Just a couple of things on my mind............
First the ESPN shorts segments.... I hate them! Enough said.....
Chris Berman returning on Sunday nights? HUh Thank God i have to watch Sopranos, Alias. or the L Word reruns on those nights. I HATE Berman! He's a has-been, his nicknames no longer stick or stand out as they used too and his stupid "Swami" crap is annoying along with with his "top ten selections." Let me guess, just watch.....this Sunday he will pick the Tillman services as Numero Uno! Don't get me wrong I love Mr. Tillman and respect him very much as I stated before. But come on Berman stick with the sports world.
And speaking of Pat Tillman. I have been known of bashing Mr. Jim Rome after he called Tara Lipinski a "slut on skates" when she was 14 and won Olympic gold. But I now have to say I was very much impressed and humbled by his speech during the Tillman service. Mr. Rome you are now in my "Tops List" you made a great speech and I hope the majority of athletes heard it, so that they too would learn that "winning isn't everything." YOu deserve a standing "O."
Barry Bonds............what can I say, well what I am about to say may make some of you reading this cringe, but here it goes.....Yes I now do believe that Barry Bonds is the GREATEST BASEBALL PLAYER OF ALL TIME!! The guy is feared like the Plague. People need to see him get pitched too. He is going to change the game of baseball. Hopefully by banning the dreaded "IBB's" I hate this stupid rule that a manager can intentionally walk someone. imagine if they lived back in the day of Ty Cobb or Babe Ruth. They'd get skinned alive!Barry I feel your pain, and I hope you hit .400! Because there may not be another one like you in looooong time..
The NBA is pissing me off, for their continuing none promotion of the best team in the league. The San Antonio Spurs! Tim Duncan deserved another MVP! Instead what do we hear.. That stupid little "brother" Steven A Smith talking about how the "lakers are hungry." Yeah, hungry for thier retirement pension!! And then the talk about the T-wolves.. Oh Please! At the start of the year everyone was placing bets on when Sprewell would choke Garnett! Seriously, forget about me and my "suspect" ways of rooting for teams. This is a serious opinion after a thorough anaylsis. The Spurs are the best team and have the best player in the NBA! I'd hate to say this, but i wouldn't be surprised if this team actually has a shot at the infamous 8-Pt that my Boston Celtics achieved decades ago!

Well thats all for now, I haven't kept in touch with the political or entertainment world. I am out!

2004-04-30T14:19:00.000-07:00

More "Signs of the Apocalypse"
1. Jessica Simpson's version of "Take my breath away"
2. Jason Williams cleared of Manslaughter charges!
3.This Rene Gonzalez guy that was quoted as saying "Rambo got what he deserved." In reference to Pat Tillman!
4. Jair in NYC? What the heck is he doing in that dump? Watch out Jair, they may brainwash you to become a Yankees fan.
5. The Minnesota Timberwolves, talking trash in the first round of the playoffs? Come on, its only the Denver Nuggets, who are basically a upgraded version of the LA Clippers.
6. If the LA Lakers win the NBA Finals.

2004-04-29T18:36:00.000-07:00

A f ew more "signs of the apocalypse," as l call them:
1. The Detriot Tigers winning and in first place!

3. Derek Jeter is losing it! Let's hope he hits .150 this year!

5. I am starting to master some of David Gilmour's Pink Floyd solos? Well sorta, hahaha.

2004-04-28T23:43:00.000-07:00

So whats been going on lately? Well all heck is breakin' loose in Baseball. Texas Rangers are in first?!! My Boston RedSox have wom 6 of 7 against the Yankees for the first time since 1913!! And Jeff Conine couldn't muster up the strenght to get the damn baseball from underneath the outfield wall?!

Then there's the NFL Draft: Or as I called it "The Mannings" which is sorta like a Soprano's show but involving the ridiculous affairs of the Manning family's conspricacy to get Eli in a "good" team. I used to like that Eli kid but now I wish him the worst of luck, considering he's gonna be in NY!!

The San Antonio Spurs will win the NBA Title.
Danny Ainge needs to get fired. He has killed the Celtic mystic, or the little that there was left! My poor Celtics they have no clue on how to get a winning team together.

Like my buddy Jair has said before, "This is definetly The Sopranos best season ever!" I loved that Tony Blundetto is back in the business! Steve Buscemi rocks! Let's go whack someone!

As for Music, I have officially started the songwriting with "Penelope." Now that I got this sweet brand new Line 6 amp! Its so sick. I can't believe the sound it creates. I'll be jamming in Waco next time I go over there!

I want to go to the Crossroads Festival sooooooo bad! Eric "god of guitar" Clapton is gonna tear it up! And Steve Vai wil lbe there, along with SRV's brother Jimmy Vaughan! Some please email me if you want to go or get a group together. I hear its gonna be awesome. Well thats all for now!

