CRR #7

This meme supports the theme "Leaders are not always a good example" because Mr.Summers doesn't totally follow the Lottery but is still the leader of the whole thing. Mr.Summers controls the Lottery but is trying to persuade people to change the Black Spot.  "Summers began talking about a new box...".He even says "Lets get the last part over with" when stoning Tessie in the story. He isn't the best example when wanting to continue a tradition. When continuing a tradition you want a leader who is willing to do it and be enthusiastic about it.

Favorite Movie of All Time Blog #5 (SRR)

Favorite Movie of All Time Blog #5 (SRR)

          My favorite movie of all time has to be Stand by Me by Rob Riener. This movie is about a group of friends who go on a journey to find a dead body by some railroad tracks. Some bullies go to the tracks too, in a car to try to make big money. This movie is great because it is a great funny and adventurous, were lots of name calling and funny stories are told. There’s even a part were all of boys get in a little pond and get leeches all over them.

        My favorite part is when one of the boys tells a story about a really big guy who sabotages a pie eating contest by starting a barf party. While this is going there is two twin boys that barf on their mom at the same time! Stand by Me is full of great events just like this!

 This movie is full of adventure. They leave their homes most of them don't even tell their parents and go. On their way they stop and climb a fence to a junk yard. That junk yard is guarded by a dog that knows a really bad and painful command. After that they go to the woods and while everyone is sleeping one boy watches the others with a pistol just in case. Eventually they cross a huge bridge were one of the boys drops his comb! Then while they walk the bridge a train comes so they sprint and it's super awesome. Once they end up finding the body the bullies arrive, and one of the boys shoots next to a bully to scare them away and then the boys head home. Odd enough the parents that weren't told they were leaving didn't even notice

In conclusion Stand by Me is my favorite movie because it's funny and adventures. If you want to watch the movie the link to Netflix is here:https://www.netflix.com/us/

Should fans be so Attached to thier teams? Blog #3 (SSTR)

Should Fans be so Attached to Their Teams? Blog #3 (SSTR)

First of all I believe that there is such a point as to when fans are too attached. Like if there is rioting or any physical harm. But if an actor denies a movie deal for wearing a hat, just leave him alone that is his own choice. I personally wouldn’t wear any of my rival team’s hats!

About denying the movie deal, Ben Affleck turned down a movie deal because the director wanted him to wear a Yankees hat, but he refused because he is a Red Sox fan. Here is the link for the article: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/yankees/red-sox-fan-ben-affleck-refused-wear-yankees-hat-girl-article-1.1961699. Affleck said “…I will not wear a Yankees hat.’’ But the funny thing is that he and the director compromised; now Affleck has to wear a NY Mets hat. If I was him I wouldn’t wear a Mets hat either to be honest.

            I am a fan of Lakers, Angels, and Packers fan I would not wear any of their rivals hats at all. I think most fans are harmless but then you get though dumb fans who like to be too crazy and get themselves in trouble. Me I am a fan who lives with their loses or bad events that happen to my teams and do a little smack talk along the way ( just as most sport fans would do anyway).            Now being a ban wagon is totally different, it is pretty much saying that you only like the team because they win and that is not being a fan! 

These are fans being normal.

 In conclusion I think that Ben Affleck’s compromise was not really helpful to the fan aspect of it but oh well. Also don’t be afraid to go to a concert or sport event because overly crazy fans get sent out of the stadium.

Basketball PB #2

Basketball!!(PB)#2

Basketball is my emotion reliever. When I’m mad I play, when I’m happy, and stressed. Basketball is my everything, the facts, the positions, the players, the shoes, and especially the teams. I don’t know what I would do without it. Kobe Bryant is my favorite player for many reasons. He has the best fade than anyone.http://youtu.be/lk5o2PK76hs. He also makes the greatest shoes.

  

 These are the Kobe 9 Elites with the Laker edition color way.

My favorite team is definitely the Lakers they have a great color way, have a great team, and they have 16 NBA championships. The Lakers are the 2^nd winningest team next to their rivals the Boston Celtics. They have had some iconic players such as, Wilt Chamberlain, Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, and Jerry West all are in the Hall of fame or going to be. Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant won three straight NBA titles together before Shaq left.

I have played and liked basketball since I was 9. I remember watching my first game, it was Lakers vs. Celtics and of course the Lakers won, since then I got hooked and it stuck. One day Trevor and I were doing trick shots, Trevor gave me the ball and I went behind the hoop like 3 feet way, shot it while it lofted over the backboard and sank in the basket, Trevor was looking at me like a pro!!

Trevor and I have played many games together as we went on and played more we have grown a bond that couldn’t have been built without Basketball. We sometimes make our own plays and pretend that its 5 seconds left in the quarter down by one. Basketball overall is a great sport it creates bonds, happiness, and most of all great memories that I will always remember.

Selfie Fail! (CRR)

Selfie Fail! (CRR)

This Is Breanna Mitchell she took a selfie at the Auschwitz concentration camp.  Breanna made two mistakes in this picture. One she put a blushy face emoji in the title. Two she is smiling in the photo. But before anyone should criticize, READ THE ARTICLE. I criticized before I read and was totally wrong. The way I felt as I say this photo was you are smiling in a place with such a bad history and then you are pretty much showing ha ha! I’m alive and you’re dead. The concentration camp was a place where the people who worked survived and the ones who didn’t or couldn’t were killed. This place is no joke at all!

Breanna though has a good point when she says this photo was for her dad who died one year ago. She says the Holocaust was his favorite part of history. The holocaust was her favorite part of history too, so that is why she is smiling. I would be exited to if I had gone to this memorial. Breanna didn’t mean any harm towards the Jewish race.

If I were Breanna Mitchell I wouldn’t have posted I’m famous y’all. I took that comment harshly because that is being snobby and rude. With that comment I think wow!  Your being mean to such a huge and bad part of our history. So I’m getting really confused she is backing it up with it’s for my dad then she brings it back with I’m famous y’all. This is not the right part to be rude or snobby to! The holocaust was a time were Hitler destroyed the political aspect as well as the physical and mental part of the time period. The Nazis took human hair and used them as socks for the inmates! As well as the clothes and shoes tooken away to. This just shows how terrible of a place those concentration camps were. So Breanna Mitchell stop taking controversial photos as well as other people it's not wanted, needed, or helpful.
