NFL Draft

Yesterday and today, i have watched the NLF draft closely. There are a lot of great players in the draft this year. The Steelers i think had a great first round with there picks. They got a good running back in Rashard Mendenhall and also in the early second round got a good wide reciever in Limus Sweet from Texas. This is not a typical Steeler draft that we are all used to. They are now goin for the more offensive threats then the typical defensive stoppers. I am really excited to see what these two rookies do in there careers in Pittsburgh.

Recently i have took the time to learn how to use microsoft frontpage. Before i took tech class, I had no idea what microsoft front page was. Now that i know what microsoft frontpage is i am able to create differant things such as a webpage. I am glad that i have become more aware of this application, as well as all the office applications. From Tech class i am now more aware and smarter using a computer then i ever was before.

I am amazed that you can watch baseball games live over the net. I am in Tech Pete right now , and our teacher has put up the games on the overhead. I can't believe the things you can do over the internet now. I am sitting here watching four differant games on the internet. Mlb t.v is a neat thing that they have on the internet now. I am curious to see if they have this online for all major sporting teams.

Powerpoints

I just currently finished my animated powerpoint quiz for Tech. I have to say I am pretty proud of myself. I am the type of person that is so computer illiterate. Before I took this class I was only able to serf the net and dowload music. I am glad that i took the time to sit down and do these projects the best I can. I now know how to make so many differant things on the internet, and it feels good to know how to do all these things.

Zune

I just got a Zune music player. They are a product made by Microsoft. I like it better then my nano. The zune has more features then i pods. However I have one of the older versions of the Zune, it is a little bit bigger and not really built for running with. I only listen to my music player walking around campus, and wherever else I walk because I have no car, so the Zune works out perfectly for me.

Davidson- Stephon Curry

On Friday I was watching Davidson University play Wisconsin University. I thought that they were going to dominate Davidson and Stephon Curry was going to be overpowered by the Big Ten defense of Wisonsin. Stephon Curry is an unbelieveable player. He always manages to create space enough to get his jumpshot off. He is the smartest player without the ball in the NCAA. From being a coaches son and always being preached on moving without the ball, the best player to watch is Stephon Curry. I hope that he keeps up his tear through the tournament and gets Davidson a Final Four appearance because he deserves it.

Heart rate monitors are used alot in physical education classes now a days. I had just had a lecture with a new teacher at erie mcdowell and she said that many phys ed classes are starting to use heart rate monitors to get kids grades. I am not sure if that is a fair thing to do. Most athletes have to out work every student in the class to get the same grade as a person that is not in good physical shape, though in ways i beleive that it is a good way to grade students. I think that they should make differant rules and goals for students that are in differant physical shape.
