The Way It Is

Acura Radiator

2009-05-08T12:28:00.000-07:00

I recently purchased a new car last week and you wouldn't believe what happened: on the drive home, the radiator burst and I had to take it right into the shop. Thankfully I was able to get my Acura Radiator fixed and it works like a charm now. Take my advice and make sure you get a thorough inspection on your car before you decide to take it back home. I know I am going to for sure now.

I think I'll be posting on here again for the next few weeks. I seem to have gotten a lot of comments on this blog and will try to actually write some clever stuff on here so that you aren't commenting on a bunch of crap. Take care.

Halloween Costumes

2008-10-29T11:33:00.000-07:00

It's about that time of the year. The snow is falling and the leaves are finally changing colors. You're starting to pull your hooded sweatshirts out of the closets and have gone to the mall to find a new winter coat. Most importantly, however, it's candy time. What sorts of Halloween Costumes are you thinking of going for this season? I've always wanted to be Harry Potter. Why Harry Potter? Because his character, if dressed correctly, is the perfect appeal for all types of people. Little kids will look up to you, adults will respect you, and most importantly the women will flock to your sensitive nerdiness. How can anybody deny this? Harry Potter has it all, and if you dress like him this Friday, the results will blow your mind. For instance, let's say you go out to the big party and there's a beautiful woman that has captured your attention and before the party, you memorized some of Potter's best lines and spells from the movies. I guarantee you by the end of the night that the girl will not only pay an abnormal amount of attention to you, but will also go home with you that night. Mark it down. Chicks dig Harry Potter and his spells. Now go out there and get it done.

Visit the Sweeney Todd Movie Site

2007-11-29T08:48:00.001-08:00

I don't like Johnny Depp that much but he is a pretty good actor. I'd go visit the official Sweeney Todd movie site if I were you.

What are my favorite Johnny Depp movie moments? Scissorhands is a great movie. A true classic where you have to read between the lines to get the true meaning of the movie. Definitely a great. Wasn't a big fan of the whole Pirates of the Caribbean movement. I thought the second and third ones were terrible, and that the first one was overrated. It never ended and took forever.5 to finally end! Anyways, for his second great performance I would have to say Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas for sure. What an awesome and trippy ass movie. Hunter S. Thompson might be one of the best writers to grace this era and Depp played a similar character almost to a tee. Thompson would have been very proud. Has anyone ever read that novel? It's amazingly in depth and covers a travel to the heart of the American Dream, whatever that may be. Anyways, Johnny Depp does a great job in that movie, and he will do a great job in the Sweeney Todd movie, which, by the way, is partly based on a true story. How creepy is that? Maybe you should also visit Sweeney Todd on MySpace, that way you can get a better grip about what exactly is going on.

Ooooooooh Yeeeeeah!

2007-11-29T02:22:00.000-08:00

Was at my Grandma's house today and watched the 1998 Survivor Series with my uncles. It was awesome. It made me want to pull this clip out. If there was ever a cooler wrestler than the Macho Man Randy Savage, then I never had the pleasure of watching him. Snap into a Slim Jim....oooooooh yeeeeeah!

2007-11-28T09:57:00.000-08:00

I used to be horrible with numbers until I took the time to purchase some Math Tutors on Score! These dudes are off the heezy fo sheezy no doubt. They are almost as awesome as Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers, who will walk into Dallas on Thursday and leave with a victory. I guarantee it.

Under Armour Commercials

2007-11-28T09:36:00.000-08:00

I don't think I have ever seen a company who's commercials tried so hard to be serious but end up so lame. The "Click-Clack" thing is so incredibly ridiculous that it makes me laugh when I watch it instead of buying their products. However, I seem to be in the minority when it comes to not buying their products. Check out the spread on their stock

Looking pretty solid in the last year, it could easily become this generation's Nike. Sales have increased ten-fold this year, and all their other statistics (available at finance.yahoo.com) are great as well.

DateHookup.com

2007-11-23T09:30:00.000-08:00

Another disappointment for the Lions yesterday afternoon, taking it from behind from the Packers and Brett Favre. The announcers were so in love with Favre, you'd think they were trying to look him up on DateHookup.com. He played incredibly well though and left the Lions in a huge hole in the NFC Wild Card. With the finishing schedule they have, I expect them to completely flop and miss the playoffs. After the great start, it's quite a disappointment.

5.11 Tactical

2007-11-20T11:00:00.000-08:00

Interesting game last night between Denver and Tennessee. It's hard to believe that the same team the Lions destroyed a couple weeks ago would be successfully incorporating 5.11 tactical gear into their shoulder pads to make them hit harder (?). Anyways, the AFC West is there for the taking and Denver might have the horses to do it. They don't play another team over .500 for the rest of the way.

My future wife, Adriana Lima

2007-11-20T10:50:00.000-08:00

Is there any woman hotter than Adriana Lima? No....which is why the title of the post is what it is. One of my friends actually had the pleasure of seeing her in person, and was not hesitant to make very detailed descriptions of what he thought of it. To each their own I guess.....but here's to the hottest woman in the world, at least according to this writer.

