Free Write 1-17-13

One of my favorite things is sports.  I like to watch and play almost anythings related to sports.  One of the coolest feelings is when you see a complete underdog accomplish something that no one thought that they wold.  I played basketball and baseball in high school becasue our school did not have football.  If we would have had footabll I definitly would have played though.  Basketball was my fovorite game to play however.  I played shooting guard and back up point guard.  I averaged 15 points my junior year and 18 my senior year.  I shot a lot of three pointers and was a very high percentage shooter.  I had to be good at shooting becasue athletically I was not gifted with the abilioty to jump so I made up with it by being ghood at shooting.  I played vartsity all four years of high school and was all conference and all district for two years.  The other sport I played baseball I could have been a lot betyter at if I would have worked harder at it.  I was one of the leaders on the team that knew exactly when to be serious however.  I was a center fielder and could throw the ball a long way which made up for me not beign super fast.  I also was very good at getting jumps on the ball so that I could make up for the slower speed.  I was an above averasge hitter in high scholl starting all four years on varsity but just never found it as wxciting as basketball. 
I love college basketball and football and some NBA.  My favorte school is Mizzou and I follow everythign that happens with them.  One of the cool things is now Mizzou is in the SEC so I can follow Alabama which is the premier program in the cojuntry./  I really enjoy watching coach Saben becasue he is definitly one of the best coashec on the league.  I also like the southern mentality with football.  They take it seriously and are one of the biggest recruiting areas in the country.
If I was to have a boy one day I would definitly want him to play football and hopefully quarterback.  If I had a girl she would be good at volleyball.  My uncle was assistant volleyball coach at MSU and MSSU for about 10 years and still coaches elite clubs in the area.  I think that will help ehr with her futrue in that career. 
I am also very into music.  My grandmother was a music teacher more 25 years and graduated from MIzzou with her masters in music education.  Her favorite thing is musci and she quit teached when she started to get larengitus a lot.
