The Life and Future of Eric Watson

The Life and Future of Eric Watson
Waz up fellow classmates you have just entered Eric's blog. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a 5'11 freshman from John Carroll. I enjoy playing basketball and football. It just seems like the swish of the net, or the feel of the terf under my cleets just gives me excitement. I am not just an athelete. I am a student athelete. I believe school comes before sports because you can not make it to college with just talent you need the academics.

I also believe that with a John Carroll education i will have a bright future ahead of me. I look to improve my writing and keep an A in english. For this year i would like to be an honoral student and win a championship in a sport. I know this will be hardwork but i am looking forward to a challenge and ready to defeat it. Once i complete my four years at John Carroll I would like to be involved with sports. I would love to play college ball but if that is not the case i am hoping to become a sports caster and give my thoughts on NBA and NFL players. Well I am hoping that all goes well and that i can live my future as planned. This is Eric signing out suscribe to my blog and have a nice day.