Freeze It Gel

2007-11-20T10:43:00.000-08:00

This is my brother in law, Anton. He played a lot of baseball and basketball in high school, and was constantly using his joints. Over time, the tendons in his joints started to erode and get worse as time went on. After he graduated, it was so bad that he was constantly popping pills, once to the point where he had to go to the hospital. He desperately needs Freeze It Gel. This stuff works so well, and is incredibly soothing. Anton always talks about how much it has changed his life because he would otherwise be shooting himself up with drugs just so his joints didn't hurt so bad. Freeze It is effective because it's all natural and doesn't use all those lame chemicals you will find in Icy Hot and other pretenders. What's even better is that they offer it in a way that will relieve muscular strains, sore backs, and the aforementioned arthritic joint pain. Relieving this joint pain from Anton is important because he wants to continue to play the games that he loves so dearly, but can't because his knees and elbows constantly hurt so badly. In his senior year in high school, he averaged 20 points a game, he was that good! He has begun to help out our high school in coaching, but is unable to fully participate because his problems. He also has a hard time sleeping sometimes because of his back. This is not very fair to him because he is still so young (only 28). Old people are getting old and don't have much left in the tank, while Anton has a whole life ahead of him that could be more productive if he had some Freeze It in his medicine cabinet at night. Please give him a chance. I know you won't regret it.

Lincoln City vacation rentals

2007-11-19T07:37:00.000-08:00

The Lions played a pretty poor game yesterday against the Giants. As expected, Kitna had no time to get the ball off, and even when he did, guys like McDonald were fumbling the game away. Although they were jobbed on another challenge call at a pivotal point in the game, there were plenty of opportunities for them to come back, but they could not. The running game was lackluster again, which is even worse news. The Lions better come to play on Turkey Day, otherwise they are going to be booking a beautiful set of Lincoln City vacation rentals for the team as a whole, when they are watching the Patriots destroy whoever they play in the Super Bowl. However, I think they are going to beat the Packers on Thursday. They are due for a loss, and continue to win without running the football. The Lions nearly beat the Giants without playing even a decent game on offense, and I expect the offense to show up on Thursday, as they historically play well on Thanksgiving (unless they play Indy). Kevin Jones needs to be there, and the Lions need to start getting Calvin Johnson the ball, that way they will be successful.

.....And it was all over.

Kudos to a guy who ran the most clean major program in all of college football. Kudos to a guy who helped provide me with the greatest year of my life (1997). Kudos to a guy who won and lost with class. Kudos. I will write more later.

Sup chicks? That is what I say to a lot of people a lot of times. But for real, sup chicks? That is the aim of these awesome singles web sites. They are looking for guys like you to find chicks like them, and vice versa. Once you start checking out some of the profiles, you'll be addicted. I mean....you'll really enjoy them. If you're lonely, don't be afraid to check it out. Even if you don't find the one, maybe you'll meet a couple lonely friends or two. You never know.

Chuck Norris says.....

2007-11-14T09:02:00.000-08:00

....take Mike Huckabee. This guy is "Chuck Norris approved". Hey that's really great, and I like Norris, but come on, are you that desperate for attention that you have to ask the help of a guy like CHUCK NORRIS? I laughed out loud when CNN actually has the gall to post this story on its front page, like it's a big deal or something. Huckabee is OK, but I am a little skeptical about this stuff. Oh well.

Eclectrics® Mixer

2007-11-09T13:42:00.000-08:00

My mom and I on every other Saturday used to make our own homemade bread. We definitely like to use our hands when mixing the dough, but things became a lot easier when we started using the Eclectrics® Mixer. This thing is awesome! I never thought I'd ever use a kitchen appliance that was as effective as this thing was! It mixes, mixes and mixes some more, saving me and my mom a whole bunch of time and effort. The Hamilton Beach® Mixer can be yours for only two easy payments of 19.95 and one really complicated payment. Yes, anyways, this thing comes in many different colors and can make that warm cinnamon raisin bread, just like my mother and I used to. I promise that when you use this wonderful Hamilton Beach® Stand Mixer , that you will be so satisfied that you might go out and buy one for somebody else. I thought that I would hate the thing because it's electric and those things can be difficult, but man when I gleefully opened the package and unwrapped this Turkish delight of an electric appliance, I was more than satisfied in what I had purchased. Please promise me you will say the same thing when you go buy one yourselves. I am going to get one for my mom. I am going to get one for my grandma. I am going to get one for my aunt. I am going to buy stock in the Hamilton Beach company. It makes everything so much easier that it's sickening.

Lions this week

2007-11-09T13:00:00.000-08:00

Once again, everyone seems to be picking the Lions to lose this weekend in Arizona. Not me. Although their offense should be able to exploit a weak secondary, I do think the defense has improved enough throughout the year to continue their recent hot streak. Does anyone realize the Lions have more forced turnovers than anybody else in the entire league? Those are the kind of statistics that are constantly with winning teams. I think Warner is prone to turning the ball over. We'll see.

Tonight's WVU game

2007-11-08T15:21:00.000-08:00

WVU is not a serious title contender are they? Will their turnover-laden, offense-only, 150 combined point-scoring game tonight really make you believe that this team is any good? Why not look at Kansas. I've been calling Kansas for about three weeks now ever since they did what Oklahoma couldn't: win in Boulder. If Kansas wins out, then they definitely deserve to go to the National Championship game to meet the other contender. Seriously.

