Motivational Wednesday

The problem is, you think you have time. 

Why do you think that time is infinite? Do you not realize that it can be taken from you at any moment? If you died today, what would be remembered of you? Would you be gone and forgotten? The majority live their life as if death will never happen to them. Death is something that we all share, something none of us can escape from. Why are you waiting to start a business or ask a girl out? In reality, you have nothing to lose. If you think you have time, you’re never going to be able to live life to its fullest. Take each day as if it’s going to be your last one. Will you then live differently?

Motivational Tuesday

If you hear people from my past speak of me, keep in mind they are speaking about a person they do not know anymore. 

When you make a true-blooded decision to change your whole life for the better, people start talking. Your old friends will say you have changed. They will say you are different and taking life “too seriously”. They will shit on you and who you have become while telling others about the old you like you have never changed. You have to forget these people. You are different now and no longer a bad individual. Remember that.

Bobble of the Day “Slugger”

Bobble of the Day

Mascot: Slugger

Team: Kansas City Royals

Year: 2015

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

Sluggggggggggger….. What a bad ass mascot huh? A fucking lion! The Royals struck gold in 2015 when they won the World Series and Slugger was behind the whole magic. 

I love the bright yellow lion’s head and the fact that it features a thick brown beard. The uniform is the standard gray colors outlined with royal blue. On this one, Slugger is not wearing cleats but he’s wearing these funky turf shoes which I kind of dig. The base is quite different as it’s not square, circular or rectangle. It’s like a polygon or some shit, but either way I like it. The lettering on top of the base and front are all STICKERS. STICKERS I said. FOCO, you cannot do this to monumental bobbleheads. You wanna do stickers for generic bobbles or a regular season series limited to 2017 or something fine, but don’t do it on a World Series bobble for Christ’s sake. Who knew the Royals would win the title? Who knows when they will ever win one again? Don’t do it on meaningful bobbles that collector’s and fans look forward to. It’s a cheap look and remain a company that doesn’t cut corners. PLEASE!

 

 

Sniper Rating: The Slugger mascot is cool as hell and regardless of the mess with the stickers, this somehow belongs in your collection. Past Slugger mascot bobbles go for big bucks on the bay and this one will be right there in a few years regardless of the stickers. Slugger receives a 8.5 rating and FOCO scores a -7 on this one. 

Motivational Monday

Don’t let people know too much about you.

Most people are an open book. Don’t be like most people. You have the option to keep your mouth shut. Only talk to those who are going to benefit from what you say, even then, be careful. Keep to yourself and only talk when needed. People confuse silence with awkwardness and not realize that you don’t need to speak all the time. There are going to be times when it’s better to say nothing and make sure you understand those times.
