Combo Shout-out


The first Shout-out is to Mama Monsivais who is celebrating the completion of another year of experience.  With sixteen kids she has proven that she can hang with the best of mothers.  And I know that she would be embarrassed with me sharing this, but with sixteen kids it would be tough to have a favorite, luckily I am number three of sixteen, and made her pick for favorite easy, so from your favorite, Happy Birthday Shout-out to Mama Monsivais.

The second Shout-out in the combo goes to the BYU basketball team, with breaking news indicating that Brandon Davies is working towards readmission to the university in the fall semester, and all indications that Davies will be a member of the 2011-12 BYU basketball team.  The breaking news on Davies return was one of the top stories on SportsCenter this afternoon, and was one of the Headline stories on ESPN.com, indicating that BYU continues to be relevant.  Another indication that BYU is relevant to the sporting world was evident in the ESPN article “Top Sports Telecast on Cable” (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/thelife/news/story?id=6397850).  The article reported the most watched sporting event for the time period of Feb. 28 – March 27, 2011, with a total number of 5,261,344 viewers, was the BYU-Florida NCAA Tournament game on March 24.  So here is a True Blue Honor Code and All Shout-out to BYU and Brandon Davies.  

Here is a shout out to Major League Baseball for taking control of the Los Angeles Dodgers Baseball program, while the owners try to figure out who is the real owner, how much they own, and where all the money has gone.  The Dodgers are one of the most storied programs in baseball; however, with the recent beating of the Giant fan at Dodger Stadium, the owner’s messy divorce, and financial woes of the team being publicized, Major League Baseball did the right thing by stepping in before the team was a complete loss.  That deserves a Stepping in before the Dodgers became as relevant as the Expos Shout–out to Major League Baseball.

My last Shout-out in this combo goes to a sporting activity that I never thought I would give a Shout-out for, Dance.  I recently was shown a video by wife in which 4 individuals are dancing away to some video game.  I could not help but laugh, and watch the video multiple times.  This video was posted on Facebook by one of the followers of this blog, since I do not have access to the video I would like to have the follower who posted the video on Facebook post the video below in the comments, so all the followers can join in my Shout-out for the wonder of Dance.  This video earns my Lord of the Dance, Quality video, and Joshua what were you doing Shout-out.
