KickOff+Essay1

__Ronde and Tiki always thought that Football was the most important thing they had to worry about until they learned that there school work was more important.__ They learned it because they realized that if you don't have good grades then you cant play Football. And that means that Football is nothing with out having good enough grades to be able to play and that is only one of the great reasons why school is more important then Football.

One of those great reasons are that __School can also teach you lessons in Football__. Like when you are playing football and you are suppose to take a angle you will not know what a angle is unless you learned math a and if you never learned about numbers then you would never know what part of the field you are on. And for Ronde and Tiki learned from there teachers that if they don't worry in class and aks questins then they will have a clear mind for the game.

The boys also learned that __when they have bad grades they are not able to play sports__. And it is not only the coaches who wont let you play it can also be your parents like Tiki and Ronde's mom. Because after she found out that the boys were not doing to well in school and they were afraid to answer questions and she know if she did not do something about it then they would not be able to play so they could focus on there school work. And that is one of Ronde and Tiki's experiences when they learned that if they have bad grades then they would not be able to play sports.

There is also one thing the Ronde and Tiki learned but still need to work on is If __They don't stand up for what they believe in at school then they will never learn anything__. Like when a teacher is teaching a new lesson and you don't know if your answer is right or not so you do not share your answer because you are afraid you will be embarrassed. Like what happed to Tiki when and he could have had the right answer but he will never know because he did not stand up for what he believed in. And that is because if you don't stand up for things then you will be afraid to talk to people who believe in something different. Like what happens every day when you stand up for things like religion, sports and even your friends.

In the story Kickoff Ronde and Tiki learned many important lessons in life but I think that the most important lesson that they learned was that even know sports can mean a lot to you school work is more important then sports and even know Ronde and Tiki Barber are famous football players they would not be there with out there education.
