Sports - 10 August 2006

I am a male, 14 years old, 123 lbs, going to 9th grade and i want to join the basketball team. My speed is pretty good right now. I am the second fastest in my entire school and my school is from 7-12 grade. I am only 5"4' so i am not very tall. I cannot dunk on a ten foot hoop either. The maximum size hoop i can dunk on is 8 feet. Does anyone know how i can increase my hops within a month because i am going to join basketball next month and i am also going to join varsity track so that might help for my high jump. Any suggestions? Also my shot is alright but everyone makes fun of the way i shoot. Thats because i hold the ball in 2 hands but release with only 1. The other hand stays in place for balance but my shot is still pretty good. Any suggestions to make it better? Also i am not that great with my lay ups because i usually overpower them. I need to work on my offense a little as well. If anyone can help id greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Hi. I am 14 years old. I am a male. I weigh 123 lbs. I am going to join varsity track. Recently i went to virginia and i gained some weight. Last year in school i was in 8th grade and i was able to run a mile in 4 minutes and 37 seconds. I think the weight i gained might affect my timing in a bad way. I would like to know how to gain more staimina though because the most milage i can run consistently is 13 and i would like to increase that to 15. Please help me.

Someone told me that the reason Manny wanted to be traded was that he had had an affair and his wife was demanding that they move so that he wouldn't see the woman anymore. Does anyone know anything about this?

I admit, I've only been fishing for those kind of fish a couple of times, all of my experience comes workin/fishing in AK, but I'm moving to a tropical area in about a year, and I'd like to set up shop there. Besides lures and poles and the basics, what kind of stuff will I need, and how big a boat (I know "people have chaught 700lb marlin from a rowboat!...and all of that crap, but I mean, to have 4 guests (my ideal #) a deckhan and myself, with room to hold the catch for a full day charter). When I Deck handed for a friend in Hawaii, he had a 42 foot hatteras that was awesome, but I could see getting by with less, at least to get started, but maybe that's how big you need...?

Of course the answer is yes and they will not get past the first round. It must be weird in that clubhouse knowing that you have a great year going but have no chance to do anything with it.

NASCAR is the only sport to allow upper level drivers participate in its farm system. Does this not hurt the level of drivers coming up?

Does anyone know where I can view these online, the specific one I want to see is the one with Craig Monroe doing a little dance in the dugout, I know it's a specialized question and chances are only people in Michigan will know what I'm talking about.

I have a spare tire with a 7-speed cassette, but I want to put an 8-speed cassette on it with a set of 'slick' tires for pavement. Can I just toss an 8-cog cassette on, or do I need to replace the hub (I know you can put a 7 speed cassette on an 8-speed hub by adding spacers, but I wasn't sure if the reverse was true or not). Thanks!
