New England gave the win to the Colts at the end of the fourth quarter with a bizarre decision by Coach Belichick not to kick. With two minutes left, an interception and a fumble in the rival's end zone in the fourth quarter, Indianapolis earned the win and kept its unbeatable record this season, now...more

Author: Oswald MelmanFor some Americans, football is more than just a pastime to be leisurely enjoyed – it is a passion. Die-hard football fans live for their NFL Sunday Ticket subscriptions, eagerly awaiting the pre-season to begin as the summer winds down and football picks up. Though playing football throughout life is not the most run-of-the-mill lifestyle choice for a great majority of Americans, watching the sport is. Nevertheless, to some, the sport seems a bit confusing and, let’s face it, violent. A stop-and-go competition in which size, stature and speed all have value, the game itself can be quite complex.

But some states take it a step further and train their high school athletes as if they are at college level. Some states feel so strongly about football that entire towns close down in the event of a rival high school football game. Air hockey tables are inexistent and full length football fields is where it’s at. There are some US States that take football to a whole other level, from pre-school all the way to the Pros. Texas- The Alamo State: The state of Texas is by far the most hardcore state when it comes to high school football. I mean really, how many football movies can you name that you know took place in Texas. I can name many that depict football as a staple activity in almost all young male’s lives. In fact, it is uncommon to see Texas portrayed without the mention of this sport. Remember Varsity Blues, Dazed and Confused, and Friday Night Lights?
