Update!!

Hey everyody! Ok so it's been a long time since I last posted so I'll get you up to date with what's been going on. First, Auburn's football team is not so great this year. We are plagued with injuries and we can't seem to generate a strong offense. We were able to snap a 4-game losing streak by beating Tennessee-Martin for homecoming, but we couldn't seem to finish the game against Georgia. So now we are 5-6 and have one game left against our bigest rival, the Alabama Crimson Tide, who are undefeated. Second, I now have a sister!! My older brother, David, married his long time girlfriend, Lindsey, and they are now living happily together. The ceremony was beautiful and continued without a hitch, the bride and groom both looked amazing, and everybody seemed to have a great time. Well that's it for this update, I will check back in with you guys soon! Later! 

Time, Discipline, and a quiet room.

Hey guys! Ok, I'm going to take a break from talking about Auburn's football season (even though I will probably post about this Thursday's game against WVU) and talk about another "sport." This "sport" is bible quizzing. Yes, I said bible quizzing. It's not like football, basketball, or any other sport for that matter, this is a sport that requires hours of study and memorization. Each year we are given a book/books of the Bible to study, and every month we spend a Saturday at a quiz competing with other teams from across the state. And, if your team is good enough, you might quiz with teams from your region, or teams from across the nation! But it is not easy, quizzing requires a lot of effort. If anything, quizzing requires time, discipline, and a quiet room. These things are important to the success of a quizzer. Time is required because how much material there is. Discipline, to focus on what you are studying. And a quiet room, just in case God has something to tell you. And one more thing, this is probably the most important, quizzing requires a desire to study God's Word. Without this, it is all pointless, we would just be reading the Word and not reaping the benefits from drawing close to God. Sure, you might win District finals, and maybe go on to regionals and nationals, but if you don't learn anything from it, where is the point? Well, that's all for this post. See you guys later!!  

Football frustration!!

Hey everybody!!! So another Saturday went by and Auburn failed to come out on top... AGAIN!!!!!! This should have been a victory. It was Auburn against Vanderbilt in Nashville. Auburn started out strong by scoring two touchdowns in LESS than FIVE MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!! But on our second score we miss the PAT!!!! (How do you miss the PAT????????????) It just seems like after we put the starting quarterback out of the game we can't seem to stop their back-up. After that it was all down hill. Vandy came back and scored two touchdowns, making both of their PATs. And the score stayed 13-14 the rest of the game. I don't know what he'll do, but Coach Tuberville better start whipping his team into shape, other wise I might have to have a word with him. 'Nuff said.

We need to pick it up!!!!

I don't know whether it's the coaching or the players, but the Auburn Tigers have some work to do before we play LSU week 4 of the college football season. The first week we had Louisiana-Monroe, piece of cake. We beat them 34-0. Week 2 was against Southern Miss, a little bit more difficult. We still won, the score was just 27-13. But Week 3 was embarrassing. The first quarter was nothing but punt after punt after punt from both teams! The second quarter Auburn drives to the 30-ish yard line and settles for a field goal which makes the score 3-0. After halftime it looked like things were pulling towards Auburn's favor... until we were called for a holding in the endzone which forced a safety!!! So it's now 3-2 and it would remain that way for the rest of the game. Brad Lester suffered a neck injury during the game and is questionable about whether he will play next week. Both defenses had a very, very good game and look promising for the rest of the year, but if Auburn wants to hang on to their winning streak their offense is going to have to a) STOP FUMBLING THE BALL and b) protect the quarterback. Let's see if we can keep up the winning streak and go for another undefeated year.

Waz up!!!!
