Back to Blogging...

Yeah Yeah Yeah. We have heard this a million times. You are going to start blogging again and sorry for not blogging. Whatever!

Why should you believe me this time? I finally have internet that I am paying for and actually works. I also want to have some website of my own that I can write about what I enjoy and what I want to you to enjoy. Also, this year, I am anticipating on a lot of things changing in my life. Why not put it online for everyone to enjoy with me.

So for the first blog back I am going to talk about something I enjoy doing and something I will be blogging about a lot.

~Gaming~

This is a picture I took of something I actually learned to do working at one of my jobs. Here I replaced a 72-Bit chip in an original Nintendo Entertainment System. I really enjoy doing this. I want to learn how to fix other systems as well. I am just afraid of working on a $250 to $300 system so I have not started yet. Taking things apart and trying to put them back together has been something I have enjoyed my whole life. I believe that is why I still to this day love to play with Lego's.

I want to keep this one short with it being my first blog back. Please Please Please leave comments and if you need your NES fixed just give me a call.

Draft Continued

17. New England Patriots: JJ Watt DE
Who they should pick: Mike Pouncey C/G
JJ is going to be an amazing player and would definitely help them out immediately. But with Dan Koppen turning 32 this year, Pouncey would be able to sit for a year or even be put somewhere is on the line and be in line to replace Dan.

18. San Diego Chargers: Cameron Jordan DE
Who they should pick: Cameron Jordan DE
We agree on this pick, the Chargers need that elite pass rusher and Jordan is the next best available.

19. New York Giants: Nate Solder T
Who they should pick: Anthony Castonzo T
Most definitely need to tackle they just choose the wrong one. Solder will be good, but overall Castonzo will end up being the better tackle.

20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Aldon Smith DE/LB
Who they should pick: Jimmy Smith CB
The Bucs only have a few places they need to fill to become that elite team to beat. Aldon could help them out right away, I just feel they need to get that elite corner to lock the WR in their division.

21. Kansas City Chiefs: Mike Pouncey C/G
Who they should pick: Mikey Pouncey C/G
The Chiefs are exstatic to see Pouncey still available and pick him in 10 seconds.

22. Indianapolis Colts: Anthony Castonzo T
Who they should pick: Anthony Castonzo T
Once again, two teams in a row are super pumped to get the guy they did not think would have been available in your spot. Castonzo will be an immediate impact player.

23. Philadelphia Eagles: Adrian Clayborn DE
Who they should pick: Adrian Clayborn DE
The draft of the defensive lineman continues with the Eagles pick of Clayborn. They think of many other players in this pick, but keep coming back to Clayborn. If this pick is anything different it would not surprise with the way Andy Reid likes to stack up on offensive players.

24. New Orleans Saints: Gabe Carimi T
Who they should pick: Gabe Carimi T
We both agree on this pick. The Saints did not expect Gabe to still be available and an amazing tackle to protect Drew at the number 24 spot in the draft the Saints can not pass. Drew is stoked!

25. Seattle Seahawks: Phil Taylor DT
Who they should pick: Danny Watkins G
Once again, Seattle messing up and missing on the true position they need. The Seattle line is one of the worst in the NFL.

26. Baltimore Ravens: Aaron Williams CB
Who they should pick: Aaron Williams CB
The Ravens are a very smart organization and they realize they need the most help in their secondary. Williams is the next best secondary player and they can not pass on him.

27. Atlanta Falcons: Kyle Rudolph TE
Who they should pick: Kyle Rudolph TE
Not just because I am a huge fan of Rudy and ND, the Falcons want to get Matt Ryan another weapon besides Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez is getting up there in age. Although Rudy is already to play in the NFL, what better option than Tony to sit back, watch and learn. The Falcons will not regret this pick.

28. New England Patriots: Danny Watkins G
Who they should pick: Danny Watkins G
Although I do believe the Patriots will try to trade this pick, they can not pass on Watkins. With the Patriots doing everything they can to protect Brady and keep him healthy as long as they can. (Do not be surprised to see them pick a QB in this slot)

29. Chicago Bears: Derek Sherrod T
Who they should pick: Derek Sherrod T
Everyone knows the Bears have to get help on the offensive line.

30. New York Jets: Muhammed Wilkerson DE
Who they should pick: Muhammed Wilkerson DE
When your as big and as physical as Wilkerson you are bound to be with Rex and his defense.

31. Pittsburgh Steelers: Brandon Harris CB
Who they should pick: Brandon Harris CB
The only reason the Steelers lost in the Superbowl last year is because of their poor secondary. With the addition of Harris and started immediately or close to it, by the end of the season the Steelers are going to once again be an elite team.

32. Green Bay Packers: Cameron Heyward DE
Who they should pick: Brooks Reed DE
The Packers have to get bigger and faster on the line and go with Heyward. They messed up on not picking Reed, who is Clay Matthews in the making.

Lets see how accurate my first NFL Draft predictions are

One New Idea

SPORTS!!!
My first post will be about this years NFL Draft. There will be the player I believe the team will take and then the player I believe the team should take.

1. Carolina Panthers: Cam Newton QB
Who they should take: Marcell Dareus DT
Not even because I am a Notre Dame football fan, I think you have to give Jimmy Clausen more than a year to prove himself. The only good receiver he had was Steve Smith and quite frankly he is getting old and a ton of injuries are hurting him. I do not think Jimmy is in fact a franchise QB. However if you draft a qb in the second round you have to give that guy a chance. I also do not think Cam is a franchise QB in the NFL.

