1,000,000 Student March and Your Bootstraps

So it's been almost a year (but not quite!) I've been a little busy (understatement of the decade) but an issue that's near and dear to my heart has recently surfaced. I'm not talking about France or other countries under attack (so awful), or about the refugees coming in from Syria (again awful). This is all about this "million student march" and some of the stuff I've seen flying around on that lately.

Ferguson

It's the perfect title. It's really the only thing anyone wants to talk about (or they are going out of there way to not talk about it). I've read a lot of stuff and made some comments on some things, but I kind of want to put my collected thoughts here. If you want to talk about it, let's talk about it. But let's keep it civil.

So you wanna talk about music?

I kinda stopped listening to a lot of newer music shortly after my stint in the record store came to an end, but I can read the interwebs, and occassionaly I'll hear about this new band or that one. I know you all probably hate Justin Beiber, Nickleback, and Coldplay. Maybe your disdain is for Creed, or Taylor Swift and Rebecca Black make you want to tear your own ears off and begin making a nice necklace. Well here's where you're all wrong...

Jimmy Graham loses arbitration

Jimmy Graham officially lost his arbitration hearing and is labeled a "Tight End" for franchise tag purposes. Would anyone like to wager that next CBA the players will insist on the franchise tag being set by wider positions categories rather than by their roster position?

I started this as a facebook post and it just got away from me a bit. I slept way too much and now need something to make me tired, so below is my thoughts on Jimmy Graham.

Wow I Suck!

So it's been a long while (like 6 months) since I've posted anything, mostly cause I've been way too busy, so here's a horribly long update for those who are curious....

Come on man.

So for this post, I'm totally stealing Chris Carter's "Come on man!" shtick from ESPN. The post may cause a little outrage for some, a lot for others, but the hope and intent is to air some of the grievances and toss my small opinion in to the wave of voices. I don't really know that I'll change anyone's mind, and would be open to anyone trying to change mine. If anyone feels like commenting, please keep it civil and focus on the ideas, not the individuals. If you don't want to read anything charged or bent then please skip this and enjoy this wonderful video or this one (heck I think you should watch them anyway cause puppies).

So I Survived

Wow, it's been awhile. Sorry it took so long, I've been a little busy with the craziness that is finals.
