Do you like or love to play sports? If you do, how about soccer? Well, I know I love soccer. I love soccer because I really like to run, I love most of all sports, I’m good at it, but most of all… it’s soccer. Quickly! Run around in circles, your life depends on it! Soccer.

Yeah, it’s just like McDonald's. I’m loving it! As you’re reading this, you might be wondering, run around…

Through this work, I intend to argue that this prevailing economic order can be viewed through the lens of the…
6, I was serving hot dogs and canned drinks to the hungry players in the canteen, and updating the scoreboard for each new goal. Since age 6, I was roped into endless games of jack in the pack and kick to kick with my brothers. At age 6, the thought of playing football never crossed my mind, not ever. It was not until 6 years later my local club introduced an U’15s girls football team. I was 12 at the time, and 4 years later I was still playing and saw the growth and recognition of the game – 3…
