Family. That word can describe many things. To the boys of the Overbrook football team, the word family means looking out for each one of their teammates. Being a part of a team comes with many responsibilities and produces a bond within the team. Everyone sticks together and fullfils the coaches requests. However, when a team decides to take actions to an extreme, the team may not meet eye to eye with the coach.
As an athelete, I know I would do anything for the girls on my team. That is what we are there for, to work hard, TOGETHER. If one of the girls are put in the wrong, I feel as though it is my responsiblity to stand up for them. I would do this in a way to not disrespect my coach while still hold firm to my beliefs.
I feel as though the boys of the Overbrook football team were over penalized. Leading them on by having the boys practice the day before they were kicked off the team was childish and uncalled for. The boys were taught from the beginning that they were to act as a family. However, they did not know they would be punished for it when they took such actions.
