T-Mac Attack




Before everyone game I try to watch this clip of T-mac doing the unthinkable by going for 13 points in 33 seconds. Watching this gets me pumped and in the mind frame that nobody can stop me. I remeber watching this game live and I couldn't believe what I had saw. This video is simply amazing!

Weekend Surprise

I went home this weekend and when I arrived I was told that there was a surprise for me waiting in my room. When I walked in I had been so shocked to see a flat in my room. I couldn't stop jumping around because I was so ecstatic. My mother told me it was an early birthday gift considering since my birthday is on Monday. Seeing the flat screen almost brought a tear to my eye because I've been asking for one for some time now and I didn't think she was going to get it for me, which is why I was so taking back. I literally stood at my new flat screen t.v. for 10 minutes straight in amazement. What really got me was that it was hooked up and everything. I was so happy I kept my t.v. on all night. This will probably go down as one of my favorite birthday gifts ever.

Jordan vs Kobe

The other day a friend of mine and I had an argument about who's going to go down in history as the greatest player. I said His Airness, Michael Jordan and he had the audacity to say Kobe Bean Bryant. When he said that, I was beside myself. I couldn't believe he actually said. Magic, ok, I can understand that. Larry Bird, I can understand that too. Any of the greats would've been acceptable, but he said Kobe Bryant. He even tried to make a big argument about something that doesn't even deserve a comment. I was so outraged by this that I had to write this blog. Therefore, what I did was take the liberty of comparing Michael Jordan's accomplishments to Kobe's accomplishments:

Michael Jordan:
Five-time NBA Most Valuable Player (1987-88, 1990-91, 1991-92, 1995-96, 1997-98)

Holds the NBA single-game records for most free-throws made in one half (20 against the Miami Heat on 12/30/92) and most most free-throws attempted in one half (23 in the same game) . These are just some to name a few. Now let's take a look at Kobe.

-You Be the Judge*

The Road to the Playoffs

As expected, our team did what we had to do and got the win. The game started off slow with both teams having a combined score of 15 after the first 15 minutes. Luckily for us, things picked up. Our offense started coming along and we continued to play our tenacious defense that held them to 15 points after the first half. With a couple minutes to go in the second and final half, we had a fast break opportunity and I wasn't going to let this chance pass by. Prior to the game my team and I were discussing about situations that may occur in the game. We all agreed if we had a fast break and I was ahead, whoever had the ball would throw and alley-oop to me for the slam. That is exactly what and the crowd strated screaming in excitement. After the game we all shook hands and now we're looking forward to playing our next opponent in the playoffs.

The Good ol' Winter Season

The temperature gets colder while everyone's trying to get warmer
All bundled up rubbing your hands together
Feeling sorry for the poor and the homeless on the corner
Hoping the next day for a change in weather
Seeing children play in the snow all day
Shoveling your steps and your sidewalk out of courtesy
Turning up the heat at the end of the hallway
Cold breeze cutting through your skin like surgery
Winter season means Christmas is knocking
People putting up their lights and decorations
Filling up candy and toys in the Christmas stockings
Exhausted kids come inside; lots of ventilation
Christmas day arrives; everyone's excited
Old folks drinking with no worries like who cares
December 31st everyone's delighted
Jan 1st Happy New Year!

Sean Taylor


Sean Taylor was a magnificent safety for the redskins, I always enjoyed watching some of his games and highlights. It sucks to see someone so young and so much talent to lose his life in the comfort of his own home. Its getting at the time period in the world that people are doing anything to get money for themselves. There were four suspects who where charged for the murder of Sean, but they claimed that they did not think he was going to be home. What they said while confessing should not change what the jourey's think. The simple fact is that they murdered a very important person but did not actually want to kill him. They claimed to be startled to find him in the house so they panicked and shot a seemly harmless shot in his leg. They did not expect the bullet to kill Sean Taylor but sadly it did just that. Sean Taylor has some of the greatest achievements and could of continued to be one of the greatest at his positions. It just goes to show you that no matter how much you have cherish it and be grateful. Be grateful for everything you have because you do not know when you are going to loose it all. I just would like to say Rest In Peace Sean Michael Maurice Taylor and I wish my sorrows upon your family.

Hostages

Its crazy what people would go through just to get some of there own needs in everyday life. A man decided he wanted to try and put Innocent peoples lives in danger just to speak to Hillary Clinton about health issues. Its makes me sick to see people have to risk there lives to try and find some happiness in their future. The man was said to be mentally in stable so that was his reason for wanting to talk to Mrs. Clinton about health services. If the criminal was really suffering mental issues it he should not be trialed as a normal person, the judge and jury should have some type of decency to see what the guy was going through. He obviously wanted to better from the next candidate to take office, but the measures he took were a little to extreme. He could of put a lot of peoples lives in danger thank good that no one got hurt in the process of that crisis.
