Welcome to the diary of Ricky Taylor. This is going to be one of the premier feautres of the year! I hope everyone who reads my diary enjoys the sensation of the intro to "The Truth."
I would first like to give a shout out to the state of Tennessee! Since this is my first diary entry, I believe I have to tell you a little bit about me. To start things off, I love going to church.
I am the starting shooting guard for Haywood County in West Tennessee. We are known to be "the country" because we have such a small town. When Wal-Mart is your mall, then of course, we are small.
If you don't know who I am, come to a game and watch #22. I have a 3.7 GPA, and I'm Mr. HHS of my school. I started playing basketball when I was in the second grade. I didn't know too much about it. Actually, when I was in the second grade, I jumped in the air and started dunking. There wasn't a goal in sight. I had made my own "invisible" goal. Yeah, I looked crazy outside creating my own unrealistic dunks as cars passed by my house. I'm talking about I was taking it through the legs about four times then hitting 720s like And 1's "The Air Up There." I loved it.
I was really enjoying the game at an early age.
Basketball is the best sport to watch, play, and practice. I know some of you are stars in football, legends in baseball, and All-Americans in whatever you do. Remember this one fact: it will never be better than the love of basketball. You get to see the high-flying dunks and the smooth play of Tennessee's athletes.
I act unordinary when I watch highlights of people getting dunked on and crossed over. What do you mean unordinary? I am a quiet spectator, but when I jump up and say, "Ooooooo weee," then the party has just started.
Another thing is when I look at someone and my eyes grow to the size of an egg, and I say, "Did you see that?" That is what I mean by unordinary.
As you can see, I love the game of basketball. I plan on attending a Division 1 school and major in accounting. I also plan to become a coach and teach players the fundamental part of the game. What college am I going to you ask? Be sure to check out my next entry on my recruitment. In the meantime I'm getting ready to go hit 60 points tonight. I guess I had another one of those unrealistic visions. I am "The Truth."
