Six Flags

I went to six flags to celebrate my 12th birthday with my dad and three friends, Bryce, Danny and Tyler. I was looking forward to a day of complete fun.





First we stopped by Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch, that was when I was crowned the Buffalo Wild Wing Princess.





When we got to Six Flags we went on twister after we put our belongings in a locker. Twister was fun but they strap you in so tight after you can barely walk.





We took a picture with Batman and Wonder Woman. I'm the one on the right posing like Flash, Danny, the one in the yellow is posed like Superman, so is Tyler the one in the white, and Bryce, the one in the green, is posed like Green Lantern








Flashback was fun, it was worth the long wait, that was the reason that Bryce didn't go on, or was he scared?








I loved mind eraser, it's not not the best ride if you want a smooth ride, you feel some aches in the morning like I did.






Batman was awesome at night, it was very fast, i think our faces show that, luckly Tyler didn't go on, that would've made him fell more sick.






The day was even more fun than I had hoped on it being, I couldn't of thought of a better way to celebrate my 12th birthday.

TK Sports goes to ESPN the Weekend

TK Sportsnet went to ESPN the weekend in Orlando, Florida and had the chance to hang out with many of sports elite athletes. ESPN the weekend went on from February 28th to March 2nd and it was fantastic. The first night was ESPN opening night, there was an introduction and then a globe trotter game were Mike Golic had to dress up as Tinkerbell, ha! In my opinion that was the best night of the weekend. During the weekend there was a sports section at Hollywood studios in Disneyland where you were able to play many sports with no cost, it was very cool.

Child please

Chad Ochocinco was cool, when he was done getting the waitresses number, but he scored a touchdown in globe trotter football.





MR.Clutch



Mr.Clutch a.k.a Adam Vinatieri was my favorite kicker until he went to the team I hate the most team, the Colts, but he won the Patriots 2 super bowls, so I guess I still kinda like




Scotty
I got to take a picture with Michael Jordan's right-hand man, Scotty Pippen, a hall of famer, a tall hall of famer.








The Kick is Good

I was able to catch up with Superbowl champion kicker Garrett Hartley, the one who kicked the game winning kick against the vikings to win 31-28 and advance to the Superbowl.






Bruschi

I got to meet my favorite linebacker, but he kinda squished me.






Shoots and scores

Robert Horry is one of the best three shooters ever to play basketball, even though he looks more like the dunking type.






To the 20, to the 10, touchdown!

I met Stephen Jackson, its just not fair how such a good running back ends up on a bad team.





Jones-Drew

Maurice Jones-Drew is a good running back, but he's really small.



Bloody Ankle


Curt Schilling was one of the best pitchers of all time, and will go down as a hall of famer.

This was an experience TK Sportsnet won't forget, by the way I'm the one on the right, except for Mr. clutch, Horry, Stephen Jackson, and Jones-Drew

Monty and the Hornets


At 38 years of age, Monty Williams is the youngest head coach in the NBA, but I’m guessing the newly arrived X-and-O boss of the New Orleans Hornets is old enough to understand the facts of life.I think that this coach be a good addition to this Hornets team. He was a pretty good as an assistant coach and a player, I think he'll do fine in New Orleans.

Wade doesn't have wish list

Dwyane Wade insists he still hasn't started thinking about free agency. With four trials now settled in one swoop, the Miami Heat star says that's finally about to change. Before leaving a Miami courtroom Tuesday, moments after the settlements in a restaurant case and three others were announced, Wade told the Associated Press he has not put together his "wish list" for the off season, nor has he asked any other potential free agents about their plans

Farve is Back


Favre posted confirmation of the arthroscopic procedure on his personal website last Friday. He hasn't officially told the team he'll be back, but the vibe around the Vikings is strongly suggesting he will return. Offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said after Thursday's practice he wasn't surprised that Favre had surgery. But Bevell insisted his last conversation with the 40-year-old star was not related to football. I think that Brett Farve is crazy, and that Brett is hunting for a ring, and he won't leave without it.

President Obama is behind USA

The Steelers lose

Their $102 million quarterback isn’t around now, and he won’t play at least until October. The Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves in an unprecedented situation, preparing for a season that will open without their suspended star. This stinks for the Steelers because now that they lost Ben what are they going to do. Of course they have Brian Leftwich but his numbers weren't that good last year, the Steelers players really need to step up.

Argentina with the win

Two-time FIFA World Cup™ winners Argentina eased to a 5-0 victory over Canada in Buenos Aires in a morale-boosting performance ahead of departing to South Africa on Friday.
Even without the side's superstar Lionel Messi, who was rested and sat watching from the stands, the Argentinians had little trouble from one of the game's minnows as they cruised to a fifth successive victory this year, albeit three have come against second tier opposition.

Four Teams Remainig

The Lakers and the Suns battle for the Western Conference Championship, while the Magic and the Celtics battle for the Eastern conference. Honestly if the Celtics keep playing the way they're playing with everyone, except Paul Peirce, contributing to this team then they're bringing home the championship, but it'll definitely be the Celtics v.s the Lakers in the finals.

Hurney couldn't strike a deal, however, and when Arizona traded up to the 47th slot -- one pick ahead of the Panthers -- Hurney acknowledged he was crushed, sure the Cardinals were going to take him.
