a cultural tradition from my country that I love

A Thanksgiving –

A family, food, football, tradition. My wife was sick and told me I would have to do the turkey. After each step I would return to the bedroom for instructions. No problem. She never got a chance to do another turkey. I would have it in the oven before she got out of bed. How about turkey for breakfast?

A Football Game –

A team we couldn’t stop. I was left line backer and they scored on their first two possessions. They were on their way to a third one when the coach pulled me out. On the sideline I was able to see what they were doing and told the coach to put me in at left end and I would stop it. He did and they never made another first down. We won the game.

A Football Game –

A team sport. Watch football. Play basketball. Played both. Football is the greatest team sport. I am not a team player. I wish I had played more basketball, a sport for nearly everyone. We need more outside basketball courts.

A Team Sport –

A sport, with eleven positions, football is the only real team sport. With each play 22 players must make a split second decision on what to do. Most can only watch. Very few get to play. Nearly everyone gets to play basketball. All you need is two players, a ball, and a basket.
