Description

Football: Clean football is a man's game. It is a game which runs parallel to the game of life: a game which calls for the very best in order to obtain the best results. A single, evenly matched football game may be compared with the course of a whole lifetime. Two teams line up against each other and battle for four long periods in order to prove which group is superior. The men who never lose courage, no matter how hard they fall, are the real players, and these are the ones who bring victory to their team in every instance. The others who lose their grit just because the opposite side makes a gain are the quitters and you will find them constantly carrying the burdens of defeat. Sometimes inevitable defeat faces a football team when they meet an opponent on the gridiron, but, if they do their utmost, and lose, they can still hold their heads high, for they know they have given their very best.
