Joe DiMaggio

Joseph Paul DiMaggio is one of the most famous midfielder in Major League Baseball. He is known for his 56 game hitting streak. He played 13 years for New York Yankees. In 1969, he was voted the sport’s greatest living player in a poll taken during the baseball centennial. Vince and Dom were brothers of Joe DiMaggio who each became major league center fielders. The problem in the Yankee stadium is that for right –handed hitters, its deep left and center fields were almost impossible to get a home run.

DiMaggio married Marilyn Monroe who was a film star. However, their marriage ended after 274 days from the wedding because of grounds of mental cruelty. According to Richard Ben Cramer who was DiMaggio’s biographer, one typical forceful incident occurred immediately after the skirt –blowing scene in the Seven Year Itch film was related to the ending of this marriage.  

Sports

A sport is an activity involving one or more players. Games are played primarily for entertainment or enjoyment, but may also serve as exercise. Everyone in this world has their own favorite games and so do I. My favorite game is football. I often play this with my friends in the evening. I like this game because it is exciting and challenging.

Football is played at a professional level all over the world. Millions of people regularly go to football stadiums to follow their favorite team, whilst millions more avidly watch the game on television. A very large number of people also play football at an amateur level. In many parts of the world, football evokes great passions and plays an important role in the life of individual fans, local communities, and even nations; it is therefore often claimed to be the most popular sport in the world.
The football star and I admire most is Zinedine Zidane.Zidane was aFrench football player, believed by many to be the best player of all time. He was often considered the best playmakerand scorer. Zidanewon the World Cup for France once andwent to thefinals again butunfortunately was sent off in the final in 2006. My favorite team in the UAE is Al Wahda and Manchester City in England because I am a fan of the English Premier League.

There are many reasons football is my favorite game. I learnt teambuilding, discipline as well as teamwork through playing football.
