Was it really Steve Bartman’s fault? I beg to differ.
Everyone remembers the play when Moisés Alou went to catch the foul ball and was interfered with several fans. I really question if it was really Steve Bartman’s fault. Here’s why.
Bartman made contact with the ball. Yes he did. Was he leaning over like fans do these days like crazy? Not really. Fans these days fall out of their seats and most times fall over the railings on to the field! Bartman, I would honestly say, slightly leaned. He didn’t go bizerk and jump like crazy to catch the ball. And if you look, the scmuck right next to him was even more aggressive than he was! Just because Bartman made physical contact, he gets blamed. The Cubbie faithful needed to point a finger and Steve Bartman was the culprit.
I really question the fans on blaming him. If you must blame someone it should be both fans trying to get the ball. And as a result, Bartman got run out of town, death threats and pretty much his whole life ruined. I’m giving Bartman a free pass here. Fuck the Cubbie faithful Steve. You were just being a fan bro.
Motivational Thursday
People that are obsessed with losing tend to win.
This may sound crazy but I love to lose. You know why? It makes me work harder. It teaches me a lesson and gives me the opportunity to fix my mistakes and ultimately work that much harder. Losing drives my passion to become better and better at what I do. Period.
Bobble of the Day “Luau Loco”
Bobble of the Day
Mascot: Luau Loco
Team: Altoona Curve
Year: 2017
Manufacturer: Alexander Global Promotions
So the Altoona Curve AA team gave out a Luau Loco mascot Bobblehead. It’s sponsored by Landshark which has direct ties to Jimmy Buffet. I have to admit that this is one of the coolest mascot SGA’s I’ve seen in awhile.
It’s got to be noted right off the bat that this is a “Bobble Belly” not a bobblehead. The entire waste bobbles and gives you that “Luau” feel.
Loco is straight chilling playing his guitar with a grass skirt, a Hawaiian shirt, light blue shades and a parrot sitting on his shoulder.
Sniper Rating: This Bobble screams “Summer Time” and makes you want to crack a cold crafty and sit by a fire at night. It’s very sturdy and is definitely an “eye catcher” of certain put on display. Luau Loco scores a solid 9.5 and belongs in anyone’s collection if your a mascot collector.
Enough is enough-NYPD officer killed during July 4th celebrations
A New York police officer was shot in the head execution style, as she sat in her vehicle early Wednesday morning in the Bronx, NY. Officer Myosotis Familia 48, was sitting in her car with her partner as her shift was about to end, when 34 year old Alexander Bonds walked right up to the patrol car window and shot her in the head.
I was planning on posting a “Motivational” blog to start the week after the long 4th of July weekend, but I felt this blog is warranted to bring awareness. This is disgusting. Enough is enough with this bullshit violence. What a way to bring down a fun weekend for all citizens by this senseless act. Just sitting in your car, ending your shift after protecting people and you get killed by some mother fucker? Words cannot describe this tragic event and this shit’s gotta stop. I’m at a loss for words. Just a very sad story but at the same time makes me very angry at this piece of shit. Like, how dark can your soul be to do this?
I guess the only positive thing about this, is when other officers responded, they gunned down the dick bag who did this. Gladly, he took his last breathe then a gunshot ended his pathetic life. Just an evil, evil act.
