Case of the Mondays?

Here's the cure.....Turn the volume all the way up on the first video and turn the volume all the way down on the second video and enjoy. It works. Trust me. And since they aren't the same run time, you get to watch the second video twice to enjoy the full force of what "the Crue" is bringing in the first video. I should seriously do highlight videos for some NFL team.

Odd Stats about this Blog


So I'm looking at some of the features they offer here with having your own blogosphere platform and I'm just a little bewildered. On our statistics page there is a heading for, "Page Views By Country". We obviously, it is overwhelmingly in favor of the US of A. However, here are a few of the countries and there respected times a page has been viewed......


US - 5946
Canada - 123
Netherlands - 103
Russia - 89
Germany - 70
France - 35
China - 33
UK - 24
Israel - 21
Latvia - 18

Really?!! Latvia - 18!!? Come on Latvia, you can do better than that.

Now my intial instinct is that Mac, being a person who is associated with many peeps in the Military has got some followers who are stationed afar. At least, I hope that is the case.

In addition, page views by operating system?..... And for those of you that aren't sure what that is, are you a MAC or a PC? Well in this case, PC dominates by 73% and MAC viewership is at 22%. No biggie, but one person in this whole big world has viewed this blog on a Wii. So I'm guessing you are just fooling around, maybe playing some Wii sports Bowling or Tennis and decided to look us up. Well, we are flattered and honored oh gamer on a break.

Gonna be a "Hairy" Super Bowl!!








One more week and its all over for this year and possibly next year, barring a labor dispute resolution. There sure is good deal of hair flying around in this game. Its like a barbers dream with this Super Bowl. As for Crockett, I just really don't know which way to pull in this one. I'd like to see the Pack get it done so maybe it would nip all this discussion now and in the future about how Aaron Rodgers lives in Brett Favre's shadow because he hasn't won a Super Bowl. Nothing against Favre, he's great. One of the best ever. I just get sick and tired of all the drama and watching a 30 minute broadcast on the NFL and 25 minutes is some discussion about him and comparing Rodgers to him. I don't think there will ever be another Favre. I just don't think that it is humanly possible to play as many games in a row as he did with all the punishment he has taken over the years. As my good buddy Sweatpea says, " Brett Favre is the toughest SOB in the NFL". Never a truer statement has come from anyone wiser and his records for yardage will hold for a good many years as well.
However, on the flipside, I really like the Steelers. Big Ben is a proven winner, but it seems from listening to the knuckleheads on sports talk radio, he doesn't have the street cred he deserves. I'm sure allot of that comes from his actions off the field. Maybe he just isn't respected as much as say a Brady or a Manning. But Three Super Bowls should be the cure-all for that dilemma. Unless of course, he commits another forcefully sexual act or rolls his motorcycle. I also, like the weapons the Steelers have on the offensive side of the Ball. I guess I am just partial to Mike Wallace because he's a Rebel. And the Steelers D is a tremendous strength as well. I felt like that in August when I took them off the board in the 9th round of my long tenured Fantasy Football league in which Mac is the Commish. They played solid all year long and were a tremendous asset, as I finished 3rd in the league. Mac won the league. Wait what, 1st and 3rd from the same blog? WTH? Could be a conspiracy? However, the Pack D is no pushover and had there team been healthy all year, they probably wouldn't have had to play road warriors to get to the Super Bowl.
I suppose from reading this, one could make the assessment that I am pulling for the Steelers. But, I'm really not. I'm actually cheering for whatever numbers I get on the Big Super Bowl board from our friends at "The Row". Looking forward to the game.


The Mechanic!!



