Tow #2

For my second TOW, I did the sports illustrated article, Friday Night lights 25th anniversary. The follow up of this famous book and movie. The article talks about the brotherhood and the real insight of the experiences each player had. To me this article really proved that this story will always be remembered, I say this because after 25 years people across the world are commemorating the climb of a rural city football team playing in front of thousands of people. The article although may seem limited on information the men from this team spoke to sports illustrated, "I want to resurrect those memories, since I am now 60, when you forget far more than you remember. I hate going back in my life, and I am not a believer in nostalgia. But on the eve of the 25th anniversary of the publication of Friday Night Lights, I feel compelled to return. It was a linchpin moment of my life. The moment, to be honest." This article in my opinion makes the movie and book plausible, because you see the true reactions and feelings behind the players, and now after reading this article I was able to make all connections to the movie and book.