New York CityPass

2007-11-08T09:38:00.000-08:00

New York, New York. The hustle and bustle of our country's real capital is unmatched. I am actually looking at Law School down there at ol' NYU. Why not? I have completely dominated all of my law-based classes and I know I am capable. Some mitigating factors are also evident, such as my life-long quest to be the real life version of Jack McCoy, my love of the big city, and mostly my love of the penthouse apartment that looks over the entire city. That would be awesome. But the coolest thing I would get if I went to NYC would definitely be a New York CityPass. If I had one of those I would be the toast of the town constantly. And what a feeling it would be. I'd be helping those Dutch dudes that bought Manhattan and that still run it. So what if it costs $3427782 a month to live there, I would be happy and that's all that matters. That CityPass stuff is so sweet because you don't have to pull out cash and all that garbage. This thing gets you in anywhere, whether it be the Statue of Liberty, Chinatown. Anywhere. I am telling you it's a bargain, and it's going on until March 15 so do that stuff.

Save your change

2007-11-08T09:32:00.000-08:00

Let's do some math today!

My girlfriend and I have saved $26 worth of change this month.

26 X 12= $312/year

312X20= $6240

It's that simple. Heck, if you look hard enough, you might find even more change than that. It's a lesson in what awareness and patience can do for you. I don't see why more people don't take a concerted effort into doing this.

The Mist by Stephen King

2007-11-08T09:26:00.000-08:00

My aunt lives in Florida. She waitresses at a restaurant just outside of Orlando. The last time she came up here to visit, she was telling me about Stephen King, the wonderful author, and how he came to visit the restaurant every other Sunday. She said that he was one of the nicest people she had ever met and that she really liked him. It is for this reason that I have decided to promote The Mist by Stephen King. It's a story of trial and tribulation, perhaps one of the author's best. Does anyone remember Pet Sematary? Probably the single most terrifying movie I have ever watched in my entire life. This movie is similar in that it uses things that you would see walking down any street on any night and turning it into the most terrifying adventure of your entire life. Trust me, I was jumping scared just watching the trailer. This movie looks even scarier than watching Pet Sematary as a five year old boy living in the middle of nowhere late at night with the lights turned off. I would suggest checking out the trailer and seeing for yourself. It is truly a life-changing experience that will be sure to affect the way you live your daily life. I am just kidding but seriously. Take a look.

Still Standing

2007-11-08T09:20:00.000-08:00

Am I the only person who has ever watched this show? My girlfriend and I watch this show constantly and it's hilarious. Mark Addy is definitely the man, and is one of the funniest TV characters of our time. I can't believe this show was taken off the air. The critics ripped into it bigtime, which doesn't surprise me because they really don't like anything at all. It takes something you've never heard of for them to like it. That's too bad.

Dentemp OS

2007-11-08T09:14:00.000-08:00

I remember when I was 14 years old and I was playing some flag football with friends of mine. I ran a deep slant pattern over the middle of the field and as the ball came I leaped up towards it. That was the last thing I remembered. When I woke up, I was laying down on the couch in my living room and my mother was very sad. I asked her what happened and she told me that I had been knocked out by one of my buddies during a game of football. Then came the bad news. One of my fillings had been popped out. I wish that I had Dentemp OS to provide some much needed temporary dental care. Alas, I did not, but if I had then I might have saved my family a whole bunch of money. Then all these problems would have been avoided. Oh well, I am ok now, but I wish I had DENTEMP OS.

Invest Wisely

2007-11-08T09:12:00.001-08:00

Lesson for the day: invest wisely. Even if you take a small amount of your money and put it in your savings account it will eventually add up. I promise. The interest rates will yield you great cash money once you retire as long as you leave your investments untouched. That's the key. DO NOT take money out of your accounts.

Holiday Gift

2007-11-08T09:06:00.000-08:00

My grandma was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's. It has been a sad last month or so for our family, and we have had an incredibly difficult time coping with the situation. But we have come to realize that there are a lot of people in the same position as we are, which has made things better. This Christmas, there is the perfect holiday gift to give the one you love, which is a gift from the Alzheimer's Association E-store. You will get great gifts from the store while feeling all the better because you really helped somebody's life by doing this. While getting a cure is important, we are also committed to simply helping out those whose families have been affected by this difficult disease. The more we all help out to help those who have to cope with it, the better off we are all going to be. Please buy a gift, I did, and it made my day to know I was doing the right thing.

Which Conference?

2007-11-08T09:01:00.000-08:00

I am on a mission to figure out who exactly the best conference in College Football is. Is it the SEC? Is it the Pac-10? Can somebody come up with the ultimate argument to make their case? Who is the best all-time? Who is the best this year? A lot of people have a lot of opinions on it, and I am determined to find out what everyone has to say.

Math Tutors

NFL Picks Review

It would be hard to complain about going 11-3, but I am not too happy. The only pick I really missed out on was San Diego over Minnesota. The other two? Ahhh, whatever.

Seattle is going to give me trouble, though. They and Carolina are probably the two hardest teams to pick each week because they are so inconsistent.

