Everyone has a favorite sport; my favorite sport is football. I love the game of football, it is a fun game to watch and play. The game is also a physical game to play; I love to be physical. That’s probably why I like it; also, football brings people together. There’s nothing better than getting together on thanksgiving to watch football. I like every sport, but football is my favorite because of the love I have for the game, the physicality of the game, and the way the game brings people together.

My love for the game is one of the biggest reasons I love football. All my life I’ve been playing football, from the backyard to high school. Football was the first sport I ever played. There would be days when there was nothing to do, so my friends and I would just go to the field and play football all day long; in some instances, we would stay out there all night too. Football has also provided me with a lot of memories that I will never forget; one memory is winning our conference my junior year in high school. That is something I will never forget. Also, my family is a football family; my dad played football for Henderson St, and my brother played for the Arkansas Razorbacks, so I really don’t have a choice but to love football. One can say I was bred to play football. In my house, all one will see are trophies and plaques of my family’s accomplishments in football. In my house, football is everything.

My love for the game brings me closer to the game however; they physicality of football also makes it one of my favorite sports. In every other sport, contact is against the rules; being involved in contact will get one a foul or depending on the sport maybe even thrown out of the game.
