I think sports are really active and supportive in familys and scools it can also hep your health and other great things.But sports can also make people with asma get sick or make you have migrians or somthing like that but in some cases it can be really good and somtimes it can be bad.But I dont have asma or anything like that sports to me are so very helpful

I agree with mom, thats extremely funny. Spelling Bee's are cool in elementary school, even I participated in one. Now we have something called the computer that comes with spell check!
