CONCUSSED? BY BRYAN
In the average football season, 150 high school football players will face the effects of a concussion. This number is from players who were wearing helmets during their football games.  Many people will say it’s the game that is causing these injuries and saying that the sport is too rough. Although I found out that with the mass production of helmets, there are errors in the production of the equipment, and I also found that sometimes the person who is hit maybe unable to handle the pressure and velocity of the linebacker tackling them at their maximum speed. The average hit from a charging defender may be up to 300 times the weight of gravity. Some of the injuries in football are concussions from whiplash caused by certain hits. One way proven to prevent concussions is to have a mouth guard because the clash of your jaw causes energy to travel to the brain. Some ways to diagnose a concussion is to look for the following symptoms, dazed look immediately after the hit, lack of balance, slurred speech, blurred vision, even with some  of these symptoms some will recover 100% though many may be more vulnerable to more concussions. Though football is a tough sport the injuries a player will receive are not life threatening to the football player or his career. So to conclude i found out that the sport of football is not the issue it’s the carelessness of how the equipment is made.

Pink Floyd Concert Experience by Greg
The thousands of peopleand the bright lights. The concert started off with Rodger waters coming out with children.  They were all singing. During the whole concert the stage crews build up a wall and on the wall there were pictures and videos. This is what I saw when I saw Rodger Waters live. In 1996 Pink Floyd was inducted to the rock n roll hall of fame. Still to this day people listen to and love the band. If you’ve never listen to them do it NOW!
Rodger Water still tours and does The Wall Live.
