First Blog!

Hey y'all! My name is Sarah and I love sports! I am an aspiring sports broadcast journalist so I decided to share my views with the world.....best to get a headstart. So first my favorite teams (you will notice I play a bit of favoritism when it comes to them) :
NCAA FOOTBALL
-Oklahoma Sooners
NFL
-St. Louis Rams
-Dallas Cowboys
NCAA BASKETBALL
-Oklahoma Sooners
NBA
-San Antonio Spurs
-Oklahoma City Thunder
MLB
-St. Louis Cardinals

I guess I have a mild variety but I definately have my teams and support them all the way! But I mostly love football, it is easily my favorite sport. Basketball and Baseball are really only interesting at the end of the season and right before play offs......don't try to deny it, you know it's the truth!

So today I was reading Fox Sports News and I discovered the writing of Jason Whitlock who I think is a great reporter after reading some of his pieces. I was especially intrigued by an article he did on Rashard Mendenhall of the Pittsburgh Steelers. People are really giving Mendenhall a lot of grief for his tweets he put after but I feel like he is just as entitled to say how he feels (If you read the article I post below you will read the full story, I'll let Jason Whitlock say it, he does it better).

I was also pleased to read on Fox Sports News that they consider Bob Stoops of the Oklahoma Sooners to be the 2nd best college football coach and Mack Brown of Texas was number 5 and Les Miles of Lousiana State University (formerly Oklahoma State University) is number 9!! Although to me I feel like Stoops should be number 1 but I accept that they believe Nick Saban of Alabama is the best. I agree, Saban is an amazing coach but Stoops is BETTER but that's just my opinion. I do love being ranked above Mack Brown and Les Miles though! :)

As most of you know the Lakers are down in their series with the Mavericks 3-0 and no NBA team has ever come back to win their series when they are down by 3. It's only happend in the MLB in 2004 with the Red Sox and a lot of NHL teams so we may as well see the Lakers as WELL DONE. I hope everyone is pleased to know the Thunder are tied in their series with the Grizzlies, I feel like the Thunder will win it all. THUNDER UP!

Until next time,

The Aspiring Sports Reporter, Sarah!
