This article was interesting to me because although I already knew that you needed to carb up before a marathon or a race, the article told me how much of it you should eat, “60 to 70 percent.” This article that I have posted really tells people why you need to carb up before a marathon or race.]]> 2018-04-03 14:29:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248135634 Anna https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248167439 https://www.olympic.org/news/olympic-basketball-s-muddy-beginningshttps://www.olympic.org/news/olympic-basketball-s-muddy-beginnings

The NCAA tournament championship game was very interesting because of all of the teams amazing skills. For example, Villanova beat Michigan in the finals with their amazing three point shots, and also their powerful team which leads to layups. Michigan is one of the best teams in the country at defending the three pointer, which will leave a one on one for a layup. Since Villanova is also very good at layups, they take their chance and score. It amazed me that Jaylen Brunson did not do very well in the championship game, and their bench came in clutch. One of the bench players had 31 points and played amazing defense. This was one of Villanovas daggers that helped win the championship game.]]> 2018-04-03 16:02:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248184244 Jason https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248252532 2018-04-03 18:25:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248252532 Erdene https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248252915 2018-04-03 18:26:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248252915 Cayla P7 https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248253005 2018-04-03 18:26:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248253005 Sophia B https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248253121 https://qz.com/861576/the-long-route-to-winning-the-first-african-gold-at-the-winter-olympics/https://qz.com/861576/the-long-route-to-winning-the-first-african-gold-at-the-winter-olympics/

This article is interesting to me because it talks about why softball should be in the Olympics, I agree because softball is a great sport and it is a common sport that I think people will enjoy watching. Right now they don’t have many competitive leagues for softball so if it’s in the Olympics that gives women more opportunities to showcase their talents, since there aren’t many girls/women playing softball this will make them play because they can have the Olympics as their goal which will keep them preserving.]]> 2018-04-03 20:14:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248296065 Scarlet Worthy https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/248297337 This article is about a Chinese lady who swims in the Olympics.

This article is about the figure skater and olympian, Bradie Tennell, and her journey to the olympics with her coach, Denise Myers. It also talk shows about how her music for her free skate, a Cinderella theme relates to her unexpected fame after she recently won the U.S national championship in the senior division. This article was very interesting to me because like Brynn said, Bradie skates at the same rink I skate at, Twin Rinks, and it is really cool to see how she has grown as a skater, never gave up, and accomplished her goals.

This article was very interesting to me, in the sense that it implemented the use of logic and statistics into the NCAA. Since the NCAA is a very large tournament that occurs every year, people will usually set off to create a March madness bracket. The goal of this bracket is to get all of the game winners correct, across all points of March Madness. Well, this article uses statistics, which really allowed me to visualize the thought that really must go into creating a bracket. A large reason for my interest in this article is how it emphasizes your actual chances of getting a perfect bracket, and possibly winning 1 million a year for life, as billionaire Warren Buffet proposed to give anyone who got a perfect bracket. Well, you actual have the virtually impossible odds of 1 to approximately 9,200,000,000,000,000,000. In words, this is well over one to nine quintillion! However, the article applies statistics, and average percentages to factor this score down to one to some billions, if the logic of the article is applied. I found it surprising to read about the tips and strategies this article talked about, in order to get a perfect bracket.

Though this occured before last night’s championship, it presented a nice view into thinking about the NCAA, and even applying probable upsets.

To briefly explain, he was waterskiing and during that time, the boat made a sudden stop which caused Jack’s leg to go in the propeller of the boat.

It gets very annoying when I have to hear these things over and over when it’s not true. Dance is a sport. Dance is very difficult and no one can succeed in it without years of training. Dancers are very strong. And dance is a way to express you feelings and get away from all of the stressful things in life. When you dance, you feel like you are in a whole different universe.

I chose this article because it a shows that even if there are challenges that might prevent women and young girl amateurs to play at the tournament it still is a start to include women in more golf tournaments. This is interesting to me because I am a fan of golf, I play golf, and I believe people should be treated equally.]]> 2018-04-06 01:17:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/249087431 Luke P8 https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/249088123 https://sports.yahoo.com/felipe-alou-talks-baseball-50s-90s-old-baseball-cards-181757748.htmlhttps://sports.yahoo.com/felipe-alou-talks-baseball-50s-90s-old-baseball-cards-181757748.html

This article was very interesting because Roger Federer won his 20th Grand Slam Title! This article talks about his very tough win against his opponent in the Australian Open. The article is also entertaining because it talks about how Roger Federer trains to be the number one player.

The World Cup is very interesting to me because is happens every 4 year and that the athletes amazing talent. It is very interesting due to being ever 4 years because it keeps everybody curious what will happen on the next World Cup. To add on, if people didn’t see the World Cup, they could use this website to get updated on the highlights of World Cup. By showing the highlights it always keeps  me in awe of how good these players are. It talks about the epoc moments of the World Cup which always keep me interested. It makes me want to read more.

Deflategate was when Tom Brady,(the star  on the New England Patriots) deflated his team’s balls so they are easier to catch and grip, during the championship game against the Indianapolis Colts. This shows how Tom Brady was being very selfish by giving his team an advantage, and not caring for the other team and how they would feel about losing. This also relates to the uconn coach because after he cheated Roger Goodel thought it was terrible so he suspended him like the uconn coach suspended stewie.]]> 2018-04-06 13:53:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/249224577 Ingrid Q Z7 https://padlet.com/jzbylut/qaf20dvtr5ty/wish/249225469 https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/05/sports/tony-finau-masters.html?rref=collection%2Fsectioncollection%2Fsports&action=click&contentCollection=sports&region=rank&module=package&version=highlights&contentPlacement=1&pgtype=sectionfront This article was interesting because it shows how people are doing just because of a game.

Also I liked how it was said in an energetic way that really enveloped me as a reader. In addition I like this because personally I just love soccer especially if it’s tense and their are sudden tiwsts during the gam.
