To all the seniors that cared about me as an quiet incoming freshman, I owe them everything that I have accomplished this year. So, when they laid out on the field after conceding a PK in double overtime, I felt it my personal mission to help each and every one of them up and tell them about the great game that they had just played. It is because of this interconnected care that we have between each other that we were even in the position that we were…
Grandpa Samuel and Grandma Dorothy were born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Grandpa was born in 1930, and grandma Dorothy Isabela Violet in 1926. Grandpa had no middle name and Grandma had two. I don’t know how that happened. During the days of my grandpa’s youth, World War II was being fought during the years of 1939 to 1945.…

I hadn’t cried that hard since my baseball coach passed away. I ran out of the room as the principle chased me down. I just wanted to go home, he told me “i understand but we have to keep you here so you can speak with a grief counselor”. I understood and reluctantly went back into the room and cried. Cried with my friends that cared about nate just as much as I had.…
You guys showed true sportsmanship.” This coach saw us as his children, and for him we are all grateful. With everyone on the bus, and accounted for, I looked back into the steamy field as the lights turn off one by one. The once beautiful ball field looked like a graveyard, and I was glad to be going home. I love nothing more than to arrive home, and step off the bus to smell the air of home sweet home.…
Specific Purpose: To commemorate the life of Mike Giannola, my dad, by sharing two areas where he made the most impact on my and others lives. Central Idea: My dad, Mike Giannola, is worthy of commemoration because of the impact he had on others and me. Introduction I. I would like you to think about this, what makes a dad a good dad?…
I thought I was going to let my team down my coaches down and families down. The one point in the game when I was crying in the dugout my catcher came up to me and whispered, “Don't get down on yourself, if we do lose we will still always love you and think you are the best. We would not have gotten this far if it wasn't for you. So we just need you to push threw this game with us. We believe in you.”…
Right when he started saying these they sounds very wise. It really just shocked me that he was extremely committed to the team. He didn’t have an important ligament in his body, but still went to coach the game. Unfortunately, we couldn’t pull out the win for my dad, but I can still recall most moments of the game because there was just that feeling in the air that the game was significant. My dad taught to be committed to your team, which is what another generation taught…
All I could do was cry because my daddy wouldn’t see our competition squad compete for a national title. My dad kept encouraging me to do my best and for me to not think too much about his situation. He said more than one time, “Life goes on, no…
Hi, I'm Ranger! I'm looking for a loving home to stick with me through the good and bad. I’m a quiet and friendly dude, in fact I don’t make much noise, and I enjoy being around men, women, and children. I especially love when people take time out of their day to stop and give me some affection. Even though I like to receive affection, I also like when you take me outside, so I can run around and play.…
Growing up, I knew that church was the way to go. My family were very satnified christians. My father is an pastor and my mother is an evangelist. I remember waking up on Sunday mornings to gospel playing throughout the house and my pops pacing back and forth wondering which suit and tie to wear that day. I never knew God for myself at that time.…
“As we head out on that field, you play every minute of the game like it’s your last” We head out on the field with the stands full of screaming fans to cheer us on. Later on at the game, it was now fourth quarter and we were down a single touchdown. There is thirty seconds left on the clock, we’re at the goal line. As we approach the line I see us winning with the crowd sprinting on the field. I reach for the ball “ready, set, hike!”…
I remember all the plays I had made, and I remember how far I have come to make it to the NFL, and how far our team has come to get to the Super Bowl. I know this isn't our time to go home without a Super Bowl win, without a Vince Lombardi trophy. I think back to the losses we have had in the season and how we beat the Ravens and the Colts in the playoffs. I know that we aren't leaving here with a loss on the…
His team had just finished playing and he was waiting around to watch our game. His being there put a lot of pressure on me, after this game the season was over and I needed to show off how much better I had become so maybe I could get back on his team. “It’s game time!” one of my coaches yelled as we are walking to the field.…
David, What we have is beyond anything our minds could ever begin to understand or anyone else either. Sometimes it annoys me when people deduce what we have to fit their narrow viewpoint. We didn't need sex to formulate our bond. If that were the case, everyone would have it and yet, no one does. Your poems are incredibly angelic to me.…