Garage Cabinets

2007-11-04T08:17:00.000-08:00

Seriously, does anyone think that LSU is not the luckiest team to ever walk the earth? I'm starting to believe that Les Miles could magically create garage cabinets for poor families in rural America with the way his team pulls out close games. But that is only wishful thinking.

Going to East Lansing

2007-11-01T12:23:00.000-07:00

I remember four years ago when I went down to East Lansing and spent the night on the fences of Spartan Stadium. It was one of the best nights ever. I do expect the same results this weekend, but never will it be like that again.

Braylon called me out in a crowd, and then said he would score two touchdowns in the MSU student section end-zone. He did. You can see the box score here (Thanks Mike DeSimone).

It was awesome.

5.11 Tactical

2007-10-31T08:34:00.000-07:00

The Detroit Lions are officially in the playoff hunt in the NFC. What a beautiful thing! You'd think that Jon Kitna was yelling 5.11 Tactical maneuvers at the line or something. I honestly think the Lions can win the 10 games that Kitna predicted them to win at the beginning of the season. Scary thought, but in a good way no doubt.

Michigan/MSU

2007-10-30T11:13:00.001-07:00

Michigan is going to destroy MSU, by Steve Lorenz

For like the 289734th straight year, MSU starts off hot, sneaks into the rankings and MSU fans start talking. Now that they are quiet again, you can draw a couple conclusions about the game:

Michigan is going to score at will in this game. MSU's pass defense is horrible, and Manningham is starting to stretch the field like he did last year. True Michigan fans that know anything about football realize that while Hart is Michigan's most valuable player, the offense is close to unstoppable when Manningham and Henne are on the same page. It opens up the running game, the short passing game, and also opens up Arrington over the middle, who is capable of the huge play.

MSU's mentality can't be much different than in past seasons at this point. They have continually blown leads and games, and countdown or no countdown, you know it's going to sneak into their heads if Michigan gets an early lead, which they should be able to do.

MSU has a solid running game, but Hoyer is terrible at quarterback, which will allow UM to focus on stopping Ringer, who they have never really had a lot of trouble stopping anyways. If MSU has any chance, than Hoyer is going to have to play above his head, because I haven't seen him play well all year (maybe NW, but NW is not good).

Michigan will win by about two touchdowns.

Bad Credit Loans

2007-10-29T12:49:00.000-07:00

I did get a chance to watch Michigan St. early on Saturday afternoon. Thankfully, all the annual "This is our year, I think we have a good team" phone calls and emails have disappeared, and instead have been replaced by a lot of shoulda, woulda, coulda talk. Never gets old. If you watched them blow another lead, you'd think that MSU's defense specializes in giving out bad credit loans to teams that don't deserve them. I fully expect Mike Hart to dominate MSU's front seven, and Manningham will go wild on a pass defense that is almost as bad as Minnesota's.

SEC Talk

2007-10-29T12:44:00.000-07:00

Tennessee, a team who has lost three games by a combined 60-something points, is now in first place in the SEC East and controls its own destiny. How can you say that the SEC is the best conference in football when 10 of your 12 teams have three or more losses in conference? It blows my mind. I promise to the fullest extent to tackle this issue in its entirety since MGoBlog won't. Hopefully it goes well and I can get some discussion going.

Tummy Tuck

2007-10-29T12:40:00.001-07:00

There are a lot of teams in the NFL right now that could use a form-changing Tummy Tuck. I could talk about the Bills, or the Jets, or the Rams, or the Dolphins. But to me, the team that needs some frontal work done the most is easily the Atlanta Falcons. Give me one player on their team that you would take right now besides D'Angelo Hall, who ironically is causing more problems for his team than anybody else. A sad situation, with a new coach who is going about instilling discipline in a complete wrong way, it's going to get worse I promise. Ironically, Bill Simmons picked them as his sleeper. It made sense at the time.

Lions=playoffs?

During the game, I had a daydream. I thought Brian Griese was going to rip his jersey off and reveal a Lions jersey underneath. Then him and Shaun Rogers would hug at midfield and "Voodoo Child" by Jimi Hendrix would start playing. Then Griese would start playing air guitar. The security team would come and arrest Griese for trespassing, and hilarity would ensue. Almost all of this happened.

Plastic Surgery UK

2007-10-29T07:26:00.000-07:00

I must say I was pretty impressed with Mississippi St's victory over Kentucky on Saturday. Heck, it'd be accurate to say that they performed some high quality Plastic Surgery UK style. Now that the SEC is officially the best conference in the country because every team from top to bottom is capable of winning a game on any given day. It's really scary, especially considering the fact they are under .500 against the Big Ten in bowl games the last six years. Whoooo. Go to UK. Get some plastic surgery. Let me know how it goes, I'll be sure to write you in a few days and talk about it.

My Take: BC/VT

2007-10-26T19:32:00.001-07:00

I watched most of the game last night between Virginia Tech and Boston College. In the beginning of the game, I was skeptical of Boston College's chances simply because they have gone unchallenged thus far. Despite the outcome of the game, I think this really says a lot about how weak the top teams in college football are this year. I realize there are defensive struggles, but I didn't really find BC's defense to be all that great. Let's get it straight: Virginia Tech is a different team with Tyrod Taylor behind center. Sean Glennon is not a starting quarterback, and it showed. I changed my mind on the outcome of the game the second he stepped on the field. Taylor is a Mike Vick-lite type player that can give defenses trouble. Glennon is just awful. Both struggled against LSU, but Taylor at least moved the ball a little bit (44 rushing yards in one half's action).

