Andrew MageeArt & Architecture10/9/09WDYDWYDI practice some sort of football roughly 6 hours a day for UCLA.Sometimes I dread itSometimes I cannot waitBut either way, it is necessary and I have to do it.I do this, because I love this sport, I love this university and I want to constantly improve.I wake up as early as 5 some mornings for lifting.I do this, because I know it will make me a better player.I love lifting, but most of the time I hate the thought of our Friday morning lift.Knowing in the back of my head, that I will most likely be puking after the workout ends.I will willingly go through this in order to succeed.I pay attention in meetings for roughly 2 hours per day.I do this, because I am trying to improve by watching myself or my teammates perform.I might be tired or bored at times, but I force myself to learn in order to get an edge.I will do anything to get an edge over the competition, no matter what it takes.I practice for at least 2 ½ hours per day.My body is never at 100%, that’s the price you pay with playing fullback.I have aches and pains, but I try to take every rep I can get.Even if my body says no, I know I have to play through everything.That is the only way to improve on the field.I know it is all worth it, every time I see that #35 jersey with MAGEE on the back.
