3 on 5 what a way to to introduced into the world of sports, just reading that article I will remember that event for a life time. The Poem explains so much in such simple short amount of a Friday night high school football game with the parents watching.
These memories are embedded in their minds for a lifetime, just as the first sporting event is in mine. The nostalgia is so vital to these pieces recalling the detail of the basketball game to such detail even though it was so long ago.
I cant believe that the basketball story is not even heard of, It is understandable with the place and time of the event and who was playing but after what happen and winning the next game too I fell like they should of got more credit then they did.
Sports can be brought to whole different limits, you could look at that article as even though it looked impossible from the start and when it was unfathomable to think when they lost there best player and then another. Life goes the same way it looks impossible and it cant even be done not a chance but you have the spirit and the heart to make it happen and it will. Its called an upset for a reason right?
I agree with your blog. I believe anything is possible no matter how hard the situations might be. Both the poem and the essay reflect life changing situations just in different settings. They also are both memorable small activities that happen a long time ago that will effect the narrotors life forever. It is amazing to remember something so long a go and to say you witness something that others havent had the chance to.
