YouTube, a way for someone to express themselves in video form. It is used for multiple reasons, promos, psa, sports, music, how to videos, comedy and many many more. Videos go viral all of the time, I'm not huge into watching them unless I'm shown them by someone else. There are two main reasons I use YouTube, the first one being music and the second one of course being for sports!
Music is a passion of mine, I can't go a day without listening to it, whether it be in the car, during a workout or when I'm studying! I love it! Music speaks to the soul and depending on my mood I listen to various genres. An infamous song, which I've mentioned more than once on my blog that I can't get enough of is "Jump Around" again, being from Wisconsin it just comes natural to love this song! I could simply post a lyric video of it from YouTube on here, but the Badger in me comes out and I love to promote them and watch this video! It reminds me of the Wisconsin tradition which I encounter at every game! My first video. . .

Sports, I just can't get enough of them in my life each day. If I could spend my life traveling to different sports venues to watch games each day I would! Now, to narrow my choice of YouTube videos I love that have to do with sports is just not fair! There are so many of my favorite sports moments! For this, I literally can't choose one, so why not choose one each from my three favorite sports, basketball, football and of course, hockey!!
College basketball, the rivalries, conference tournaments and the NCAA tourney, the best part of the year! Wisconsin plays tonight against the Baylor Bears, so why not show some MORE Badger pride with this exciting buzzer beater that led the Badgers to OT and ended up beating that team from across the lake. . . Michigan.

Football, now how does one go about choosing a favorite video here? Well, it's not a quite a highlights video, but it does have a rap to it and is something that went viral when it came out. Now I'm not a huge fan of rap, but Lil Wayne did do a great job on this video called "Green and Yellow" that is now known as the Green Bay Packers Anthem.

Hockey, this is an easy choice, again I can't help that I've lived in Wisconsin my entire life and grown up around ALL Wisconsin sports. Although, I do LOVE the Chicago Blackhawks, and this video features a family friend, who played for Wisconsin and then the Blackhawks. I was a freshmen in high school and traveled to Milwaukee to watch the Frozen Four, where the Badgers won. I can vividly remember this day, losing my voice, and taking pictures with family friend, Adam Burish before the championship game, which the Badgers won! So here is the tribute to the 2006 Badger Hockey Frozen Four!

The last video I will share has to do with the Badgers once again, but this video went viral and brought attention to the college football world in many ways. After this video was made, then t-shirts were made and all of a sudden the Oregon Ducks tried to copy the Badgers and it went on from school to school from there. Teach Me How to Bucky is a fun, Wisconsin loving video.

YouTube can be used in so many ways, the best way in my opinion is for sports!