2004-04-01T21:41:00.000-08:00

Well Waco here I come again!!
This is a little note to all you fans of the Publius Enigma Rant.
Yours truly will be in Waco at the infamous Slowpoke's bar on April 4, 2004. I will be there signing autographs to all those who wish... hahahaha. Anyway, Most of you guys still don't believe I will show up, but hey I never believed in my wildest dreams that I would own David Gilmour's Fender Stratocaster! So fantasy can become a reality! Now if only I could nail down those Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin solos!
Anyway, I am ticked off again with my Boston Redsox. Apparently Nomar is on the DL and Trotter Nixon and Kim will be out for a while as well. BOO HOO! I guess we will have to really earn it this time around.
I wanna know who was the genius that scheduled the Yanks vs. D-Rays for the opener in Japan!(oh yeah they don't like being called the DevilRays b/c of some biblethumping fools over there in Florida, I'm sure the very same that couldnt run a decent election!). Just more damn propaganda for recruiting more Yankee fans, like the world really needs that!
Oh yeah, I am still irate that the Baylor girls basketball team got screwed like a young contender facing a Don King sponsored boxer!
I don't understand these damn gas prices! Come on GW just tell everyone we are taking over the Iraqi oil!
I think my decision on who to vote for will be made after the Presidential debates. So hopefully GW can look a bit better defending himself. For now, I'm still on the Kerry campaign. Hell, they are the ones that made me earn the Fender Strat!
I still believe that Courtney Love killed Kurt Cobain!
I still believe that Tupac and Biggie are indeed alive.
And I do believe that I made a big mistake picking St. Joe's to beat my Dukies. Oh well, I was blinded by the hope of being the only with that Final in my brackets. Damn you! Kentucky, Miss. St. and Gonzaga, never again will I pick thee!
Well off to Waco I am on Sunday to make my pick for the Major league baseball fantasy draft! I will use my Theo Epstein knowledge to win it all!!Expect the unexpected in my picks!
I am out!

On POLITICS:
Well what can I say. I've found yet another job. Too bad it's only a temp for the elections. But the pay is good. I lost the other job due to nepotism. The irony of my new job? Its with the Democrats!! I am telling you prez GW watch your back, you're in trouble in the polls. Maybe I will be able to sabatoge the democratic party and kill Kerry's chances. I know Ralph Nader does a lot of help for the Bush campaign.
On SPORTS:
I don't believe all this stupid negative press on baseball and steroids!! Its stupid. Its all a conspiracy by the NFL to kill the chances that MLB has at retaining the No.1 spot as the nation's favorite game. I don't believe a single thing they say. I really do believe our athletes are better now than 50 yrs back. I don't want to sound naive but I do believe that the homerun surge was b/c players are better and that pitching was diluted. But even if that, its still damn hard to hit a baseball dead on!! Speaking of dead, so what the heck happened to cloning Ted Williams? I say the Sox should have first dibbs on that draft!
Keyshawn being traded to Dallas for Joey Galloway?? Hey I thought that Bill Parcells was running the show? Thats like trading Mickey Mantle in his prime for Babe Ruth after he got Cancer!!
Is just me, or does the NBA just suck this year?? Spurs should repeat.
Is it just me or does the NCAA BskBall season suck this year? Shit I can't even tell who's No.!
Is the NHL over?

On ENTERTAINMENT:
YOu've got to be kidding....there is already a movie on the Lacy Peterson case?!
Eminem is going to buy Michael Jackson's ranch?!!
The final Sex and the City episode sucked!
I expect the final episode of FRIENDS to suck too.
The Oscars are this weekend, I'm packing my heat (guns for you non ghetto folk) in case Lord of the Rings doesn't win Best Picture, otherwise I'm shooting them up like Scarface!
Bill Murray should get best actor.

I am out!

The X-files: true story!
Wow ! Last night I witnessed the third UFO sighting in my life! Contrary to popular belief, no I was not abducted. I saw some cool zigzaging lights towards the southwest region. I know it couldn't of been a plane or satellite. the lights were several different colors and revolving around a sphere shape. It took about three hours for it to disappear. I took some pictures with my sister's disposable camera. I doubt they will come out looking good, But i'll try to post them if they do.
Sports news:
Greg Maddux did not sell his sould to the devil, thank god! Or should I say thank a goat? I see that the University of Colorado is in some deep poop! I have a cousin over there. I sure hope she doesn't get harassed. Otherwise, the Wolf is gonna have to come out and regulate! What the heck is wrong with the Big XII? We have murdering Baptists in BU, Texas Tech has Bobby (KKK) Knight, CU has the sex parties, UT is full of queers and who knows what else, and TX A&m is just plain confused. Oh and Kansas is the origin of Matt Kuzma! Let's not gorget that OU is the home of the Chad's (not to be confused with Florida).
Allen Iverson sucks!! Its time the NBA gets rid of all thugs!
I saw no point in Stephen Smith saying that Webber didn't deserve a suspension. Hey fool! The moron lied in court! If was a typical black man of the streets he'd be doing time!
Andy Roddick is one very lucky man!
OTHER WORTHLESS INFO:
I hate Rolling Stone Mag its soo damn liberal it should just quit (like mtv) and change its damn name to "our political agenda." There are newsmagazines out there already people! If I want to read about real issues I buy Time or watch CNN or FOX News. When I want music I want a music magazine!!!! OK MTV or Rolling Stone or E! tv, stop it already with your politics.
Same goes for you dumb actors and musicians who feel that you could swing an election. People only like you guys for your talent not political agenda. Leave that to the pros (like me, hahaha).
I'm all for writing songs or making movies with your views, but please don't try to spread your word like a gospel. Its makes you guys so hypocritical. And finally, I think George Bush needs to rid of Cheney and take Powell or Guiliani as a Vice President. One more thing, those fairies in San Francisco need to get a life! I'm not being discriminatory I'm just saying, that lets say that it is legal to have a gay marriage, wouldn't that but them in a bigger spotlight and on the record as saying they are gay? Then if some pscyho would get access to the records, he/she could go out and shot'em all up if they pleased? I'm just trying to protect humans here, I'm not saying they are right or wrong. (Afterall, I will run for office one day?)
I am out!

