My page is obviously a sports blog. I haven't changed anything because it was my original idea to create a sports blog. I've already been sent two related links by other members of this class (Alex and Scott).

The first related blog is SBNation, which is a sports blog that was created by the guy who started a very popular political blog but then switched to sports because that was his true passion (according to Alex).

The second blog is called The Best Sports Blog. The title of the blog is fairly self explanatory.

The third related blog I found is called Sports Frog. It has a few different writers that contribute to the blog, which gives the readers different perspectives from different events.

On occasion, the Golden State Warriors look like a team well capable of sneaking into the playoffs as high as the number 6 seed in the Western Conference. Other times, it seems the Warriors aren't even capable of beating a Varsity high school squad. Which team is going to show up each night?

Amazing Article

I was going through ESPN.com as I usually do every hour or so and I came across an article that really took me by surprise and thought it was worth sharing with anyone who reads this blog. It is about Genarlow Wilson, a young high school football player that was an amazing athlete and student who had nothing but great things ahead of him. He had a sexual encounter with a girl who was 15 when he was 17 and his life changed shortly after that. The article was written by Wright Thompson and is something everyone should read.

Intro Splog

I have to say I really dont know where to begin this blog. I think I will just take this time to let everyone know where I stand on Blogs.

When blogs are used to share some kind of information or knowledge that might be important to society in any way, I guess I dont really have a problem with it. But when people use it as a forum for them to bitch and whine about their lives, or even to describe and log their lives so that others can read about them, you could say I have a real problem with them. Do you really need a journal for other people to read about your sorrows so that you can get others to feel sorry for you? I might just be in a really negative mood at the moment which might make me sound like an asshole, but I just think people use blogs and other online journal sites in order to portray themselves to other people as something other than who they really are. Me bitching about other people bitching is an example of things I would say is trash on blogs, but I feel as if I should make it clear on this mandatory assigment of where I stand on the subject.

Now that I think I have probably made myself seem like a total ass, lets move on to something that I care about and something that consumes everyday of my life. Sports.


Sports
I love all sports but I am especially drawn to baseball. I dont know why that is. Maybe it is because I played it when I was younger, but I also played basketball, football, soccer and vollyball. Other than the intro paragraph above, I will be devoting my entire splog to Local sporting events. I will break down Warrior games, Sharks games, Giants and A's games when the season begins in a couple months and I will write analysis of 49er activity during the offseason. I will even dive into the sabercats games as well as Stealth games, which will be exciting for me because Ive never covered those at KNBR until this semester.
