Hello, for this blog I will be telling you about myself and some stuff this year.

Hello, my name is Jayden and I am a grade 7 student. I really like playing hockey and a bunch of other sports, juggling, seeing friends and family and some other stuff.

A challenge I have faced this year is not being able to see people for long stints of time. Due to COVID you couldn’t really see anybody and that really sucked for me. I couldn’t see my family or friends and play basketball, trampoline, hockey etc. We had to go into remote learning and I had a  harder time focusing and getting help from teachers or friends.

In next year I think the hardest thing will be adapting to the new work. When were doing work in grade 7 I occasionally look up and see what work they are doing and I am very confused. I think I will be able to do it but I think it will be a lot harder.

I have learned a bunch of stuff this year and I cant really think of anything specifically. I have learned a bunch of new kinds of math, writing, science and social studies. As a person I think I have learned that you should appreciate the time you have with family and friends. Like I said before due to COVID I couldn’t see anyone for a long time. It really sucked and I wished I could see them. Now I am really happy that you can see some more people and have fun again.

Some more random thing about me are my favourite hockey player is Alex Ovechkin, my dream car is a dodge challenger, and my favourite joke is” What do you call a cow with a twitch. Beef Jerky.” I think that is pretty much it and I hope you enjoyed.

Patrick Mahomes                                Jayden

“Every experience, good or bad, you have to learn from.” This is one of the quotes from my favourite quarterback in the NFL, Patrick Mahomes. He plays for the Kansas City Chiefs and in my opinion, may even be better than Tom Brady over time. Here are some more facts.

Pat was born and grew up in Tyler, Texas. He used to play baseball but gave it up in his junior year of high school to focus on Football. He played for the Texas Tech University and was the starting quarterback. In his final season with them, he recorded 388 completions on 591 pass attempts, finishing with a percentage of 65.7%. He threw a total of 5052 yards and 41 touchdown passes. He had 10 interceptions that year.

Some of his family is Pat Mahomes (Father), so technically he is Patrick Mahomes ll, and Randi Martin (Mother). Pat Mahomes was a professional baseball player and over his career he played for the Minnesota Twins, Boston Red Sox, New York Mets, Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs and the Pittsburgh Pirates. Randi is in charge of the Hollytre Country Club and is the Private Events Coordinator. Jackson Mahomes is his younger brother, and he is well known on TikTok and Instagram. Mia Randall is his step-sister, and is a YouTuber.

Mahomes is the starting quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. In 2020 he threw an NFL Career high completion rate of 66.3%. He threw a total yard amount of 4740 yards, 38 touchdown passes and 6 interceptions. These stats are really good and I think he will be better than most quarterbacks in the future. He had better passing yards than the MVP this year, by a few actually 341 yards more.

In his career he and the Chiefs have won one Superbowl and made it to two. Two Years ago they won, but last year they lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This, was surprisingly, the first game that Mahomes has lost by double digits in his career.

The reason I like him so much is for a few reasons. He is funny when he is  “Mic’d up” and started singing “Feliz Navidad” to his teammates. He is really good and consistently gets throws where they are supposed to be. You may say Tom is still better than him, but Pat had better stats in everything except for touchdown passes. But that was only a difference of two. Tom had twice as many interceptions too. He is a really good young quarterback and I can see lots of Superbowls ahead for him and the Chiefs.
