Sorry guys (Franklin Elementary)
Sorry guys it took me so long to get these answers back to you, its been a little busy out here. We just finished playing 5 games in seven days, winning 4 of the 5. Even though we were on the road for 5 days we are still responsible for doing school work and of course practice. Keep the questions coming and I'll try and not to take so long with a response. Remember to keep working hard in class, because life is so hard without a good education, listen to your parents because you need their guidance and keep dreaming, no dream is to big. If you can dream it you can make it happen for yourself if you are willing to work hard for it.
If you see me on TV let me know how I look.
1. When is your first game and who is it against?
Our first game was against Hartford on Saturday, November T17th at Freedom Hall. I was so excited about finally getting the season started and competing against another team.
2. What makes this year so important to your career?
We'll I think when you have a heart for the game every year is important. Any great player would want to look back and say they had a great career. So I would say for me it's important to be ready from start to finish. Even though there are times when you might start out slow but end up strong. I believe that I finished my previous season strong so I would like to pick-up where I left off and just get better as I go. That would be a great impact on my career and my team.
3. Do you believe that athletes should be given special treatment?
I do not believe that athletes should get special treatment, we are no different than any body else.
4. What is the best stadium that you played in other than Louisville?
The best stadium that I played in besides Freedom Hall would have to be Madison Square Garden. So many great things has happene in the Garden and I always wanted to get a chance to play there and when I finally did it was a great feeling I cannot explain.
I want to thank all of you for taking your time out and visiting my blog. Thanks again hope to see you all soon.