Anyways, back to the game. VT with Glennon was unable to move the ball, and only scored a questionable touchdown in the second quarter and a chip shot in the third. BC, meanwhile was even less impressive, rushing for a grand total of 33 yards. Pretty boring game overall.

The last, and perhaps most important question, is whether or not Boston College is a National Championship contender. I would say absolutely not to that. Again, this game was more indicative of how weak Boston College is as a NC contender than how strong they are. Throw out the comeback. VT screwing up on special teams doesn't make BC's comeback as worthy as what the experts are saying. And enough with the Matt Ryan for Heisman stuff too. Maybe he should thank his offensive line for giving him all the time in the world for his receivers to break off their routes and find a seam in the defense. He was just doing his job as quarterback. Boston College would not stand a chance against a top team from a major conference (i.e. LSU, Oregon, Oklahoma, Ohio State).

BC= Pretender

Interesting weekend in college football. Lots of make or break games for a lot of pretenders. The one I think isn't getting enough credit for what they have done so far is Kansas. They went into the same environment as Oklahoma (Boulder), and came out victorious. As a matter of fact, they are building a formidable football program quicker than you or I could build Sectional Garages . I believe Mangino and crew will take care of business this weekend in College Station, preventing Texas A+M students from making out this weekend like they usually do when the Aggies score. I promise this will not happen and you will be spared.

Google Finance

2007-10-26T10:54:00.000-07:00

There's really not much to say except that it rocks. My IGoogle page is starting to become the only page I really need to look at. It definitely led me to believe that Vonage (VG) is worth getting into, now that they settled with Verizon. As everything with Google is, the organization is impeccable, and every window on the page is of use to anybody interested in finance. There are no windows you really would want to close out, although you have the option if you like. My favorite part is the little search boxes on each window. If I was to type in "RIMM" into the search boxes, it gives me EVERYTHING I need to know about RIMM, their competitors, and their company. Everything.

Sales Training

2007-10-26T07:09:00.000-07:00

Once again, Colorado lost last night, showing the the American League is the better league of the two. Boston was able to play offensive ball in game one, and then play the "National League" style 2-1 pitchers' duel last night. Maybe NL players should look towards a career in Sales Training instead. Maybe then they'd be able to score some runs and win some games. At least they were successful in selling some tickets for their home games, so maybe some sales training is in Colorado's future. Speaking of Colorado, I think I might be going there pretty soon. That'd be sweet, wouldn't it?

Anyone ever seen this movie? I thought that I had before, but I guess I had only seen the first part. I mean, it's really honestly a funny movie. I used to turn down my windows like the guy in the first scene but I have learned that we are all our own person and that is OK. Honestly though, a top 10 movie in my small book.

The NFL Pick'em Bet: Week 8

2007-10-25T20:01:00.000-07:00

So here's the deal...a friend of mine and I have been jockeying back and forth for the first seven weeks of the season, and nothing has been settled so far. We are both sitting at 63 wins and 40 losses (no we haven't picked the same teams). So we sat down and decided to up the ante a little bit. Whoever comes out on top of the remaining weeks wins $50,000 straight up, no questions asked. He's got his NFL picks, and I've got mine. We both had some extra cash so we figured why not?

Note: We pick straight up, no spreads.

Oak Beds

2007-10-25T08:52:00.000-07:00

It's pretty easy to figure out why the Rockies lost so badly last night. It's simply that none of the hotels in Boston had been furnished with Oak Beds. Think about it. You're tired after a long flight out of Denver after being off for eight days straight. You're going to want the best possible sleep you can get. Then, once you get to your hotel all you see is a couple mattresses stacked upon each other and those pressed sheets and feel like you're sleeping on a pile of grocery bags. No wonder they lost.

Praying

2007-10-25T08:50:00.000-07:00

Really hoping the World Series doesn't continue down this trodden path. It seems like almost every year is a one-sided sweep or near sweep. Well, now that you think about it, it has. Boston sweeps ? in 2004, White Sox sweep Astros in 2005, Cardinals dominate the Tigers, and now Boston is on their way to blowing out the Rocktobers, who had won 21 of 22 until they ran into the JD Drew show. Man.

Sectional Garages

2007-10-24T17:37:00.000-07:00

Seriously? Signing Pudge for $13 million this year means that Vance Wilson's apparent comeback will be derailed. Perhaps he should get into the Sectional Garages business. Maybe then he will find something he is actually good at. But hey, he could probably draw more walks than I have fingers. The Tigers are going down next year, I hate to say it. I really hate to say it. I predict they will finish third in their division and fire Leyland, rehire Alan Trammell, and lose 110 games in 2009.

World Series, Game one

2007-10-24T17:32:00.000-07:00

I am looking for the winner of this game to take the series. Unfortunately, I feel like Boston is going to win this game. Beckett is too tough on the big stage. He might already be the best post-season pitcher in history. Colorado has a deep lineup but I just don't see it unfortunately.

