The World Cup
THE WORLD CUP Ow! I said as Eric slide tackled me. We were playing a two vs. two game and max was on my team while James was on Eric's team. "Free kick" I said, "fine" said Eric as I trotted over to retrieve the ball. When I set the Ball down James stood right in front of it. "Get out of the way James" Max said. Finally James got out of the way and I kicked the ball. It took a slight deflection and went into the dump. "Not again" I said as I walked over to look in the dump for the ball. As we walked over Eric had a suggestion "How about the next time we play we play away from the dump'. "Okay" I said. As we climbed the dumpster wall James spotted something shiny "Look over there guys" he said. When we got to the top we all forgot about the soccer ball and dove in for the shiny piece of paper I got there first and read it aloud it read
Dear
Reader,
Look in the
Dumpster and you
Will find a fresh from the
Market piece of lime. Cut it open
And you will see a treasure map to the
South African tree. Look at the top of the tree
And you will see a treasure chest that's made from
The best.
"Let's follow these rules" Max said. 'I wonder what's in that treasure chest" said Eric. " So what are we waiting for lets get going we all said at once. As we started digging in the dump for the lime. James spotted it first. "I found it guys" as he gouged into it with his mouth since we didn't have a knife "mm nice and juicy' he said. Here's the treasure map.
First run to LAX aka. Los Angeles Airport.
Second tell the American Airlines ticket collector that Billy sent you here she will know what your talking about. Third hop on the plane and you should arrive in less that 12 hours. Fourth get off the plane and there should be a guy name Wayne waiting to take you to your hotel room. Fifth in your hotel room under the bed there's a treasure chest. There your treasure awaits!!!!
" If my calculations are correct the LAX is five minutes from here" said Max. So on we went

    Sports have come a long way since basketball was played with milk crates and flat balls in the alleys of the poor and rich alike. One may ask, why should I be concerned with the senseless sweating and hours of practice of those who enjoy sports? The answer is one that will open your eyes to the fulfillment sports can bring whether recreational or competitive. Sport activities offer a variety of lifelong qualities and provide those who participate a sense of happiness like no other. Jennie Yabroff the author of “In Defense of Cheering”sheds light to her audience on why Cheering should be taken as seriously as any other sport. In contrast Felisa Rogers the author of “How I Learned to Love Football” tells a story of how she once despised the great American game of football to how she grew ecstatic about its very nature. Both women have admiration for their respective sports and want to encourage others to share their love of sports through their use of ethos and pathos, with pathos being more effective.…
