I have a younger brother that is one of those people that would rather have his nose in a book than doing anything physical.  Me, I was just the opposite.  I thought the only good thing about books was they made pretty good weights to build muscles when you carried a lot of them.

Well our mother finally found something that has him up and moving.  She took him to a Tae Kwon Do class and he actually joined by his choice too.  This kid that never did a single push-up in his life is now doing push-ups and clapping when he comes up between push-ups.  Absolutely amazing.

I could not be prouder of him for all of the hard work he has put into this.  He has come a long way in a very short time and still making A’s in school.  He finally learned that you have to feed your body as well as your mind.

I was talking to my mother and she asked me if I had seen the movie Secretariat yet.  I had never even heard of it so I asked what it was about.  She said it was a movie about the only horse she ever bet on in her life and it won.  Well that got my interest up.

I have to admit, it was a great movie.  Man that was one amazing animal.  It was great to see how this everyday housewife stuck to her guns and would not let anything stop her from seeing this horse run, and man could he ever run.  If you haven’t seen this movie, I recommend it, especially if you have to watch something your lady friend would like too.

Every year the Super Bowl comes around, I get all excited. This year’s matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the Pittsburg Steelers is no exception. I plan on rooting for the Packers as I love their tradition of football. I think they will take the game by a small margin.

They game is scheduled to be played at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington Texas. I am also looking forward to the great commercials that always appear at this time. Football is a huge part of our culture and it will be good to celebrate its greatest game!

A group of nuns from Baltimore received an unexpected blessing. When one of the sister’s brothers died, they found a rare baseball card in his safe. The card is one of only 60 Honus Wagner cards known to exist. The nuns put the card up for action and received a whopping $262,000 thousand dollars from a collector. The nuns will put the money to good use by investing in their charities across the world.

Now that football season is getting ready to crank up, I am very excited. I love to watch every game I can as football is my favorite sport. I like taking the time on a Sunday afternoon to cookout and watch the games with my friends. We always have a great time and we might drink a beer or two as well.

My favorite team is the Washington Redskins. I am looking forward to us having a good year and beating those darn Dallas Cowboys. I am sure we’ll do well with our new coach and quarterback. Hail to the Redskins and victory!!
