Priest Holmes

by Christopher from Pinehurst


When you think of a hero, I think of someone who helps his football team a lot, and that is Priest Holmes. He took the Chiefs to the top of the NFL. Priest Holmes is an outstanding football player.

Priest Holmes is the running back for the Kansas City Chiefs. He is talented and thoughtful. At one time, Holmes was the number one running back in the country with 26 touchdowns.His rushing recored is 2,169 yards. He helped his team achieve a ten game winning streak! In fact, ESPN gave him the nickname "The Barroner of The End Zone" because he scores a lot of touchdowns. As a member of the Kansas City Chiefs, he is a great fighter because he has to take huge hits from defensive stars like, Ray Lewis, Willie McInist,and many more.

When I grow up, it is my dream to play football as well as my hero. By watching him on telvison, I have learned to break tackles like a pro and how to jump over the line of scrimmage when I`m running. Also, I have learned to jump when someone tries to tackle me when I'm running in a football game.

Because of Priest`s influence, I am playing football with more determination and toughness. I really like to watch him play football.