First off, let me just say that I celebrate the entire Jason Statham catalog. Snatch; Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels; The Transporter Franchise; and a lesser know flick called The Bank Job to name a few. All are quality and entertaining to me. This one does not fall off from his previous work. Lotsa action, lotsa shooting, and some fairly unrealistic action stunts. But, its a movie. Its entertainment, so the unrealistic stuff is a non-factor in my book. This is not so much a date movie if you were wanting to catch a flick with your sweetie. It does have possibly one of the coolest beginnings to a film. A rather Excellent utilization of stealth. The ending was a bit of a downer, but then again, how are you gonna end a movie this packed with nonstop blowing shit up. The co-star, Ben Foster is really solid as a "sidekick". I guess being a villain type character is good for him as he did it so well in "3:10 to Yuma". Anyhoo, I liked it and it doesn't drag. No soft spots. Its a mans movie

I may sue!!

I came up with this title track about two years ago at work. You don't believe me! Go ask Terrence(former dishwasher). He works at Wal-mart now. Now granted, I didn't have lyrics and everything, but I was definately going to sample, "I got five on it". I don't know how this leeked out to "Big Cheese". Maybe Terrence did it, maybe not. Anyway, this old news "Big Cheese". Go steal someone elses dreams, chubby!!



Oh and in case you are wondering, Terrence and I came up with about 15 songs from related menu items and the songs to sample. "shrimp juice(pimp juice)", "I got 9 dressings, but French ain't one of them(I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one of them)", "cooking mezzi(riding dirty)", and "fry that chicken(woop that trick)" just to name a few. I saw him the other day and he asked me when we were gonna drop tracks on that album. I guess "Big Cheese" has the rights to our first single now. Shit!

Pig Sooooeeyy!!!


I guess this is worldwide news now. I open up one of my personal fav websites, barstoolsports.com and scroll down and low and behold there is a headline that reads, " Does This Look Like The Face Of A Man Caught F###ing Hogs?" Well, I suppose it does. Hey its nice and all for the hometown to get some recognition, but this really isn't what we had in mind, ya know. Anyway, here is the excert from the barstool..........


GREENWOOD – Authorities said a man who was caught having sex with show hogs will have his case presented to the Leflore County Grand Jury next month. Andrew Lee Nash, 52, was arrested on Dec. 3, 2010 after police set up surveillance cameras in the owner’s stalls near U.S. Highway 82 and the Yazoo River. Greenwood Police Chief Henry Purnell said the hogs were examined by a local veterinarian, during a routine examination, and the owner was told that four of the hogs had a vaginal infection. “The owner of the animals knew someone was messing with his animals,” said Chief Investigator Huntley Nevels. “And the veterinarian confirmed the sexual assault. So, the owner contacted police and the officers staked it out and caught him out there.”


And of course the response from blogger elpresidente:

What type of lunatic has sex with hogs? Like horses I can understand. They kind of have a royal look about them. Kind of strut that ass when they walk. But pigs? Fucking gross. Nothing glamourous about pigs. Oh wait. These were show hogs.? Well I guess that’s a little different story than. Probably all dressed to the 10′s and shit


Way to go Mr. Nash, you have put us on the map?

WELCOME TO MY LIFE

I don't know who, but someone who does the same job as me somewhere made this video called "A day in the life of a CATM troop" (CATM is Combat Arms Training and Maintenance aka. my job) It pretty much sums up most conversations I have on a daily basis with people in the Air Force who joined thinking they would get a desk job and never have to carry a weapon or go to war. You may not get all of it but it at least should get across what I deal with at least once or twice a week. Enjoy.

Its Soul Finger!!!!



As much as I like this, I still can't figure out how they have a white dude in the band. I suppose it because he is playing the organ. Yeah that sounded wrong, but in all seriousness, maybe there wasn't a large group of black people that could rock an organ like whitey back in those days. To each his own.

On a sidenote, there getup is strikingly reminiscent of the attire in one of the greatest movies ever....The Warriors.

You decide for yourselves...

Maybe its just me, but....

......Doesn't this guy look like.......


................This Guy?