2. Denver Broncos: Marcell Dareus DT
Who they should take: Marcell Dareus DT
I agree with who they will and who they should pick. Marcell is going to be an amazing player. I could see them picking Patrick Peterson as well. With Patrick and Champ they would have the best defensive back tandem in the league.

3. Buffalo Bills: Von Miller LB
Who they should take: Blaine Gabbert QB
Do not get me wrong, Von Miller is one of the greatest players in this years draft and I would love to have him on my team. However they should draft a qb and the best qb in this draft will still available for them. Let Fitzpatrick teach Gabbert the few things he needs to learn and then hand the team over to him when the Bills have only won 1 of their first 8 games.

4. Cincinnati Bengals: A.J. Green WR
Who they should pick: Blaine Gabbert QB
I really think the Bengals do not believe Carson when he says he wants out or he is going to retire. So I think they are going to do everything they can in this draft to try and keep him here. What better way to do that then to get the best WR. I believe Carson is serious though, and they should go with the safe pick and getting the best QB available in the draft.

5. Arizona Cardinals: Blaine Gabbert QB
Who they should pick: Blaine Gabbert QB
They are going to be thrilled to see Gabbert still available. Dream come true!

6. Cleveland Browns: Julio Jones WR
Who they should pick: Julio Jones WR
Two in a row agreeing on. This never happens. Their biggest need is a pass rusher and they could go with Robert Quinn but instead with the big guns they have choosing the picks now they will do anything to make Colt a better QB. (Biggest rise in wins for a team this coming year and they make the playoffs)

7. San Francisco 49ers: Patrick Peterson CB
Who they should pick: Patrick Peterson CB
What! Three in a row! The 49ers are only a few missing pieces away from being an elite team and with the pick of Peterson they just got one of those pieces.

8. TENNESSEE TITANS: Nick Fairley DT
Who they should pick: Andy Dalton QB
When the Titans do choose Fairley, I am going to be exstatic, however, we ABSOLUTELY NEED a QB. I believe Andy is the best QB in this draft class. Laugh at me all you want but he has proven himself year in and year out. Do not forget Flacco when he was picked and how he is turning out.

9. Dallas Cowboys: Tyron Smith T
Who they should pick: Mike Pouncey C/G
No doubt they need help on the O line, I just believe Tyron is a little overrated and Pouncey to me has proven he will be great in the NFL.

10. Washington Redskins: Robert Quinn DE
Who they should pick: Mike Pouney C/G
I do believe Quinn will be good in the NFL I just do not believe he will great until a couple years. The safer pick here is Pouncey.

11. Houston Texans: Prince Amukamara CB
Who they should pick: Prince Amukamara CB
The Texans need help more than anything and anybody in the defensive passing game. They are so happy to have Prince to help them with that.

12. Minnesota Vikings: Jake Locker QB
Who they should pick: Andy Dalton QB
With Favre finally leaving, the Vikings have to reach out and get a franchise QB. I do think Jake will be a great QB but still I believe Andy is going to the best QB out of this draft. Maybe Andy will be available for us in the second round.

13. Detroit Lions: Da'Quan Bowers DE
Who they should pick: Da'Quan Bowers DE
Even though he is going to be a huge medical risk, I can not deny his skill and talent. Having Suh and Bowers (who was going to be picked first overall) the Lions D-line is going to be hard to compete against. Yep, the Lions!

14. St. Louis Rams: Corey Liuget DT
Who they should pick: Robert Quinn
I know they want more in the middle but as good as Quinn was/is you can not let him go any further than this.

15. Miami Dolphins: Andy Dalton QB
Who they should pick: Mark Ingram RB
Dolphins were reportedly very impressed with Andy. I know they will not pick Mark but with all the injuries their running backs have had they need to pick him. A former Heisman winner falling in your lap to help out Chad Henne. I do not like Chad as he came out of Michigan but when they gave him a chance he was pretty darn goood.

16. Jacksonville Jaquars: Ryan Kerrigan DE
Who they should pick: Aldon Smith DE
Okay, so we both agree they need a DE, however I think Kerrigan is a little overrated. Aldon Smith in my opinion will be as good as the top DE picked in this draft.

The other half will be coming before Thursday...stay tuned

Something New

So, I did have an idea of what I was going to focus my blogging on, but I thought of a better idea. In an attempt to see how many people actually read my blog and to keep the interest of the few who do read it, I am going to ask you.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

Anything you want me to blog about. Just leave a comment and let me know.

New Nintendo Console

Nope, I am not talking about the 3DS. IGN reported today that Nintendo will reveal a new system at E3 this year!

Not much has been said yet. However it is reported to be "HD resolutions" and capable of running 1080p. It will also be backwards compatible with current Wii games.

Last Wednesdays Word

Todays word: Finish

Definition from dictionary.com: to bring (something) to an end or to completion

My definition of finish is to accomplish anything you set your mind to do.

Finish is a weird word. It can make you happy or sad. To finish school and start a new job will make you happy. However, to finish your honeymoon and have to come back home is going to make you sad.

I really like this picture I found. It really makes sense when you think about it. Always when you finish something you are going to start another something. Wednesdays word for me is finished. I feel as though I accomplished what I wanted to do and am ready to "start" something new with the blog. I am thinking of a few different ideas so make sure you stop by to check it out.
