Where Amazing Happens...

Its about that time... one of my favorite times of the entire year. Not because of the weather or because school is usually almost out around this time, but because its time for the NBA playoffs. I've been a fan of the game for as long as I can remember and there's no sport I love watching more than basketball, especially during the playoffs. With that said allow me to step up and make my predictions for this year's post-season. First Round: Cleveland sweeps Detriot; Boston beats Chicago in 6 games; Orlando beats Philadelphia in 6 games; Atlanta beats Miami in 7 games; Los Angeles beats Utah in 5 games; Denver beats New Orleans in 7 games; San Antonio beats Dallas in 7 games; Houston beats Portland in 6 games...... thats my prediction and I'm stickin to it. I'll make my 2nd round predictions when the time comes... eventually the end result will be Kobe showing the world why he is the best player on the planet right now and LeBron showing Kobe that his time on the top is almost up. Lakers sweep Cavs in Finals but Lebron plays a hell of a series. Let us see..

Black Pirates!?

There's been a lot of talk of the Somali pirates lately all throughout the news. I don't know about you but I was rather confused when I first heard of all this. I mean, I didnt even think pirates still existed in the first place.. better yet Black ones!... but hey its 2009, if we can have a Black president, why not have black pirates, leprechauns, and fairies (no underlying meaning, I promise). Although we've been seeing the one side of the whole thing on tv, I've been told that there is a whole other story behind it all on the part of the Somalian people.. I cant get into that cuz I haven't educated myself on it just yet.. I plan to though.. BUT one thing I do know is that when they took that American ship last week, that was a very bad move. Patriotic Americans just dont tolerate that sort of thing as we all know.. they dont take kindly... US patriots will not hesitate to take out a few terrorists/bad guys/illegal immigrants if something of theirs is on the line. Like I said, I dont know too much about the whole situation besides the fact that the pirates messed up by taking an American ship.. "Africans wanna take our ships... we put people like you through 400 years of slavery damn it!!!!" I bet someone somewhere said that to himself..... Yeah I said it!
