It’s a beautiful day here in Arizona on Super Bowl day. For the fifty-first Super Bowl the Denver Broncos will go face to face against the Indianapolis Colts, and me Michael Tepper reporting for this game. Just an hour ‘til kickoff and down on the field warming up is the star quarterback Andrew Luck, against soon to be hall of fame quarterback, Peyton Manning who was released by Indianapolis just five years ago. Although it was just five months ago today the great Kansas City Royals beat the New York Mets in game six of the World Series, there were almost a million Kansas City Royals fans attended the parade celebrating the great win.
Undoubtedly, football is a difficult, treacherous sport but currently no measures are being taken to improve players’ safety. Small things could make a big difference in the NFL. People are getting hurt before our very eyes, and we don’t do a thing about it, we should be appalled our lack of action and let it motivate us to make improvements and needed
Let me tell you about a guy named Aaron Rodgers. He can throw a football so fast that it started a fire in the field. He also can run 200 miles per hour with the football and plough 15 people over at a time. One time in a game he threw a football so hard that it blew everyone out of the stadium. He can run the whole football field in less than 2 seconds. When he hurdles over a guy he can jump 100 feet in the air. When he scrambles the player on the other team tries to tackle him at the 50-yard line when Aaron Rodgers is already in the end zone.
The Bills were no longer the team of the AFC. They fell to 7th in points and their defense wasn’t very good.(Schoenfield) They still maintained a 12-4 record and made it to the Super Bowl once again. When they found out who their opponent shocked them. Dallas. Their foe from the year before. It was a
The Steelers would come 5th or 6th every year in the east division, only being 2 divisions in the NFL, and also being the AFL for some reason two seperate things back then with 2 seperate superbowls (pro football reference). The first time the Steelers were the playoffs was on January 6 1963, they lost to the detroit lions 17-10 and have not made another apperence until 1972, thats 9 years. In the 1960s the Pittsburgh Steelers were not the six time superbowl champions we know today. Side note we would be seven time superbowl champions if it was not for the Patriots. Also the Steelers would always have a recrod of 5-6 or 4-7 or even 6-5 not the amazing considering how great they are now.
Rewind to the NFL Wild Card Round earlier this year. The date was January 9th; The Pittsburgh Steelers were facing off against the Cincinnati Bengals in an intense conference matchup for the first playoff round. This game was special since both teams are in the AFC North conference, so both teams were playing with a chip on their shoulder. The game was a hard-fought battle that came right down to the end. On the last gasp drive made by the Steelers to try and win the game something extraordinary happened. Big Ben Roethlisberger drops back, throws the ball over the middle to star wide receiver Antonio Brown and goes right through his hands. As Antonio is coming down from his leap in the air Vontaze Burfict comes in late and makes head to head
The (2-4) Dallas Cowboys will host the (3-4) Seattle Seattle Seahawks on Sunday afternoon 3:25 CT. Somehow some way the Cowboys need to find a way to win couple games until Tony Romo returns on Nov 22nd against the Dolphins. It all starts with Sunday, this team is currently on a four game losing streak for the first time since 2010. By no means is this team pancaking, but the urgency to win is at an all-time high right now. Last week's game against the Giants even with the loss this team showed some positive signs, the defensive played well, the offensive line looked like the offensive line from 2014, running game was finally good, and despite the turnovers the passing game seemed a little better with Matt Cassel at quarterback. I think with another week with the receivers Matt will learn more about each wide-receiver, which in return will help turn those turnovers into a minimum, or none at all on Sunday. Cassel also could be getting a great player back that
For the first time since 1990, the New York Giants are the reigning Super Bowl champions. Their thrilling victory over the 18-0 New England Patriots is already being called one of the greatest football games every played. Even casual football fans found themselves following the ups and downs of Big Blue last season. It all started when bookie Tim Mara bought the New York Giants in 1925 for a whopping $500 and then almost went bankrupt when they lost their first three games. Six years later, Mara passed team ownership to his sons Jack and Wellington. Wellington, who was 14 at the time, co-owned the team until he passed away in 2005.
My teammates and I finally reached the Atlanta stadium, the head coach told us all the formations,plays,strategies,and who will be starting. When I heard "Eric Marshall will be one of the primary and starting receivers," I almost jumped in joy, because it had been a dream to play in the super bowl. As we walked into the stadium to practice, I could hear fans screaming, many of which were cheering for us. I felt as if we could not lose or we would let many, many people down. While Marcus and I were doing some practice plays, I felt great When our rivals, the Patriots came in, they looked as if they have been training for this moment for their lives. They did many drills and each of them either looked perfect or the closest to perfect.
When the American Football League (AFL) was created in 1959, the Oakland Raiders were not part of the original teams. It was not until the team from Minneapolis went to the NFL did the AFL create a team in Oakland. The team became official in January 1960 (Oakland Raiders Team History, para.1). When the team first started they could not find a steady home field to play on. They were always bouncing between stadiums all across the bay area in San Francisco. For the first three years the Oakland Raiders put in a mediocre record of 9-33-0 (Oakland Raiders Team History, para.1).
“Football is like life it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority.” - Vince Lombardi. With Football there are many positions offensively and defensively which are best to be known for playing or watching and especially coaching. Football started out as the AFL and then merged with the NFL which formed the Super Bowl. But let 's not forget the small amount of women in powder puff football. With football being so famous more and more rules are developed. But the main part that makes football so interesting is its history without it, you would have never know how the super bowl came to be and the wonderful coaches that made the game competitive and filled with life long experiences.
If you are a sports fan, one of your biggest questions as you move to South Miami, FL is how far you will have to travel to see a great sporting event. Although there are a variety of sports teams who play in South Miami and the surrounding area, here are some of the more popular teams.
The sport I chose to observe was college football. I decided to chose this sport because football is a sport my family enjoys to watch. Also I enjoy watching football more than any other sport because there is so much that could happen, in football many unexpecting plays could happen, and each game is different than the last one. The game I chose to watch was a college football game between the University of Notre Dame and the University of Miami that took place at the University of Miami on Saturday, November 11, 2017. The game started with Miami kicking the ball to Notre Dame. The first touchdown was 2nd down and goal it was Miami’s ball and player 8 on Miami’s team caught the ball in the endzone. Then Miami made the extra point kick making the score Miami 7-0. In the first quarter 3rd down and 6
Tim Tebow was more than just an athlete. He was Christian, and showed it on the field. He led Florida to two national championships, won the Heisman, and was chosen first round pick for the broncos and helped them get their first playoff win since 2005. Through being traded to the jets, becoming third-string for the eagles, and now playing minor league baseball, he has remained one man. A hero.
I was in Flowood, Alabama in late June for my baseball State Championship game. I was with my friend on the baseball team, my mom and dad, my brothers, sister, and grandparents. It was like a 4 hour road trip. During the road trip we ate at chick-fil-a. Also, when we got to the hotel, we got situated and then went swimming and ate supper.
