Being a football player
July 31, 2008
Football or soccer is a sports played by two teams. Each team should have 11 members to play. The objective of the players is to put the ball in the goal. Of course, without using the hands and only the use of feet to kick and direct the ball is allowed. Only the goalkeeper are allowed to use hands to block the ball going to the goal. Each team should have one goalkeeper.
My brother is a player of this game. As a player, they usually undergone in rigorous training.That’s why they were tall and strong.Most of them have lean muscles as developed in practices.
Players of these game were being taken care of. They provide trainings, allowances, foods and uniforms to pamper them out. So that they will perform better in the game and went home with trophies and more winnings.
Tennis is my game
July 31, 2008
Tennis is usually played by partner as team for double category or by single.It is easy to play. You should know the rules and how to handle the tennis racket were the basics. It is a famous sport played by most people nowadays.
Right now, this game involves tournament such as Wimbledon(UK), US open,Australian Open and Roland Garro(French Open) were also called as the Grand Slam tournament.These are the major tournament worldwide.
The famous players for this game are Pete Sampras, Venus Williams, Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova and many more. They masters different strokes and techniques.As I watched them playing, it’s so easy for them to grab the racket and hit the ball. But when I tried it, I found the racket heavy and I have a hard time hitting the ball. I think I have to work hard and practice more.
What I also like in this game is the attire of the players. I found it fashionable.With the style and signature label in the dress impress me a lot.
Formula 1 Update
July 30, 2008
All set for Hungarian Gran Prix on August 1-3, 2008. Will Lewis Hamilton extends his lead to his Ferrari rivals or Ferrari drivers regain their championship points?
Being a F1 driver you need to be physically fit in order to battle for around 5Gs effect on 1 hour and half to 2 hours race. The whole body must respond to vast force during high-speed throttle and braking. Mind and heart beat must be conditioned at any time of the race, thus reaction time during maneuvering and team directives are well executed. They are not just sitting the whole race but with coordinated body and mind to success. Aerobics fitness and brain simulation exercises must in high level to be competitive to this high stake sports.
Recent studies show that differing style of driving to Formula 1 drivers compensate tyres performance. An aggressive driver tends to wear his tyre quicker than a more compassionate driver. Drivers feedback to his engineers must be a responsibility for car improvement and performance dependability.
Nevertheless with the above differences, teamwork is the solution Together Everyone Achieves More which makes a TEAM.
Lets see who is going to scratch their heads after the race between the Ferrari-McLaren rivals.

US Basketball Team to Pursue Olympic Gold
July 29, 2008
The 2008 Olympics is just a few days away. And one of the most awaited games is the basketball. It is all set on August 10, 2008 in Beijing, China. I am certain that the US Basketball Team would wow many basketball fans. The 12-man squad is led by Kobe Bryant, 2008 NBA MVP and LeBron James, the league’s scoring champion.
National Basketball Association players were permitted in the Olympics in 1992. Since then the dominance of United States to basketball has been seen through out the years and evolved. The talents, pride, strategy, skills and team work of each player are keys to their success.
US team only won bronze on the 2004 Olympic Games. This is due to the emerging skills from players in different parts of the world. Argentina had won the game 4 years ago led by San Antonio Spurs’ Manu Ginóbili.
One possible downfall from the US team was their over confidence overlooking the talents from other players. Let’s hope they play better this year. Cheers to all basketball fans out there.
First Five of Basketball Game
July 24, 2008
In every basketball game, the first five of the team will play is the highlight of the game.They are the superstars.The players were the best in the team. Usually this strategy were common in most league. But some of them the best players were reserved for the second half of the game.
If the team Phoenix Suns were on the game, we are waiting for Steve Nash or Shaquille O’Neal as the first five. We also look up to Leandro Barbosa, Grant Hill and Amare Stoudemire. For San Antonio Spurs, we are go for Matt Bonner,Tim Duncan,and Tony Parker be in the first five. They are the superstars of the team. It’s our own pick whom we are going to cheer and support at.
The first five plays the important role in the first half. They lead the game.They make the game easier to catch up for the second half.
We love the team as we love the game. We always have our own favorites.Our expectation of having our favorite player be included in the first five. If not, we waited for them to be lineup on the second half. We cheer for them to give support.
Pacman: Who is next?
July 24, 2008
Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao is a world-renowned professional boxer. He had won in several World Boxing Championship(WBC) matches like the Light Weight and Super Feather Weight divisions. He is currently the defending champion of both divisions.
The recent bout he had with David Diaz was again another boxing success for Pacman. He has been dominating majority of the boxing matches with Mexicans. Names like Barrera, Morales, and Diaz are the Mexican boxers he had won over the WBC. Rumor has it that another must-see event is to come, a fight with the “Golden Boy”, Oscar Dela Hoya.
Pacman is one of the successful Filipino athletes to make his country proud. At the age of 27, he had been earning million dollars for his sport. His boxing career is inspiring for young aspiring boxers. Although there have been several successful Asian boxers but did not manage to survive. Notable factors to this is mismanagement of earnings and other environmental influences.
Nevertheless, nothing in this world is perfect. We all have our flaws. Thus, whichever way we want to run our lives is our own choice. I hope we choose the right one to live successfully.
Ends at the Peak
July 21, 2008
I have recently been checking on the updates of famous players who have wowed many audiences in the entire world. Two names that I can well remember is Michael Schumacher and Justine Henin are famous players who have retired while at the peak of their careers.
Michael is one of the great Formula One Race driver for Ferrari team. He retired a few years ago and now serves as technical adviser for Ferrari team. While Justine, is great for her phenomenal contributions in the tennis sport. She retired recently to I think focus on her personal family life. I admire their philosophy. I think they had reached the goal they were aiming for. Thus, they want to be remembered as the players with historical records rather than someone that fades in time.
Retirement at the peak of a person’s career could be a difficult decision. But for me, I find it a selfless decision. This is to give opportunity to promising players aiming for the same goals they had. I salute these players for being such humbled persons.

Hamilton got disqualified last year when his team allegedly stole the technical data of Ferrari. Therefore, he is determined to win the driver’s championship this year for McLaren.
For all Ferrari fans, it is an unfortunate day for all of us. Felipe Massa landing at 3rd place while Kimi Raikkonen at 6th place. However, hold your horses. Tomorrow’s race will affect team strategy, car performance and reliability, and driver’s passion to win the race.
