  2. 1. Baseball. It is a game that leads to conversation, learning, analysis and thought and that is just between pitches.

    2. Ricky Weeks works within the community both in Milwaukee and Florida, developing scholarships for kids to go to college, working with local little league, and asking his team and the media not to discuss it.

    3. When I was a kid, I saved everything I had to buy a Super Nintendo Entertainment System and a few games for my Dad for Christmas, who loved games as much as I did. Little did I know, he got me one too.

    4. Frankfurt, Germany. I was born there and have always wanted to go back to visit the areas that my parents have discussed so many times with me.

    5. I will venture a guess and say the Vikings, but just because I think your reaction will be funny. :-)

  3. 1. College Basketball - it still feels like a purer version of the game and I adore the pace. March Madness is my absolute favorite time of the year - win and you go on, lose and you're done. The emotions and drama and wonderful and the games are always great to watch.

    2. I don't really have a favorite sports player - it changes from year to year. I have tremendous respect and admiration for Coach K (Duke Men's Basketball head coach). He is a classy human being, his players play hard and finish school, and he continues to coach for the love of the game.

    3. Computer

    4. I would like to travel Europe and see the sights there - I think the history is fascinating and it would be cool to see it all.

    5. Not really sure right now - haven't been paying close attention to it.

  4. 1. Whats your favorite sport and why.
    Baseball, because of its history

    2. Who is your favorite sports player and why.
    I grew up in Northern California, and Will Clark was the man for the San Francisco Giants when I was about six. To this day, he remains my sentimental favorite. Other athletes close to my heart include Steve Prefontaine, Chris Webber, and Jerry Rice, among many others.

    3. HWay is the most expensive thing you've with your own money.
    I spent about $2,500 five years ago to backpack through Europe for a few weeks with my two best friends. Absolutely worth it.

    4. If you could go any place in the world where would it be and why do you want to go there
    Great question. I could probably do a top 10 list of places I'd like to go and spend a week or two exploring, from Costa Rica to Hungary to Bhutan. At the top of my list, though, is England, a place I want to visit for sentimental reasons. My five-year-old nephew and his mom live there.

    5. Who do you think us going to win the superbowl and why
    Probably not my Niners....

  5. 1. I like baseball and football. I love to follow baseball and get into all the statistics and history, but I'd rather watch a football game.
    2. I've always admired Peyton Manning because he's amazingly gifted and driven, but he also has a fun side. That said, I hate his team :)
    3. A car.
    4. I would like to go back to Iceland. I was there once on a stopover on the way to England, and it seemed really cool.
    5. I think it's either going to be the Jets or the Ravens. Great defenses, and ball-control offenses that don't make too many mistakes.

  6. 1. Baseball, my Dad taught me to love it

  7. 1. Hockey. I grew up watching and playing the sport and I continue doing that even as an adult.

  8. 1. Whats your favorite sport and why.
    baseball is my favorite sport and always has been. I played baseball for over 20 years and met so many wonderful people. The game has been very good to me and opened up so many opportunities in my life.

    2. Who is your favorite sports player and why.
    I have to go all the way back to the 1930s and 1940s and pick someone named Lefty Brewer. He never played in the major leagues because just before he joined the Washington Senators baseball team he entered military service and was with the US Army during World War II. sadly, Lefty was killed on D-Day June 6, 1944.

    3. HWay is the most expensive thing you've with your own money.
    I guess my car is the most expensive thing.

    4. If you could go any place in the world where would it be and why do you want to go there
    I would love to go to Egypt to see the pyramids. They fascinate me.

    5. Who do you think us going to win the superbowl and why
    Because I live in Scotland I don't have a hometown team, but I was in New Orleans a couple of years ago and would love to see the Saints win the Super Bowl.

    3. I bought some new furniture a few months ago, and it was well-worth it!
    4. Oh, I would love to go to many places. I would love to see Rome and its beautiful architecture.
    5. I have no idea!

  13. 1. Baseball will always be a favorite. So much can happen with just a bat and a ball!
    2. Adam Wainwright is a great player, tough competitor, strong Christian and amazing teammate. It doesn't get much better in my book!
    3. Probably my laptop, although I did help pay for my car.
    4. I want to visit France. You can see amazing architecture, breath-taking mountains and hear a beautiful language!
    5. It's too early to predict the Super Bowl. I can't even predict the World Series!

  14. 1. What's your favorite sport and why.

    Baseball is my favorite sport. It's the only sport played practically everyday during the summer and I consider baseball a more elegant game than sports like football or hockey. It's also usually the first sport fathers share with their son's (or daughter's).

    2. Who is your favorite sports player and why.

    My favorite sports player for the last 10 years has been Derek Jeter. Even though I am a big Mets fan, Derek Jeter was never the best shortstop at his position but he played the hardest and proved that baseball is 90% mental and 10% physical.

    3. HWay is the most expensive thing you've with your own money.

    The most expensive thing I have done is get a college education and that I consider an investment that will pay me back.

    4. If you could go any place in the world where would it be and why do you want to go there

    Egypt - I would like to see the Great Pyramid of Giza. If your interested in Math you will find the Pyramids fascinating. It is also said that the great pyramid is the only manmade object that can be seen from the moon.

    5. Who do you think us going to win the superbowl and why

    I'm not a big football fan but I root for the NY Jets. They seem to have a good team this year so they may have a chance.

  16. 1- Football. Close call between baseball and football, but if I could only watch one sport forever, I think it'd be football.

    2- Albert Pujols. He never doesn't make memories in big moments.

    3- Car. Even though the bank owns it, I get to pay the bank every month to use it.

    4- Australia. Looks awesome on TV? The accents? I just want to see it for myself.

    5- Colts? I guess I'll take Peyton Manning... but I feel no confidence in this pick. It's anyone's year.

  17. > Favorite Sport: Baseball. The history behind the game. The fact that no game is like any other. And I enjoy the hot summer days.
    > My favorite sports player is (now) Danny Amendola. He puts effort into EVERYTHING and has not stop energy.
    > I'm not sure which was more expensive: My Ipod touch or my cell phone
    > I'd want to go anywhere warm. A deserted island ( with internet connection ).
    > I want to say that the Rams will win the SB, but I find that hard for them to do. I like ATL, NYJ, BAL, and PIT, but long analysis short, I'll say PIT.