Sports and the upcoming apocalypse!:
This is too damn ridiculous! Its like a group of kids fighting in the school yard! The Yankees and Redsox both deserve a baseball strike this year....no better yet, start a strike right now! Greg Maddux and A-rod in pinstripes? Well lets just say I know they are going to a bad place once they part his life! Thats it i'm going mad! I am dedicating my debut album in death metal to the annihilation of the NY Yankees. I don't care but its gonna be worse than any Eminem or any NWA record. I guarantee it! Its not only going to need a parental advisor sticker, its also gonna need a waiver to be signed! Thats for the majority of pissed off fans. As for us depressed Bosox fans, well, I'll work on the Coldplay and Travis sounds; and write some stuff so sad it's gonna require that no one be near any sharp objects when listening to it! Oh and don't drive to it either!
The only thing that could make a Bosox fan happy now would be a trade for Barry Bonds or Sammy Sosa!

It official the apocalypse is coming! And the goodside is Boston and NY is the bad! And the Cubs are just the sacrificial lamb!
I am out!
I think I need to go watch Pink Floyd's The Wall to calm me down, or better yet listen to the
OK Computer cd!

2004-02-14T13:39:00.000-08:00

INTRO:
I know for a fact that the day i die will be on a Feb. 14th!! Today just proved that .....the evil empire NY Yankees have done it again! They have stolen A-Rod from my Boston Redsox. There are no words to describe just how pissed off I am right now!I know the trade isn't official yet, but come on with my luck of course it's a done deal! How the hell is this happening. Am I a cursed every Feb. 14th?If its not breaking up with a girl, its losing money, or crashing my car, or now my beloved sports teams just sucking ass!

Politics:
I was reading a political website that stated they've been seeing a 10% loss in support for GW in polls for the upcoming Republican primaries. Thats not good, when you are the only one on the ballot!!

Thats all for now I have to go to work and then drink away my sorrow!

2004-02-10T15:19:00.000-08:00

Music and entertainment
The Grammys what a piece of crap. Aside from hilary duff (now my future wife ranking #1) making an appearance, Prince showing he's a great guitar player, the white stripes' jack white showing why he's the new jimmy page and the foo fighters, it just sucked ass! i can't believe that warren zevon got the sympathy vote for song of the year. the band that deserved something was coldplay. I don't remember if the radiohead or the white stripes got anything. but oh well. I do believe that so far the only great songs I've heard the past few months is "the scientist" or "bigger than my body."
OH as for the janet jackson fiasco, give me a break. how come that pansy Justin got to go the grammys and not janet? dare i say racism?
Bill o'Reilly rocks!
Damage Plan is heavier than Pantera!
The Darkness is the return of 80's metal ! check them out!
And if the Lord of Rings doesn't clean house at the Oscars expect a riot in LA worst than the rodney king one, and its all gonna be with nerds and freaks like me!

Politics
I'd hate to say this, but i feel that GW is gonna be a one term president! I feared the Kerry campaign. I was hoping tha tDean would get the nomination, but he's blown his top. The only way GW wins is if he starts to stand up for himself like he did this weekend in meet the press. He has the communication skills that Reagan had but I don't know if the majority of the people will go for it this November!
Kerry will ruin the foreign policy side of things but i see him doing well economically. I'm still voting for Bush.
Sports
Hell the Celtics suck! I can't beleive that danny ainge thinks he can be like Larry Bird in the front office. what a moron!
The only team i do not root for in Beantown and what do they do? win another Superbowl! Screw the Patriots. I know they will in fact be a dynasty b/c i hate them just as much as i hated the dallas cowboys!
Lebron James cried b/c he wasn't selected a starter in the Allstar game?!! come on kid . you're only 19 you've got like 20 more Allstar games ahead of you? or do you plan to be a flash in the pan Harold Miner?

I am out!
