Hockey season is still far away but that doesn't mean you can't have fun waiting for it to come.1. If you don't have a blog you can start one and add entries about the latest off-season news.2. Play street hockey and pretend you are one of the NHL teams.3. If you have a vidio game on hockey, PLAY IT! Those are some ways you can do it. If you have others please let me know.

I cant wait until the 2006 NFL Season starts because Football is one of my favorite sports. Also because it is exciting to see who will make the pro bowl and the Super Bowl. But the downside is when Football comes school comes :-(. Anyway I hope you will enjoy the season as much as I will.

I play baseball in a league called HAJBA. It stands for Howell A Jr. Baseball Association. My baseball team and i got into the play offs at the beginning of July. Our first game we won on a walk off double thanks to our teammate Sam. Our next game we won do to end of regulation. (we on  play 2 1/2 in six innings) We then got the by week to the finals. We lost that game 11-10 do to bad fielding. We got second place in the finals so we were just happy to get that far. Oh and I almost forgot, we got a trophy for finishing second in our regular season.

On Sunday Italy defeated France in a shoot out to be the 2006 World Cup Champions! The whole game was full of excitement and energy. Although France lost to Italy they should keep their heads up high for trying their hardest and making it so far in the World Cup. But for the Italians they probably feel like their soccer team rules the world. My brother Matt also put an entry on his blog so be sure to check it out.
