I Was The First One To Shea It

And Good riddance. After attending last nights horrible game at Shea, I notice many things. One of which is that Shea Stadium had to be cursed. I want to call it the Curse of Glavine on our Bullpen. There are other things as well, all having to do with who we should keep and get rid of. My first case is to keep Schoeneweis, he may have given up the homer but lets face it, Church has srtuck out 6 of his last 7 at bats and the Wright and Reyes have yet been able to kick it in gear. Next is to keep Wright, Reyes, Delgado, Schneider, Chruch, Easley, R.Martinez, A. Reyes, Beltran, Chavez, Evans, and Murphy. All these guys have proven themselves one way or another. Now for the pitchers to keep; Ayala, Figueroa, Maine, Niese, Parnell, Pelfrey, JOHAN (of course), Schoeneweis, Smith, and Stokes. Now my Shit List; Feliciano, Heilman, Knight, Pedro, Muniz, Perez, Rincon, Duaner, Castro, Castillo, Marlon Anderson, and Tatis. Most of these guys did good, but could be traded for amazing players. And please do not re sign Alou. and Wagner, please retire for us. We could use your money (to get K Rod). But am I the only one feeling that Santana should've started yesterday and Niese should've stayed pitching the saturday game? Johan would have been masterful and niese would have killed the Marlins!!!
So now i wait for April 13, 2009. For when the 2009 season kicks off in New York...Citi Field is opening first, not Yankee stadium the 3rd. Lets redo our bullpen!!!!

Sexist or Racist?!?!?! Is This What We Have Become?



This is what our United States of America has become? As an 18 year old, alot of people always try stopping me in front of Hunter college to ask me to if I registered to vote. I reply yes. They keep following asking what party, and I tell them the street party...That was a very bad joke, but anyway...Now I have been registered to vote since I am eager to have a say in our next president. I can remember being young and watching Bill be shoved out of the White House...I could easily say that if it were not for Matt Drudge and his report on the Drudge Report on Bill and Monica, we might not be in Iraq right now. But now, it seems as if Drudge was nothing but a slap on the back compared to what is going on now. Barack gives his wife a fist pump, now it is an act of terrorism to fist pump. As Stephen Colbert said, then terrorists have deeply penetrated our society. The wonder twins, basketball players, friends greeting each other hello on the street,etc,. On the other hand, you have a woman who we are supposed to know based on a couple of speeches and interviews. Also, the Thursday before she was named, her Wiki page had a huge increase in material. Now I can only assume this, but one of her employers must have gone on and fixed everything that could be deemed negative. Now to the main point. People who do not want to vote for Barack are deemed racist since he is an African American as well as a Muslim (who gives a shit)...and if you do not vote for McCain you are sexist since Palin is a woman. How about this...I will vote for the person I hate the least, just as every other voter has done for years. Sure there are the elderly who are brain washed by McCain, but then there lies a question...If McCain dies (he will be the oldest man ever named president) during his stay in the white house, are we really ready for Palin to be president? All you have to do is Google in her name and read about her scandals (or as some deem them, rumors)...then try to pick what you want to be...Sexist or Racist?

Mohinder Suresh finally gets balls(powers)...


Does any other Heroe-nauts feel that it is about damn time Mohinder gets powers? Well, I do. I am in the process of watching it as I am writing this...so if it tends to leave the subject then you know why. So Mohinder finally has powers...super strength...and he had sexual relations with Maya? I found that extremely surprising. I knew sooner or later the guy was going to get powers. Wow, and now Elle's father had the power to turn things into gold. I am telling you...if everyone gets a power I will stop watching this show. It is already proving to back up the much deserved hype after last season flop thanks to the writers strike. But now everything is right in the universe, not sports wise though. That is another blog though, not this one. I want to dedicate this blog entry to Mohinder Suresh. No matter how fiction he may be, he finally has a big say in Heroes. I thought in season 2 they were going to make him a much bigger character, but the writers strike killed alot of my ideas. Another one was that Elle and Claire are sisters...but her head just got sliced open. Ya!!! Now Sylar has even more un-needed powers...he should kill a Burger King employee to see if he gains the power of burger flipping and french fry frying...that would be one hell of a power...

