hello, I used to play football, my position  was linebacker
Nice! Did you play college football? College football is considered the second tier of American football.
i was on a college football team but rarely got in a game to play
I am a fan of Longhorn football. They have won 27 conference championships total.
UT, yeah they do have a long tradition and history of winning
They have a decent basketball team too. They rank 17th in total victories in the NCAA division I.
i know they use to have a great team but i do not know about them nowadays
I don't follow basketball too much.  But I do like football. I think the linebacker position is the backbone of the team.
 the middle linebacker is referred to as the quarterback of the defense
I didn't know that. But it's understandable given their important role.