PS- I hate Jeff Francis

Remortgages UK

2007-10-24T07:45:00.000-07:00

I ran into an old buddy of mine from high school the other day. He was talking about how he had no job, nothing going for him, ANYTHING. I told him he should look at some Remortgages UK to refinance his situation before things got out of control. He said he didn't know what a Remortgage UK was. I told him it was really simple and that it would help him. He politely obliged and is now in debt up to his eyeballs. All that marijuana can get to your head I suppose.

Golic was right

2007-10-24T07:39:00.000-07:00

Why is Steve Young such a wuss? Not only can he not answer a simple question posed by Greenie yesterday, he actually gets mad at him for asking the question. Are you serious? Take a stand, make a pick...you know Young has his opinions just like everyone else.

You know he would have chosen Brady too, and here's why. Manning is much more susceptible to criticism than Brady is, as Manning has been criticized for not winning the big game (and rightly so).

Greenie and Golic combine to become the man.

Grow some balls Steve Young. Grow some balls Phil Simms.

Best resources for digital camera

2007-10-24T07:35:00.000-07:00

I was watching Mike and Mike today, and found out that Vegas is putting the Lions in the playoffs. Hey, at least we might make it to the first round this year, and then we can watch the NFC Championship game using the Best resources for digital camera that they can find. They will be able to take a bunch of pictures.

Blackpool Hotels

2007-10-23T14:27:00.000-07:00

It's a shame that the Red Sox were able to come back and defeat the Indians in the ALCS. The way Fausto Carmona pitched in game 6, you'd think his mind was looking ahead to a Blackpool Hotels getaway in the mountains. Oh well, I guess there's always next year. Especially for an Indians team that is looking to perhaps bolster the back of their starting rotation next year, even though I don't think they really need it. What am I talking about anyways? Uhhh...OK. Welcome to ROCKTOBER.

Another Pick

2007-10-23T14:24:00.000-07:00

NY Giants over Miami

Is Eli Manning starting to come into some kind of zone? I wouldn't say zone, but the Giants are perhaps making their claim as the second best team in the NFC with their recent run. Their defensive line has been playing unbelievable ball, destroying the 49ers last week with a barrage of forced throws (Remember the NFL record for sacks a couple weeks ago too. Umeniyora had six alone). Miami lost the only player on their team that really matters, losing Ronnie Brown for the season. The Giants are always capable of a letdown, but I don't see one here.

Giants 26, Miami 14

I have definitely found the site that I will get my Secured Home Equity Loans from. That's for sure. Say, why don't you take a look at Magic Loans and you can figure it out for yourself. There's no doubt that the colorful, organized home page will lead you in the right direction, where you can go do what you want and stuff. Sweet.

St. Louis over Cleveland

2007-10-23T14:06:00.000-07:00

This might be the toughest game of the week to pick.

I'll go with the Rams because I feel the return of Steven Jackson will give them an incentive to go out and win a game. Cleveland surprisingly is 3-3 with a resurgent offense, led by the Anderson to Edwards combo (definitely never thought I'd write that on anything). Brian Anderson has been a huge fantasy pick-up for those who waited too long to draft a QB (like me), and has taken a lot of teams to first place (like me). Despite my unabashed respect for a guy like Brian Anderson, I think winning on the road here will be a bit too much.

St. Louis 34, Cleveland 28

Commercial Van Insurance

2007-10-23T13:50:00.000-07:00

Now that I am a father I have to start worrying about things that at the age of 22 I don't know if I am ready for, like for instance buying my wife a mini van. She doesn't want a suburban she wants a mini van. For the comfort of our children she claims. we are looking at getting Commercial Van Insurance Commercial Van Insurance so that in case of an accident we know that we are covered. Having a family is a big responsibility and I want to make sure my children and my lovely wife are safe. Even though my wife is a wonderful driver I know that she will be safe in her new purple mini van. She looks pretty hot too.

New Football Plan

2007-10-23T08:30:00.000-07:00

Since everyone around me started making their football picks, I figure I have been doing well enough to start posting them on the 'net. Jimi and I will be going for $50,000 based on who finishes higher on their picks for the rest of the season. I will update every day with a few picks for the coming week.

New England beats Washington

Pretty easy pick. Note that the Patriots could run the table without a solid running game. Instead, with Moss and Stallworth stretching the field, the checkdown passes the Patriots have run effectively for years have now become a great substitute for the running game. I remember the Skins' defense being effective in finding where the Lions receivers were going to be before they got there, giving Jon Kitna trouble moving the ball down the field. This can't work against New England solely because of the checkdown passes, something Detroit running backs are incapable of doing. If Washington attempts to prevent the big play, then look for the old New England team to show up. With Sean Taylor, Washington might be able to do this. It won't matter though.

NE 34 WAS 14

Pitt > Cinn

Cincinnati's season is over. However, they don't think it is, and that's why they will give Pittsburgh a close game. Was anyone as impressed as I was with Pitt's comeback late against Denver? They made a comeback on the road and in a tough environment (not so tough this year, though) look almost too easy. Despite the fact that they scored way too early and gave Denver a ton of time to get into Elam's range and lose the game, there still should be heads up in Pittsburgh, as they are clearly the best team in their division. Davenport has provided a Bus-like change of pace for Parker. Combine that with the fact that Pitt's passing game (9th in the league, easily Roethlisberger's highest output in his career) has done well without any production from Hines Ward. Their D will have an easy time shutting down an OVERRATED Rudi Johnson (if he returns....even if he does, why not start Watson?), giving them a fairly easy, but not that easy, victory.

