Good morning everybody. I am actually having a real good week so a little run down of whats happened.
Aced my 11A calculus midterm which means a ton because im on disqualification pending, one more F and im bounced out of college. So this is great.
A's gave up Bonds number 714, I have mixed emotions about the subject but I really did not want my favorite team to give up such a historical home run. Bonds is an amazing player I just really wish he could have done it with out the steroid contreversay but it is another day and age then when Babe Ruth was playing. Hopefully the A's will be able to take the rubber game today.
I wanted to go to the A's game today but it was sold out. I STILL have not made it to a game this year. My buddies and I will probalby be going on the last 2 dollar wednesday of the school year too bad it will be the A's against the Royals. But hey a baseball game is a baseball game, it should be a blast.
I think I have figured out my living situation for the summer, I am going back home to look at apartments next week. The place I am looking at are pretty nice, they have their own basketball court and pool so it would be a nice place to live for the summer.
My baby (car) needs its first oil change and maintanence. Its a nice deal that the dealership will do my first one for free.
Y4L you are going to love the direct tv recorder. My room mate has tivo for the main TV and that thing is wonderful. I take it the two are basically the same, you will never have to miss your favorite television show again. And fast forwarding commericials is the best part.
And about all this soccer stuff, hey I love baseball but soccer is a great sport. I am very surprised that it has not caught on like it has across the world. I think it is mainly to the fact that when watching the game on television it is extremely different than the sports Americans are used to watching. It is slower than football and basketball and the game does not allow for close up shots on the action. I grew up on soccer and I am stokefd for the world cup. The Barcelona-Arsenal premier league championship was a great game, too bad the refs screwed it up by tossing Arsenal's goalie shortly in to the game.
100 dollar buy in NL hold em tournament, sounds great. There are not enough poker games around UCSC to satisfy my needs, and after about half a year of online poker I have sworn off of it. Never before have I seen boards with so many outs on it. I think I have figured it out; the more outs on the board the more likely people are to play the pot after the flop and this leads to a larger rake for the poker companies.
And Uncle Mo get better.
Hope everyone out their enjoys the new week.
