How Football Explains America (pg.15-61)

Summary: "America does not have Greek Mythology..So America made up its own" (Paolantonio).  The sport of America is Football, it is not played anywhere else in the country and Football helps define America.  The most well known and usually the most loved position of football is the quarterback, its like a journey when the quarterback drives the team down the field and through the season.  "How and why the quarterback position was created and evolved helps explain how football explains America" (Paolantonio 17).  Your emotions control what you do in the game of football and that is what's so attractive about the game.  "Football is a game of the heart " (Schottenheimer 52).  How could you not love it.  

Quote: "The game of football brings them emotions out " (Snoop Dogg 54).

Reaction: When I read this it made me want to play football. I have always loved the sport because of the fact that it brings your emotions out.  It is a feeling words cannot explain, and that is why its so great.  Im going to play football this year if I can get my grades together =].
