Happy Memorial Day

GO thank a veteran and enjoy your freedom today.

Louis Coleman update

Been a solid go for the rookie this far. Sure he got saddled with a couple of losses last week but he has done well for himself and for the ballclub despite the Royals battling through some losing streaks. On the season, Louis has piched in 16.2 innings with an era of 2.16, scattered 9 hits while striking out 19. He has walked 10 batters, but 3 were intentional. Hopefully this recent win by the ballclub can get them back on track and on to some winning ways. In addition, maybe Louis will get some opportunities to help the ballclub win these games by doing that voodoo that he does. We'll keep you posted as the season progresses.

Heat vs Mavs

Pick your poison here in what will probably be a great Finals. After last season and "The Decision", which was fairly pretentious, you either love LeBron or you hate him. Probably the same can be said for D-Wade and Bosh as well. Either way, I think, as a whole, peeps like Dirk and they probably view him and the Mavs as underdogs. I'm sure the Mavs don't mind that role because the pressure is essentially on the Heat and there 3 headed monster. Personally I am torn on who to pull for because a part of me wants Dirk to get him a ring, but there is this other part that loves dominance and for LeBron to win a ring this year, I think it would only put thinkgs in motion for future dominance. Like Bulls multiple Three-peat dominance in the Jordan era. Just move Bitch, get out the way ya know. Anyhoo, we like the Heat in 6 and we will not address, nor dignify Scottie Pippens assessment that LeBron is better than Jordan. When he gets to 6 titles, then we'll talk. Until then, its ignorant to even suggest the idea.

The Macho Man- Randy Savage- OH YEAH!!!

I know I haven't posted in a good long while and this blog is essentially a fish out of water, just gasping for its last breath of air before dying and I hate that this is my first post in a while. But, The Macho Man Randy Savage has passed away. This is tragic for any little kid growing up in the 80's that looked forward to Saturday morning wrestling and eventually Monday nights. The Macho Man was one of the good guys back in those days. He wasn't a Razor Ramon turncoat MF'r. He ran with the Hulkster and together they were stars. He even won a couple of WWF Titles. He was no slouch. Besides, he had the Lovely, Miss Elizabeth in his corner. Sure, she couldn't pull you out of a jam like Bobby "The Brain" Heenan or Jimmy "Mouth of the South" Hart, but she really was the first piece of eye candy in a male dominated "sport" and has to be a pioneer for all these women that are commonplace in Wrastlin' nowadays. I haven't watched Wrestling in a while, its just not my bag anymore, but I did used to cheer for this guy. The apparent cause of death was car accident that occured after an apparent heart attack. The Macho Man was 58 years old and one can imagine that is a ripe old age considering the profession he was in for many years and god knows what kind of uppers, downers and in-betweeners he took to sustain himself in peak condition to hit the mat for all those years. Most people will probably remember him for "snapping into a slim jim" and rightfully so, he was the face and spokesperson for there campaign for many years and did his duties well. Couldn't have been to hard, he just played himself. Anyway, farewell Macho Man

SEAL TEAM 6

The military team that killed Osama Bin Laden is an elite special forces group unofficially called Seal Team 6.
Officially, the team's name is classified and not available to the public, technically there is no team 6. A Tier-One counter-terrorism force similar to the Army's elusive Delta group, Team 6's mission rarely make it to paper much less the newspaper.
It shows how important the publicity about Bin Laden's killing is to the U.S. that this morning, Team 6 is front pages news.
The members of Team 6 are all "black" operatives. They exist outside military protocol, engage in operations that are at the highest level of classification and often outside the boundaries of international law. To maintain plausible deniability in case they are caught, records of black operations are rarely, if ever, kept.
The development of SEAL Team 6 was in direct response to the 1980 attempt to rescue the American hostages held in Iran. The mission was a terrific failure that fell apart at many points and illustrated the need for a dedicated counter-terrorist team capable of operating with the utmost secrecy.
The Team was labeled 6 at the time to confuse Soviet intelligence about the number of SEAL teams in operation at the time. There were only two others.
Team 6 poached the top operatives from other SEAL units and trained them even more intensely from there. Even among proven SEAL's the attrition rate for Team 6 is reported to be nearly half.
There are no names available for current Team 6 members, but the CIA does recruit heavily from their numbers for their Special Operations Group, so it makes sense that they were chosen to work with the CIA on this mission.
Team 6 is normally devoted to missions with maritime authority: ship rescues, oil rigs, naval bases or land bases accessible by water. There are no waterways near Bin Laden's compound.
When a former Navy SEAL was called for a comment about this article all he could say was: "You know I'd love to help you man, but I can't say a word about Team 6. There is no Team 6."
