KICKS & KISSES
1. A kiss [ugh!!!! ] to Prince Mongo for a great debate showing. The sad thing is 90% of what Mongo says is correct. A good flush would help Memphis more than anything.Lot had more luck looking for a good man in Sodom than we have looking for an honest politician in Memphis.
2. A kick for Sharon Webb ! I was embarrassed for her. It must have been a lack of preparation , nobody can be that dumb ! She is a member of the Memphis City School board. Lord help us !
3. A kiss for CBHS. They let a mentally challenged old man hang out with them . The Brothers even pretend to listen. It makes an old dude feel good. Thanks Kevin ,Dave & the rest of the gang.
4. A big kick for the whole health care mess. I wish we could get some facts, not scare tatics.
Well, let,keep watching, catch you later

IS IT TIME TO BAIL ?
I have lived in Shelby County for 35 of the last 36 years. It seems more like home than Medina where i grew up. But is it time to pack up, stack up , & hit the road ?
I do not want any part of consolidation with Memphis ! I think Memphis is too far gone to be saved . Shelby County is on the verge of following Memphis over the edge. I can't handle another tax increase . I can't laugh anymore to keep from crying about the corrupt government.
Oh ! but what choice do I have ? I can not get anywhere near the appraised value of my house. My Doctors and hospitals are close. I love my church . What few friends I have are here. Even the strangers I thought were my friends are here .
I hate to just give up. I have too much invested to cut & run. But I don't want to go down with the ship either.

It may take the MEDINA MYSTIC a while to figure this one out!!

SOME HIGH HARD ONES
Diversity is good, that is a lie. No super power has ever had diversity in values or purpose . That is why the USSR collapsed. The diverse groups would not trust each other.It is okay to be diverse in what music you like,the books you read & what you want to eat . That's all- right. A nation better be unified in their core beliefs not diverse . The Bible tells us that we are to be one in JESUS. It is possible to be diverse in little matters but not the Biggies.
Our government is on the take. It's all about the money. The boys in Washington do what puts money in their pocket not what is good for the country. Who did the bailout help ? Not the small investor ! All that money went in the pockets of executives who get millions in bonus .Term limits are the only hope to clean out the mess. Is it time for another revolution?
Sick Willie is not going to run for mayor, that was just a diversion tactic to give Sick Willie time to ensure that half - million pension payout. Now no matter what happens the GREAT ONE has the cash. You know Sick Willie has a PHD . PARANOID HYSTERICAL DISORDER !!!!

TIGER TEARS
It is a sad day in Memphis. The Tigers sins have found them out. The Calipari crop has come to harvest. All of the fears about Cal have come to be.
If Tiger fans would be honest, they knew what they were getting with Cal. A bend all the rules program, hired guns for players,and a lot of talk .
What you get with Cal is a lot of wins, national rankings
& Final Four trips then the posse gets to town & the Little Lizzard disappears in a puff of smoke. The University is left holding the bag.
R.C. & Shirley - Was it worth it ?

OFFENSIVE THINKING
There are 45 football teams in West Tennesee not countin
g Memphis and Shelby county.
15 of those teams run the Spread offense, 10 run the Wing - T / Double Wing , & 9 teams run the I formation. So you will see a variety of styles of offense.

RANDOM SHOTS
1. Little MYRON IS not playing fair. What does he mean ; asking King Willie to take a drug test. King Willie can't pass a drug test
. Willie can't pass anything other than gas !

2. Brett Favre is a good fit for the Vikings . Brett should be able to throw enough to prevent teams from ganging up on Peterson. Favre is worth a try. He could put the Vikings over the top.

3. Is there any hope for public schools ? Is the system too broken to fix ? Should the government get out of the school business ?Private schools have one advantage that makes them better than public schools . THE POWER TO EXCLUDE !!!!!

TIGER TROUBLE
All you Tiger maniacs are getting your panties in a wad over nothing. Woods is still the best in the world. He has had winless Major streaks before. Two of ten in fact. What's wrong ? Two thoughts :
1. Unreal expectations - Tiger is not going to win every Major. He's not . He will be in contention for everyone. If he plays eight more years that is 32 more opportunities . 5 more Majors is realistic.

2. Tiger wins because he hits the ball farther than most. Woods has a big advantage on the Par-5's and the long Par-4' s .The new hybrid clubs are making it possible for others to equal Tiger's distance negating his advantage.

FOOTBALL COACHING TIP
The mistake that 99% of coaches make is they try to do too much. You can't have more plays than you can practice . You don't have the practice time to rep a large number of plays . You only get about 60 snaps per game so if you are running the blast play 15 times you better spend 25% of practice time on the blast play. LESS IS MORE.

RANDOM SHOTS
1. Willie,Willie, are
you going to be Mayor,go to Washington, or be a crackhead. You have done more damage to Memphis than anyone or thing in history. You top the Yellow Fever of days long ago.

