Intricacies of Football
It’s almost the end of August, which means one thing…the return of football, my favorite sport. The calendar inching closer and closer to September signifies incoming cooler weather, hours upon hours of college and NFL football games, and even days spent outside at the soccer field. To put it lightly, it’s my favorite time of the year.

Join me as we shine a historical spotlight on one of the greatest running backs of all time, James Nathaniel Brown.
