Do you aspirate the sounds shown as captial letters above? (the "T" and "P" in the above cases)
I could barely hear anyone aspirate those sounds, even when I was playing the online dictionary, I could hardly hear it. Please clarify for me, thank you very much.
English question, please help?

No, as far as I know, it's impossible to aspirate a plosive before another plosive in continuous speech. In the first two cases, I substitute a glottal stop for the t. In the last case, I say that as a truly unaspirated [p].

With football, yes. With basketball and laptop I personally pronounce them more clearly, however many pople pronounce things in different ways even though they speak the same language

They aren't aspirated, they are plosives. The definition of a plosive is stopping air flow. Imagine they're two words, foot ball, and simply join them together with no connection (so not footaball or something)
