(Dennis Bergkamp is my favorite football player from when I was a kid. He played for my favorite football team Arsenal from 1995-2006. In that time frame, I was 10-21 years of age, and football was really important to me growing up. Dennis was a very hard worker and very skillful and when I played football I tried to play like him. He is also the reason why I traveled to the Netherlands in the past.) (2mins) T asks the Ss, Who is somebody that you look up to? If no immediate Ss responses T picks a Ss to respond.
