Basketball and Football

Basketball and football are somewhat the same. In basketball you have a team that runs up and down trying to make the ball in the goal. Football is the same thing. In basketball there are rules that players have to follow just like in football. A foul is when a player on the defensive team hits a player on the offensive team. Same in foot ball but it’s called pass interference which is when the defensive player hits or happens to do something that can cause him not to catch the ball. Things like hitting his hand, pushing him in the air.
Basketball is played on a hardwood floor with a round bouncing ball. Their goal is to get it into a basket, hence the name basketball. Football is played on a 100 yard field with a team of at least 12 people from each team on the field. While in basketball there’s only 5 people from each team. In football a ball is thrown several yards to a receiver whose job is to run and get it into the in-zone and score a touchdown which is worth six points. Then after they can kick the aerodynamic ball between goals to get an extra point or you can run a play for a two point conversion. You wear football cleats to play on football but you have to wear sneaker when you playing basketball. In football you get to tackle the ball carrier and you have to wear protective equipment so you dont get hurt.

The Wetter The Better

One day about two summers ago my friends and I were playing touch football in the middle of the street. It's a one way street where not a lot of cars pass through. We trashed talked, laughed and had fun all at once. My mother was looking out the window because there was a lot of yelling going on. People on the sidewalk stopped walking to watch us play. I guess we were playing pretty good. Out of nowhere it’s gets cloudy and starts to rain. This wasn’t your ordinary rain this rain came down with force and it didn’t come alone. It came with its friend wind. The football game didn’t stop, instead it kept going. The rain made the game more enjoyable, we were sliding everywhere, we had to run extra hard. Some of us couldn’t catch the ball and the ones who did end up falling and hitting the ground. We laughed at how we fell, laughed at how we caught the football in some of the weirdest ways. Our clothes were all soaked from the rain. Our parents would call out the window telling us to come upstairs but we didn’t listen we were to busy having fun in the rain. The rain and the wind made the game more difficult, which made it more fun.
