NCAA Tourny

Coming up is one of the most famous activities in the history of March, March-Maddness. March Maddness is the NCAA tournement to see who will be crowned as the champion of division one college basketball. There are 65 teams that make the bracket and this year is sure to be a great year with all of the match-ups. There are four number 1 seeds, and they are, Kentucky, Duke, Kansas, and Syracuse. I am rooting for Ohio St. to win it all and if they play good they may have a chance. Good luck to everyone on there brackets this year and also look out for Baylor!

184 Million !

In baseball news, everyone is talking about the amazing contract that the Twins superstar catcher just recieved. The Twins superstar catcher is Joe Mauer, and he won the MVP award last year, but where is the line of paying baseball players enough, and too much? I realize that he is a great ball player but when a player is going to get 184 Million dollars (acording to espn.com) over an eight year period is just amazing. This just goes to show that in america sports are highly ranked on the totum pole, and players are payed too much to play the sport that they are good at.

Make up your mind

Now that the football team here at the College has ended thier season, it brings up the question for some, wether to stay and play next year, or to give up thier football career, and focus on there schooling. Many say that they are tired of playing football, or that they may not like the coach, but one factor that makes me so mad is when i hear guys say that it just isnt fun anymore. Why would anyone want to play a sport and practice everyday when it isnt fun. Some people should realize that sports are not life in this world and make up there mind what is important in life, being happy or misurable?

Wrongly Voted

The NBA ( national basketball assosication) All-Star game just finished and like always it is the best of the best in the NBA in action. To see players such as LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Carmello anthony just to name a few all on the court at once is amazing. The players that play in the game are all voted on by the people in the world. This is usually fine because most offtend the people vote the best people into the game. This year is different, a guy named Allen Iverson was voted into the game and i dont see how he is worthy. The guy didnt even play but like ten games and didnt have any amazing stats. This is the problem with the sports nation, just because a guy is known widly in the world, he was voted in. This is very upseting to me, they should put the best people in the game, but the known names will always be in there regardless on there preformance.

Apolo 7 ?

In my past post i talked about the Olympics, and i am very big fan of the Winter Olympics! One of the biggest stories, are Apolo the speed skater, one of the best winter olypians for the United States of all time. Many kids grow up dreaming about becoming a metal winner at the Olympics, but for Apolo to get 7 metals is amazing. He has met and raised the bar for becoming one of the best ever, and continues to preform and win. I hope that he stays helthy and keeps on working so that he can push his 7 metals to even more.

Anther Year, Same Result

Its that time again, winter Olympics and the United State is again doing well. The past few year, I have been watching the men's hockey team and other speed skating events. I think its cool how the pride of american's come out when there is a competion or challenge between different countries. Below I have a link fom NBC.com, so that you can follow the events and olympics, Go USA!

Time in the Gym= playing time

The other day my friend named Josh was complaining that his father was pushing him to be good in baseball so that he could improve his plaing time. Josh would get mad because he felt as if his father was being mea, and was just trying to make him a superstar. In return he would get mad after every baseball game because he didnt play, and that he would blame the coach for not playing when really it wa his own falt.This happens to many of kids through out the world, and happens in every sport. It's just a fact that all kids cant play as good as each other, or have the same amount of skills. Most of the time, the kids that play the most are kids that have put in their time to practice and work on their game. I think that it is only fair that the best kids play, as a kid i worked alot on my game and in return i played more than others. So in conclusion, i want to tell all the kids out there in the world to work hard, and have faith in your game, and you will earn playing time in any sport that you choose.
