It has begun

Finally.  My fix will occur tomorrow night.  Yeah I have to write the paper for this class still and I need to study for my Writings of Isaiah midterm, but I have something more important to do.  The NBA season starts at 7 PM tomorrow night.  Now I have a purpose other than football to turn on the TV.  Basketball is my favorite sport to watch and to play.  I can watch any game and any team.  The movement and speed of the professional level is incredible.  Each game has other worldly plays.  With the rise of Hulu the TV became more expendable.  However, sports do not have any replay value so they are the only thing that keeps me from throwing my TV out of my second story window.  And to start it off with the Heat vs. the Celtics.  C'mon that is must see TV.  The two biggest big 3's to face off.  That is a gimmie.  Let the fun begin.

P.S.  This post has no discernible train of thought aka cohesion?

The Greatest

Very few people have been called the greatest.  A few more have self-proclaimed that they are the greatest.  I want to be the greatest at something.  Michael Jordan being the greatest at basketball is almost a consensus, although you could make a case for Wilt Chamberlain.  Lil Wayne and Jay-Z both proclaim that they are the best rappers.  I think that since Jay has more record sales, more #1 singles, and more #1 albums than even the Beatles that he takes the cake.  Mohammad Ali said he was the greatest.  I don't care for boxing so whatever.  So from what I've come up with basketball, rapping, and boxing are out.  That leaves a lot of options for me.  I'll need to chose something that I already have a knack for as well.  Lets see ... blowing bubbles, throwing a Lacrosse ball, eating hot foods.  There are a lot of people out there so odds are that someone is better than me at such generic things.  I need to go very specific and maybe into a category that no one has gone before.  I got it.  I am the greatest mountain biker down fire lanes in Forest Park with a matching baby blue outfit.  On second thought probably even not that.

Super Smash Bros.

Probably the greatest game of all time.  And yes I have played Halo Reach on Xbox Live while using an HD TV.  Please do not think that I am a serious gamer, my Mom only let my brother and I play 45 minutes a day on the weekend.  So one might think that I have not played enough games to be taken as an "expert".  Believe me though, I have friends who loved video games and they exposed me to the most critically acclaimed games.  Super Smash is the best because it contains lasting value.  Most games can only be played for a couple months at a steady pace until they become boring.  Each sport games pumps out another version every year.  But Super Smash is timeless.  It was the first game where people would play together in a group environment.  For the purposes of this post I am eliminating all PC games from the discussion.  Tourneys were created to allow people to challenge each other.  It was the first popular game to not be a "main game" game.  The design was to play with others and not by yourself.  This allowed gaming experiences to be shared and thus more valuable.  Yeah I played last night in my basement with three friends last night after Ward Prayer.  It was great.

Buy you a coke

I actually like T-Pain's song Buy You a Drank.  In his song the story follows that the purchase of a drink or drank leads to an encounter with a woman.  In my case this did not happen.  Here is the original song followed by my version:
I'm gonna buy you a drank (wooo woo woooo)
Imma take you home with me
My version:
I'm gonna buy you a coke (wooo woo woooo)
She gonna say thank you
I imagine that T-Pain does not buy women soda but instead expensive liquor.  Now T-Pain is not the stud of the ranch, so I bet that if I bought women at BYU Martinellis to drink they would have a more positive response.  She enjoyed it but 60 cents can't impress much.  Maybe delivery matters as well.  If the coke had been in a cooler she would have had the wow factor as well.  Next time . . .
