I think the Willis/Cabrera trade puts us over the top! I think we have to be one of the favorites to win it all in 2008!
Favorite MomentKirk Gibson hobbling to bat int he World Series. Seeing him barely swing the bat and hit that homerun... WOW! The announcer got it right... "I don't believe what I just saw!" Neither did I.
Worst MomentChris Webber calling a timeout at the end of the championship game with the fab 5. What a dumbass. He could have just taken the ball tot he hoop... nearly uncontested. Idiot!
Favorite AthletesI am only doing current players as of 2007:
Football - Tom Brady... my boy from UofM. He is the f'in man!
Baseball - Another tough one... but I have to go with Bonds. I have always been a fan, and alwasy will be. I know he is/was juiced for a while, but I don't give a shit. Baseball knew about it, and they should have done something about it. But until he offically fails a test... STFU and leave him alone.
Basketball - Lebron James is the shit. He is in another universe. If he got another star to help him... he would be racking up the championships.
Hockey - Nic Lidstrom. He is Mr. Consistent. He was on the Redwings during their dynasty. He is always near the the lead in +/-, minutes played, assists, and yet has close tot he fewest penalty minutes in the league. Absolutely amazing.
Least Favorite AthletesAnyone on the Yankees or Red Sox! I am so sick of hearing about them and their rivalry... blah blah blah. STFU already!!!
MoviesMost any Comedies. A few favorites include Tommy Boy, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison.
Some other favorites are Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, Saving Private Ryan.
TVI am a reality show junkie... and I actually admit it. I also like The Office (US version), Simpsons, and Suvivorman.
MusicI am a classic rock fan mostly, but I listen to pretty much everything. I used to be a DJ so I had to learn to like everything. lol
Some top bands would be DMB, GNR, Toby Keith...
BooksI am not much of a reader to be honest with you.
Video GamesMainly sports games. I do like the occasional FPS or role-playing games though. I own a nice PC and used to be really into MMORGs like Wow and EQ2. I own a PS3, and a Wii... soon I will be getting a Xbox360... but just haven't gotten around to it yet.
MagazinesComputer Games, Electronic Games, Playboy, Maxim
SnacksPizza of course. I am a big Italian food fan. My favorite chips are anything baked. Less fat, and tastes so damn good!
DrinksPretty much anything diet. I prefer bottled water though. I also have a hard time turning down a beer. Especially if it an Oberon!
