& Persistent Passes

What started as a mashup of rugby and soccer in the late 1800s has become so much more! That’s right, it’s (American) football season again, which means it’s time for some thrilling touchdowns, tackles and maybe even some Hail Marys.
Football is so much more than just a game. It's the buzz in the air when fall rolls around, the sound of fans cheering like their voices are the 12th player on the field. From those die-hard tailgating parties to the folks dressed head-to-toe in their team colors, the spirit is electric. The game itself is a mix of brains and brawn, where epic strategies collide with jaw-dropping athleticism.
And it's not just about the touchdowns or the crazy tackles. It's about teamwork, fighting through tough spots, and never giving up, teaching us about hard work and the pursuit of something bigger. So here's to the start of another NFL season, where the joy of football reminds us that we're all part of one big, cheering team.
