"Right is right only when entire."

-Victor Hugo

Reflection: This quote means to me that telling half the truth or not telling the entire story means that the whole thing is a lie. You cannot be right when you are half lying. You have to either tell the whole truth or else you're lying.

"In life as in football, you won't go far unless you know where the goal posts are." 

-Arnold H. Glasgow

Reflection: This quote means to me that if you don't set goals out in life for yourself then you wont achieve anything. Much like if football didn't have goal posts then they wouldn't be winning anything. You have to have ambitions in life or else you'll never get anywhere since you know nothing of what you want to do or be 

History of basketball

           James Naismith, a Canadian, invented the first basketball in 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts. It was primarily made to condition young athletes during the winter. At the first invention of the game, there were only 13 rules and a peach basket was used as the hoop. The first time they played, he divided the class of 18 students into 2 groups of 9. The objective was to throw the ball into the basket which was laid on top of a balcony. Every time someone made a score, the game had to be stopped so that the janitor could retrieve the ball from the basket. Eventually the bottom was removed. On December 21, 1891 the first public game was played and of the two teams the end score was 1-0. After the game became more popular they switched the original soccer ball template to a spalding ball and the peach basket to a metal hoop, which is somewhat like the one used today. This new game was later introduced into colleges and thus making it become a multi-billion dollar enterprise by the end of the 20th century. The International basketball Federation was created in 1932 and in 1936, it became an Olympic sport. The new sport gained popularity in other countries and soon foreigners gained the skill of Americans and sometimes even surpassed it.

"Only those live who do good." 

-Count Leo Tolstoy

Reflection: This quote by Tolstoy means that only the people who do good really live. People can be alive for years yet most  of them do not live. They do bad things and maybe not even go out but doing good proves for a good living.

"What's right isn't always popular. Whats popular isn't always right." -Howard Cosell

Reflection: This quote means to me that the things people popularize are not always a good thing to do or the right thing to do and sometimes the right thing, the good one, is not always popular.
