One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful (Live on Today Show) - [HD] 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rdmnTqYYlU 

 "What Makes You Beautiful"
[Verse 1]

[Liam]
You're insecure,
Don't know what for,
You're turning heads when you walk through the door,
Don't need make-up,
To cover up,
Being the way that you are is enough,

[Bridge]
[Harry]
Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else but you,

[Chorus]
[All]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell,
You don't know,
Oh, oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
If only you saw what I can see,
You'd understand why I want you so desperately,
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe,
You don't know,
Oh, oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
Oh, oh,
That's what makes you beautiful

[Verse 2]
[Zayn]
So c-come on.
You got it wrong.
To prove I'm right
I put it in a song.
I don't know why
You're being shy,
And turn away when I look into your eye-eye-eyes,

[Bridge]
[Harry]
Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else but you,

[Chorus]
[All]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell,
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
If only you saw what I can see,
You'll understand why I want you so desperately,
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe,
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
Oh oh,

[Harry]
That's what makes you beautiful

Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na [x2]

[Harry]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell,

[All]
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,

[Chorus]
[All]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell,
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful (Oh),
If only you saw what I can see,
You'll understand why I want you so desperately ([Harry:] desperately),
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe,
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
Oh oh,

[Harry]
That's what makes you beautiful

Teachable Moment: Superbowl Sunday, Bill Walsh and a Chuckle or Two



Bill Walsh, one of the best-ever coaches.





Bill Walsh, that's the coach of coaches. 
He wrote some very positive advice for 
teachers and everyone who works with kids. 
 

"Kids who take part in any sport get to feel 
the euphoria of victory, but they also learn 

how to deal with loss."
 
"Having to play a role determined by coaches, whether it is exactly what a player hopes for or not, teaches the acceptance of authority -- but not an automatic, robotic acceptance."
 
"Athletes have to also understand that anxiety is not a flaw, and that overcoming it is 
 possible -- and sometimes a lot easier than they thought."
 
"The social elements of team sports have far-reaching effects. Team members develop the ability to communicate under stress. They learn to respect others whether they like them or not, and if a team is ethically coached, its members also are taught to respect their opponents no matter how fierce the rivalry."  
For full article:

Fit for Life: A Coach's Pep Talk

Former San Francisco 49ers coach Bill Walsh discusses the importance of physical fitness in school and beyond.
http://www.edutopia.org/coaches-pep-talk
 
 A Scorecrow. 
What do you put in the 
N zone to stop the other team from scoring?  

 
 
 
 
Where do hungry football players play?
In the Supper Bowl.

What did the football say to the punter? "I get a kick out of you." 

 


 


 

 
 Why do coaches like punters?
Because punters always put 
their best foot forward.   
 
 What do you call a lineman's kids?
Chips off the old blocker.
 
What football player should you be suspicious of?
The quarterback sneak.




 

 

 

 The saga continues.

 

 

 

 



 
Why did the football coach go to the bank? A: To get his quarter back!

 

Q: How do football players stay cool during the game?
A: They stand close to the fans?
 


Which football team cooks gourmet meals together?
The Kansas City Chefs. 

 

 Now, let's watch the game. Broncos or Seahawks? 
I don't care, I'm a Forty-niners fan.

 The Ramones-Baby I Love You 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqZmJ7RGAP4 

 cover of the Ronette's classic hit.

Baby I love you

Have I ever told you, how good it feels to hold you
It isn't easy to explain
And though I'm really trying, I think I may start crying
My heart can't wait another day
When you kiss me I've just got to say
Baby I love you
(Come on baby)
Baby I love you
(Oh-ee baby)
Baby I love only you
(Baby I love only you)
I can't live without you, I love everything about you
I can't help it if I feel this way
Oh, I'm so glad I found you, I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
Oh, tell me that you feel the same
Baby I love you
(Come on baby)
Baby I love you
(Oh-ee baby)
Baby I love only you
(Baby I love only you)
(Come on baby)
Baby I love you
(Come on baby)
Baby I love you
(Oh-ee baby)
Baby I love you
(Come on baby)
Baby I love you
(Oh-ee baby)
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
