Marshawn Lynch: My Personal Role Model
Marshawn Lynch Marshawn Lynch is an expert of my choice. I mean come on look at him he is the best running back in league to me. He plays for the Seattle Seahawks and is the number twenty four. Out of all the players in the league and on his team I picked him. He is outstanding and I feel when I watch him in game I want to be like him when i play football or be like him in life.

    While there are several NJ Hall of Fame members I can identify with, the person that I have the most in common with in terms of personal experience and lifestyle is Franco Harris. Franco Harris was an elite level African-American football player who played running back for the Steelers and Seahawks who was the first African-American to win the Super Bowl MVP award in 1975. Aside from playing football, the reason why I chose Harris because we are both pioneers in a sense. He was one first of the great African American postseason running backs and the first black Super Bowl MVP. I am the first person in my family to play D1 collegiate athletics, which is already a small company as about 2% of high school football players play D1 football.…

According to Derrick Williams, the detective that dealt with Sharper’s case, “prosecutors were hesitant to move too quickly on a local football hero with deep pockets and savvy lawyers,” (Williams).

    Friday Night Lights’ Boobie Miles and Oklahoma Sooner Marcus Dupree have quite the similarities when it comes to their football glory. Boobie Miles and his Uncle L.V. had dreams of Boobie turning professional and being a highly paid running back in the NFL. Marcus Dupree had similar goals and dreams as the media, during his college career, was making him out to be the best to ever play the game. In his high school days Boobie suffered a sickening blow to his knee that set back his dreams of playing in the pros. Boobie struggled to get back onto his feet; his Uncle L.V. was the only one that could lift Boobie’s spirits about playing in the NFL. Marcus Dupree, a standout high school football player from Mississippi was recruited by the University of Oklahoma and the University of Texas on a football scholarship. Dupree signed his letter of intent to join the Oklahoma Sooners after a brilliant high school career that included 87 touchdowns and 7,355 yards; he was simply the best running back to come out of high school ever (Bissinger 1). However, things changed quickly during his sophomore year at Oklahoma. Dupree told his Coach Barry Switzer that he had a dream he would tear up his knee in that day’s game but Barry didn’t care; he played. He ended up tearing every ligament in his knee that day, season over, career in jeopardy.…

    Role Model-Kobe Bryant

    • 896 Words
    • 4 Pages

    On April 12, 2011, the San Antonio Spurs went head to head with the Las Angeles Lakers. To give you an overview of the game, the San Antonio Spurs went home with a lost for the game, but in my book I believe that the Lakers lost that night. Now, why I say that is because Kobe Bryant played with a very short fuse on this night, which is a common thing to see. He earned his fifteenth technical foul of the season and coming close to the NBA’s one game suspension. Bryant’s tantrum was really elevated by punching a chair on the bench. Now, I am personally not surprised, since all season long he has thrown these tantrums. I say tantrums because Kobe is the type of guy that feels everything should go his way. Kobe Bryant was born August 23, 1978 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, raised Roman Catholic by Joe “jellybean” Bryant and Pamela Cox Bryant. Being from a Christian religion you would expect more of a respectful attitude, especially in a role model to our children. In my opinion, Kobe Bryant puts out a persona of a new ager in that he is very ego-centrically. He believes that he should be able to get away with anything he wants, even if that is hurting someone else.…
