It is also easily trainable due to its intelligence and strong desire to please its master. I once owned a golden retriever named Rory. She liked to try to jump up on the couch like she was a little puppy when she was actually weighed 85 pounds! Also, once when she was a puppy, she chewed up every one of my Dad’s bass boat electrical wires in one day-she was lucky to stay alive when my dad got home! When we threw a Frisbee for Rory, she was not good at bringing it back, or in one piece!
The hare is cocky and egotistical; he thinks he will win the race because he is faster. The tortoise is gentle and kind and believes he will win the race because he is smarter and wittier. They both start the race determined as ever to win, but the hare sees how slow the tortoise is and stops for a bite to eat and a few naps thinking he will surely beat the tortoise as he is so slow. All the while the tortoise keeps moving along, slow and steady. Eventually the finish line comes into view and the hare wakes up.
The cape crusader and the man of steel still remain in the limelight, because they are THE originals. While other heroes were still being dreamed up by some kid’s imagination, Superman and Batman were out kicking butt, and creating emotional attachment to every kid whose imagination ran wild. Those attachment span across generations of kid with dreams of powers beyond that of their very own. Superman and Batman have personality traits, and tools that make it possible to go up against impossible odds and win or at least defeat the threat each time, but this dog eat dog world where there can only be one on top, who is top dog? Clark Kent grew up not knowing who he really was.
Muhammad Ali is my hero because of the standard he set as an athlete, the pride he possesses and allocates, and because of the love he incorporates within his approach to life. Even as a young boy named Cassius Clay, Ali showed signs of impeccable dedication and a willingness to succeed. At age 12, Clay had his bike stolen and he was extremely displeased. He even found a policeman and said he was going to “whoop” whoever had stolen his bike. Whether by chance or by fate, this policeman, Joe Martin, turned out to be a youth boxing trainer and he took young Clay under his wing.
When I jumped on top of him, my knees on his chest, he couldn’t ask for anything better.” (Knowles 19) this quote shows just how much Finny enjoys physical activity and the playfulness of him, it also shows how he loves getting his friends involved in physical activities considering he was happy that he just got tackled. This is similar to me because I am always
I felt I had true friend in Barkley the years we spent together. I could tell him anything and we would always go play whenever I couldn’t play with friends or if I ever had any leisure time at home. He grew to be a good sized dog, with white, fluffy hair that went everywhere, and to this day is the friendliest dog I have ever met and always wanted to play. We named him Barkley because the two previous dogs my parents had before I was born, Jordan and Tyson, were named after the famous athletes of that time, and Charles Barkley was one of my parents’ favorite basketball players in that period, so the name was only fitting. Also, to
Rich is the man who, if only for a short time, feels the glory his body in peak condition, the bond of brothers, the sweet joy of victory and the agony of defeat. While the memories of such a time fade as a man grows older, the wisdom he gleans from the experience will echo throughout his life. So in honor of the opening of the football season, and the great lessons all men can learn from this great game, we’ve compiled a list of some of the most inspiring football locker room speeches from both film and real life. The speeches we chose are not only inspiring for men about to hit the field, they’re motivating for those men who wish to walk out the door each day to school or work, ready to take on the world.

Alex Stone Starting Where I Am Standing tall at 6”2, I am a 24 year old gentleman from New Jersey that loves Sports. When I say I love sports I more specifically mean that I am in love with Athletics. Growing up I had the rewarding opportunity of being taught the basics of life and how to be a man through playing sports and learning from my coaches about life and how to deal with different situations. Many of my friends who grew up without their fathers saw our coaches as father figures who were there for whatever you needed, not just to make you run a play on offense or coach first base. This allowed me to fall in love with everything that has to do with team sports as well as individual performance tests in sports.
