Alright, let’s jaw about this Houston Northshore football, you hear? It’s a big deal, like them prize-winning pigs at the county fair, only with more gruntin’ and less mud… mostly.
Now, I ain’t no fancy sports writer, ya know? I’m just tellin’ ya what I see and what I hear from them folks down at the diner. They talk a blue streak about them Northshore boys, so they must be somethin’ special. They say these fellas are tough, real tough, like them old boots I wear to slop the hogs. They run fast, too, faster than a chicken hawk chasin’ a field mouse, I tell ya!
This football, it ain’t just about throwin’ the pigskin around, no sir. It’s about teamwork, like when we had that barn raisin’ last summer. Everybody gotta do their part, or the whole thing falls apart like a poorly stacked haystack. Them coaches, they’re like the foreman, yellin’ and pointin’, makin’ sure everyone’s pullin’ their weight.
I heard tell they got some games comin’ up, big games, they say. Bowl games or somethin’. Sounds fancy, like eatin’ with your Sunday best on. They gotta win a bunch of games to get there, though. It’s like plantin’ corn, you gotta do it right, from start to finish, or you ain’t gonna have nothin’ to harvest come fall. You gotta have a good beginning, middle and end.
What Makes Northshore Football Special?
- Them boys are strong, like bulls. They been liftin’ weights, I reckon, pumpin’ iron, just like my nephew does when he ain’t out in the fields.
- They fast, like I said. Quick as a hiccup, some of ’em. You blink, and they’re gone, touchdown!
- They smart, too. Not book smart, maybe, but football smart. They know where to be and when, like them bees knowin’ which flowers got the sweetest nectar.
Now, they talk about this “Heisman Trophy” sometimes. Sounds like a big shiny cup, somethin’ you’d put on your mantelpiece to show off to the neighbors. I don’t rightly know who gets it, but it’s a big deal, they say. Like winnin’ the blue ribbon for the biggest pumpkin at the fair. I heard that one year, even a feller who got fired ended up doin’ real well, must’ve lit a fire under him, I reckon.
And them professional fellas, the NFL, they play too. Every week, they got games. Folks get all riled up, cheerin’ for their teams. It’s like a town feud, only with helmets and pads instead of pitchforks and shovels. I heard folks down at the diner makin’ their picks every week. It’s like guessin’ how many beans in a jar, only with more money involved, I guess.
But back to Northshore. They got a good team, a real good team. They make the whole town proud. It’s somethin’ to look forward to on a Friday night, under them bright lights. It’s more excitin’ than a chicken fight, that’s for sure. It brings folks together, you know? Like a good old-fashioned picnic, only with more yellin’ and less potato salad.
So, if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ to do, go watch them Northshore boys play some football. You won’t be disappointed. It’s good, clean fun, and it’ll make you feel like you’re part of somethin’ bigger than yourself. It’s like goin’ to church, only with more touchdowns and less preachin’. And that, to me, sounds like a mighty fine way to spend an evenin’.
What I’m Lookin’ Forward To:
Seein’ them boys win, that’s what! And seein’ how far they go. Maybe they’ll win that fancy trophy, or maybe they’ll just play their hearts out and make us proud. Either way, it’s gonna be a season to remember, I betcha. Like that summer we had the locust plague, only with more fun and less screamin’.
So, there you have it. That’s my take on Houston Northshore football. It ain’t fancy, but it’s honest, just like me. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them chickens.
