When football was invented in 1879 and the rules where designed by Walter Camp people had no idea that it would be one of the biggest sports we have now. There are fans all around the world that love to watch, yell, and scream at there TVS. People pay hundreds of dollars to go to a game just to be there in person to watch these people play. I really wonder if some footballs fans will ever really under stand what they are doing when betting on a game, losing money and fighting with friends over this GAME we call football. From when the game was first created by Walter he had no idea it would ever turn into what it is now. Walter got this vision of football from William Ebb Ellis who was a student at the rugby school in England.
In 1823 William Ebb Ellis was noted for picking up the ball during the soccer game and running with it, thereby breaking and changing the rules. In 1876, at the Massasoit convention, the first attempts at writing down the rules of American football were made. The first NFL league was created in 1920. I wish people would realize that it's not all about this fighting that we do over football. The game is about sportsman ship, pride strategy and having a good time. . I have gone to only one football game and wow it was amazing.
When you enter into a stadium there is like this whole new feeling that surrounds you and makes you just feel like yelling for your favorite team. On my way into the stadium I saw all these people that had traveled from so far away to come support there team. I really never thought of myself of a big football fan until my chest filled up with proud as I stood in the stands and stood up to do the national anthem and realized we where all there for one reason to cheer for the guys who bring proud to each and everyone one of our cities that we are from. I looked around and saw everyone in the team gear proudly supporting there team in there colors. I went to the game with my husband and he was there to walk me through and show me everything and he pointed out two guys there fighting and arguing over there team and threatening each other and I really didn't believe him until I stood up and looked over and these guys where actually fighting like this in front of there little children's eyes. How could you act like two children fighting and suppose to be adults and making no examples for your children. I was shocked and that's what I mean by the bad things about football people don't enjoy it for what it use to be its all about who is right, and who is stronger .My son has always wanted to play foot ball but do I really want him to grow up thinking its okay to act like this. Can't we have fun and play the game and support each other.