Pitt 27 Cinn 17

Minnesota over Philly

Minnesota is a weird team. Best rushing D in the league, worst passing D in the league. Great running game, terrible passing game. Minnesota will win this game because they are at home. As long as Tavaris Jackson doesn't do his best Carlyle Holliday impression, then Peterson should widen his gap on the league lead in rushing against a 26th ranked rush defense. Unless they only give him the ball 12 times (are you $@#(&* kidding me?) Plus, I hate Philadelphia because they lost a very winnable game to Chicago last week. I HATE Chicago. Minnesota wins, and puts Philly in a hole they will not dig out of next year.

Minnesota 20 Philly 14

St. Augustine Events

2007-10-22T15:12:00.000-07:00

I've really been reading a lot of books lately. Besides "The Sun Also Rises", I am also really into a book about the Richard Ramirez saga, aptly called "The Night Stalker". Anyways, I think I am going to travel down to Florida, specifically for St. Augustine events. St. Augustine is one of the oldest cities in America, and has a history rich in many different things. On October 24th and November 27th, Uptown Saturday Night will knock your socks off in ways that they have never been knocked off in the past. There's even FREE PARKING. What is an event without FREE PARKING? I don't know. Anyways, while down at Uptown Saturday Night, I'll be able to find some people that want to discuss the books I have been reading. Hopefully it will create some beneficial conversation about not only books, but many other things like coffee, fantasy sports, and lame reality television shows that have no effect on my (or your) daily life. I cannot wait, especially for the FREE PARKING. Please join me and you will have one of the best times of your life in one of the oldest cities in the country.

Lions?

2007-10-22T15:05:00.001-07:00

I still strongly doubt the Lions at 4-2. I think Chicago will beat them next Sunday, even though Chicago BLOWS (I F-ing HATE Chicago.....how lucky were they against Philly?). What they did well against Tampa Bay was keep Galloway from stretching the field, forcing Garcia to check down almost every pass. This is why he had such high accuracy; none of his passes were over ten yards. Earnest Graham just earned a spot on my points-per-reception league, considering he has been the most targeted receiver (by far, actually) on his team. Anyways, offensively, there were a couple big pluses this week. First, Kitna was able to keep the ball in the offense's hands, despite another horrible performance by TWOLE (The Worst Offensive Line Ever; I shorten it because I refer to it so often). TWOLE was actually able to give the Lions a running game, however, and this is dually important. First, Kevin Jones is the man who can run the ball effectively between the TWOLE for the Lions. Second, going into a stretch of division play, running the ball effectively will pay off. This is the only reason I think the Lions can win in Chicago next week: The Bears run D is horrible. Otherwise this sets up for one of those typical "Lions on the road against a team they never beat on the road" game (i.e. their first two losses).

Real Estate License Exam

That's why I am about to take my real estate license exam soon and pass it with flying colors. Then I will buy some land outside of Boise, Idaho and watch its value go through the roof. I promise.

Football Filler (Jacksonville over Indy)

2007-10-21T18:53:00.001-07:00

Since I finished my philosophy paper early, I will be able to watch the Jacksonville/Indy tilt tomorrow night. Of course, everyone is picking Indy, but there are a ton of reasons to pick the JAGS. First, Jacksonville is tough against the run, allowing them to drop four or five defenders back to combat Manning's passing attack. Manning's career numbers against Jacksonville (QB rating of 58.6....easily the worst against any team) are also a good indicator, especially considering he is significantly worse on the road as well. Offensively, Jacksonville is running the ball while not turning it over. In the NFL (or anywhere else), that usually translates into wins. The question is can Garrard withstand the pressure, not only from Freeney coming around the ends, but from the game itself. If he can play mistake free football, than Taylor and MJD should be able to run wild on a lackluster Indy run defense. This is how Jacksonville wins games, and this is how they have had luck against Indy in the past. The end result of this game will firmly establish New England as the team to beat in everyone's mind, although they already were in my mind.

Jacksonville 31, Indy 21

Fictional stories can get really old really fast. That's why I go for the weird and bizarre news stories that are littered all over the internet.

I spend most of my days watching strange and funny videos and then sending them out to my friends, hoping it will give them something to laugh at. LOL.

Another easy win for the Pats last night. Another TD catch for Moss. Another 5 TD throws for Brady. The Manning/Brady debate is OVER. Officially. It's OVER. Let it go. Moss should have had two, but it was rightfully overturned. Still, ridiculous. The game wasn't even close even though technically it was.

Ron Paul came to Ann Arbor last night. Do I really agree with what Ron Paul wants to do? Not particularly, although I am perhaps one of those who is noticing there are no candidates out there worth voting for in the next election. Sadly enough, this is one of the most pivotal elections in recent history. The one thing I could never take away from Dr. Paul is the fact that he is a straight shooter who has never strayed away from his course. And he doesn't want a national ID card (one of the worst ideas in history).

What kind of cabinets do you prefer when you are looking to organize your garage?

