Michael Beasley

The kid is amazing. But he is just one person. One person who just might be the best college player when all is said and done. 39 points and 11 rebounds tonite against Kansas in Lawrence. Seems like someone did this last year against Kansas. Some guy named Kevin Durant. Shades of Durant fill my head as Beasley scorched Kansas tonite. Its not one team though that can defeat a team as great as Kansas...

Just as Durant last year in one of the best half of basketball I have personally witnessed by one person...


The better TEAM won no matter what Durant put up...

Beasley felt the pressure tonite as the better TEAM won. Bill Walker and Jacob Pullen were no shows. If Beasley had been in greater foul trouble Kansas would have pounded Kansas State by far greater.

I never thought though I would see another guy with Durants talent and yet one year later Beasley matches if not surpasses it. Who will be the guy in college basketball to amaze me next year?

Remember though ladies and gentlemen. Basketball is a TEAM game. Even Michael Jordan needed quality stars along side to win those World Championships for the Chicago Bulls. If Kansas State had a decent squad with it to help Beasley out, no reason Kansas State wouldn't be a contender for the National Championship. Right now though, Kansas State is playing just to make the big dance.

Poor Beasley can't do it all for the Wildcats!

brigade football!


I can't wait to see the opener tonite with a friend of mine who had a spare ticket. I always enjoy listening to the Brigade games on the radio, but this is my first Arena Football game to see in person. Should be lots of fun with a big win. And to top it off KU and KSU tonite!!!

Does not get much better. Oh wait, yes it does. Two weeks from not. Big 12 Tourney!!!

shameless plug for a great play


I saw a play tonite at avila university. it is called marisol. i have a few friends involved with the play. very entertaining. i highly encourage people in the kansas city area to go see this play. it is very non-traditional in my mind because it is kind of chaotic and hard to follow. but that is what kept my interest. there is a lot going on. it is not meant for kids because of the language and violence. but its higly recommended by me. i do not remember the last play i went to, but i was glad i went tonite. lots of fun. go check it out.

funniest movie ever...


Ok so I get lots of forwarded emails from friends and from people I have no freaking clue who they are. Usually my pops will forward me some really funny emails and then I get some that make me wonder if someone hacked into my dads email and stole his identity. Today I get a fowarded email from a close friend. The title says "This has a very good chance...." Immediately red flags pop up in my mind. Is this a work safe email? Are their dirty pictures? Should I even bother to open this or could someone have stolen my buddies email and password like I think happened to my dad.

So since I am not an "employee" of anyone at the moment. I am just a my own boss and "employee" until some company believes in my education and background. Right now I am a salesman. Being a salesman I can open any email without fear! I opened the forward and it asked the question of this being the funniest movie of all time.

Wow, are you serious? Granted most movies in todays society suck because there is no creative thought. It all stems from pornographic words, thoughts and images that somehow audiences in theatres laugh at. Seriously there are some very disgusting movies that are awarded the "comedy" title and it makes me barf. Maybe the writers should have stayed on strike a little longer because if movies and shows have to resort to sex to get a "laugh" then our society has gone to "hell in a handbasket" as my dad would say.

Ok so you tell me, does this movie have the potential to be the funniest movie ever?

I'll go out on a limb and venture "no" even if Will Farrell is in the movie and I think he is one of the funniest guys in America right now. But to say the funniest movie ever. I will laugh at anything and everything. I think laughing makes people live longer. I want to live to a healthy old age and the best way to do that is laugh.

But come on film industry, give me something really funny to laugh at that does not involve sexual words, actions, and thoughts. Yes I know you will probably have to fire the writers that you just pulled back off the strike, but do something will you!
