Amanda, aka AJ reporting for duty......

Hello Wilber's Way!
I'm sure most of you have heard my name mentioned here before. My Name is Amanda or aka AJ and yes, I am the first female writer to be featured on Wilber's Way. I'm mostly known for giving Aaron ideas on what Nussie should be posted (just lately though), for it's a on going process of which "hottie" is worthy to see Wilber's Way. As Aaron mentioned in yesterday's blog, he's out on assignment for his FT job so a few of his friends get to take over Wilber's Way for a couple days. Well without further ado, let's put a face with a name.
Here's a picture of Aaron and I watching the Bears game =)



If you look back to the blog dated November 11th: Aaron stated that it was the last time you would see a sighting of J.J. Hardy on Wilber's Way, since being traded to the Minnesota Twins. Well, he should of known better handing the reins over to me, that I would make sure J.J. Hardy was seen on Wilber's Way one last time. I am a huge fan and thought that he deserves one last look.
So there you go folks: J.J. Hardy



Okay, onto the real sports talk now people.... You were probably wondering when I was finally going to talk about sports, right? After all, this is a sports blog. Well, here's the scoop. I really know nothing about sports. I love to watch baseball and football, and I enjoy playing basketball. So please don't expect me to give you stats or play by play because it's just not there. I know more than the average woman does about sports, but by no means am I a sports editor.
However, it is football season.
How about let's talk about another one of my favorite athletes:
Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings.



Adrian is not any older than I am, scaling in at only 24 years old. He went to high school in Palestine, TX and attended college at Oklahoma University or OU. Adrian was the first player in school history to rise above 3,000 rushing yards in two seasons. His senior year at OU he decided that he would forgo his senior year of college and enter the 2007 NFL Draft where it was predicted that he would be a top five draft choice. On April 28, 2007, Peterson was selected by the Minnesota Vikings with seventh overall pick. Three months later on July 29, 2007, Adrian signed his contract with the Vikings for $40.5 million over five years. On February 10, 2008, Adrian won the 2008 NFL Pro Bowl MVP award with 16 carries for 129 yards rushing along with two touchdowns. The 129 rushing yards was the second in Pro Bowl history. Adrian was the first rookie since Marshall Faulk in 1995 to win the Pro Bowl MVP award. 2009 is Peterson's third season in the NFL, his current stat for rushing yards to date is 4,018. Currently, Adrian Peterson is among one of the top running backs for rushing yards in the NFL. As a Adrian Peterson fan or "AP" as I say, "Go Vikings."

Presenting Amanda's Nussie portion of the blog.........Julia Stiles
(in Carolina blue might I add, your welcome AC)



Julia Stiles is by far my favorite actress. She's most famous for her role as Sara Johnson in "Save the Last Dance" and Nicky in "The Bourne" series with Matt Damon. If you know Julia at all, she is a very classy, down to earth type of girl. Trying to find a "half-naked" picture of her so she would fit in with the other Nussie's that have been featured, was a little difficult I will admit. But, I did it and I hope you enjoyed yourself.
WAIT, WAIT, WAIT...........
I'm a female, and not all the time do I enjoy looking at the Nussie section. I'd like to look at some male bodies for once. (Sorry Aaron, I'm apologizing in advance for having a "half-naked" man featured on "WW")
So for you ladies that read Wilber's Way, here you go.
Eye Candy = My favorite: Channing Tatum



Thank You!
I want to thank Aaron for giving me the opportunity to blog for Wilber's Way. I was very excitied to show you all that, "I could do it like the guys." I will admit that I was nervous too. Hopefully he doesn't bash edit my blog too bad. He is a writer you know, I'm just the college student.

Goodnight Wilber's Way, and hopefully I'll get to write again soon.
