i dont play sports because i have to. i dont play em for the extra long practices. or the weekends lost thru away games. its the moments in sports that cant be described. its the skills that cant be taught. having the underdog come out on top. playing with pure passion. knowing that no matter what will happen. your gonna step in front every single play. getting a break away down the field. juking out defenders in the center circle. getting knocked down 5 times and gettting up 6. realizing your biggest fans werent ever boyfriends or best friends, but your family. knowing their are girls dieing to be out on the field. representing not only your last name, but your entire school. having all the momentum on your side. getting that half second faster to the ball. potential.realizing every referee is an idiot. having a perfect first touch. jocking your number like its gonna get you somewhere.knowing every player is able to be just as good as the player next to them. first love. making too many pump up mixes to hold on your ipod. mind over matter.
somewhere along the road you realize that its not just a sport or some way to stay in shape. its your life. and you wouldnt be the person you are today without it. youve been molded into who you hold up on your two feet today and for the rest of your life.
