    The Boston Red Sox Monday, August 21, 2017 * The Boston Globe The pick here is Andrew Benintendi over Aaron Judge Dan Shaughnessy Aaron Judge vs. Andrew Benintendi. Forget 2017 American League Rookie of the Year. I’m asking . which guy would you rather have on your team for the next 15 seasons? We love these Yankee-Red Sox mano-a-manos. It’s as old as the rivalry itself. Joe DiMagggio came to the bigs in 1936. Ted Williams burst on the scene three years later. Throughout the 1940s, it was a raging argument. We were even led to believe that the respective owners of the Sox and Yankees once made a late-night swap while in a drunken haze. The alleged trade was called off by dawn’s early light. Remember when the Sox had Carlton Fisk and the Yanks had Thurman Munson? New York’s grumpy catcher was a league MVP before his career was tragically cut short when he crashed his plane in 1979. Fisk went on to become a Hall of Famer. Don Mattingly and Wade Boggs were rivals of sorts in the 1980s and who can forget those early years of this new century when Nomar Garciaparra vs. Derek Jeter was a real debate. Now we have Judge and Benintendi. Big Poison and Little Poison. It’s 6 feet 7 inches and 282 pounds vs. 5-10 and 170. It’s not about Rookie of the Year anymore. Even though he is playing as badly as anyone can play at the moment, Judge pretty much retired the rookie trophy with his ridiculous first half.

  • 2.1Sport and Leisure Time
    2.1 SPORT AND LEISURE TIME There are a large number of sports that involve the water. Here we present the most popular in the countries involved in the project. SWIMMING The recreational activity of swimming has been recorded since prehistoric times. Although humans have been swimming for thousands of years, swimming only became a competitive sport in the early 1800s. Today, swimming is the third most-watched sport in the Olympic Games. In 1828, the first indoor swimming pool, St George's Baths was opened to the public. Competitive swimming became popular in the nineteenth century. Swimming is an event at the Summer Olympic Games, where male and female athletes compete in 16 of the recognized events each. Olympic events are held in a 50-meter pool, called a long course pool. In competitive swimming, four major styles have been established. Butterfly (fly) Backstroke (back) Breaststroke (breast) Freestyle (free) In open water swimming, where the events are swum in a body of open water (lake or sea), there are also 5 km, 10 km and 25 km events for men and women. SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMING It is a hybrid form of swimming, dance and gymnastics, consisting of swimmers (either solos, duets, trios, combos, or teams) performing a synchronized 114 routine of elaborate moves in the water, accompanied by music. Competitors show off their strength, flexibility, and aerobic endurance required to performing difficult routines. Swimmers perform two routines for the judges, one technical and one free, as well as age group routines and figures.

  • Skate Levels
    Skate Levels Tot 1 Pre School Beginner Who Has Never Skated Proper Way To Fall In a standing position, stretch hands and arms higher than eye- level so you can see them. (Not so high that the pupil would tent to fall backwards.) Tuck chin to keep head forward. Bend knees and continue the falling down action as you would sit on a chair. Continue gently until skater falls on one cheek (bottom, that is), keeping the hands in position and off the ice. Proper Way to Get Up Facing the instructor, get in the position of a puppy dog on hands and knees. Put one foot between hands, and then bring second foot between hands, keeping weight balanced on center of both feet. Rise, slowly, looking at the instructor, until skater is in proper standing position. Remain still for five seconds. Repeat falling and getting up two more times. Marching in Standing Position With arms in front as in holding handlebars of a bicycle, lift alternate feet three times, remain still in proper position for five seconds. Repeat for a total of three times. Marching While Moving March, counting 1, 2, 3; and then glide on two feet (feet parallel and comfortably apart but no farther out than hips). Repeat five times.
