Sic of Being SIC

Pathetic
I have been sick over the last week and I have really started to hate myself. Which is unusual (Please read previous Blogs) and tiresome. I thought I couldn't get any more shallow but I have made the kiddie pool of my previous self seem like an ocean compared to this week. I have suddenly regressed to my early teens.. (This wasn't a huge drop off since I really was nearing my early twenties in Maturity) I found my self scouting all the preseason games available on the NFL network (212 on directv) No joke my wife was gone for the weekend recovering from living with me throughout the year and I had the TV to myself and I find myself watching these games like Greenbay and the Saints and Detroit and Arizona.. (Man is GB terrible they have no O line).. What is my reason for watching these games.. I am sure you think I am watching these so that I can draft a fantasy team no that would be rube like but that is not it.. I am watching these games so I can look at how the offensive coordinators and defensive coordinators address different situations and the formations they use.. (This is sad) And why so I can be a great fan and truly understand the game since I used to play it.. Nope more childish than that.. I am watching so that I can change the strategy of the way I play Madden on Xbox.. So I can d up Byron (age 15) representing the bronx career record 235-76 favorite team the patriots.. Who beats be mercilessly online.. Sure he hasn't seen the sun in 3 weeks but that guy's plays a mean Dime Cover 2 Under Blitz.


According to every other person I meet the world is coming to the end.. It is Prophecy.. The End is coming please prepare yourself. Why is this squabble different than any other.. If this is the end what can we do.. It was a nice run.. Maybe I should ponder my place in this world (Can't stop thinking about how to stop that Blitz on the weekside.) How do we solve the issues between Muslim and Christian 4-3 against trips receivers .. Why do I need to escape into my Madden World when the real world is crumbling around me.. Need to get better I think my sickness is making me delusional.. Why is Kid Rock a genius.. No wait I am delusional..

Twins
Radke was as good as it gets.. IJ and BS had a discussion about this.. I can only name 3-4 pro players that would continue to perform giving the pain he is going through.. IJ claim he would play with a severed spine for x millions a year. What his argument lacks is he is going to get paid even if he doesn't play and he more than likely won't play next year so he isn't pitching for another contract.. IJ has the IQ he is just blinded by $$ BS is as dumb as me so he can just plead ignorance..


Movies
JuneBug..
Not sure how to rate this one since I just really enjoyed the acting and the dialogue.. This story was trying to do the day in the life about some odd/normal people living in the south as seen through the eyes of a well traveled British person from Chicago.. I don't need a simple story line that gets summed up in the end or makes you think.. After watching the movie I was left with the feeling that they should have shown growth in the characters or the truth behind there relationships and they really did care about each other.. But they instead left this characters as is with slight glimpses that they where a family that really cared.. Well IJ and I watched the deleted scenes and it turns out if they could have left one scene in that kinda sums up all the relationships in the movie it really made the movie for me.. So I am going to review this film with the deleted scene added.. With all that said 2.5 baldies out of 4.
