If I could trade places with any famous athlete, it would be Shawn Johson. I love gymnastics. (I used to do it for 8 years.) That would be so cool to be in the Olympics and visit Beijing China. I would be so nervous though to go up and perform in front of thousands of people. That would be scary. It would also be exhilirating though. So that is why I would trade places with Shawn Johnson.

If I could change places with any athlete, I would change places with Mia Hamm. I want to change places with her so that I could be a famous soccer player (soccer is one of my two favorite sports). Being an athlete, I would create a club that has several age divisions. They would include 5-8,9-12,13-15; I also would pay adults that I can trust to coach the children. The whole point of this would be so that children from the age of 5-15, can play soccer for fun. At the older ages, they will learn fun and exhilarating moves and techniques. Now you know why I would like to change places with Mia Hamm!

If I where to change palces with any althete, I would change places with Michael Phelps. Not because of his world records but because of his swimming ability and all sorts. Also I love to swim and to go into the Olympic’s in 2012 would be the best and butt kicking, with all that training. That is why you know that I would trade places with Michael Phelps!!

I would trade places with Tiger Woods because I really like to play golf. I would work hard like him and really enjoy it too. And in the end it would pay off too.

If I could trade places with any athlete, I would choose Darcy Dorton. She is an amazing volleyball player for Delta. She got a full ride scholarship to Penn State University, and has played in the Junior Olympics. So, she will probably make into the olympics for 2012. I would use that money to create a new charity for whatever is a major problem in the United States at that time.

If I could trade places with any athlete in the world it would be Alfonso Soriano. He plays baseball on the Chicago Cubs. He plays left field and bats leadoff. He is my favorite player in the MLB. He has over 25 home runs and 20 steals. I think that he is the best player on t he Cubs.

If I could trade places with any athlete I would trade places with Shawn Johnson. I have always wanted to be able to do the things she can do. I used to be able to but I quit when I was 9. So that’s why I would trade places with Shawn Johnson, the gymnast.

I don’t really know who I would like to trade places with. I guess either if they are really famous, make a lot of money, or play a sport that I like. Anybody in those categories I would like to be.

If I could trade places with any athlete, without thinking, it would be Michael Phelps. I would trade places with him because I love watching swimming in the olympics. He also kind of influences me by beating the French person by one-one hundredth of a second. Just in case for anybody that doesn’t think he won, go watch it on youtube a billion times.

I would realy want to be better than Tiger Woods so I’ve been practicing 5 days a week. I went to the rider cup on sunday and I say Phill Mickleson he is my favorite golfer ever. I said kick his but Phill and he shook his head at me and that leted me know that he heard me. So I hope I make the golf team in 09. I think I will be better in 09 because o8 was win I was a little to young.

If I could change places with any athlete it would be Derek Jeter. I would change places with him because he is my favorite player and he plays for my favorite team, the Yankees. Derek Jeter plays shotstop just like me. I would also change places with him because he is very famous and hes very rich. I think being him would be awesome bcause i think it would cool to be able to sign autographs to fans who want them.
