yeah so i havent felt very bloggy lately. maybe because my blogg is sore, i think i slept on it wrong. and also im low on blogg, i have to get to that blogg specialty store with the super small parking lot. plus we are still dealing with cindis blogg, which is making her nauseuos. then i ate something bloggy the other night that made me blogg all day, couldnt go anywhere. then there are the annoying bloggs all over the dog, its compound wide. well you understand, we all have blogg to deal with.
so the mens u.s. basketball team proved me right again! check the stats here
so spain was supposed to be the toughest challenge in the first round, not so. what started out as a possible good game do to lots of fouls being called on the u.s. quickly became just another rout in a bunch of games that are nothing more than a preview of the gold medal winners. its done, just hand us the medal now.
the only interesting thing about this game was the adjustment the u.s. meade to how the refs were calling it. in previous games the refs had been calling the game as a truly international game. meaning the defensive player is able to make more hands on contact with the ball handler, it didnt go quite that way today. once the u.s. figured that out, it was all over. and any team that can make serious adjustments on the fly is going to win.
on that topic(the international game) i would love to see more of those rules put into the nba. apparently david stern(nba commissioner) is talking to fiba( the ruling body for the international community) about changing rules and lane shape(to rectangular) and same ball, to make the game closer to nba. hopefully that means loose rules for nba to get the game back to a more physical one.
well thats all for now, enjoy the rest of the olympics.
so have you guys been watching the olympics? i have, and i have been watching a lot of boxing mainly because the coverage on tv only allows me to watch boxing in the middle of the day. the coverage is terrible but thats another post. what im angry about is the scoring in olympic boxing. its archaic and arbitrary. there are human judges that have to hit a button when they “see” a landed punch to score for the boxer. the problem is all the judges have to hit the button with in something like 3 seconds to score, also they are deciding whats a landed or not landed punch, and obviously this doesnt happen correctly. ive watched so many bouts where one boxer has landed 4-5 punches and not 1 was counted. the announcers have even commented that this type of scoring isnt working. come on its time to get modern and do a different type of scoring thats more even and fair to the boxers. the winners arent really winners if its up to some jerk off pressing a button when he or she thinks they saw a punch land.
so has anybody seen those chevy aveo commercials? the one where somebody pulls up to a gas pump and they go into the station but dont by gas and the pump f’s with the car. those commercials. i hate those because if yu are not buying gas then why the hell are you taking up space at the frickin pump. no one parks at a pump if you are not getting gas. plus if you do take up a space at the pump with out buying gas you deserve to be messed with. i loose all the humor by that little parking over site. the writers suck.
hey writers just think it through a little bit and maybe you could have a better commercial. of course they arent real writers, the ad agency that is making the commercial is the writer of the commercial. ad people may have great concepts but they fail to notice lots of the little things that make commercials either great or suck.
okay done. later!
now watch this!
not sure what its saying if its even real but if you can get through the whole thing you just a freaky as the bird. listen close.
okay i know that mail gets delivered to different address’ all the time, but give me a break! how hard is it to look at the adress on the envelope and tell the difference between a 1 and a 8? not hard. delivering mail for the usps is the fast food job of the delivery world. so what that really means is the people doing it dont give a crap what they do, they just want to get the stuff out of their bags so their day can be done. the postal service has not helped these carriers buy cutting the amount of carriers and increasing the amount of letters and other junk mail crap each carrier has to haul around. but then again thats government efficiency for ya! plus the office it self doesnt pay attention to requests from its customers, my wife and i have gone out of town had had our mail stopped, only to get home after 4 weeks had had 4 week worth of mail stuffed into a box that can barely handle 1 day worth of mail. this also happened to our neighbors. now here is 2 things, 1 we got a confirmation # so we did our part right, 2 if you are delivering mail to the same place for a month and you see its not getting picked up wouldnt you, just as a human being, maybe check with the branch you work at on the status of the address? or even knock on the door, check if the occupant is okay? but of course the kid behind the counter at mcdonalds doesnt give a crap if you get sweet-n-sour or bar-b-q sauce with your nuggets. customer service has gone out the window and i cant blame the carrier totally, but you should still try and do your job correctly. seriously, i googled usps failures and found tons of delivery problems, mainly on the carrier end. what if they are delivering peoples pay checks to the wrong addy and the person that gets it just throws it away? if you have ever had to track down a pay check you know its not easy, plus they usually take money out of your check to reissue it.
its not only usps, the ups guys arent that great either, they dont even have a giant bag of crap on their backs. 2 days in a row they have delivered to the wrong place and thats worse cause who ever gets a box can open it and maybe find something valuable that you have to fill a bunch of forms that ups says they delivered to the right palce so it must have been stolen. now you have to convince the place you bought it from that you never received it. what a pain in the ass!!!
oaky done!
take this and search for more! trust me its worth it! their the meat men and you suck!
