What About the old english men

        As you can see in this link that they did not add Simon Cowell to the list for being the most meanest person of all times except for Gordon Ramsay he is meaner than Simon Cowell. I think maybe it is just old men that are English . well anyway nobody would want their kid mean and rude like  Gordon and Simon. but I don't know what is wrong with honey boo boo I mean she is just a little girl who wants to be in a pageant nothing is wrong with that ,and nothing is wrong with squidward he has been mean for so long and they just now notice. Now one show I do disagree with is keeping up with kardashians there is a lot of cursing and some times the don't bleep it . The rest of the shows I do agree with.

Eric: From That's 70's Show should be included on the list.

Topher Grace, also known as Eric Foreman in a popular show called That's 70s Show should also be on this list. In that 70's show he is usually seen thinking of sexually explicit things, which may reflect on teens more than kids, and is usually one who likes to use pot. He shows that even if you do pot you may not get in trouble and that it doesn't do much in most episodes. He also is seen being very perverted to his girl friend Donna.

These things make him a very bad role model for children. He also has a half caring, half difficult home with a father and sister the pick on him all the time. But his mother is a caring a nurturing person which is displayed in many episodes. But this nurturing is seen backfiring on her son because Eric seems to wimp out of a lot of things but does not have much negative outcomes, besides a scolding from his father.

His actions teach kids that if you don't stand up to challenges than the world will be fine, but it won't, the world  can only prosper with brave souls. He also shows that perverted thoughts won't get you into trouble, and with that I disagree, if you say anything concerning a sexual nature you could be find or even go to jail. And lastly he shows that drug abuse is fun, but it is not. It kills brain cells and dulls your mind. Is this what you want your kid to grow up believing? If not than we should put Eric Foreman on the Worst T.V. Role Models list.

Why Inst Stevie-o on the list?

Just think about it. Every thing Stevie-o does is just plain stupid. He is a prime example of a bad role model .

First he graduated .... clown school...After he began working at a flea market circus. just that and him being on TV is just miraculous.
Soon he discovered video and recording his less than sain adventures. 
The journey to becoming a TV star started with him hurting him self while skate bordering. A quote from Stevie him self "Soon it dawned on me I wasn't that great at skateboarding. So I put down the skateboard and just kept going with the camera." 

second is a aperence on wild boys and another show *cough* cuss word.
every act in wild boys more moronic than any of the acters and cartoons on this list. from a snapping turtle being attached to his derier to stapling the logo of the show on said area of his body 



















Stevie-o being lit on fire by Buddy at a bar

The 10 Worst TV Role Models

Are you trying to decide which TV role model is the best and the worst for your kids? Check out this article by Common Sense Media to see which are the worst role models, and use this reference to find the best TV role models.

Out of these 2 lists, I agree with the worst TV role models( I agree with everyone on the list). I agree because some of these characters are a bad influence on kids. Let's say Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner ALWAYS focus on themselves. They start minor arguments that don't make any sense. They worry so much about how they look. It seems like the show is all about their appearance. It doesn't matter how you look on the outside, it matters how you are in the inside. Another example is Gordon Ramsay, the famous chef and food critic. He always expects everything to be PERFECT. He just starts a storm when he sees something wrong. He is so mean! He should just give people a chance to show what they know( the people), not what HE knows. Finally, Squidward from the hit TV series Spongebob Squarepants. He is so selfish! He doesn't care about anybody but himself. When he is working at the Krusty Krab, he is just nasty to the customers. He is only happy when he gets something from someone else. You'd think that his music and art would redeem him, but he pursues them with such a pretentious and snobbish attitude. These television shows' characters are not that appropriate for our children these days.

Color Guard

 
 
 
 
                       So what is color guard is it a type of art or sport .For those of you who said a sport hurray those of you who said a art well not every thing with the word color doesn't mean it has to do with art .So I've been doing color guard ever since my brother told me about it .So first I started practicing with a stick but it was too heavy so then with a mop but it was to heavy on one side so I told my dad about it and he cut the mop part and it was perfect . I thought that I was the best just like any other little kid would think they are at something , but then my sister said I was good so then after that I kept on practicing until my sister got into high school and told me there was a color guard team like this link and and from that day I couldn't wait for high school and I still can't . Then in Junior High they had a thing called  access and I signed up for it and eventually got accepted and started in November (like really late since school since school started in August)and when they gave me this schedule to fill out the thing that stood out the most was color guard of course and I signed up for it but never got in and my dreams were crushed . I felt so sad that day and then met this girl at my table that was really nice and she told me her color guard story and said she had it in elementary and I thought to myself my school was cheep because they didn't have access they had day care (i know like for little kids and it cost $300 a month). After that day we became friends ,and now in access we are in the same colorguard team.

Hit the Dirt

 In baseball there may be a ball hit at a distance that you may not be able to reach while running but there is a way to get to it. In order to get to a ball hit that way you will have to dive. There are steps to follow so you can catch the ball on the dive and not get hurt.

The first step is anticipate where the ball will land. You also have to time when the ball will be passing you. These steps must be done quickly in order to decide whether or not you should dive. For example in the picture above make an observation  on whether or not he followed the following steps above. These steps are important when it comes to catching the ball.

The second step is once you have decided to dive then there is no backing out. If you start to dive just go with it. When players begin to dive then decide to back out they can get hurt. One tip is to keep your head up during the dive because if it is down you can easily get your face in the dirt or grass. That would also cause you to get your eye off the ball which could cause you to miss the ball.

The third and final step is don't be worried that the ball will hit you because it is not likely. With that mentality you will never dive for a ball. Most of the time it either gets passed you or you catch it.

In conclusion, in many baseball situations where you may have to dive for a ball. There is a procedure you must follow in order to catch the ball and not get hurt. If you follow these steps you will do exactly that.

basketball


            Basket ball is a competitive skill sport, if you got what it takes to play it all you`ll need Will be the know how to play it. Basketball is based on two teams trying to score point in one of two nets. Each net is located on opposite side of the court, which is divided in half. Points are scored by a team throwing the ball in the perspective team hoop at different distances. There are three different point groupings the first, and lowest in value is the, 1 point foul shot, the second is the 2 point shot and the last is the three point shot.
            There are many game modes to play on a basket ball court such as poison. Poison is played by at least 3 people. Each person gets a turn to throw a ball toward a hoop. If the player misses the next player needs to grab the ball before it bounces 3 times or they will be eliminated. If the player scores the shot they must grab it before it bounces three times or be eliminated, when they grab it they will try again and if they score three shot they get to bowl thee ball and whatever player it hits will be eliminated.
One time while I was playing poison me and my friends were playing like it was ping pong .boink bonk boink bonk over and over without stopping until the worst happened .The ball went over the gate!
“Oh no!”
“A cars coming !”
 WATCH OUT!”
The ball got ran over but it was ok it survived . But then a second car came and the ball got ran over again  Imagine getting ran over twice in the same road! The car squeezed the ball till the point of explosion until…..it popped out and landed on the side walk and was recovered by teachers.
“Woo”
“It didn't pop?”
“Were lucky”
So the game continued … until it went over again.

            Another game to play on a basket ball court is horse. Horse is played by taking turns. If a player makes a shot the next player will try to make a shot. If they miss they gain a letter. The first person to get all letters loses. This game can be played with any word.
             Make your own game modes to play outside on a court and Don’t forget that basket ball is a great exercise and improve many aspects of your heath so go out and play!
