10-1-0
Thursday, October 27, 2005
So much for salary caps and collective bargaining agreements! The Red Wings are 10-1-0! So much for letting loose some of the big names they had two seasons ago. New faces like Johan Franzen (he has a chance to become really big in a few seasons!), Mikael Samuelsson (he already has 6 goals, 3 all of 2003), and Dan Cleary are proving that its not all about the money (unlike the New York Yankees - gone fishing!). Jason Williams is coming out of his shell. Brendan Shanahan is still the same old bruiser. This could be break-out years for Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg. Manny Legace is playing like an All-Star. The special teams are clicking (3rd in the league in both PP and PK). And don't forget they still have Stevie Y, Nick Lidstrom, Robert Lang and Kris Draper. This is going to be a fun season to watch. GO RED WINGS!

Face-off!
Wednesday, October 05, 2005
The NHL is back. With it comes many rule changes that dictates a faster and more exciting game. There will be more goals and icing will not matter as much anymore. More penalties will be enforced ensuring more room for scorers to wreck havoc and greater responsibilities with little margin of error for the defenders. It might be an exciting and fast-paced season ahead. I've missed it for a year and I can't wait to watch it again. The fastest team sport is on!

1 down, 10 to go....
Tuesday, October 04, 2005
Yey! The Yankees are in the playoffs. For all that's happened to them this season, it would be even sweeter if they won it all. Nevermind the payroll, a lot of the contributions have come from unlikely sources. Robinson Cano - he's the man! Talk about clutch rookie. Aaron Small - 10-0, 3.20 ERA in 9 starts. They should have pitched him earlier in the season. Shawn Chacon - now that he's out of Coors everyone sees he can pitch. Chien-Ming Wang, another rookie with balls of steel. Without these people, the Yankees wouldn't be complete. With regular contributions from MVP Arod, Jeter, Big Unit, Shef, Godzilla, Tino, Bernie, Jorge and the rest, a season of early failure might end in success. 1 down, 10 to go. Go Yankees!

Grow up!

Don't you hate it when someone's mad at you but they don't say anything. They just keep it in and wait for you to make mistakes. That's when they pounce. When they pounce, they don't care what happens to you. Someone I know is in that situation right now. Let's call him or her Person 1. A woman who's married to Person 1's relative has some beef with Person 1. What's funny is, its that woman's kid who seems to be at odds with Person 1. This kid (if you can call him that) is in college and he still goes to his mommy to help him get rid of the demons in his closet. Pointing out one's mistake is one thing but compounding things from the past is another. I mean, if you are going to accuse someone of doing something, you'd better have some proof to back it up. Things like, "its you're fault that my RV was stolen." How the hell do you defend yourself from that attack? Do you say, "Oh, I was inside the chapel getting married while your RV was being stolen so I don't think it was me who stole it," and "what would I do with your RV?" Nothing really matters once your mind is set to destroy someone's spirit. You just spit out accusation after accusation. Where are these accusations coming from?

There's more to life than accusing people for unproven crimes. It just pisses me off how people go out of their way to find fault in others. They should fix their lives first before they go and try fixing other people's. And to that whinny kid, you're in college. Grow a backbone and deal with your own problems. Don't let your mom solve them for you. Its a bit late for you to grow up but you're not out of time. Not everyone wants to see your new toys. People have better things to do than admire your new Ipod. If your mom gets you everything you want, don't expect people to envy you. You're not in highschool anymore! Grow up! Uuugh! Sorry for venting, I just feel bad for Person 1. I really hate them with a passion.