Wanting to do something? Well just do it already




You know, PSP games have been very underrated. But now that I have lost all thought on the rating of the game, and rather on the meaning...I have found alot of games that are decent. One is NFL Street 2...an OK game but not a game I would play OVER and OVER again. A great game is Star Wars Force Unleashed...this is an absolute must have for PSP owners...third is the Sims 2...recently started playing it and have gotten alot of kicks out of it...but there are alot of games out there that are fun to play for those who need something to do...I already read and listen to music...now I play PSP...I never have nothing to do now!!!
1 MORE DAY UNTIL HEROES SEASON 3...HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!!

Star Wars Unleashing the Force



Let me start off by saying that this is the best game I gave ever played. It tops any of the three Halo games, any Guitar Hero, both Rock Bands, any game you name....this tops it. The graphics on the Xbox 360 are amazing. At the moment I am playing it on the PSP thanks to one of my fellow college buddies, and although it lacks in the graphics department....it still packs that strong punch in the story. Any Star Wars fan will play this game and feel as if they are actually in a movie. I'm not going to lie in saying this will be the only video game review I will ever give, because it probably won't...but let me declare this the first review. I couldn't wait to find out the ending....ending's....my first spoiler....so I went on Youtube and checked THEM out. And the game ends the same way it begins....fast paced and AMAZING!!!!!

This game definitely brings the force into your home, and in my case, with me on the road. Solid 5 out of 5....

Still Just an Interim Buddy

If there were an award for interim manager that got lucky after the firing of an asshole....Jerry Manuel would win it easily. Now I understand why he should win manager of the year, but I also feel that he does not deserve to be the manager in the first year of CitiField!!!! He is a great guy, and isn't afraid to do what he likes...evident by his 3.4 pitcher changes a game. Highest in the MLB. Now the Mets do not deserve to choke again (alot easier since the Wild Card is an option this year), but Manuel is taking WAY too much credit for what the PLAYERS have been doing. It's obvious that Randolph wasn't liked...look at Delgado's performance under a NEW manager. Doesn't matter who that person is or could have been, just as long as it wasn't Randolph. So here is my question...Next year, we need a REAL bullpen to go with a REAL manager...and that is not INTERIM manager Jerry Manuel.

Anyone else sensing the inevitable?



Does anyone else besides me feel like they already know what is going to happen with the Mets? I am a Heeeee-Uge Mets fan and I have had season tickets now for my second season. I witnessed last years downfall first hand by attending many of the end games...including the Glavine game...which goes in my book as the worst game I have ever seen. That game helped me in a way, because now no matter what happens to the Mets, I am immune unless we are 12 games in the lead with 12 games to go...that will never happen. Anyway, so this year......I'm watching TV about Phelps!!!! WHO THE HELL CARES!!!!!....OK, as I was saying...I am immune to all events that take place. Tatis separated his shoulder...so what, he was in a slump anyway...Nothing can bring me down after watching this man ruin a season!!!

So here we are a year after the infamous September collapse and it's happening again...I was at the game the other week when the Mets were in the lead 4-2 in the ninth and the bullpen blew it! It's sad that I am reminded of 2007...Our bullpen has the curse of the Glavine!!!!

Manly Feminine TV Show...on CW11?


I know about the whole phenomenon when guys would go around telling girls that they were in love with "The Notebook." Now, I feel that was only so they could get in their pants, or even so they could just talk to them more. But I have been watching a show that I NEVER in a million years would watch....that show is 90210 on CW11. Yes, that is true. I watch 90210...happily. Even just now I finished watching the recent episode on my DVR box. I don't know what it is about the show, but something makes me want to watch more. Makes me want to know more. So every Tuesday, I come home to watch 90210 live or I come home a little bit after the show starts and watch it from my DVR box. Either way, this show has taken over Tuesdays for me. I won't lie, Fringe is close, but the show doesn't leave me wanting to watch more like 90210...I can't even say the name that is how embarrassing it is for me. So I will call it my Tues-show.

Somebody Has to Say it...


