Don't get me wrong. I was not a fan of football nor did I think I would be anytime soon. Yet I wasn't sure why I was screaming and cheering whenever our team scored a touch down. I wasn't sure why I was chanting Pereira with everyone else when Benecio did a cool ball trick.
There was a moment when Benecio didn't even have a chance to throw the ball to anyone because the defense was too strong, therefore he just took the ball and started running. From one end of the pitch to the other.
I had never seen anyone faster. Three guys tried to tackle him but he somehow pushed them aside and still scored a touchdown. It quickly clicked why people were such big fans of him. He was great at what he did.
By the end of the game our team won and I was singing our school war cry as Rodney and I hugged then hopped around. Benecio was doing interview after interview therefore I knew he wouldn't really pay attention to us right now. Jay took us back to the locker rooms and exited.
