Introducing... The '92 where they are, what they're doing and whom they're with." Dedication. Motivation. Cooperation. Self-confidence. A wholesome way to spend time. But why do our sons like to play the game? "I like the physical aspect of the sport," said my son Dan. "I like to hit, tackle and crunch. You can do it and it's legal." Zack Kepes said, "I like to hit people. It's fast moving and not boring like baseball. It's more of a team sport than I've played before and your teammates are depending on you. You get enjoyment knocking the other team down. You hear the crowd and you get enthused." "It's harder work than any sport I've played," said Marc Selik. "You get conditioned and in shape even if you're not getting a lot of playing time. I like playing a team sport. If you make a mistake, it's not all your responsibili- ty." "I like physical sports," said David Parzen. "It's similar to hockey in that it's very physical, but football is more of a contact sport and I like that." "I wanted to lose weight and have a good time," said Gregg Finegood. "You can hit people and not get arrested for it." "I play football just because it's fun," added my son Dan. Football. Fun. Thirteen- year-old boys are entitled to some. Even if their mothers can't bear to watch. Postscript The Norup Hawks finished their season undefeated last week with a 6-0 record, win- ning their last game 36-12 against Berkley School District rival Anderson Middle School. It was Norup's best record in years. The record on injuries, however, took a turn for the worse. Nancy Finegood had just joked to a friend, "Well, the bar mitzvah's over (celebrated the previous weekend). Now Gregg can get hurt." Within seconds her son was down. Taken by am- bulance to Beaumont Hospital, Gregg was diag- nosed with having a broken leg. "I don't think he's ever playing football again," said Mrs. Finegood. "I think I am," said Gregg, undaunted at the prospect of facing six weeks on crutches. ❑ PLYMOUTH VOYAGER $279 Unsuccessful Contact Lens Wearers GOLD KEY PLUS PER MONTH/36 MONTHS 'Based cn approved credit. 15.000 miles per mite yeor maximum with no penalty 10` per mile over 15.000 miles Owner respon- sible for excess wear and tear Total of payments. take monthly payment multiply number of payments Plus plates.
