In a New Direction

To this point, this blog was trying to produce policy briefs (basic ones) to try to inform the reading population (all 10 of you) of more abstract and unknown news throughout the world. Well, this is about to change. I think I am going to try something else, something new.  I have an opinion and I want to share it. I am still going to base my writings on news though not specifically on world political news. There may be some sports or entertainment included along with more newsy topics. I just want to make this fun for me to write and more entertaining for you to read. Maybe more than 10 of you will actually read this and maybe I will be able to post more often. Again, if this does end up being only for me, then it is what it is and I am fine with that but mainly because I will find a way to enjoy what I am doing. I just thought I ought to explain my shift away from non-biased policy to opinions of a broader vision of what news is. To me there is no such thing as only one direction (and I don't mean the singing group).

What to Expect in the NBA Offseason

This past NBA season proved to be historic. From a Warriors team with more regular season wins than any other team (an likely the greatest percent increase in fan base) to the Cavs coming back from a 3-1 deficit in the NBA Finals to bring a championship back to Cleveland. It was the perfect fairy tale and the NBA as a business couldn't have asked for anything more, but this offseason may prove to live up to the legendary status that was set by the season. Many of the questions on the mind of basketball fans revolve around the movement of the stars around the league. From up and coming stars like Brandon Ingram to established giants like Kevin Durant, the offseason promises mystery and a some shock. To quickly recap a couple big moves that have already taken place, former MVP Derek Rose has been blown from the Windy City and ended up atop the Big Apple as a member of the New York Knicks. Good move? For him, yes. A new start in a new city with a cast with potential in Carmelo Ant...

GOATs

In the wake of the death of Muhammad Ali, the greatest boxer of all time, my mind is reflecting on what it means to be the GOAT (Greatest Of All Time) at something. I feel as though only a small percentage would argue with the fact that Ali was the greatest boxer of all time. Ali himself shouted it from the rooftops and through his bouts in the ring and his life outside the ring he proved that he was more than special. This brings me to my point. There are many special athletes that do special things but it is difficult to win the label of GOAT. The few GOATs can readily be named. In boxing it is Ali. In basketball it is Michael Jordan. In golfing it is Jack Nicklaus. In hockey it is Wayne Gretzky Every other sport is undecided. In baseball there is Ruth, Mantle, Aaron. Football has Montana, Marino, and Manning. Mary Lou had Nadia. Serena has Martina. Ronaldo, Messi, Pele, Beckham. There will always be arguments made for different players and athletes who are admittedly v...

Didn't Fall Start Two Weeks Ago?

Although, I have been a major slacker and haven't written a post in a while, I have not deviated from my love of the games. In fact, my love for football specifically has kept me more glued to others' information than to producing my own. But now is the time for me to change my ways and return to the process by which I forcibly push my personal opinions down the throats of those who voluntarily click on the link to this blog. You are the true MVP here. College and pro football has begun which means that Fall is finally here. Just like baseball in the Spring, it is not a calendar date that determines the seasons but the beginning of a sport. Although yesterday was (according to a piece of paper with numbers on it made by man) the first official day of Autumn, let me bring you up to speed on a few things that have already happened this Fall...this true Fall...in pro football (college will come another day). The Empire That Never Falls Though they cannot be considered a dynas...
