Day three

10/7/2010
I think one thing I will try to do is tell you two about what's going on in the world and how I see it so if you do read this stuff, you might get a little insight to what your dad is thinking. I am sure I won't be the best at explaining everything but I know by the time either of you may read this you can just "google it". Now that I think about it, it probably wont' even be google that you use to look things up. For that matter, it may be something different than the internet.
So... with that I know I am not that well versed in politics and internationl world affairs but I do know a little about sports. I will tell you two about politics etc when I can though.
Couple things going on in sports currently. Baseball playoffs are heating up. Roy Halladay from the Phillies pitched a no hitter last night. Big deal with that is it was his first start in a post season game. Pretty cool feeling he must have huh? Basketball pre season has started. "The big three" in Miami is all the talk. Lebron James, Chris Bosch, and Duane Wade are supposed to lead the Miami Heat to the finals. One game in and Wade is already injured. WE will see what happens as the season rolls on. Huge trade in football yesterday. The patriots traded their star reciever to the Vikings. Randy Moss is now playing with Bret Favre. That is good for dad. I like Bret Favre. I like anyone who is my age (40) and can compete at the highest level of any sport and be effective. But..... the biggest thing in sports to me is always cycling. Lst years tour de france winner has been caught doping which means he took performance enhancing drugs. Alberto Contador is actually being investigated for two infractions. There were traces of clenbeuterol in his blood and now authorities are saying that he may have done blood transfusions as well. Even though Contador is not one of my favorite riders, it still makes me very sad that these riders have to cheat to win. I am sure I will write one day in detail my thoughts on cheating but for now I will just tell you it is no way to win. When people cheat to win, they are not really winning at all. The playing field should always be equal. There are many different forms of cheating and I promise you both. It is no way to win.
Mommy is still not quite feeling that great. Jagger you are gonna be a big boy. I think pretty active and full of life too!!! Can't wait till you get here. I think its gonna be sooner than later!
Booger, you had another rehearsal last night for my conference at work. I got a little nervous feeling last night as we were going through the motions. Now that I am gonna be on stage with you gives me a little uneasy feeling. Luckily I don't have to say anything! ha ha. Walking out on the stage with over 1300 people in the audience is a little nerve racking. I know you are gonna do great though. We practiced smiling and waving and you were doing awesome!!
Love you both. Dad.
