NFL Anthem Kneeling

The NFL has been in the news a lot lately because most of the players have been kneeling for the national anthem. The kneeling all started with one player his name is Colin Kaepernick. The reason he started to kneel was because he wanted unity for all races.  President Trump has come out and said that "The NFL needs to fire the players that kneel." This just fueled the fire for all of the NFL players that now have beef with Trump.  I personally believe that all NFL players shouldn't have to stand for the anthem. The soldiers fought for our freedom. That is why everyone should do what they believe in if it means kneeling or standing.

                                          

Football Sectional

Southern Wells football has 2 games left in the regular season. SW plays at home vs Heritage for senior night and then they travel to South Adams for their last game of the regular season. Then the Southern Wells Raiders travel to Eastside for their first sectional game. Eastside has beaten 2 of the sectional teams and lost to 1. They beat Adams Central and Fremont and lost to Churubusco. Churubusco look like the favorite to win the sectional as they play Northfield in the first round. A big first-round game is South Adams vs Adams Central and Northfield vs Churubusco. These 2 games are big games for this sectional.

Las Vegas Shooting

As we all know the Las Vegas shooting was very devastating to the country. Many were killed and even more injured. Here are some of the people who died during the concert. Afghanistan veteran, Christopher Roybal. In July Roybal wrote a Facebook post, "My response has always been the same, not one filled with a sense of pride or ego, but an answer filled with truth and genuine fear/anger," he wrote. "What's it like to be shot at? It's a nightmare no amount of drugs, no amount of therapy and no amount of drunk talks with you war veteran buddies will ever be able to escape." Hannah Ahlers, a stay at home mom of 3 was shot in the head while dancing with her husband of 17 years. Denise Salmon who was on vacation with her husband was also shot. Carrie Barnette, a 10-year Disney employee, also died in the attack. These are just some of the many that were killed in this tragic shooting. The only information really known about the gunman is that he was 64 years old who was retired and divorced twice with no children. He did not really have a criminal background before the shooting. What he did will never be forgotten, for he killed and injured so many who were trying to enjoy themselves at the concert. They did not deserve what happened to them but as a country, we will come together to get through this.

Most Respectable player of all time

I'm here to talk about why Lebron James the most respectable player of all time.

A reason LeBron James is the most respectable player of all time is that for one he created his own charity. He has created two schools I promise Elementary and I promise secondary school. The LeBron James Family Foundation’s mission is to positively affect the lives of children and young adults through education and co-curricular educational initiatives. They believe that an education and living an active, healthy lifestyle is pivotal to the development of children and young adults.LeBron James Also released a special shoe for the disabled the LeBron James 10 Zoom Soldier flyease The Footwear features a zipper and velcro instead of typical laces so the disabled with muscle issues are able to put them on.
