologne of our accomplishment. Why? Why would someone push themselves so hard the uneducated pussies always ask? Tier one, Tier two, Tier three, tier four, Consolation, Atom, Peewee, Bantam, Midget, High School, NCAA, NFL ... It's never been for the fucking money, it's not for the girls, and it's not for the fame...The Boys' play because we FUCKING LOVE IT..
