Friday thoughts

Technorati Profile

Well another week is coming to an end and I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend, or at least as relaxing of a weekend one can have when they are working. Hope that everyone out there has a good weekend!

When Iran comes to town

With the recent visit of the Iranian president to the UN it is clearly visible on just how polarized our two cultures really are. Here is a seemingly educated man who denies many simple truths that are known to exist in this world of ours (Such as Gays in Iran, the Holocaust, etc.). But this is a direct result of what the religious State of Iran wants. As long as this is what is taught and this is what is believed by its citizens then they have total control, and that is really what everything ultimately boils down too. Iran and the radical Muslim world fear that if western society takes root in the middle east then they will lose their strangle hold over their populous. Thus you have these radical people that want to bring death to all infidels all in the name of a religion that is supposed to be based on love. The irony of it all is probably what gets me the most, especially when it was Muhammad that said the Muslims pray to the same God and the Jews and the Christians.

Seeing as the world is now more of a global society I cannot see how Iran can exist unless it changes. And right now those changes are coming from within in the form of the next generation that does not want to live as they have been for the past 40 years. One of the greatest benefits of the information age is that it has been able to open the eyes of people in search of knowledge faster then at any other point in history. As such it is only a matter of time before knowledge will win the day. After all Knowledge truly is power.

NFL in full swing

Week 3 has proved to be the week where the "For Real" teams are starting to become clearly visible. Looks like the Patriots are by Far the class of the NFL and if they keep performing like they have been we might see another championship heading to Foxboro. Also, the Colts are nothing to shake a stick at and I have a feeling we will be seeing these two powerhouses slug it out when it comes time for the AFC championship. As for the NFC it looks like the Cowboys has stepped up to take the lead as the most dominate team in this conference. While there are some weak spots on defense for the Cowboys (need a more consistent secondary), their Offense is second to none. Granted it is early in the Season but as of week 3 my pick for the Super bowl is the Patriots vs. the Cowboys. Stand by for week 5 when the Cowboys host the New England Patriots in TX!

Another great week for Football

Looks like Green Bay is for real this year. As much as I would like to see San Diego get moving in a positive direction it is nice to see Farve play like he has been playing. Hopefully the Cowboys can follow suit later on this evening when they play the Bears. They still have some gaps on the defensive side of the ball but I am confident Wade Phillips will be able to patch those up as "The Boys" continue to get it done in the NFC. Post a comment and let me know what you think about your favorite team.

Hurray for Football Season!!!!!!!: Are the Cowboys for Real?

Are the Cowboys for Real?

Like many TRUE Cowboys fans I have been through the highs and the lows with "America's Team" and it is like a breath of fresh air to see that this years squad might be the next one to get us to the Superbowl. That is of course if Wade Phillips can get the defense to start firing on all cylinders. Granted there were are few key players out this past weekend, but that is no excuse to let anyone rack up 35 points on you. Hopefully, Greg Ellis and Terence Newman will be back in action before too long and we can see just how for real this team really is.

Ahhh Football Season

like so many Red Blooded Americans I am an avid football fan. As such this is one of the most anticipated times of the year for me. It is ever so interesting just how something like a sport can bring so many different people together in one place at one time. Perhaps it is just the nature of all humans to find some common ground on which to relate or it could be that sense of belonging that comes with claiming a "Team" as one to root for. With the ever increasing technological complexity of modern society it is becoming harder and harder for people to connect on the most basic of levels . . . and unfortunately those are the levels to where most of the quality relationship develop from. So it is nice that there are still those few outlets which enable all of us to come together and support the team of our choosing.
