Random Thoughts

I want to start by thanking everyone for their birthday wishes.  This guy is 24 going on 60 (does that mean I can retire and get a senior citizen discount?)  I will be doing something this weekend to celebrate so I hope you all can make it.

I am not an overly big fan of the whole birthday thing.  I appreciate the bday wishes, I always like an excuse to drink, but am I supposed to feel different on May 10th as I do on May 11th?  What this does do is make me even more jealous of Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony and the other 24 year olds who are doing a lot more than me.

I am a little disappointed with where I am at 24, in 3rd or 4th grade I figured by this point I would be playing quarterback for the Cowboys and be rich.  By 7th/8th grade I realized I wouldn't be a pro in anything so figured I would be a coach or a commentator by now.  Then once I got into high school I figured I would hit the lotto and be retired already.  Now that has all failed, I need a reset button and try again cause I could really go for any of those things.

Moving past me getting one step closer to the end (wow that is a negative spin on things, lets try it this way: Now that I am one year wiser).  Anyone who listens to Howard Stern would have heard that this past weekend Gary Dell Abate, also known as Baba Booey threw out the opening pitch at the Mets game.  From the day Gary found out he was going to be throwing out the first pitch he has been nervous as hell.  He hired a trainer to help him and a psychologist to calm him down.  Well Saturday came and he failed miserable, in fact here is the post from one newspaper:

Gary Dell Abate First Pitch, Baba Booey First Pitch -- Long-time Howard Stern producer, Gary Dell'Abate aka Baba Booey, threw out the first pitch at Mets game last night and failed miserably. He said this morning that despite the poor performance, at least the pitch stayed in the television frame. He was there to promote autism awareness, as was Kim Kardashian who did much better...in heels.

The entire morning was spent ripping Gary apart for his pathetic throw.  Artie Lang, long time die hard Yankee fan who was in attendance may have had the best line: "At least Gary wasn't the only fag to pitch for the Mets on Saturday."

-Good News to all the men out there: Rhianna naked pictures!  HIYOOOOO

These pictures were supposedly leaked by BEST BOYFRIEND OF THE YEAR: Chris Brown.  I am very happy about this leak, but how dumb is this girl.  The guy beats the crap out of her (which i a understatement) and now is showing nude pics of her and she stays with him.  This girl is dumb, and no one can stand up for her on this one.  Love can make you do funny things but that usually ends when you cant open either eyes and your face is swollen like Ricky Hatten after being knocked the fuck out.

Next on the list: VP Joe Biden, Syracuse Alum spoke at the Syracuse Graduation this weekend.  First my deep sorrow and sympathy for all my friends who graduated this weekend.  Welcome to the working world, its a shitty ride.  Anyway from the looks of pictures and from what I have heard Syracuse was covered with secret service and  from what I heard he was incredible.  We know the country is in good hands when we have a Syracuse grad as second in command.  More importantly it gives a guy like me a chance....KWINTER 2020- CAUSE WHY NOT!

Quick Sports updates: 

-Zack Grienke is fucking amazing.  This guy has 4 complete games already and an ERA of under 1.  I know it is early but if he does even half of what he is doing now the CY Young is his and the Royals will be hanging around the entire season.  I think someone called that.

-How great is Kobe vs Melo going to be.  Sorry Rockets, you had a nice win the other night, but you just pissed of Kobe, next game is a blowout.  Sorry Mavericks, but your owner trashed Martin's mom and that will not help their chances in this serious.

-Crosby vs Ovechkin has been a great series that will be going to 7 games.  This has helped bring the fans back to hockey and that includes this guy.

-A-Rod welcome back to the big leagues you steroid using Pre-Madonna (I am a Yankee fan by the way).  First pitch back and he sends it a LONG way.  Maybe his "injury" was just him finding a steroid that is undetected.
