Back in Black

So once again like all the other times in my life, its been a shitstorm over the last few months. Id like to take the time to tell you everything that went down, however I do not have enough time or energy. But the bottom line is, I have moved to St. Louis, and am no longer in Kansas City. GF and I broke up, I guess our relationship just finally ran its course. Wish I would have known that it was gonna end this way, because I wouldnt have passed up some other opportunities. After moving to St. Louis, I got a job as a recruiter. And I love it. I screen, qualify, interview, hire and orientate? new employees. Its a pretty cool job and I get to talk to/judge people all day, which is right up my alley. So anyway thats a brief rundown of whats been going on.

Why did I decide to post again? Well for one after GF and I broke up I didnt have steady internet access, and two what better time to make a comeback than after my boys down south took care of some business last night. Let me just say, thats what happens when you step to the SEC. If you would have told me that Auburn would only score 22 points and win, I woulda told you that you are fucking crazy. In a game that had the nations two best offenses, it was the D that proved to be to much. Auburn held James in check for the majority of the game, gave up some big plays, but held stout when it counted especially on a 4th and goal from the one yard line. Now granted oregon came back to tie and had a chance to win, but that right there was the play that sealed oregons fate. I knew after that happened oregon would not win. What a game though, gotta give both teams a lot of credit.

Now the big story with all of this is that everyone says Cam Newton and Auburn cheated, and that Auburn paid cam newton to come play at Auburn. Look everyone has their opinion on this matter, and my gut seems to think there may have been some foul play going on here. BUT untill there are facts about this situation, it needs to be left alone. So much he said she said bullshit out there. I was listening to mike and mike this morning, and Greenie brought up an excellent point, if indeed they find out some stuff about Auburn and the Newtons down the road, should AU be penalized by being stripped of a national title? The NCAA ruled cam ineligible, Auburn appealed and then the NCAA ruled him elegible. Auburn says are we able to play this kid? Is he eligible to play? and the NCAA said yes. So at that point and time, what else should they have done? This is alll assuming Auburn had nothing to do with anything, but if it comes down to it, I do not think they should strip the National Title. But lets focus on the bigger picture here, and that is the cheating that runs rampant through college sports. It happens at ALOT of schools, and the better kids get the more cutthroat these agents, scammers, boosters etc. are going to get. This has been going on for years, and will continue to do so. Wanting to see your team win so bad will cause some people to do some crazy things.

Enough about that. When I return, I am going to take a retrospective look at the NBA draft (and my predictions) and the first half of the season thus far. Should be a good post, I encourage you to read. All one of you. Have a great day all.