Am I the only one who doesn't really care about Michael Phelps winning so many medals? Even when he was winning them all my friends were concerned about what he was doing and hoping he had a twitter. But I was idly standing by waiting for him to just be forgotten. Throughout the Olympics he was the story. Now his name is barely said, only to say what record he broke and what medals he won. What about the other Olympic teams? All I was seeing was enthusiasm for USA. DOn't get me wrong...I am American and love AMerica as much as a New Yorker can....but I was wondering what was going on with everyone else. The only time I really noticed was during the Gymnastics part. How the hell are those Chinese girls of the age to compete? That is a load of Horse Shit. They have the faces of a baby....They look like they can't even say a curse word...Let me not go on a tangent....Who really cares about Phelps other than friends and family now that the Olympics are done? That is the type of story I would love to see....it could be titled "3 years after USA Phelps breaks record..." I am sure the news can figure out what to fill in the blank after that. He must be all big about himself, I want to see what happens after all the pride and love is lost for him...

type his last name into Google and this is what you get...

Results 1 - 10 of about 22,700,000 for Phelps

Come on!!!!!!

Fall TV Shows....wait, here comes NBC




I have been in withdrawl for about 8 months....since Heroes Season 2 ended. I mean it wasn't the best season, but it was still Heroes. The story was still moving and I was getting my weekly dose of what is going on in the world on Peter Petrelli......Ever since that Writers strike ruined TV for me (thank you youtube for jumping in to save the day!!! errr, I mean weeks), I have been without Heroes. I ALMOST resorted to watching 24 and Lost since my father has all the seasons. But don't fret, I didn't go near them. So here I am less than a week away and I will let you know how I survived witout weekly Heroes news.
Video Games.....Mediocre TV Shows......Girlfriend......Girlfriends "reality" shows (damn those girl shows).....reading Stephen King.....
Here I am writing...or rather blogging....and watching America's Toughest Jobs on NBC......not a great show but something to keep me occupied until Monday, the 22nd of September!!!!

Break Down the Wall of Smoke


Now Hunter College is a great college. It’s already been established that there are “cool” students, teachers, and classes. Yet how about the not so cool elements. Think hard…Well, on my first day I was greeted with smoke. A whole wall of it in front of the Hunter West entrance. I figured that was the designated zone to smoke, but after all my classes were finished I exited through the Hunter North building and was waved farewell by another group of smokers. I never knew that this many students smoked. At Hunter there are about 15,718 under-grads, my question is how many resort to smoking? I know I sound like a nagger but why would anyone smoke. Not only does it hurt your body, this part I could care less about. It’s your body so do what you want to it. My problem is when I’m walking and someone blows a huge cloud of smoke right in my face. That has to be the most annoying thing in the world. A study in 2006 showed that at least one in five college students smoke. That is way too high. A lot of my friends throughout High School smoked. I always thought that once I got to college that would be a thing of the past, but now that I see that every person is at least 18 and can smoke there is much more of it. Out of my entire 3 weeks of college experiences, this is my only complaint. Maybe they should set an area where students can go to smoke like they do at Shea Stadium. My media studies professor, Robert Stanley, told me that years ago students used to smoke in classrooms! That is absurd and thank god they got rid of it. Still, despite the walls of smoke greeting you and saying farewell to you, Hunter college is a great college and I am very glad that I not only got accepted, but attended it.

Sarah Palin Wikipedia Scandal? « Thomas Roche


Sarah Palin Wikipedia Scandal? « Thomas Roche: "‘NPR just had a story about a flurry of mostly-positive edits that occurred to Sarah Palin’s wikipedia page, 45 minutes before her VP candidacy was leaked–including edits that removed/downplayed references to the brother-in-law scandal. The author of those edits? An anonymous user with the handle ‘YoungTrig.’ Trig–I’m sure just coincidentally–is the name of Palin’s infant son.’"

This is very suspicious...yet if we don't vote for her we are sexist!!!!

First time for Everything?


Is there a first time for everything? For some, they just seem to sly away from unknowns. Such as a woman who never tried Spicy food (very rare in my friends and family), they may stay away from all spicy food for fear of it. I hate sea food...For that simple fact I stay away from it. So to fix the first line....
There is a first time for SOME things...