Prediction was Correct

2007-10-02T06:23:00.000-07:00

Randy Moss won me three fantasy football match-ups this week. That runs my total record to 11-2 between my three leagues. If it wasn't for Steve Smith taking a crap in the last two weeks, I would easily be undefeated. I am now the top scorer in all three leagues, but sit in second place in two of them.

Tattoo Singles

Do you dig chicks with tattoos? I am not really sure if I do, but there a ton of guys (and girls) who really do. Capitalizing on this situation is the purpose of a tattoo singles site. Promoting tattoo dating might not seem like the best way to make a living, but trust me, it can be successful. This site is set up in an organized fashion so that you can find the perfect tatted up chick that you wanna meet. You can't go wrong.

Need Moss?

2007-10-01T11:42:00.001-07:00

Prediction for tonight's New England/Cincinnati tilt:

Randy Moss goes wild.

Correction:

Randy Moss did go wild in this game. He is well on his way to cementing his status as perhaps the greatest receiver ever to play the game. Think I am wrong? Look at the numbers. Pound for pound (or game for game in this case), his numbers stack up against the best receievers ever.

Biker Singles

I have a lot of theories about the types of people that ride motorcycles. I have never been a huge fan, and don't really know what the heck biker singles are looking for in the first place. To me, it seems like bikers are a bunch of lonely people just looking for somebody to hold onto. I have no idea what I am really talking about right now, but biker dating is definitely the craze right now, and if you own a bike, take a gander and maybe you'll find the biker babe you've always been looking for.

Team Captain

2007-08-26T16:10:00.000-07:00

My mother works in an Alzheimer's unit at work, and absolutely loves it. It has really changed the outlook that I have on older people, and the problems that constantly afflict them. These new beliefs have driven me to become a Team Captain in my local Alzheimer's walk. I am hoping to raise a lot of money for the walk and make a difference in my community. It is something that should be thoroughly enjoyable and beneficial for a lot of people. My girlfriend also has pledged her support to go on the walk with me, and we are working on finding new people to take the walk with us. Knowing my friends, there should be no trouble in doing so. It's really easy to sign up to be a team captain. Just go to the link above and follow the easy directions. It's really that simple. I am confident that this will develop some leadership skills in me that I have been looking to tap for a long time. Wish me luck, and don't hesitate to contact me to donate!

Starcraft

2007-08-09T16:12:00.001-07:00

I have played starcraft for quite a while now. I enjoy it more than Warcraft just because I am such an outer-space freak. My parents get really frustrated with it, but there's nothing they can do about it. Check out my link and you will find a ton of sweet Starcraft info!

I'm Back

2007-08-09T16:09:00.001-07:00

It's been a while, but I've finally made it back. My surgery went well and health is all back to normal. While I was gone, my laptop had "surgery" as well. I have watched a lot of Walker, and have a lot to talk about. I have also reached PR as well! How exciting huh? Look forward to making myself known again.

Publishing a Book

2007-07-23T13:05:00.000-07:00

Have you ever wanted to publish a book? Scared to try to find somebody that will publish your idea on paper for you? Why don't you do it yourself then? Publishing a Book is really not that hard when you go through AuthorHouse. They let you do it yourself and then you're all set. Now leave me alone while I continue to work on my novel.

A nice saturday on the beach

2007-07-07T08:48:00.000-07:00

After watching a nice episode of Walker, Texas Ranger this morning, my girlfriend and I decided to go down to the beach. The beach is a wonderful place to go on a Saturday for sure. Maybe if I get lucky we can wrestle on the beach alone for a while. That would be pretty intense.

Throwing out an idea (looking for comments)

2007-06-27T13:00:00.000-07:00

I am thinking about constructing a website that will give fellow college students easy access to resources on campus. The university websites are so confusing and vast that students don't really realize all the opportunities on campus. Did you know that you can rent a library book from any library in the world for free? So, if you are looking for extra information on a subject and can't find the right one on campus (this does happen, I promise), then our library will search other libraries in the world, find your book and have it sent to Ann Arbor. That's just a small example among the very many. There are so many resources that students don't use that it's ridiculous. This website would provide explicit links to as many of these kind of sites as possible, while outlining the benefits (and costs, if applicable) to students. Wondering what people think of that.

Police CD

2007-06-27T11:53:00.000-07:00

I remember when I heard about the Police getting back together. I was in the grocery store, and I randomly heard two shoppers chatting about it. Weird, I know, but I got really excited about it and called a couple of my friends. Well, not only did they get together, but they decided to release a new Police CD that contains all their hits (of which I don't really need to name because almost everyone has heard of the Police; if you haven't, then you need to get your head checked out). This CD also includes a really sweet poster with it. The poster is not your typical stupid poster that you get with a CD; it actually has something to it, and you might want to hang it on your wall. I tell you what, I can't wait to get tickets for their reunion tour (them and Genesis) and relive the old days. If anybody has any old Police stories they would like to share, I would definitely want to hear them. My favorite was when I was at their concert when I was little, and I was near the front row with my parents when Sting called me on stage to sing the chorus to Roxanne (I admit this is completely false, but I made my friends believe it; remember Adam Sandler and Stix in Big Daddy?). Anyways, they have a really sweet video so you should check this out:
