FU Blogger.com!!!
-That's TWICE that stupid Blogger.com has said "internal server error" and lost the post I was trying to make. I was discussing my latest stuff with MVP Baseball 2005, Star Trek First Contact DVD, getting an autograph from a celebrity, among other things. But NOOOOOOOOO stupid Blogger.com fucked up yet another long post.
That's it. I'm moving to another BLOG, preferably Live Journal where I can allow the readers to make comments and leave feedback.
FUCK THIS!

Rock N Roll, Rock N Roll, I'm the King of Rock N Roll...
Excuse the "Viva La Bam" reference, for I've been in a VLB kick lately. Great show and it's good to see new episodes of it on Mtv right now (Sundays @ 10:30 pm). Odd how they've moved "Wildboys" to Mtv2... So much for THAT show.
-I'm enjoying MVP Baseball 2005 for the Gamecube, but could someone please teach me how to hit? I know that holding up means you're swinging a homerun swing while holding down means you're hitting a grounder. Right or left means you're aiming for right or left. But I'm making poor contact with the ball and hitting too many groundouts and flyballs that are out. Can someone help?
-I'm currently reading Rodney Dangerfield's biography... It's hard to read, but not for the penmanship. It's for the one-liners throughout the book! You read about Rodney's life and then in quotes, a classic one liner is there to make you laugh.
-The Star Wars: Episode 3 trailer, at least the 2nd one that was just released, looked FUCKING BADASS!!!!!! Wow, wow, wow! My theory is that George Lucas only wanted to make this 3rd installment, which meant that the first two were somewhat filler (although I really like the Phantom Menace). Attack of the Clones was just awful and this movie looks as though it will redeem that pile of crap. More Emperor, the better! I felt that Episode 2 lacked more Darth Sidious scenes, as he was quite present in the 1st film, giving advice to Darth Maul.
May is going to be a GREAT month. Star Wars, Episode 3 and Dave Chappelle, Season 2 coming out on DVD... FANTASTIC!

MVP Baseball 2005, bitches.
-I traded in some stuff to get a very cheap MVP Baseball 2005 for the Game Cube... I'm liking the features and seriously got off on the Dynasty Mode of creating my own franchise. I could do a fantasy draft ALL DAY LONG, alone... But I've been looking for a good baseball game for years...
I'm having problems, though:
1) I can't hit consistently. Even when I make contact, it's usually hit to a location where it's fielded easily. Advice?
2) Pitching. I throw a bunch of homerun balls. What's with the strike out zone and the colors? Do I throw at the colors or the black blocks?
Help!!!

Column will be late....
I actually had a mini-column typed up but when I posted, the browser went blank (could not connect to server, or whatever). So I hit back and all was released.
FUCK YOU BLOGGER.com!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not going to type it again... I'm running late on my work stuff, as finals week is coming up next week, so the column will be up sometime tomorrow. I have yet to watch RAW Yet.

This BLOG is JUICED!
So I finished up Jose Conseco's book today... WHAT A GREAT BOOK!
-Jose seemed to be very honest about steroid use in baseball and very informative. I know more about steroids now than I ever wanted to. Is Jose truthful about the other players? Considering no libel suits have been filed by those players and considering the case of the late Ken Camineti (sp?) and a Padres GM admitting to suspecting steroid use of him, I'd believe Jose with regards to the steroid stuff.
-Racism in baseball? I personally don't play baseball, nor have I stepped into a lockerroom. Jose suggested that the media always protected white players but were out to get any other races. I don't know? I thought the media was all over Mark McGwire in 1998 during his chase for Roger Maris and they were very critical of the slimmer Jason Giambi last year. Of course, maybe back in the late 1980's or early 1990's, things were different.
-Is this a blackeye to baseball? No... suspected steroid use has been running rampant well before Jose's book came out. It just throws some icing on the cake... Jose has a point about being "blackballed" from baseball, and I agree with him on that as he had a strong year with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays one year. Then, suddenly, no teams had any interest in Jose. Not even a minor league contract!
-The stuff about Madonna is HILARIOUS!
The book is very well written and quite an entertaining/informative read. I highly recommend it to one and all. [ A ] in my gradebook.

It's March already?
Wow... February just blew right by.
-My HIGHLY RECOMMENDED DVD purchase of the week goes out to D.C. Cab, a quality 1980's comedy that was just released on DVD today. It features Mr. T, Bill Maher, Paul Rodiguez, and many other funny comedians at the time (and one of the Baldwins) in a hilarious movie directed by Joel Schumacher. Probably a top 10 movie of all time for yours truly, if not to 5... HILARIOUS stuff about cabdrivers and some of the filthiest language/scenes you'll ever see. "Venus Club and I'm late"... All I need to say.
-Jose Conseco's book, "Juiced", is pretty good so far. He's pulling no punches and at the same time, he's appears to be truthful. The Padres GM confirmed a lot of Conseco's stuff about Ken Camineti (sp?) in that owners/executives suspected steroid use but didn't care to stop it. The guy KNOWS everything about steroids, and his descriptions of the symptoms of steroid usage back up his claims of what stars were using them or possibly using them. I'd recommend checking this book out.
-I was suprised to see Jeff Kent backing up former teammate, Barry Bonds, about steroid use. I figured Kent would trash Bonds for using roids, as he sort of hinted during his time in Houston. However, Kent gave Bonds props even though he has a personal distaste for Bonds. Funny how things work... Then again, Jeff Kent SUCKED when he was a Pirate and suddenly became a HR hitter when he was with the Giants. Go figure?
