This main focus of this article was to inform the readers about the danger of playing football. The leading injury in football is an concussion. The article focused on concussion to show how they can lead to other mental disorders. So now the NFl is cracking down on how players hit each other. This has gotten attention from former players and also fans. They are complaining that the new rules are changing the culture of football. It also states that the NFL is trying to keep the players safe from themselves because players will try to come back in the game and play injured.


Question: Will you risk your life doing something you love?

Missed Shots

"I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game winning shots and missed I've failed over and over again in my life, and that is why I succeed."


To me this quote means that you can't give up on what you love. Michael Jordan loves the game of basketball the time and effort he put in the game was shown throughout his career. So when a person mess up in life they shouldn't give up. A person should always have enough confidence to continue to do what they love even through the mess up that they might encounter.

"LIFE"

"LIFE"

Life is 10% of what happens to you, and 90% of how you react to it.

To me this quote is stating that the way people react to things that goes on in their life is what make them different from others. That 90% is a big percentage because the stuff that happens to people make them react in a different way. So when obstacles are in front of people this shows the fight in that is ahead of that person and the way they react to that problem determines the character of that individual.

New Year's Resolution

One main goal I will reach in the year 2014 will be graduating in the month of May.

1. I will work harder in class and study notes longer to make sure I make good grades.
2. Another step I will take to reach my goal will be taking school more serious and paying better attention in class.
