History of Football

As I sat in the stadium, the arena was completely silent. It was so quiet you could hear an echo of a pen dropping on the floor from 30 feet away. As soon as you hear the quarter back say hut, hut, everyone goes into action and literally it was like the wave when everyone leaned forward slightly one section at a time. This game was so intense. The quarterback steps back a couple of steps when he throws the ball to the wide open wide receiver. He catches it; he’s going, going, going and only 10 yards away from the end zone and…….  The Football Game I’ll Never Forget, by Chris McDonell, helps people understand how great football is by communicating facts about the most fascinating games in history. Readers will be entertained by the way the author describes the skills players have which are pro football players. If only I had skills like they did back in the day.
                   
Everyone should read his book because it’s very entertaining and it also has all of the best games ever in old school history. This book is so interesting because in some parts of the book the author makes me feel like I’m right there in the stadium. The makes me feel like I’m right there because he uses details on how the game is going like the author uses comments that players say about how they felt when they were in that position. If you read this book you will most likely feel the same way I feel.  

You would also want to read this book because if you study it or play the sport, then it might become interesting. Then you’re going to want to know more because in a way you’re involved in football just because you know something about it. There are a lot of people that watch and play football, so then if you know someone who likes football too, then you both can talk about how astonishing football is. One of my all time favorite line backers is Ray Nitschke, who played for one of my favorite teams, the Green Bay Packers. The NFL’s all time linebacker in 1969 played 15 seasons from 1958-1972. He also had 25 career interceptions, which is amazing, isn’t it?

In the book the Football Game I’ll Never Forget the author, Chris Mcdonell, helps people understand how great football is by informing us facts about the most amazing games ever in NFL history. Football is the greatest sport ever invented.
