I didn't get my height from my heritage

This is Vladimir Mihalik and he plays hockey for Tampa bay and he is Slovakian. He's also very tall! I just can't believe this! All these Slovaks tall!! I found at least 3 Slovaks that 6 foot 7! So not fair I'm only 5 foot 3! But any way let's just leave at people in Slovakia are tall I am not

See Slovakians can be pretty

This is Michaela Kocianova she is a Slovakian supermodel with Victoria secrets, she is gorgeous and has done other work. I wanted to post this to show people from other cultures can be amazingly beautiful!! So please Look her up

What My grandpa passed down to me

My Grandpa loves the braves and so growing up I was raised in a family of braves fans. I became one at some point and my 1st favorite player was Chipper Jones and my grandpa actually started to call me chipper. I'm currently working on a profile post about chipper. I never really liked being called chipper because I didn't know what it meant or why he called me that. I then discovered why. He was calling me it because he may have saw a lot of him in me which could be a good thing or a bad thing, Chipper continues to be my nickname and my favorite player. I'm still grandpa's little girl!

Star player: Alex Burmistrov

Well this is a 1st! Lil' baby Burmi is a rookie and has had 2 star player blogs! heck I don't think any player has had 2! Because of me figure out people way before hand these honors have been delayed! I've been honoring people weeks after they deserve it sometimes monthes so I'm glad I may be catching up here soon. But any way on october 29 baby burmi scored his 1st goal in the NHL! I was in tears watching on TV as baby had the sweetest expression on his face. Chris Thorburn hugged him and you could just tell that Chris was just as proud as everyone who had wittnessed that goal. He even got a standing O so I'm honored to honor this young man as star player!!

American

 The last post made me think about this song by Dave Matthews band, for whatever reason. But so yeah enjoy!

American Baby

If these walls came crumblin' down
Fell so hard, to make us lose our faith
From what's left you'd figure it out
Still make lemonade taste like a sunny day

Stay, beautiful baby
I hope you
Stay, American baby
American baby

Nobody's laughing now
God's grace lost and the devil is proud
But I've been walking for a thousand miles
One last time, I could see you smile

I (I) hold (hold) on (on) to you
You bring me hope, I'll see you soon
And if I don't see you
I'm afraid we've lost the way

Stay, beautiful baby
I hope you
Stay, American baby
American baby

I (I) hold (hold) on (on) to you
You lift me up and always will
I see you in life
Hope I don't get left behind

I (I) hold (hold) on (on) to you
You bring me hope, I'll see you soon
And if I don't see you
I'm afraid we've lost the way

Stay, beautiful baby
I hope you
Stay, American baby
I hope you
Stay, beautiful baby
I hope you
Stay, American baby
American baby
Nobody's laughing now
But you could always make me laugh out loud

Drawing Inspiration from a friend

My friend Austin Carty blogs and he often talks about his grandpa. We have something in common, our Grandpas meant something to us but Austin knew both of his Grandpas, I knew only one of mine. But that's ok My grandpa means the world to me, I'm his little girl and he treats me like a princess! I'm his 1st granddaughter so I get anything I ask, I have him wrapped around my finger! So I was looking at Austin's blog and noticed he posted something about his hero and I figure I should start writing about people who meant something to me or the people I look up to. I'll start that soon Y'all. I already wrote about coach Godfree and Jim Craig but more will follow.

My message to boris

Vážení Boris,
Cnie sa mi po stretnutí s Vami na Thrasher praxi. Tiež som miss som ťa videl, keď som sledovať zápasy v televízii. Sledoval som jeden s Rachel a povedal som: "Kde je Bo-bo?" Uvedomil som si, čo som povedal a zavesil hlavou. Rachel trela chrbát a povedal: "Bo-bo pravdepodobne chýbať too.What je niečo roztomilý urobil?" Usmial som sa a povedal: "Dostal všetci nadšení a šťastný cez Hullusky" Začala sa smiať "Samozrejme, že je to chlap, milujú jedlo a ženy!" Pozrel som sa na ňu a povedal: "Vieš, čo mi chýba najviac? Mal najlepšie úsmev vôbec, a keď ma uvidel a vedel, že som tam bol by som vidieť ten úsmev. Boris mal slovenskú náladu, takže keď som mu úsmev to robilo mi to radosť." Rachel mi dal "Chudáčik" vzhľad. Chýba mi váš úsmev a štýl hrania, ale sme všetci dúfať, že Don a Rick prísť k rozumu a tam vidieť to, čo pustiť! Zostať silné a môžeme čoskoro sa uvidíme! We need more Slovaks in Georgia so come back soon
 Vo viere,Christina

