Why do you think athletics is an important part of high school?

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

I picture myself sitting in front of a sewing machine altering my Pennslyvania State Police Trooper uniform. Why you may ask?  Because my legs and arms are so massive that they don’t fit into a standard uniform. Once the alterations are complete, I will enter a Ford Crown Victoria and begin patrolling the mean streets of the USA’s finest commonwealth.
