Putting all conspiracy theories aside that the league is somehow attempting to make this a 7 game series, the current back and forth between the Mavs and Heat appears that we are headed that way. I still have the Heat winning in 6 but either way, they are firmly in control of their own destiny. It’s now a best 2 out of 3, they have 1 game left in Dallas to get a win and no matter what the final game will be on their home court. They have not finished well in the finals, but all things considered, I’d much rather be in Miami’s position than Dallas’. I would like to mention that it was a pleasure to have Lebron watch game 4 from my sofa. Hopefully he decides to attend game 5 and give the Heat a boost.
Not much change with the ongoing NFL lockout even though here recently they have had a series of “secret” meetings. We made need to redefine what secret means. I would hope they figure something out soon as the NFL network appears to be running on fumes. They recently featured a show on the Top 10 Left handed quarterbacks of all time. There have been about 35 left handed quarterbacks in the league....EVER! I guess I have a Top 10 players under 5’7 episode to look forward to when the NBA gets locked out after the season.
If anybody is interested in watching a tournament that is set up for either the US or Mexico to win, the CONCACAF Gold Cup is in full swing.....anybody? Hello? I tried. (I should point out that this is soccer...just to eliminate confusion)
Make no bones about it, I think once you reach a certain age, you should be banned from operating anything with wheels. But I absolutely can’t stop watching this. And I love the women golfer doing the turn-your-back-cover-your-mouth-walk-away-laugh routine.
The 3rd movie in the Summer 6 pack is history. X-Men: First Class. Initially, this was to be Magneto's feature film, which is evident with the storyline. However, a bulk of the focus is on establishing how the Mutants came to be and what drives them. With the exception of Hollywood taking a few creative liberties, the transition from the comics to the screen was pretty accurate. It almost had to be with a 2 hour plus run time. I'm an X-Men mark so take this for what it's worth, but I would say this could possibly be the best installment of the X-men movies to date. It's definitely in the running. And just so we are clear, I have never attended a comic book movie dressed in costume or attended a comic-con convention.
So your stunt double was sitting on the couch with you during game 4...interesting.
ReplyDeleteWhat's even funnier is the caddy almost walked away and then thought to self...this rich muthasucka pays me...let me make sure he's ok.
Most people would be mad that you "told" the movie even though it's been out for them long enough to go see. But not me, I didn't follow X-Men when I was younger...well not the storyline anyway...so I appreciate your not so idiotic take on it
I will look past the stunt double comment. Altho i did find myself in the mirror evaluating such claims. The jury is still out.
ReplyDeleteIn short, yes. Being that some people are "first nighters" and some are waiting for it to hit the dollar theater or red box, and plenty in between. I just err on the side of caution. Especially with a marvel film...those people take them seriously....so I hear :)
You might look like him a lil bit but still far from it. Sorry but you heat are going to lose a heartbreaker tonight and the mavs will close it out in miami on their floor and when you come home I'm going to rub it in even more. I haven't started on my six pack yet. I'm always putting off til the last minute I gotta break that habit
ReplyDeleteLet me clear up one thing. This isn't "my" heat. I am no more a Heat fan than any other team. I think Lebron deserves a ring and I like that he took less money to play with Wade and Bosh. I also think Dirk/JKidd deserve one so no matter who wins I lose no sleep. But i will take great pleasure in proving you wrong. So, "Go Heat".
