Last Time I was Afraid

It was a year ago and I was downstate in Detroit to watch a Detroit Lions game against the Tampa Bucceneers, and then the Detroit Redwings when they played the New York Rangers. Between the two games that I went to it turned out great, both teams won. But it was the ride home that gave me a little scare. We were on our way to Birch Run and not even 5 minutes out of Detroit our navigation system directed us off the free way. We listened to it even though I thought we shouldn't because I could tell the direction that we were going was to a sketchy neighbor hood. Torn down houses were every where, fenced in areas, and it didn't seem like there were people even here. The navigation system took us down farther and for some reason my parents still listened to it. The farther we kept going the scarier it got, people on the side of the streets just staring us down and the houses were even more a banded then the ones then the ones that we saw off the free way. It got even better when the navigation system said that we have reached our destination and we were looking at a dead end and more people just staring. At that moment we were lost and afraid and we didn't dare to walk outside and ask for direction. Eventually our navigator got us out and brought us to the real Birch Run. 

Friday Night

I'm sure a lot of you guys spent your Friday Night at the Berry Events Center watching the Northern Michigan Vs. Michigan Tech Hockey game. I was watching the game but I was at work and I became extremely jealous when I found out that the old timer from the Detroit Redwings Micky Redmond was at the game. So  I started out my Friday finally getting sleep. I got a good 12 hours of sleep and slept in till 1:00PM I then did a little bit of homework and then went to work at 3:30 PM. Needless to say that I didn't get much homework done and these blogs were the only assignments that I have gotten done.

Hanson Brothers Come to Marquette Nov 7

If you have seen the movie Slapshot you probably know who the Hanson Brothers are and you can have a chance to meet them on Nov 7th at Lakeview Arena. The reason why they are coming to Marquette is because they started there career right here in Marquette for the Iron Rangers when they were younger. Well just recently this year the Marquette Iron Rangers formed together again and they have joined the Great Lakes Region Division. For there season opener the Hanson Brothers are coming back and you can buy a ticket to go and meet them and get autographs!

Detroit Lions turn around?

As predicted I believed the Detroit Lions were going to be 0-5 there first 5 games. It's not because I thought they were going to suck, it's because they were given a harder schedule. They lost there first 5 games and they won last week against the Chicago Bears which made them 1-5. And as I speak they are currently beating the Minnesota Vikings by the score of  14-3. Is this a turn around for the Lions? I honestly don't know, they still got to face the packers and that's going to be a tough win. If the Lions exploit the Packers awful secondary defense I do believe the Lions will win. It's hard to make a prediction on the rest of the season because the Lions are unpredictable....VERY UNPREDICTABLE. The players have hope though because one of the defensive players Darius Slay did say that the Lions will be 11-5. So it's good that they have hope, do I have hope? It's hard to believe.

Michigan Vs. Michigan Sate Football

As any Michigan State Football fan, I really enjoyed the football game against the Michigan Wolverines. In my opinion Michigan State didn't play to good and they probably didn't deserve that win. But the way they won made my night, after the NMU Hockey Loss and the Redwings losing that completed my night. Michigan State is still undefeated but I don't know how much longer they can keep that going unless they pick up there play.

NMU Vs. LSSU Hockey

Tonight I went to Sault. St. Marie with a couple of my friends to watch NMU play against LSSU in hockey. The game didn't go to well, NMU lost 4-0 and it wasn't really an exciting game to watch. On the way up we stopped in Brimley to go to the Bay Mills Resort and Casino. It was a really nice casino, big, and a lot of nice machines. I didn't win anything but it was a fun experience being there and I'm glad I went to see the town of Brimley. Tomorrow morning we will be going back to Marquette and I'll spend my rest of my weekend at work.

Pen Pal

Dear Khymba Johnson,

Hello, I just finished my rough draft for my argument essay, and for the argument essay we're supposed to pick a a character from either a book, movie, TV show, or a video game. That character that we choose can't be a main character and we have to write the story from there perspective. For my argument essay I chose Scrappy-Doo from the TV show Scooby-Doo. Basically in my essay I talked about the differences between Scrappy and Scooby and why the show would be different in Scrappy's perspective in the show.

Sincerely,

Trey Haglund

My Weekend 10/11

My weekend like most of my weekends was pretty boring. I didn't do too much other than doing homework and going to work. So Thursday night I got home from class and played NHL 16 on the Xbox One, afterword I went to work at 4pm and got off at 12am. Went home went to bed got up at noon and did homework till 330pm when I had to leave for work and started again at 4pm and got off at 12am went to bed and got up at noon and did more homework until 330pm and did that all over again. Now I'm doing this blog and more homework until 330pm then I will go back to my hell hole at work. :)

Redwings Hockey

The Detroit Redwings kicked off there first season opener in Detroit against the Toronto Maple Leafs and former coach Mike Babcock. Redwings looked great, and beat the Maple Leafs with the score of 4-0. Goals scored by Justin Abdelkader (3) and Dylan Larkin (1) with his first NHL career goal at the age of 19. They traveled to Carolina the following night to face the Carolina Hurricanes, and they didn't have a good game even though they came out on top with the score of 4-3. Goals scored by Teemu Pulkinnen (2) Henrik Zetterberg (1) Justin Abdelkader (1). Even though they came out on top they dodged a bullet, being out shot 47 to 19. The hero of the game was the man between the pipes Petr Mrazek stopping all but 3 of the 47 shots faced.

Hockey Season

There is so much hockey to watch and play this season and it's going to be a blast. If you love hockey you are in the right area to watch, we have the Marquette Royals, and Marquette Iron Rangers at Lakeview Arena, and of course the Northern Michigan Wildcats at the Berry Events Center. Also the Detroit Redwings on TV, and I do believe they are going to have an excellent year, sounds like they fixed their defensive problems and their offense is looking better then last year. Now the goalie problem still may be a problem I have no idea, both Petr Mrazek and Jimmy Howard are inconstant goaltenders and that part scares me a bit. Lastly for me I will be playing hockey for the Marquette 18u team and I am not planning on getting sick of all that hockey because there's no such thing as too much hockey.

My 2 Dogs

Since I am running out of things to talk about and I am not doing much of things of exciting because I'm always working, I'm going to talk about my dogs. I have two dogs, one is a smaller Maltese Yorki, and a Cocker Spaniel. The Maltese Yorki (Tuffy) is an older dog, he's been in the family since I was 1 years old, he's a cute little dog but extremely annoying. He lays on the back of the couch and stairs out the window. If he see's a car go by he barks, if he see's a dog walk by he barks, if he see's a person walk by he barks, anything he sees that moves he barks and his bark is extremely annoying. The Cocker Spaniel (Zoey) is a much better dog than Tuffy, she's a bird hunting dog, chases after any animal that enters our yard, mainly chipmunks, squirrels, birds, or a rabbit.