2. I don't have a problem with Mike Vick being back in the NFL. I also don't have a problem not watching him. I have no desire to watch Vick.

3. Rick Pitino, How could you be so stupid ? Rick will pay big time for this one . Get ready for abuse on the road & embarrassment at home.

4. Football Coaching Tip - make things as simple as possible for the big guys up front - the 0 - LINE. I developed five concepts for run blocking & two pass protections. This made blocking much more easy . We could work on how to block rather than who.

Thursday Thinking

1. People don't worry about the Mayor's race. The Mayor does not run the city . The developers do. Rusty, Jackie,Henry, & John call all the shots. Wonder why the CA or the news media never calls them out. When is the last time you heard an elected official take on one of these boys. They know better than to bite the hand that feeds them.

2. I wish I knew the facts about health care. So many people saying different things, it is hard to know the truth. I think you can solve most mysteries if you follow the money . The groups that stand to gain are the Doctors, the Hospitals, & the Insurance companies . It is impossible to make a good decison without facts. We will be out big money paying for this.

3. Want to know what Obama & Hillary will do next ? Read RULES FOR RADICALS. That is their playbook.

Wednesday, August 12, 2009

who is in control ?

Been worried or stressed about things ? Is health care , the economy , or Obama overload getting to you ? How about third world wackos with WMDs ? Everyday it is something : the job , spouse, the kids, or the medical exam that wasn't good.
Ready to pitch in your cards ? Just remember this ; JESUS IS STILL IN CHARGE ! That 's right. He is still the One . Want proof ? Look at a Tornado site. Everything gone in seconds . Or 83 inches of rain hundreds missing , entire buildings swept away .DON'T TELL ME THE LORD IS NOT IN CONTROL OF ALL THINGS !
Just trust in JESUS and all the rest will fall in place.

BIG ROCK'S LOCKS - NFL PREDICTIONS

Here are 7 NFL teams who will not win as many games as they did last year. Who they are & why:
1.BRONCOS - 8
2. DOLPHINS - 11
3. COLTS - 12
4. TITANS - 13
5. PANTHERS - 12
6. BUCCANEERS - 9
7. REDSKINS - 8

QB play will prevent the BRONCOS ,TITANS, PANTHERS ,& the BUCCANEERS from reaching last year total .The BUCCANEERS have the worst QB situation in the league.
Playing a division winner's schedule will trip up the DOLPHINS.
The REDSKINS inability to score will do them in. The SKINS were 28 in points s
cored last season.
The COLTS have won 12 or more games for 7 seasons. BUT NOT THIS YEAR. PEYTON MANNING has a new coach & lost two security blankets. TOM & MARVIN are gone.

NEXT TIME TEAMS THAT WILL WIN MORE THAN LAST YEAR.

It is all in the players
1. Steve Spurrier is a great coach. When Steve was at Florida he had better players than everybody but Florida State. Darth Visor was 122 - 27 in his Gator years but was only 5 - 8 vs the Noles. Steve is 48 - 35 at Carolina & Duke. Bobby Bowden had better players than Steve. In 1987 Bowden cut loose on a 14 year run going 152 - 19. Did anybody have better players than Bobby ? Miami did. Bobby was 7-7 vs the Canes during the glory run -- 15 - 21 for his career. See players trump everything!!!

2. The Spread Offense is the rage in high school & college football. All offensive football is based on creating & winning one on one match - ups. To win with the spread you must have two things :
A. a QB who can run and throw . If the QB is not a danger to do both the defense will load up
B. Wide-outs who cannot be covered one on one. If the Defense can cover one on one they can load up on the run.

If you have these two parts you can be good in the Spread


Sunday thoughts

1. Notice how your faith becomes more important as you get older. You are aware of how short your time here is and how fast it passes .

2. Can you say your faith makes a difference in the way you live ? Too many times we fail to mix deeds with words. Would be wonderful to live your life as a Jesus activist.

3. Can you say that your Church has a dailey impact on your community ? Why do Churches perform missions far away rather than the local community ?

4. Does your life cause others to be more or less atracked to Jesus ?

Sports for the day
1. If Randy Shannon does not have a big year Tom Tuberville will lead the Canes next year.

2. Tommy West is the most overpaid coach in college football. TW should sell Obama's health care plan the way he sold Memphis a load of manure.

3. The NFL's top 5 passing teams won 45 games for a 56% winning percentage. The leauge's top 5 rushing teams won 56 games . That is a rate of 70% . where should you develop your offense ?


Wow , never thought I would be a blogger .
thoughts for today
1. Congress & federal workers should be required to have the same health plan they approve for everyone else. you know we taxpayers pick up 75% of the cost.

2. For those on you who don't live in Memphis or Shelby county, you are missing the the greatest clown show ever. All the candidates are terrible but all will be an improvement over Willie .

3. I predict that Willie will beat Cohen in the 9th district That district was always voted on racial lines & will again
