 * __[|Spring Ball 2.m4a]__ **


 * Some think of it as a game. **
 * For us it was more than a game. **


 * Every game was like a life. **
 * There were ups. **
 * And downs. **
 * But we were always strong, we fought till the end. **


 * But it was never about wins or loses. **
 * For us it was about screwing around and having fun with friends. **
 * Just having a good time. **


 * We came together as a team. **
 * But we left as brothers. **


 * It felt like it could be forever. **
 * But now it’s gone. **


 * All the games. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">All the touchdowns. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">All the wins. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">All gone. **


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">We go to high school. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Some of us play ball, some study and some sit on the couch and get fat. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">But we’ll grow up and get old, get jobs, families, new lives. **


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">But every one of those guys will keep the memories. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Memories of making that sick catch, busting a long TD run or making that huge hit. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">But what made those memories even better was doing it with 30 other guys. **
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">30 guys that were our brothers. Our friends **