In this day and age, it wouldn't shock me if they were related. They both have that Samoan decent or shall I say, look about them. They both make(made) there living being among the best in there profession. And they both like to fly through the air. I suppose its the theatrics that airborne assault brings to the table that makes them appealing. Nonetheless, Jimmy "The Superfly" Snuka is a legend in the realm of Pro Wrestling. And the path Troy is on has him headed in the same direction. Not in wrestling of course. However, maybe a little action after retirement. He wouldn't be the first football player to cross over.









and of course Troy,

Zoey's first trick

Just realized the last post Crockett put up made it 666 total posts. Figured I'd post something to get to the next number. So, here is a vid of Zoey's first trick. She learned it today. She is definitely smarter than me. It took me a week to learn this one.

A case of the Tuesday's



Seems a little fitting considering Auburn just won the National Championship with a Heisman winning Quarterback who spent most of his season amid controversy regarding some improper payments for his services. And these guys are from Seattle and thats close enough to Oregon for me.

And the Dominance Continues....


Well another year in the books and once again, a team from the SEC wins the National Championship in football. 5 years in a row now, might as well be a decade. I know lots of peoples were thinking it was gonna be a high scoring affair and I figured it would have gotten into the thirties at least. Not the case and I kinda got the sense that Auburn could have easily put up 30-40 points had they not shot themselves in the foot so many times. And the flipside of that is Oregon could have won the game with all the opportunities that Auburn gave them. Give Oregon credit, they are scrappy and they got after Auburn and forced some turnovers at key times in the contest. Auburn made plenty of mistakes that could have made the game not close and Oregon just kept hanging around and fighting. It was a good one to watch and I hope you had the under. Till Next year, later.

Pic of the day


Not sure if you've seen this, but in my book, it just doesn't get any better. I happen to love Mrs. Butterworths Syrup. It is quite possibly the unhealthiest syrup on the market, but what syrup is really healthy. It just taste so good when it hits your lips. And I doubt you ever find a better representation of a waffle costume.

Tuesday!!

My boy Chester had a late night the other night and shot me a text entitled, "Youtube Nirvana Love Buzz, don't forget where you came from hoss". And while I don't know if that was a request to get some airplay or not, regardless, I will honor it and assure him that I have not forgot where I came from. Thanks Chester for the text. This one is for you.

Golden Voice



Saw this on "the barstool". This guy does have a great voice. Surely there is some radio station in that area that is gonna jump on this guy. I mean talent like this doesn't come along every day. This guy could be the next Casey Kasem with that magic that comes out when he speaks. If I had a radio station, I'd hire him in a heartbeat, if he passes a drug test.

Owen Maricic!!




If you are like me, then you probably didn't watch much Stanford football this year other than last night. I recall hearing about this guy when he scored two TD's in 13 seconds earlier this year against Notre Dame, but obviously I hadn't watched him play. Well, this is now my boy. A two way player, which is virtually unheard of in this day and age of college football, and this guy is a beast. A fullback and a Linebacker for the Cardinals, and while his stats don't light up the box score, its the things he does on the field and how he plays is what impressed me the most. Couple that with the fact that he is obviously very intelligent, as he has to know all the offensive plays and the defensive plays. And based on what we learned last night, Stanford has some 300 plays in there playbook.
Well I know he had a TD rushing the ball and had roughly 4 yards on 3 carries. In addition, he had a sack in the game and I saw him in on a handfull of tackles. But the thing I really dig about this kid, is the way he blocked. I spent the majority of the game just watching him and Owen made some great blocks. This guy is tough. At fullback and linebacker, you are constantly involved in some type of head-on collision, and Owen was on the field for something like 80-90 plays. That's a whole bunch of hits on the body and lots of punishment both giving and taking.

At this point, who knows what kind of player this guy will be in the NFL, but he is listed as the #2 Fullback in college. So he will probably get an opportunity to take it to the next level. This guys a football player. Bar none. Hope you all saw the game and paid him a little attention, because he did a really good job. Not to mention, the guy rocks a pretty sweet mullet.
