You feel that? Football season is back. You may be one of those fans that has been counting down the days until the return of the NFL, or you may be someone who has no interest in football at all and you just watch the Super Bowl for the funny commercials. Whatever your opinion may be on football here are 15 reasons to get pumped up for football season.

1. Breaking out your favorite jersey

Let's be honest we all have a football jersey that we have been waiting to wear since last season. Well now is that time. Take it out of your closet and rock it!

2. Fantasy football

When the NFL comes back, fantasy football leagues follow. So get your squad together and your teams ready.

3. THE FOOD

For those of us who don't enjoy watching football, enjoy eating that food that is served at football parties. Wings, pizza, and beer. Oh my!

4. Tailgating

More food and football? Yes please!

5. New touchdown dances

One of my favorite things about watching football, is seeing the ridiculous touchdown dances these professional athletes come up with. Whether they be doing a backflip in the end zone or dabbing, we can look forward to seeing some new and improved dances.

6. The sweet feeling of victory

There is no better feeling than the one you get when your favorite team wins a game. Whether it be a tough game, an easy win, or the Super Bowl, victory feels so great.


7. The Top Ten

Now that football is back, the Sport's Center Top Ten won't be all about baseball.

8. The adrenaline of the crowds

Football fans are crazy! Crazy fans lead to crazy crowds. Hearing the roar of a crowd is enough to give anyone chills.

9. The attractive players

They're back ladies. Not only do women enjoy football for the sport it is, but we also enjoy it for the attractive and athletic men in tight pants.


10. Witnessing a Hail Mary throw

Although it is rare it is amazing to witness, especially when your favorite team pulls it off.


11. The coaches

The good, the bad, and the funny. Sometimes a coach can be the most entertaining part of a football game. Although these guys seem intense most of the time they put their heart and soul into their team, for that we as fans should be thankful.


12. The referees

For all the crap they have to deal with they usually do a pretty good job making sure the game is played fairly. Although we may not agree with them over half of the time they do their best.


13. Sacking the opposing teams quarterback

There is a feeling of satisfaction and domination when your team sacks your opposing team's quarterback.


14. Inhuman interceptions

Football players are crazy athletic and it is always fun to see the insane and inhuman interceptions they can pull off.

15. THE SUPER BOWL!

Last but surely not least, the Super Bowl. Whether you be watching it for the game, the halftime show, the food,

the commercials, or just fear of missing out, the Super Bowl is one of the most watched events on television every year.


Well there you have it, 15 reasons you need to be excited that football season is back!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
