Pick up the Phone
Don't you hate when someone calls you first, then when you try to call back, they aren't' answering you call. Why can't they just keep their phone near them so they can answer the phone when they are calling you back. Then when they finally answer they say, "I didn't get a call from you at all."

The passion of sports
Everyone that plays a sport can be great at it or can progress in that sport. It might be a sport that you played all your life, but why do people say that, "I live for this game." What does this mean.

Teamwork in Football
I think football is the main sport that needs every individual to do his part in the game. Yes there are other sports that need more than one player to be effective in the game, but football is the hardest one. A lot of teams have great quarterbacks but if that same team doesn't have a great offensive line, than the quarterback can as great as they say he is. Another example, a team can have a great wide out, but if that team doesn't have a quarterback that can get him the ball then how can that wide out show his effectiveness in the game. Is there any other sport besides football that have the same circumstance?

Clean vs. Dirty Hits in The NFL
Football is a very competitive sport with a lot of physical contact, but some of the contact, are judged by if the hit is a clean or dirty. Most of the time the hits are often considered clean but what is defined as a dirty hit. In football i don't think there's no such thing as a dirty hit, because football can be violent sport and you're suppose to hit the other opponent as hard as you can. I understand that getting a cheap shot on someone away from the play or when someone gets called for a helmet to helmet hit. So what's really a dirty hit in football?

How Competitive Are Sports
I know that the intensity increases at its highest point on game day because you want to win, but how competitive can practice get when you go against the same players everyday of the week on every play. The coaches want you to play as if you are playing in the game and do it correct as well, but doesn't it get harder in practice everyday because the person across from you knows how you play and can use that in an advantage against you. I understand that you progress your skills in practice as the year continues but when players go hard in practice the speed might be the same but its a different feeling in practice.

Risks in Professional Sports
There are plenty of benefits for being a professional athlete. At the same time professionals have a lot to live up to. Everyone is watching them all the time. They have to be careful at all times because if they mess up, then the whole world might think otherwise of him or her. Look at the Micheal Vick situation, long before he got in trouble for dog fighting, dog fighting has been going on all over the US, but when a pro is involved, he gets in trouble. At that time, almost everyone hated him but what about those others out there in the world that are probably still participating in dog fighting.

What's more reliable
Which one would you rather use, the Internet or a book source. I know that more people are using the Internet more in today's world, but why isn't that some people say that the Internet is better to use more than a book source, or magazine, etc.. I think they are even, even though I use the Internet more often, some of the sites, anyone can change it, but the book can't change unless it's someone write an edited version of it. I think both of these sources a great to use when doing some research on a particular topic.
