If you have played/heard/watched american footbal you should understand the following paragraph:
So I'm in football practice, 2nd string Defensive End and Left Guard as well, And the 1st string DE left to go on a vacation, so i'm currently "starting"
So, i play in practice for the next couple of days, and i do pretty good in the coaches eyes. But some how, some way, today i got booted off the DE spot suddenly, because i made one mistake on one stinkin play. and the RunningBack only got like one or two yards.
And the coaches put in a Linebacker to play in my spot, and if all goes well, he'll be playing this saturday in the scrimmage.
This has happened to me like, 3 time already.
I have quite literally worked my *** off all summer, lifting wieghts, getting up at 7 in the morning to work out 2 hours every day AT LEAST, and guess what, I was thrown away like a bag of **** because i made one mistake, one that any one else would have made.
Its utterly ridiculous how much I've worked this summer, how much of my time was taken away practicing, Weight lifting, running, and giving my time away to stand on the side lines during a game i have worked so hard to play.
not only all of this, but the guys "competing" in the DE position, didn't do **** this summer.
But when i went to practice today, the kid that was the "starting DE" showed back up, and the coaches acted like they were in love with him, and at this point, no matter how hard i work, i'm going to get thrown to the side lines because they like the other guy better.
But, the only reason why i'm even getting to play this scrimmage is because ifyou miss mroe than 2 days of practice, you can't play in the next upcoming game.
But i'm planning to get ripped(buff) over the next summer, doing the same stuff i did this summer, working out, lifting wieghts, and not being totally lazy, and hopefully, the coaches will finally relize that there isn't just 11 guys on a football team.
