Chapter #47: Rivalries Part 1

What makes a true rivalry?? Obviously someone or team who knock off the other and each with a certain time period it is a week or a year most likely that side wins...then it is a rivalry. This is a relation with sports and how often do we as most of us are a fan of sports see rivalries going on in different types of sports I think to me that's what sports is about not all the time but definitely most.

NFL: I'm not the biggest fan of the NFL but when the playoffs arrive then it's big deal unless I'm looking at the Atlanta Falcons which I try to do each week. Football season just came to a close two weekends ago...getting to those conference battles or division games where pretty much you are playing for something I think are the best games. For one the Redskins and Cowboys this past season had it's moments but when Robert Griffin III (RG3) came into the show in D.C it started to change everything especially with this season the Redskins ended up winning both meetings including the last game of the season on Sunday night which sent Washington to the postseason. Another battle from this season the Ravens and the Steelers from the AFC North where the road teams went into the other's stadium and beat them. That's what have a rival is all about...

NCAA: Obviously, early this week I watch my K-State basketball team play Kansas and once again losing to them on the road in Lawrence again is something that us as students see to far often. KU once again sweeps the season series against the Cats like they did last season follow that up by another road loss big. It seems to me it does not matter the coach or what players that are being put out on the floor it seems that Kansas gets the best of them every time. K-State had the opportunity to put the Big 12 on ice and now find themselves in the dogfight with KU, Oklahoma State and throw Baylor in the mix...what going to happen next in the Big 12 race find out real soon.

MLB: Going back to those division rivalries and now you have interleague play where the American League team plays the National League depending on where it is you have to play within those rules DH or no DH at all. Atlanta/Boston, New York/New York, St. Louis/Kansas City these types games are fun for fans to enjoy and even if you are not a baseball fan different types of games make it interesting. More on this topic in the later chapters to come.

Chapter #46: New Year, Different Start

My bad y'all, haha!! I have been slacking with blogging lately but guess what I'm back and this is my fist blog of the new year and it's in February. Yeah, my hands have been tied up with a busy semester, some switching up in my classes, radio, and most likely a possible trip which could most likely change everything. Running through this in the back of my head this could be the most epic year yet and it just started and we are only in the second month already. Time ticking...this right will once again be the start of another year of blogging my 3rd year of doing this since moving on to Kansas State. Already I have made some moves to benefit myself to make sure that I can do the things that I need to do...I'm working my way back into this a little bit so be patience, haha. That's why this episode is only an intro...also, there will be some mixing it a little bit more at least of right now this spring semester. More on that as I getting to this spring semester. Not just on facebook will be getting these blog posts but I will be posting these to my twitter account as well. Yes, my follower count is growing a little bit now and that audience needs to be informed too, lol. I think that's it for now, more to come throughout the spring semester.

Stay Cool,
