Poem Reflection
In english class the past few weeks we have had to share random poems to our using many different kind of ways. I would go online at least once a week and find a poem that I thought would be good to send to her so I went on snapchat and added our teacher and sent most of them to her from snapchat. It was kind of hard to decide what poems to send to her because there were a ton of different websites and poems too choose from so it took a while to find the perfect one every week. I also tweeted a couple of my blogs on twitter but I completely forgot to send them to her on there so I pretty much just tweeted random blogs to my classmates and followers. That is what I did for our poem reflection assignment.

Roses are red Violets are blue if you're like romeo and juliet try find whats best for you. Im sure you all have heard one of these types of poems before. I have seen many of these as I was growing up. My mom loves cute little riddles and poems, and she use to use these all the time! I've even heard sports versions of this before. When I was a kid I liked when my mother did this because it entertained me. I was amused by how it rhymes and how the beat works, but at the same time little kids are really easy to please. I thought you had to be a lyrical writer to make a good poem, but all it really needs is good imagination and even better vocabulary like music there is lyrical rap. that almost reminds me of a poem just cause of how they can rhyme so easy and fluent. My brother is a pro at that anyways, this poem is definitly a childhood tradition. I hear this every year, and the younger kids always have new versions of this little poem, and there will be many more to come!

Hello, I don't know about you, but I have been finding myself watching a lot of sports center about football. This is just me, but its most likely because the NFL Draft was on! This hot topic if it was on a scale from 1-10 on how hot this is it would definitely be a scorching 10. Whomever you are I see everybody watching the Draft. Seeing peoples faces with astonishing looks on their faces when Johnny Manziel went for the 22nd pick of the 1st round. Originally he was suppose to be top 10 material and dropped all the way down even his other 2 teammates made it before he did. I'm not saying anything bad about him, but it was quite the shock when this occurred. The Vikings ended up getting Teddy Bridgewater, personally I love teddy over johnny. I think Bridgewater is underrated compared to Johnny Manziel. Both of my brothers were really surprised when we had the chance to get Manziel, and we passed up the oppurtunity and got Anothony Barr, but like I said we got Teddy which makes me equally happy! As you can see this can be quite the topic these days espically when there are shocking changes like this that occurs in the draft. Hope you all enjoyed the draft as much as I did.

I have been in sports since I was a kid, and since then ive worked harder and harder and trying to hone my skills in those sports. Those sports consist of baseball, football, basketball, and soon to be hockey. I use to play hockey a lot as a kid. My family really loved hockey back in the day. All my brothers played hockey including Sky, Nick, Quentin, and shanton. I played as a kid, but quit because it got to be really expensive. My dad taught me a lot as kid growing up. He was pretty good at hockey he had the record for goals scored in White Bear Lake during his time so I think it will be pretty cool to keep hockey in the family. Im going into my sophmore year.. talk about a late start, but it shouldn't be nothing I cant handle. You know what they say practice makes perfect.
Even though I am joining late doesn't mean I cant handle competition. I like any kind of competition I like to strive myself to do better everyday. My first place to start is to go open skate on sundays, and get my skating down. then to move onto stick handling. You basically need a 6th sense with your stick its hard to get use to, but since I use to play I am determined to try get back into this sport even if I have to face embarrasment. I actually cant wait until I get to try this sport again.

In this blog I am going to talk about what a hot topic right now. I think a big topic right now that a lot of people are talking about is the NFL draft picks and who is going where after drafts are over. The drafts are a big deal to NFL fans because the NFL draft can change a team a lot. You can go from being the worst in the NFL to some what decent because you could get some good players so it is exciting to watch to see who your team is gonna pick. I was watching the Drafts last night and i'm pretty mad at the vikings for not picking Johnny Manzel but I heard the quarterback that we did end up picking is suppose to be pretty good to so its alright. Another reason why I like the NFL drafts is because I like to see how good the really good people in college do in the NFL because sometimes once they get into the NFL they do really bad because it's a whole new level of competition and sometimes they can't handle it. That's why I like the NFL drafts and why they are important to NFL fans.

Sports Poem

AP is proud to wear the purple he will soar to the endzone.

He will find a way to achieve better than the great Al capone.

He will run you over if your lacking

Be scared if your on defense better not be slacking

Crusade to victory he screams and shouts

AP is a viking not a little prissy tcup spout

If you let em loose he surely isnt coming out

He never will fall or be took down

Take a gander at him yet he has nothing but the yellow-purple gown

tis if he has a frown id look away

If he catches you staring you will pay

Proud to wear the horns that never fray.
