I miss Football

[wolfeskins]

i have one. it was before highschool, my brother, who is 4 yeas older than i am, would always take part in the weekly football game between our neiborhood and a neiborhood down the street. i was 13 years old and my bro would never let me play because all the players were much older and much, much bigger. well one day he finally gave in and i played. durring that game i made two touchdowns as a receiver and intercepted a pass on defense but the most impressive thing i did that day was make an open fieldtackle on the other teams running back. what made that tackle so great was the rb was about 18 or 19 years old , weighed prolly 190 lbs and i was 13 and about 120. he didn't try to "juke" or anything, he wanted to run me over, i took him head on , lowered my shoulders , wrapped my arms around his hips and brought his big ass to the ground. it hurt like hell, my body was in pain for days but from that day forward i was invited to play, soon after, there were no more invitations, i was just expected to play, i was " part of the team ".