What's wrong? Well I'll tell you

Every game day I'm happy then I look at my MA notebook and see Boris' Smiling face and I become saddened by the fact that while I get to see Zach Bogosian play, Boris won't be there to start a fight. I miss Boris terribly when I went to see him one time we had a few people laughing. I was standing by Boris and we were both moving our nose like they were itchy then when Boris was done talking to the other fan I tugged at his jersey "Bo-Bo?" He looks and smiles "hi little one how are you?" I smiled I loved being his little one it made me feel special and loved. He did have a good attitude about being on waivers though here's what he told the AJC:

 “I have been preparing for the last month or so,” Valabik told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "Professionally, I know it’s part of the game. It’s also tough knowing that people I respect, the coaches, [GM] Rick Dudley, didn’t think I could play there. Whatever happens, happens. If some team picks me up, I will look forward to a second chance. I feel like I owe a lot to Atlanta for drafting me. I had hoped to win a Stanley Cup here. There were 24 guys on the roster and they could only have 23. I would like to get picked up because that means somebody wants you,I hope a lot of people realize that I’m still young and I can  play. … If no team claims me I will go to Chicago and work on my game. I have some work to do, but mostly I need to play. For me, it’s more about getting the chance to play and building my confidence. The mental part of the game is so huge for me. I know when I’m on top of my game I can be very successful.”

Thankfully he's playing with the wolves but I still miss him. It breaks my heart to read his statement and see lines like "I'm still young and I can play......The people I RESPECTED didn't think I could play there." The people he respected didn't want him how heart breaking is that. Rick and Don I hope you jerks are happy!! You just lost respect from me and what is looks like is that you just lost respect from Boris!  To Boris I hope you score some goals to show them what they let go!!

Johnny weir too girly?

I love watching figure skating but there was something or actually someone who bothered me! His name? Johnny weir. Yes the feminine Johnny Weir. To be fair he is in a sport traditionally seen as a "girl sport" but there is a good amount of class and femininity that a guy can have with out being Johnny Weir!! Who did I cheer for? Evan Lysacek! Of course! He's talented, cute, charming and not creepy feminine like Johnny. And may we not forget that Evan won the gold against a Russian then had to dance with one at dancing with the stars!! So is Johnny too girly? You tell me I think he is.

Writting

Sorry I haven't been writing a lot of news or writing once a week or once every so often I have a few things coming up and I'm re inviting a few friends to write some stuff on here and if you want to see someone or something featured let me know. My audience is also starting to dwindle which makes me sad! Come back guys it'll get better

Sidney VS Bogi

If you've been a long time reader to my blog, bless your heart and thank you, you know that I love my thrashers and Zach Bogosian. You also know that I like Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins. This a problem because tonight I'll be watching the pens take on my thrashers the problem is who do I cheer for?? Well I'm looking at  talent, attitude and how the treat fans. That's just during or before the game but after I can be happy for whoever wins but let's look what I'm looking at before and during the game. Let's start with talent, I haven't watched a whole lot of games for Sidney but I have watched a lot of thrasher hockey. I think by the numbers Sid out shoots bogi by a long shot. So in talent they're equal but in shooting sid wins. Attitude on the other hand bogi wins! Zach is much less of the crying/complaining type and Sid hits hard then cries when he gets hard! makes no sense!! But sid is really good with fans and his team mates but so is bogi. So in all reality it's a tie!! so I have son clue who I'll root for I think I'll just be happy to watch the game!

That goal!

Well while Alex Burmistrov was off scoring his 2nd goal I was still amazed by his 1st goal! I watched it so many times and I think I know it inside and out!! I'm so proud of this young man and I wish so bad I was there to see it in person! I will come home for thanksgiving and I'll be able to see that sweet smile. That's another thing that makes these goals by all these youngsters so sweet is that their smiles say it all they tell the whole truth and their expressions are honest and are so precious and joyful. The expressions are worth their weight in pure gold and are worth all the hard work these kids put into their game. I love Alex's little smile and hope to see it more often

Don't let the jersey number fool you he's number one in my heart

Now Matt Ryan is the starting quarterback for the Falcons and wears #2 but even though I hadn't really watched the games this season he's the #1 quarterback in my heart! Matty seems like such a sweet guy from day one I liked his attitude better than Michael Vick's even though Michael is very talented. Matt is the baby faced 6 foot 4 224 pound quarterback who was born on May 17, 1985 in Exton, Pennsylvania. Before Boston college he
attended the William Penn Charter School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he was a three-year starter for coach Brian McCloskey, earned All-East honors from Larunt Lemming Prep Football Report and captured All-Southeastern Pennsylvania accolades as a senior quarterback in addition to receiving All-City first-team honors in 2002 and second-team recognition in 2001.  A three-time All-League selection, he threw for more than 1,300 yards with 9 touchdowns as a senior, finishing his career by completing more than 52 percent of his pass attempts during all three seasons at the helm.He also played basketball and baseball while in high school and was named captain of all three teams his senior year. He was quarterback of the football team in 2002, played small forward on the basketball team, and was a pitcher and a shortstop on the baseball team.He was Boston College's starter from 2005 to 2007, leading them to three bowl victories and a 25-7 record in 32 starts.He  is fifth all-time in school history in passing yards and in pass completions.He also earned MVP honors at the 2005 MPC Computers Bowl and in 2007, Matty led his team to an ACC Atlantic Division championship and was named ACC Player of the Year. But in the 2004 season he  was named backup due to an injury to Quinton Porter and saw his first action on October 2, 2004 against the UMass Minutemen. Matt was also a good student, being  awarded the 2004 Freshman Male Scholar-Athlete award that same year.

