Thanksgiving

Once again it was a nice thanksgiving with family. I had plenty of food and catching up with family members I see maybe 4-5 times a year. Sure most of my family members have there annoyances but when its only a couple times a year i can deal with it for a 8 hour stretch. Of course the best part is eating and being lazy while watching all the football games that are traditionally on thanksgiving day. Most of the games were competitive most the game and it was just generally entertaining. Of course now its back to reality and back to the rest of year in school. With this class im getting a little restless because of how there is not class to go to. I dont know what my grade is and i haven't heard much from the teacher so im just waiting to find out if i survived another semester. All my other classes im not worried about Im not even thinking about them right now because its all good. Maybe im just obsessing because of finals coming up and if i will be ready for that. Which i think i will be but in the case that i do fail any classes i will be extremely disappointed. Probably frustrated as well.

HP7 part 1

Went and saw the new harry potter movie on opening night. While I waited for the most part outside in the cold with very few layers and filled up with frustration with the system that Hollywood theaters decided to use to organize the lines outside of harry potter. As was most people that had to wait outside and put up with the ridiculous hard core fans of Harry potter but i guess you cant complain because you went opening night. Regardless of what time it was when i went to see the movie i didn't need these harry potter elitist letting me know that they were better than me when they are middle aged and are up at three in the morning. The movie though was excellent especially compared to the previous movies of the harry potter series. All of the actors are coming into there prime and the directing was tremendous. The movie was extremely detailed which helped all the hard core addicts to pay attention and not goff. The art work was excellent in the scenes that it needed to the best which it was when it mattered. The whole part one of the movie was impressive and it was also frustrating because this is what the movies could of been if the would of made them two parts every time and it was just a distant reminder of what could of been. With that consider everything about the movie was right were it needed it to be and when it was sad it was sad. There was plenty of comic relief in the movie especially when the movie itself was pretty dark which it should of been. But all of this considered this is just the warm up the first half of a season they have to finish strong with the next movie which i strongly believe they will. 

no d in heat

During the summer of 2010 there was a lot of buzz of were some free agents would go but the leading man in this soap opera would be Lebron James. As most people know he and Chris Bosh signed deals to play with Dwayne Wayne in Miami. This team made the NBA relevant during the off season which really hadn't been done since Michael Jordan's era. Now there was a lot of talk about the character of James for going to a place were it looked like they have been planning this since the 08 summer Olympics. Cleveland media absolute crucified him for leaving his home town. Even though he was born in Akron. Now obviously the way he went about it was poor and a bit showy for sure but the intentions were right on the money. He wasn't going to win in Cleveland with that situation, it was an extremely bad organization and the right thing for himself was to get to a better place. So once the season started there were extremely high exceptions as there should of been with three all-stars in the prime of there careers and two potential hall of famers on the team as well with pat riley as the GM. So on opening night they looked like a team that hadn't played most of the pre-season due too injuries, a busy off season and almost completed project. So now fast forward to present day the heat lose again by being exploited at there two weakest positions and indecently the positions without an all-star player. So how does the heat cure this ailment of a weak point guard and center position. Well Erick Dampier is a free agent and a well below average offensive player, but he will play defense as well as any center in the east and he's not afraid to hack.  

The walking dead

I'm going to get on my soap box and talk about something that always puts a smile on my face when it comes to an apocalypse and that's zombies. Recently a new show has come on AMC which historical has hit or miss tv series, but this new one from the director of the Shawhank redemption and the green mile has made something special on AMC. The show takes place in Georgia were a viral outbreak has consumed the nation and the world and has created a war between the living and the dead. So far the storyline is very interesting as well as how the characters are related to each other and the main ties they have to the plot structure. The show starts very much like 28 days later, which is the main character wakes up from a traumatic injury in the hospital which is completely deserted and ransacked. So far the character has to piece together what happened to his family and to the world. The show has everything you would want in a zombie tv/movie series which is ridiculous one liners and head shots with gore. So far i really enjoy this show and I think it has a lot of potential to be really entertaining.

week 8 of the nfl

This is the time of year were the good teams polish there craft. This is a season in the NFL with tons of parody there are no really weak teams in the NFL. The Buffalo bills is suppose to be the worst team in the NFL gave the Ravens all they could handle and the Chiefs. So in a league for of similarity who is going to come out on top. I believe that no matter what happens in the NFL this year the Superbowl champion is either coming out of the AFC North or East. The Ravens, Steelers, Jets, Patriots, and the Dolphins are all more the capable to winning a Superbowl. But I am a bias fan and I will make an argument that the Buccaneers could at least go all the way to the Superbowl. First reason is the schedule for the buccaneers is incredibly easy, the only remotely tough teams are the Ravens and maybe the falcons a couple of times. The rest of the teams they play are all dysfunctional teams. The second reason is the we have a future Mike Tomlin as our head coach named Raheem Morris. He is not the tactial brilliance of a Belichick or a reid, but he is players coach he has the respect despite being only a few years older than ronde barber the veteran on the team. The last reason and maybe a bit premature one but as far as im concerned he has passed the eye ball test is the teams Quarteback named Josh Freeman. He is what alot of football experts say is a futuristic John Elway.
