Tensions In The Film: Remember The Titans

One of the players took the game so hard that he did not want to come together with the team. Coach Newton said to everyone,” Keep your heads up every one of us are winners in his book.” As I play football today the quote my coach gave me to keep in my head helps me with a lot. When I turned 17 I got the quote tattooed on my chest so if I am doing something and I try to give up it makes me grind harder. I never give up on something I love or like to do. I want to make history in my school and in collage and etc.

This year in football I got a new position, last year I played offensive tackle and defensive tackle. This year I play center defensive end, last year I was awful, I was second string, i’d cry a lot, and I was so scared scared to hit someone. I was a HUGE wimp! I tried my hardest to get better I was still scared to hit someone. This year I was so excited to play new position in football, I would workout and practice everyday to get better I knew it would pay off.

I decided to try the sport after I realized all of my friends were having so much fun playing. Once I strapped on the helmet and shoulder pads, I was hooked. Let me tell you first off, I loved football, but we were not a good team in my youngers days. I started in second grade, and from then all the way up to sophomore year, we only won about one game every year. There is just something about it though, that kept me coming

That was easy, getting through my mom, but the only problem was telling my dad. He was furious when I had told him football was my goal to achieve. Then when I had calmed him down, he finally said “Maybe.” So that following fall, I played. I showed the coaches and all the boys that girls can play football as good as men. At practice, we got our jersey numbers and position.

The two-time Heisman Trophy runner-up had fully enjoyed first-team time these days as his rival for the Cowboys’ starting job, Joseph Randle, is currently out because of an oblique muscle strain. Third-stringer Lance Dunbar is also still recuperating from an ankle sprain that sidelined him since early August. Meanwhile, USA Today’s Jarrett Bell indicated that Dallas’ running back competition will all boil down to “trust, health, and performance” even though head coach Jason Garrett always said that their backfield would be a committee attack involving all three of his RBs. Bell cited that Randle’s off-field problems, such as shoplifting arrests and drug issues, had hindered him from being declared as the Cowboys’ indisputable starter this coming season, saying that the management needs to feel that they can rely on him to always be available during games. Dunbar is more likely set as the second man off the bench in the position, but McFadden’s injury, and now Randle’s, has made it difficult for Garrett to come up with a final

Face with overwhelming desegregation issues and racial tension to include disharmony within his high school football team, Coach Boone (the new black coach who had just replaced the highly successful white coach) gained respect and brought harmony to both the team and ultimately the community with discipline, rigorous training, and a “Command Coach” style in order to break the player’s will to establish a workable environment for teamwork. In the video, Coach Boone woke his team in the middle of the night during a training camp in order for him to lead a long distance run through the woods for conditioning and discipline. The timing caught the team off guard with “shock and awe.” This reduced complacency, reinforced the coach’s philosophy and objectives, provided a situation for the team to adapt as

At Galileo High School, Simpson stood out and showed a ton of promise and was attracting attention from some major college football programs, but very poor grades were looming large between OJ Simpson and college football. Due to his bad grades he went to a community college in hopes of getting his grades up and playing at the D1 level. After his 2 years at City

Jack tries to make conversation and ask about their summers but gets the same result. He ends up just joining in on the laughter of someone else 's jokes. Jack starts to feel depressed on the inside and realizes that everything is going to be just like the other three years. NO! Jack says shaking his head, I still have football tryouts and I’m going to make it on the team this year and everyone for sure will know me then.

When I first started band I was in 7th grade and I had the highest hopes that band would be the best and easiest class I had ever taken but that thought was abandoned the first day of summer band. I had no clue what I was doing and if I didn 't mark my spot right I would get yelled at and get in trouble. When I say that it takes a lot of work we had to basically run across a football field while carrying a 20lb instrument, dodging people, playing a song, all while watching the drum major so you can keep on the beat. But I always used the seniors and other

Coach Sparks assumed the role of Garfield 's high schools head football coach and started football practice at the end of the spring track season. Working for this upcoming school year and dropping to 3A Metro he knew that practice was something that was a necessity for the team. The team has improved endlessly with a 5-1 record in league this school year, with their only loss being against Roosevelt High School. “Coach Sparks has made us believe again” said Garfield senior Shyheem Trowell. “With countless hours of practice and classroom sessions we have came along way since last year.” Being a football joke Garfield has been seen as football triumph, having to fight through the diversity and also the

The whistle blew for half time and our whole team staggered off the soccer field, trailing the other team 1-0 in the Memorial Cup Final .We had ran like madmen in the first half as we struggled to keep up with USAI 's fast-pace possession game strategy. While we got a well deserved water break, our coach discussed what had happened so far in the game and how we could fix our mistakes. “ We have to be more composed around the ball guys! If we get the ball everyone just focus on completing your first pass and things will develop from there.” Moments later the referee blew the whistle once again signaling both teams to get back on the field. As the others and I got on the field, Coach Robbie held me back and reminded me in encouraging words, “ Be a leader out there.” I nodded to show I understood and jogged back on the field, “Let’s go guys!”.
