“Blog about Blogging” That’s what Mr. Ayers told me I had to blog about blogging. I’m really not sure how to go about this. But I know when we first started this blogging thing I did not like it at all. I thought wow how pointless and I still kind of do but not I figured out that you said 3 posts of 250 words a piece instead of what I thought you said of 3, 750 words a week. It is much easier they way you really wanted to us to do it. It always takes me awhile to get started but then when I finally get started it’s really not that bad because I picked something that I like and something I know a little bit about. Sports. Overall blogging is not that bad and I much rather be doing it that a ton of other stuff Ayers could be having us do.

And to all my fans out there because I know there’s a bunch, why I was gone last week. Last winter I broke my both bones in my leg during a wrestling match, they had to put 8 pins and a plate in to it. So this last Monday I had the plate and 8 pins taken out. Here’s a picture of what the leg looks like at the moment.

Yesterday was national signing day for high school athletes. This is where the top high school athletes that are planning to play sports at the next level (college) sign there letter of intent to where there going to go attend in the fall. LSU and USC no surprise came away with the top recruiting classes of 2009 according to ESPN U. University of Iowa walked away with pretty must the top players from Iowa for football. They got Keenan Davis form wash who is like the number 16 receiver overall in the nation. Then they got Brandon Wanger from Sioux City Heelen. He had offers from Penn State and Oklahoma State just to name a couple. Then they also got athlete Jordan Cotton from Mount Pleasant he was one of the top athletes in Iowa this year. They also got the top d-linemen from Decorah. He’s like 6’6 300. That’s pretty huge. I read in the paper yesterday and they had talked to Davis and Wanger and they both said that the Iowa coaches said they both have a good chance of being towards the top of the depth chart.
There are about six kids form Kennedy that are signing there letter of intents some time this week Jenny Martin, Jade Grimm, Jenny Snook, Catherin Lewis, Tyler Severqueer, and Kyle Slaymaker. The girls are all going to play soccer. Tyler and Kyle are going to UNI. Kyle will run track and Tyler will walk on to kick for the football team.

Michael Phelps is not a smart man. Actually when I first saw the picture of him smoking out of the bong, I was very shocked and surprised. Like how could the best swimmer ever be so stupid and wow he was dumb because now he’s going to loose all of his sponsors and his reputation is going to be shattered but now that I have had some time to think about it. I still think it was kind of dumb on his part that if he was going to do it, you probably shouldn’t have a picture taken of you doing it. But he is only like 21 so he’s still pretty much a young adult still, and he owned up to he didn’t make some lame excuses that it helps him swim better he just like yeah I did it, it was stupid and I am sorry and I think that’s the best part that he owned up to it like a man, and didn’t make a bunch of excuses.
The super bowl was this past weekend. I was very happy with the game because some years the super bowl isn’t even fun to watch or a good game but this year on the other hand I thought the game was great. Everyone I was with was cheering for the Cardinals for whatever reasons so I decided to cheer for Pittsburg. I started talking trash towards the end of the fourth when the Steelers were up and it seemed to be over but then Kurt Warner hit Fitzgerald on that crazy long pass right down the middle of the field and I started to get pretty worried after that but then Big Ben and Holmes had that great play with about a half of minute left to seal the deal.
