Monday October 18th

There were a great deal of interesting sports stories in Monday's paper.  One headline read "A Finish Line With a Real Height: 8,000 Feet."  Right away this title grabbed my attention. While reading this story, I thought to myself how crazy these people must be to put themselves through a steep marathon up a mountain.  Not only are these people running up 8,000 feet, but they are losing oxygen with each new height.  That just sounds extremely dangerous to me.

The second headline that caught my attention was the one about the Rutger's football player becoming paralyzed after collision on field.  Players know the danger going into the sport, but it is still sad to see players who play with their hearts on the field have their dreams crushed. 

Finally, of course the article about Brady and Branch caught my attention.  My favorite part of this article was a quote from Belichick:“He got open and caught some balls. Let’s not make it too complicated.” I just love his dry, straight-to-the-point way of handling questions.
