How Important Are Nfl Try Outs
The NFL try outs have been around for decades a tradition that seems to not have any end in sight. Year after year we watch as young men put on display the amount of potential that they "Potentially" have in their young bodies. These young men who have dedicated their lives to the sport of football to the point where they eat football and sleep between the sheets of their favorite NFL sports bedding set. Not only do these young men have to jump threw hoops like dogs on display for the National football league teams that they are trying out for but, they also must suffer the piercing gaze and insensitive remarks of ridicule from the public.Yet through it all these men pour their hearts out on to these fields to show everyone what they have to offer the sport.
But, this system has it's flaws because sometimes a great player can do horribly and sometimes that player that isn't always so great can go there and score perfectly. The problem begins when people look at only the statistics of the player and not the man behind the number. Because although these men get an extremely high pay check for the work they do, no matter how much you pay someone it can not and does not dictate the heart they put into it. To play in the highly competitive world of football you need to do more than just be able to lift allot of weight or run fast or touch a rope hanging high up. There are key things that only the men who have walked across the battlefield of freshly cut grass to give it their all, day of the day through blood, sweat, and tears only these men know what it truly takes to go through that. It takes heart, determination, guts, and a never ending and unbreakable will. This inner strength is what drives true athletes it is what picks them up when they fall, it is what will drive them forward through a usually unbearable pain. For now the only thing we have to test a player is the try outs but I hope one day their will be a way to test a player that goes beyond their physical toughness and will test their will to win at all cost because this is what can separate a player from a champion and what separates the man from the number.
