hated some aspects of the game‚ I hated the tight helmets‚ and the heavy padding‚ and the heat of the sun during practice because I had to be outside. But the thing that I absolutely hated the most was that I could not score the ball because I was a lineman. My dad noticed that I really didn’t like it so he got me started on basketball; it was obvious that I was going to be a very tall boy. That is when my greatest cause was started.

The study found that guards were “slightly shorter than both tackles and centers” for the 1950-1960 lineman. When the 2000-2010 linemen were looked at‚ the tackles were “significantly taller that both guards and centers” (Jacobson).

The sport of soccer has been around since ancient civilizations. The first trace of soccer dates way back to around 2‚500 BC in Ancient Egypt‚ with balls made of animal intestines or skin‚ for better bouncing.
