last nights game

I had a game last night against Edine Prarie and we won 2-0. It was our first game of the season and it was their third and they won their other two games and we beat them so it was a good way to start out our season. Our next game is tomorrow against Maplebrook and they lost their last two games, one of those was to Edine Prarie. So if we played like we did last night we hopefully will get our second win of the season.

PSA team

I play for the PSA U17 C1 team this year. I also played for PSA last year but we were only C2, and we moved up this year. And since we moved up to C1, we had a lot of new people from all over try out for our team. Only about half of our team from last year including me made it this year and all the rest are new. We haven't had a league game yet, we were supposed to have played two games already but because of all the bad weather and storms that have been going on they both were cancelled. But in the last tournament that we were in we got 2nd place and then in the state cup we were in we got crushed because it was all premiere teams and we were the only C1 team. Our next game is this coming Tuesday against Edine Prairie. Its gonna be a tough game but hopefully we can pull off a win to start off our season.

Messi vs Ronoldo

There has been alot of debate lately on weather Messi or Ronaldo is better. Messi who plays for Barcelona and Argentina in the world cup. Ronoldo plays for Real Madrid and Portugal in the world cup. Both are great players but for me I think Messi is overall the better player. This season so far Messi has scored 22 goals, and Ronaldo scored 16. And last season Messi scored 54 goals and Ronaldo scored 38. In my oppinion i think Ronaldo is more of a selfish player and he falls over more easily and Messi is more able to stand his ground, he still can be a selfish player but he doesnt hold on to the ball when he doesnt need to. Even though i prefer Messi over Ronaldo, I dont think they ever will be a "winner" for whose the better because everyone has a different oppinion and perspective on them.



LA Galaxy

My favorite MLS soccer team is the LA Galaxy. They are one of the best teams in the league and they have one of the best soccer players in the world on their team, David Beckham. David Beckham was brought over from england to the United States to play with the LA Galaxy, his contract for the five years he signed with them was for 250 million dollars, so basically he'll be making 1 million dollars each week. Besides from having David on the team they have another star on the team, Landon Donavon. He is probably one of the best players in the league. So far this year, Galaxy has won 7 games, lost 2 and tied 5. They have the most wins in the league, and they just won their last match against Houston, even without having Backham playing. Their next match is on June 3rd against D.C. United, and Backham will be back so hopefully they can pull out another win.
