Entry #1 Blogs!!!!!

Entry #1 Blogs!!!!!!!!

When it comes to me and writing i dont ever think of something like blogging. I usually think of the typical 2 to 3 page papers that are assigned and due about a week after they are assigned. As of right now i am not a huge fan of this whole blog thing and i hope that changes because i would really like to better understand this thing.

Before being placed in this class i had no clue what a blog was. Ive heard about a blog but was never interested in actually going and looking up blogs because i found them pointless. Over these past couple of weeks in this class though i have actually came across some interesting things about blogs. such as there are many different types out there like cooking,sports,fitness,individual there are so many and they can actually be interesting. 

Seeing that my life resolves around school and basketball i came across a blog i found very interesting since i am a college athlete i needed to learn how to stay focused on school and sports at the same time. This blog actually breaks down everything it takes for coaches to recruit you to their school.
 (https://myathleticprofile.wordpress.com/tag/college-basketball-coaches/)The coaches who post on this blog actually give a list of things they are expecting out of their athletes both on and off the court. Dont get me wrong just being able to play at a junior college is a goal for most people but for me playing at the D1 level is a dream of mine. 

A blog i disliked was http://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/blog/index.php/basketball-tips-how-to-get-a-basketball-scholarship/ This blog basically is giving false staments on how kids should do to earn a scholarship. Not every kid has to play for a summer team in order to make their dream a reality. Yes it is best if you do for the exposer but you dont absolutely have to. A fun fact for people i had alot of teamtes on my team who never plaed AAU and where still able to find a home so club ball isnt that important.
