So you all know how football works. A guy gets the ball, another big guy tackles him and then an even bigger guy jumps on top. And like all things that involves 400 pound sandwiches, people get hurt. From twisting an ankle to breaking a hip (and everyone it's all down hill from there) the football gods have seen it all. But recently the mac daddy of all injures has been the Concussion. Yes, I will capitalize Concussion b/c it demands respect and I know I'm not messing with something that makes bruises on my brain. Anyway, Concussions have always been a part of football but some new studies have been done by NFL concerning Concussions and their effects on the brain. They found that they can cause dementia, Alzheimer's, permanent brain damage along with a whole bunch of other crippling fun stuff. So to stop athletes from becoming mentally-disabled confused old men the league has made some new rules to protect them along with prolonging the recovery process before they can come back from a Concussion.
Also, as I'm probably sure you've already heard, I did lose my fantasy football game. So there goes my hopes of being 3-0, THANKS JOON LEE. I lost by 2 points b/c my kicker got blocked by Julius Peppers, defensive end for the Chicago Bears, like WHAT? When does that even happen. So yeah, Joon and Julius I hate both of you. >:( angry face.

Are you Faulk-ing kidding me?
WHATTA BUMMERRRR! Yezzir, 'tis true Mr. Clutch, Kevin Faulk has suffered an ACL injury in Sunday's game. Although, it hasn't been verified by the Patriots staff it is likely that his bum knee will take this 33 year old running back out of service for the rest of the season. This is muy bad because he was the go to guy. Need a first down? Yo kevin, get in dis game! With the Pats run game the way it is already (poopy is the only word I can describe it as) this is a big blow to the the team. The other guys are going to need to step it up in order for the Patriots to keep on rolling. Now to stray away from season ending injuries and torn up leg tendons, I have a brief announcement. Although, the JV football team suffered a tough loss yesterday there was one bright spot when Myles LaFrance got his first career touchdown followed by an extra point. So, needless to say he is a complete beast and be steady reppin' Brookline Football. Thank Ya'll for reading.

Football
Ok, so I know that my topic is pretty lame-o but I found it difficult to think of one so I decided to just go with something that I enjoy, which is sports. To narrow the topic down from just writing about the sport of football in general I am going to talk about some of this weeks games, including the wonderful Brookline v. Braintree game that took place on Sunday. To start it off, the Pats played the Jets at 4 yesterday and to quote the great Tom Brady 'We just sucked.' It started off pretty good with Randy Moss' absolutely sexy catch to go ahead before the half, 14-10. Then came the second half where the Patriots seemed to completely shutdown and and did not score for the rest of the game while Mark Sanchez, who usually has the arm of a 12 year-old girl, went big with a total of 3 touchdown passes. I mean what the eff, even with Darrelle Revis out with a hamstring injury we still couldn't get any thing done. Anyway, there's nothing they can do about it now and they have to get ready for the Buffalo Bills next week. Now, on a happier note I'm gonna talk about the BHS game...wait nope. So it may not have been a blow out win, or even a close game but I'm gonna talk about it anyway, so ha. At Parson's field at North Eastern on Sunday, we hosted the Braintree in what promised to be a close matchup. But avast, even though we scored first and were tied at the half, Braintree slowly crept ahead until it was 27-7. Soooooo, we may be 0-2 but that best be changin' soon so make sure to go to the games and support your team! :) but seriously, do it. For real. Or else Rambo will eat your first born child. Thank you for your time.
