Ever since I have liked football, I have been a fan of the Dallas Cowboys. I think that one of the main reasons that I like the team is because my dad, uncle, cousin, mom and sister like the Cowboys. But over the past few years I have really been getting into the game of football, and getting to know more of the players. One player that I really admire is Cowboys wide reciever Miles Austin.
I partly admire Miles Austin because of the position that he plays, wide reciever, which is my favourite football position. Wide reciever is a difficult position, and Miles Austin does a very good job playing it. Miles is fast, and when he catches the ball he speeds past all the defensive players. Miles is also very strong, which comes in handy in the position he plays because it means that it is hard to tackle him. The defensive players on the opposing team are faced with a real challenge to bring Miles down during a play.
Miles Austin is a role model to me for a few reasons. The first is because I have always wanted to play football as a wide reciever, and Miles is a great player to look up to in the way of skills. I also look up to Miles Austin because it is clear that he is very successful. Miles debuted on the Dallas Cowboys in 2006, after a very good university career. He attended Monmouth University and holds the record for receiving yards, 2, 867 yards. Miles also recently reached a milestone in his Dallas career, by achieving a Dallas franchise record of 250 recieving yards in one game. In addition, Miles is a 2010 Pro Bowl pick. The Pro Bowl is an NFL all star game, and showcases the best talent in the NFL.
I enjoy following the career of Miles Austin now, and I suspect I will for a long time. I look up to him in many ways, and someday I hope to be like him.
