Jackels game rained out

            A Jackals game was on for today but, it was rained out due to harsh weather. But before the game was canceled the manger, batting coach as well as 1st base coach were asked a few questions. All the Jackals players are from different players. A couple may be local but most are from not only different states but as well as different countries. The players as well as the coach hate the place that they are in right now, 4th out of only 6 teams. The coaches say that they look for specific things when it comes time for practice. For example the hitting coach says he looks for their technique when it comes time for practice. The manager him self said that on a scale from 1-10, he would rate his team with a score below 5. He also says that the most important thing to him about baseball is teamwork, he wants his players to have good chemistry so that they can do better. On the team there are 6 rookies and 5 veterans the manager says that for them to work good, the veterans must be a fare sport because of his experience and the rookies should show respect. Maybe they could make a miracle and get to first place if all these things happen.

Red Bull

          The Red Bull soccer team is very competitive. In their league they went from the last place in the league, to the second best team. When the question of what percentage do they think they have a winning the championship they said "100 percent". They say that their diversity is the thing that actually helps them to get better rather than harming them.
          They are also really into the world cup. Out of the three players that we interviewed they all said they were for Spain to win the world cup rather than the Netherlands. One of the players from Red Bull played in the world cup with their countries national team. All thought in the end all the players are naturally by their own love for the game of the soccer. They have all been playing their whole lives and they just love to play the game.

Mr.Harper

     Bruce Harper was a very good football player from 1977-1984. He played for the love of the game and nothing more. A quote form him was that he would have paid the NFL to let him play, that was just how much he loved the game. On his team his favorit player was Wesley Walker because he was a wide reciver that was legally blind in one eye but he still found a way to play for 12 years. Harpers favorite player off of his team was Toney Dorset. This was because as a running back you usually admire how other people run and he loved the way he ran. Unfortanitly injuries were common for him. He broke hisribs and both of his knees. His second knee injury was the thing that caused him to retire from his football career. He is an inspirationall football player.
yesterday we had a quest her  name is  kathy holloman she is a professional football player. Today we a quest speaker named bruce harper. its kind of funny because both of them are running backs. i like football so it was really cool listening to them. we also had a writer two to be exact. it was cool listening to them but some times it can be boring.
