Alright, so one week ago, some people at school say "Hey Logan, whodo you got winning the Natl. Title?" I respond, "LSU all the way, Glenn Dorsey is too much of a beast and Todd Boeckman isn't too good in my opinion." Then, the say "HA! Yeah right, Ohio State is so good, and they'll kill!" Now, I'm thinking this: You've stated no facts what-so-ever on why OSU is better, you don't know anything about sports and all you do is root for CRAPPY, LOSING TEAMS like Ohio State. ( 2 straight NCAA National Championship losses, and 1 NCAA Men's National Championship lost. Two of those to Florida.) Last Tuesday, the day after the straight up massacre of Ohio State in the BCS National Championship, I hear not one peep or word about why Ohio State is going to win.
All I have to say to people who think the crappy team is going to win: KNOW YORU FACTS.
That's the ONE thing I hate about people who like sports, they don't know they're facts, and they're over-confident. Seriously, I HATE over-confident people, like Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren. He staed in an interview shown yesterday "Well, we've got experience. The Packers are good, but they've only gotl like 9 guys who've been to the playoffs." WHAT HAPPENED? Seattle lost. Big time. I HATE OVER-CONFIDENT AND SELFISH PEOPLE. Plus, I don't think the Sweater Vest is working out too well for ya Tressel. ;)
Anyways, away from my rant about how Ohio State is a selfish, over-confident University, let's talk about other things, shall we? :)
I bought NCAA Football 08 yesterday, but it was either that, NBA Street Homecourt (heard it's pretty good) or NFL TOur. (I know the reviews haven't been good, but PastaPadre [www.pastapadre.com] has told me it's a fun, competitive game. And that guy KNOWS his facts, so I trust him 100%:D)
It's a really great game, with a deep recruiting feature that let's you create any kind of prospect (I created Tyrelle Pryor for you Bluezy:P) and you recruit players by choosing a certain pitch such as Training Facilities, Academic Prestige, TV exposure, etc. So I created a Dynasty with the Badgers, and I love it. Although I'm REALLY terrible on defense, I love the gameplay and design.
In other news, I was really bored yesterday after watching Gladiator (GREAT MOVIE, I understood it a lot more because the first time I saw it I was 10, but god, the story is AMAZING, and wow, I just HATE the emperor in that movie because he's so selfish and over-confident in himself. [Hey, that guy sounds like Ohio State, what a coincidence!] ) so I went Wikipedia Surfing and I came along the "New Seven Wonders of the World," and I got some cool desktop backgrounds. I'll post the pictures tomorrow.
After watching Gladiator, I really wanted to watch 300 again, so our family is going to watch 300 now (I've already seen it, but I love it) and I'll post those pictures tomorrow!
PS: Google "O Fortuna," by Carl Orff. IT IS THE BEST PIECE of music I've EVER heard.
Have a great week!
