Part 2 Saying goodbye to the bad guy: Heisenberg the modern day Tony Montana

With episode 14 behind us we all saw Hanks final moments and realized how important of a character he was. I completely have a “you never know what you had until it’s gone” moment. As Walt screamed that he’s family and then collapsed to the floor upon watching Hank’s final breath.  We saw just another detachment from his human side as he realized Jesse was under his car and told him another painful secret as he was being carried to his presumed death. As the Nazis decide to spare Jesse my prediction from Part 1 still stands.

Part 1 Saying goodbye to the bad guy: Heisenberg the modern day Tony Montana

As we approach the end of the final season of Breaking Bad it really makes me think about the history of how I felt when I rooted for the bad guy to win, but realized that for the story to end we needed him to not have a happy ending. I spend all week trying to search out which show or movie first made me feel this way. I found that my first experience was Scarface. This film by far really had the recipe where our main character having a tough down and out life now faced with a hunger to have the things he felt he deserves. Walter White worked that way because of his streak of bad luck, crappy jobs, and stale marriage all of which culminated and basically broke him when he was diagnosed with cancer.

Miami Heat 2013 Champions - Lebron James Played Like The Champion He Is

My thoughts of Lebron James and his performance

Another basketball season wrapped up yesterday with the Miami Heat winning back to back years. I have been a basketball fan since I started watching basketball in college. I immediately became involved in every aspect of the sport and regretted not watching it since I was a kid. The one thing I do miss is hearing how people just sat back and watched the magnificent career of Michael Jordan. Watching NBA TV classic game or YouTube highlight reels to me is probably 1% in compared to watching him play live. This morning I realized that I get to be in that type of position now. When I started watching it was during the Kobe/Duncan era and then this young kid from Akron that was revered at the chosen one came in and has delivered. I am not comparing Michael Jordan to Lebron James, I realize that there is no way that James can do the things the MJ did and will never have the same competitive attitude that made Jordan such a phenomenon. But I do get to watch him from his first season to hopefully his last and say “I was there” that I got to watch him in person Game 7 of the ECF in 2012 and that he has made me a huge fan of the game.

The #1 sports topic that even the president talks about

Yes, this will be a blog about Lebron and i know how much the media and pretty much everyone that remotely thinks about sports talks about. I wanted to start by saying that the way the playoffs ended for the cavs was just sad.

Starting a blog

So i decided to start a blog and I started to think about what to make it about. When listing what are are my likes it was either sports or dogs so i decided to go with sports. To get things out of the way I have to state I am a Denver Nuggets and Atlanta Falcons fan so I am biased about them and also I am not a fan of the dolphins, donovan mcnabb, and i kinda find soccer and baseball kinda boring. I know nothing about hockey or baseball so this blog will be more about football and basketball.
