Zoom Lens Nikon

What is a good zoom lens for the Nikon D5000?
I just purchased a Nikon D5000 and it came with the standard DX 18-55mm lens. I am not happy with the lack of zoom on this lens. I want to use it at sporting events and take on vacation to the beach and not have pictures that look like I was a mile away. If anyone has any advice on a lens that BB would sell that has a good zoom ratio for less then $250 would be appreciated!
THANKS EVERYONE!
The 55-250mm lens is a good fit with your existing lens but if you want one lens that does it all or close to it then check out a Tamron 18-200mm lens made for Nikon at the cost of about $230 after some rebate. See the link below, it has over 50 customer reviews on the B&H Photo website.
Hope this helps.
