American Culture
American Football
One day ago, I had learned more about
American football when I was practicing it with my friends in school. It was
fun and a different experience, which led me to change my mind about some kinds
of sports in general.
I often feel that I am against the idea
of some sports for many reasons such as wasting time; money, energy as well as hurting
the body in case of accident. Also sometimes it creates bad competition between
different groups.
After this experience, I realized that I
had enjoyed playing it for a reasonable time without wasting money, losing
friends, or getting hurt.
Dalal, I'm glad to know that you enjoyed your experience with American football through the activities in Culture Class. You are right, though, that football (and some other sports) have a dark side. People do receive serious injuries while playing football and competition can be over-emphasized. But sports can also be fun, as you experienced! - Ms. Greenstone
ReplyDeleteIt was also a great experience for me. I could learn more about American football and classmates.
