Greatest Softball Catch Ever
Have you ever been tricked into watching a YouTube video? During the Summer Olympics I looked up a lot of clips called things like “Usain Bolt wins 100 metres!!!” But instead of finding a clip of Usain’s amazing athleticism I’d get a single picture of him and an ad for somebody’s website. Ugh. Not fun.
So when I came across a video called “Greatest Softball Catch Ever” I was
pretty skeptical. Greatest catch ever? Must be a trick, I thought. However, I’m supremely glad I checked this out. See for yourself:

I’ve seen outfielders reach over a wall to make a catch. I’ve never seen somebody jump over a wall to make a catch. The best part is that the outfielder bounces right back up. Good show, huh?
Keep the questions coming, guys, and we’ll do a mailbag really soon. Is there anything you want to know about OWL or who makes it? Ask me and I’ll get you the answer ASAP!
Talk to you soon.

How did you get the name for Owl?
That was amazing!!!! Cool!!!!!!!
YAY!!! i got my OWL!!!!!!!!! i cant wait to enter the story contest!
Hahaha! That was so weird! For a second I didn’t realize what really happened, then I saw that he jumped over the fence thing for the ball! Ahahahaha! Okay, I better finish my homework now…
Hi Craig! When you were a little kid, did you ever thing about being the editor of such a great magazine like OWL? What did you think you would become?
Oh, and also, where do you guys come up with the amazing articles in the magazine?They are always the coolest topics!
Did you ever visit the United States? Where did you go? Did you like it?
I live in the United States (California), and how come it always seems as though I’m the last person to get the OWL magazine??? Sinead just got hers, so shouldn’t I be getting mine? I know that OWL is a Canadian published magazine, but can you speed up the delivery, please.
I love OWl and I always read it from cover to cover.
hey Craig, is there a limmit to how long your story for the contest can be? and i hope you get your owl soon, Lexi!
Yeah, Sinead and Lexi.
Also, yeah, how did the name OWL come to be?
Craig, have you ever read the book “Marley & Me”? If not, I really think you should. It’s a really good book. It’s non-fiction.
Aww, i read some of it. It’s so sad.
Craig, Do you play any instruments? Does anyone here? Yay for french horn!
I JUST GOT IT, I JUST GOT IT! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! THE NEW OWL ! ! ! ! ! YEEE-HAAAHH! ! ! !
I play piano, and trombone.
I also know how to play the recorder.
They are so fun!
AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!! I still haven’t received the new OWL issue!!!
I can’t wait to read the article on celeb privacy and the gross facts about your body.
Oh yeah, and Katie, Marley and Me is one of my favorite books! Have you read Marley A Dog Like No Other yet?
My absolute favorite has to be….. A Swiftly Tilting Planet by Madeleine L’Engle OR The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by ? Brashare.
i’m gonna learn to play guitar, and i used to play the bagpipes, but i stopped.
I have played baseball for 6 years. One day I am going to do that!
I got my owl magazine yesterday! I hope that I win the owl’s story contest!
Bagpipes, cool! Craig, when are we gonna be able to read the rest of sinead’s story? The suspense is killing me! ! !
Can you guys who have recieved your OWL issue tell me the topic of the story contest??? I really want to know!!!
I play the flute, piano, and I used to play the clarinet. But I like singing better than any of those, though.
“Marley: A Dog Like No Other” is the exact same book as “Marley & Me” exept the more adult parts are removed.
What do you mean by “adult” parts? is it inappropriate for 9 year olds?? It sounds really interesting, though!
Hey Craig, if you weren’t the editor of OWL, what would you be?
Also, cool magazine. I’m a new suscriber. September 2008 was my first issue. Can’t wait for the october one!!!
Still waiting for the October issue……………
