YeahWrite #563 Weekly Writing Challenge
We Are The Champions I am a huge fan of American football, and last week, my University of Georgia Bulldogs won the national championship against one of our biggest rivals. It was 1980, before I was even born, the last time this happened, so you can imagine the high...
