Helmet to helmet contact
          authors note: my brother got a concussion playing football from helmet to helmet contact that's what made me do this piece                                               
Helmet to helmet contact is deadly. In many tackles or the one you see on espn are helmet to helmet. They are really big hits most of the time the player doesn’t get up but sometimes they get a broken neck.
. In foot ball the name of the game is to tackle. If you get hit in the head it can end you career before it even starts. People like to go for big hit to get more popular and gets recognized on the street and gets asked for autographs  but that’s how people get hurt.
In old retired foot ball players that got hit I the head have  been found to have memory lose. Concussion is the most common head injury in football because of helmet to helmet contact. And this lead to dieses and death.
Almost every football head injury could have been prevented.  If the players would hit them in the crest not the head it wouldn’t have been an injury. I feel that the helmets could offer more protection than they do right now.
I think that helmet to helmet contact should be an immediate 1 game suspension if on purpose. If accident I think it should be the player is given a warning and if it happens again he gets suspended .

My diary
6/03/88
authors note: i loved this poem because i love baseball and sports plus it has a good message that everyone strikes out  eventually.  
Entry number 69
Why did I let the first to strikes go past why is that I was so cocky im Casey I never strike out. Is that why I struck out because I was cocky or is it because im just getting older. I should be a little less cocky and a lot more humble and not let two strikes go
Bye.
            I love baseball but maybe it is time to retire from the game that I love. Im getting older I love the game but it is for the young im not as limber not as fast or strong and with the new style of pitching can’t keep up.
I think im going to retire but if the fans want me to keep playing. I will but if not I will retire. in all this game has opened my eyes but I think I will do what the fans want me to.
PS. pick up milk from the local mart and bread
