Descriptive Side of You
The Leather Sphere It had been traveling as if it was on a set course passing by like an out-of-state family member visiting. The body weirdly was shaped in an oval type of look, its skin coat brown like wet dirt freshly mixed with a white rigid lace exerting down the spine with gap sizes like SpongeBob’s teeth that fingers are placed in for grip. It is stitched in to help hold and accurately place the ball. The shape looked like the head of Hey Arnold from Cartoon Network. The feel of the brown leather oval shape instrument hones like a missile chasing its target. The force could be heard coming at the rip of a whip. If you were to hear the cut of the air, it was literally too late.

Best NFL Running Backs of All Time
Running back has become a devalued position in the modern NFL game. It's a passing league now and quarterbacks are all the rage. They are the ones who receive the most praise and have offenses designed around them as the centerpiece. However, having a game-changing running back can make all the difference and may even be more valuable than a quarterback. Only a select few NFL running backs would fall under that category but all who do were beasts and changed the sport of football. Narrowing it down was rough, but someone had to do it. So these are the runners that would even give the best defenses in NFL history broken ankles and will be remembered forever.

Brady Retirement?
Just a Girl, on the Couch, in Her Football Jersey: Monday, Brady did not attend the Optional training for the team. He was in Qatar with his family, visiting our troops, and working his Best Buddies Charity. It was optional training, and though it is rare for Brady to miss these OTAs, sometimes life does intercede.

Why I Love the CFL
I love the CFL, or the Canadian Football League, for those of you who don't know. I am, of course, Canadian and that's why I got into it, but I've tried many times and have never fully been able to get into the NFL. It's just not for me. I love football, though, and think that the CFL sometimes gets made fun of without having someone to stick up for it. So, here are some reasons why I love the CFL and why I think you should give it a try.

Top 5 Favorite Seattle Seahawks Games
During Week 8 of the NFL, the Seahawks of Seattle were in a professional football contest versus the Texans of Houston in what was, still is, and very well may be, the best NFL game all season. I became a prisoner of the moment for many reasons. “Is Deshaun Watson the best rookie QB we’ve seen?” “Is Russell Wilson the NFL’s leading candidate for MVP after that performance?” “Should Pete Carroll and Darrell Bevell let the reins loose on the offense?” “Is Jadakiss as hard as it gets?” I didn’t ask that last question, only because it’s so blatantly obvious that yes, Jadakiss is as hard as it gets.

The Best NFL Defenses in History
You know the old saying, "Defense wins championships?" Well, it's true. The offense may be more fun to watch, trick plays and touchdowns are the bees knees, but a great defense is what makes all the difference. Just look at the 2018 Super Bowl as proof. The Super Bowl where both defenses decided to check off "Not Attending" on their invites, the Philadelphia Eagles were able to win due to a key defensive play at an opportune time. There was only one spectacular defensive play all game, and that ended up being the deciding factor.

Greatest Quarterbacks of All Time. Top Story - April 2018.
The NFL is full of legends, including Vince Lombardi, Jerry Rice, and Jim Brown. But at the center of every great team is a legendary quarterback. Each quarterback has their own set of skills, whether it's accuracy, strength, or mobility. But it's also how they lead and how they win games when it may seem impossible. Some quarterbacks will be remembered for their personality and play-ability. And some will be remembered as the greatest quarterbacks of all time.

2018 NFL Mock Draft: 1.0
The NFL Draft is just under a month away and that means that Mock Draft season is in full swing and should only ramp up further in the coming weeks. Mock drafts are all constructed differently across the NFL media world. Some base theirs off what media pundits are hearing, other on what a team should do based on their own big board.

Make Football Fun Again
Make football fun again. Last January, WWE present and CEO Vince McMahon held a press conference with ESPN announcing the return of the XFL in 2020. He pledged to give football fans “professional football the way we imagined it."

For this article, I will explain why I think the XFL will “make football fun again,” and provide some suggestions for what I think will make it successful.

Top Defenses in College Football History
People say that defense wins championships. And that extends to college football. Some of these players would go on to become stars in the NFL or busts. This only shows the value of what a great team can do. Even coaches like Nick Saban who have coached dominating college football teams couldn't find the same success in the NFL. Nevertheless, they were legends at their respective schools and institutions. Here's the top defenses in college football history.
