Summary and analysis of hoop dreams and the theme that interested me.

                      The summary and analysis of hoop dreams can summed up in many ways with many questions. If i had to sum it up i would say Hoop Dreams was about two young good basketball athletes named William and Arthur who are using basketball as their ticket out of poverty. But along the way faced challenges like for example when at the end of their freshman year St. Joseph high school had an increase in tuition causing Arthur to leave due to the inability to pay forcing him to go to public school. Another example is when William tears his miniskis causing him to miss the rest of his sophomore year at St. Joe's. By the time both Arthur and William were seniors they were superstars at their high schools and big time ball players knowing that it was the only thing that was keeping them from the bitter streets of Chicago. So William was offered a scholarship at Marquette for basketball and due to not high enough grades for Arthur he was forced to go to a junior college for two years in order tom get high enough grades to accept an athletic scholarship and finally did to Arkansas state college and there he became a star point guard at Arkansas state and as for William he quit the basketball team but resumed with the team in his senior year.

             As for a theme for the documentary I think the most common theme was " was basketball a job or a sport to William and Arthur". Now my response to that is I think personally it was a job because they were a natural talent at the game from a young age. Also you can not forget the fact that playing basketball was basically the only thing from keeping them from the bitter streets of Chicago. So yes i do think it was a job to them because it was also a way for them to get their families out of poverty which made both William and Arthur play their hearts out on the floor every time they played. Even William said at the end of the documentary that basketball has become more of a job  because that is all he does everyday is get up and play basketball and would be still happy if he had to stop playing. So that's why I think that basketball was more of a job then a sport to both William and Arthur.

The Superbowl

                      The Superbowl was very exciting this year. It included the Seattle Seahawks and our very own New England Patriots. The Superbowl is a game that means a lot to the two temas that are in it. It shows the drive and determination and hard work that took that team just to get their and how it paid off. Its a game where the two most hard working team can show off their talents and show that they deserve to be their and that they deserve to win the last game of the year and a chance to bring home the championship trophy also known as " The Lombardi Trophy".

                   It was an intense moment, there was a little under a minute left in the game Seattle had the ball on the one yard line.....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7rPIg7ZNQ8 and then the ball was snapped and Russel Wilson throws... and there is Malcolm Butler their to save the day and picked off the pass at the one yard line creating a sigh of relief for Patriots fans around the world. I my self was cheering because the pats really needed this win to submit the legacy between Tom Brady and Bill belichik. When the team was down by ten Brady put his team on his back and led the way and threw a touchdown pass to Julian Edelman  which ended up being the game winning touch down. That comeback ended up being the biggest comeback in the fourth quarter of a Superbowl in NFL history. As a fan Im proud of my football team not giving up when people thought they should and came back and won the game to bring back the trophy to Bean Town!!!!
