However，he was persistent(坚持的) and __39__I joined the football team. That           40  to be one of my best decisions as a kid.

Our worst game  __41__ was the one against Crystal Falls. They beat us 56 to 6. Yeah! That was a football not a basketball _42__. We played them again when we were seniors. They __43__ us again but the score was much more _44_，30 to 20.

Coach Ledy would not let that __45__ again. He encouraged us to beat them，to pay them back. And we did so in the last game we played before __46__. I had scored 6 points alone in the game. Coach Ledy praised me. It was a huge _47 for me.

Was I a football hero? Ha! Ha! No，I couldn’t __48__ it without our team. The thing I learned through football was __49__. We won as a team and we __50__ as a team.