He entered the 2008 season competing against former starter Chris Redman for the Falcons' starting quarterback position.On August 24, Ryan was named the starting quarterback for the September 7 regular season opener against the Detroit Lions becoming the first rookie quarterback to start a season for the Falcons since Steve Bartkowski in 1975. On October 30, Ryan was honored as the NFC Rookie of the Month for October following an impressive string of games in which he led the Falcons to a 2–1 record. Ryan became the first player in Atlanta Falcons franchise history to be awarded this honor.

Matty  is also part of the Falcons online reading program “Read with a Falcon”. Best of luck Matty

Retro bio:buzz schneider

Buzz had the unique honor 20 years after the miracle on ice to be played by his son Billy in the Disney film Miracle. But this blog is not about Buzz's son it's about the man and his story that his son protrayed 20 years later. Finding pictures of this guy was harder than finding info on him. It's kinda weird but what is important is what brought Buzz to that moment? What has he done after that day? Well William "Buzz" Schneider was born on September 14, 1954 in Grand Rapids, Minnesota but grew up in  Babbitt, Minnesota. He played hockey, baseball and football. He went to the University of Minnesota where he played for Herb Brooks and won the1974 NCAA hockey championship. He later was drafted

98th overall in the 1974 NHL Entry Draft by the Pittsburgh Penguins and no. 73 overall in the 1974 WHA draft by the Minnesota Fighting Saints. Buzz played for the United States National Team in 1974-76 as well as being a member of the US team at the 1974, 1975 and 1976 Ice Hockey World Championship tournaments as well as the 1976 Olympic team. He turned pro after the 1974-76 National team. He played in a variety of minor leagues before playing four games for the Birmingham Bulls of the WHA during the 1976-77 season. After the end of the WHA season, he returned to play for the US national team at the 1977 Ice Hockey World Championship tournament in Vienna. Schneider returned to the minor leagues in 1977-78. He played two seasons in the International Hockey League before regaining his amateur status to play in the 1980 Olympics.During the 1979-80 season, the left wing played 62 games for the National team scoring 27 goals. During the  run in the Olympics, he scored five goals and  three assists in seven games going for that miracle and the gold medal. Schneider played on the Olympic team's top-scoring Iron Rangers or Conehead line with John Harrington and Mark Pavelich.After the Olympics he played in Bern, Switzerland until 1983. Schneider returned to the US national hockey team for the 1982 Ice Hockey World Championship tournament in Helsinki. He retired from hockey in 1983 and went back to Minneapolis  where he worked as a sales executive for a semi-trailer company.  In 2001 he quit his job to gain a commercial real estate license.Buzz was inducted into the United States Hockey Hall of Fame in 2003 as member of the 1980 Olympic team.He is now the coordinator of the Turkey men's national ice hockey team. In the 1981 TV movie about the 1980 U.S. hockey team called Miracle on Ice, Schneider is played by Jonathan Sagall. Buzz's son Billy portrayed him in the 2004 Disney movie Miracle.On the DVD of the 2004 film the director said he asked Billy if he was related to Buzz after he saw Billy's last name and billy just said "Yeah he's my dad" like it was no big deal. I wish Buzz good luck with everything and I hope and look for Billy's movie return.

Aww so sweet

The russian Factor

Reason 1 to hate Matt Cooke

Sidney, funny

Star Player: Lubos Bartecko

 Lubos doesn't play in America any more but he deserves to be honored and it was something that I was made aware of only recently even though the reason I'm honoring happened at the Olympics in Vancouver earlier this year. Lubos was playing for Slovakia in the Olympics when Ole Kristian Tollefsen from Norway knocked Lubos to the ice. The situation was made worse when his helmet exposed more of his head (probably caused by a second hit). Lubos ended up getting a concussion and bleeding from the back of the head. But as I learned this past hockey season Slovakian hockey players are tough as nails and hard headed so Lubos was fine and I think went back to play over seas in a Swedish League. So good luck Lubos

Please God bring him back to me

Boris has been put on reentry waivers so he may come back to me and soon so things are looking up for us and I'm very happy!!Vráť sa silná som chýbaš! I'll let y'all know when I know more!!
