NBA

Now that the draft is over in the NFL, all my focus is on basketball. The playoffs are reall making me mad. The Spurs won last night; the Mavs were up by double digits, but ended up losing and I am tired of the Spurs. I 'm tired of Tim Duncan, I like Ginobli, but I want him to play somewhere else, and all of the teams who are supposed to be losing are winning. Oklahoma City should have been gone, Utah should have lost the series, Phoenix should have won the series too. Wade exploded last night, he just couldn't miss from three. I kind of want some players like Melo, Steve Nash, Dirk, Amare, Grant Hill to win a ring because time is not on their side.

conferences

anybody have their conference yet? If so did he destroy your hopes of getting a good grade or just the opposite?

This weekend was pretty good, to start Friday I went to the Brewers game which was a lot of fun as always. The only problem was, the Brewers lost badly to the damn cubs. On Saturday I was in Illinois helping my Grandma get her house ready to be sold in the near future. It went pretty good, but there is still a lot of work to be done. Also note worthy the bucks won on Saturday night making it now a 2-1 series, still down 1 game in the series to Atlanta. The bucks play to night again and lets hope they can square the series up at 2 apiece. Also the Brewers start a new series tonight against the Pirates, which should hopefully be a good thing, cause we usually handle them with an ease. Not to much else going on just another start to another week, and still have things to get done for many classes, fun fun.

Charge of the Light Brigade and Blind Side followup

I saw this and it reminded me, straight up, of the english 102 goals.

Charge of the Light Brigade.”

The Charge of the Light Brigade
Alfred, Lord Tennyson

1.

Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!
"Charge for the guns!" he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

2.

"Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Someone had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

3.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.

4.

Flash'd all their sabres bare,
Flash'd as they turn'd in air,
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while
All the world wonder'd:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro' the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel'd from the sabre stroke
Shatter'd and sunder'd.
Then they rode back, but not
Not the six hundred.

5.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon behind them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well
Came thro' the jaws of Death
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.

6.

When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wondered.
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred.

Quote from Blind Side-

Courage is a hard thing to figure. You can have courage based on a dumb idea or mistake, but you're not supposed to question adults, or your coach or your teacher, because they make the rules. Maybe they know best, but maybe they don't. It all depends on who you are, where you come from. Didn't at least one of the six hundred guys think about giving up, and joining with the other side? I mean, valley of death that's pretty salty stuff. That's why courage it's tricky. Should you always do what others tell you to do? Sometimes you might not even know why you're doing something. I mean any fool can have courage. But honor, that's the real reason for you either do something or you don't. It's who you are and maybe who you want to be. If you die trying for something important, then you have both honor and courage, and that's pretty good. I think that's what the writer was saying, that you should hope for courage and try for honor. And maybe even pray that the people telling you what to do have some, too.

This paper is going to be the end of me. I am so close to finding out how to fix my problems but yet I am no where near it. So, right now I am going to work on just doing citing my sources and giving my brain a rest.

brewers epic fail

So the brewers absolutely sucked this weekend. swept by the cubs is always an embarrassment. We can't score runs against the good teams so i vote we play the pirates every game from here on out. But on a good note the bucks won their first playoff game this year.. mainly because i was in attendance!!! It was an amazing night!

need help!

what do you think is the best way to be sure that the paper will pass 100%? what am doing right now is to go through the paper and see the spots where it fills the requirements for the course goals
