I Wish I Could Be A Football Player

I absolutely love sports. Since a young age, my parents had me on some sort of team every season just to get my energy out. This led me always being a cooperative person. Everything is a type of contest to me. I have always played soccer. I was in martial arts as well. To really just start listing, I also: played baseball, flag football, diving. I have always been active.

We are currently 3 days out from the start of the 2016-2017 NFL season. Since about the 5th grade, I have been a Patriots fan and every single football season makes me wish more and more that I had joined my high school football team. I love the game and the fan culture. Football makes sense to me and I wish I could be a part it as a player. I would love playing in college. The idea of going to a school on a sports scholarship is a dream and to play football, the biggest college sport, would be even better. You're practically a celebrity at school and you get to travel with the team during season.

I got into fantasy football about 2 years ago and it becomes an obsession of mine during football season. It really makes the game so much more interesting and I already fine it interesting as it is.
It also allows me to compete against friends in a sport I was not allowed to be a part of. My mom was always to scared to let me play because of the brain injuries that players receive. I mean, I still got a concussion from playing soccer.

I honestly wouldn't mind going to a Midwest football school Just for the football culture. I may join my schools rugby team to bulk up and tryout at another college. Its an idea.
