My football playoffs

Ok for this I used a 10 team bracket. I allocated automatic bids for BCS conference winners and 4 at large bids. Undefeated teams and teams that won a conference championship game weren't allowed to play in round 1. It's an incentive for teams to play well and for conferences to have a championship. Simple enough. My rankings and the brackets are below...

Rankings (not reflected in tournament seeding)
#1 Alabama*$@
#2 Texas*$@
#3 TCU $vs.
#4 Cincinnati*$
#5 Florida
#6 Boise State$
#7 GT*@
#8 Oregon*
#9 Ohio St*
#10 Iowa

* Auto bid- Conference Winner
$ - Undefeated
@ - Conference championship game Winner

The downside of Facebook status updates...

I am absolutely disgusted by the lack of support for our next president. Those that are conspiracy theorist, embarrassed, waiting to tell you "I told you so", or doing other stupid things should be punished for being either ignorant or just incredibly stupid. That kind of attitude from "liberals" in this country would have them labeled traitors and communist. But is this really a surprise?

In the mean time I'm going to continue to be amazed. We have proof that nothing is impossible.

Sundays

... So here it is. My first real blog. I have decided that Sundays are the first topic.

Now. So its known, I only have a few problems with Sunday. For the most part it has been a pretty good day. Football, ABC's Wide World of Sports, Sunday Red home jerseys for the Braves, NASCAR, lunch, snuggling up with the honey (when applicable), church, The Simpsons, etc.

But for every up there must be a trade off. And Sunday gets hits pretty hard. 

My biggest complaint is because I'm sitting waiting on my next Netflix movie to leave the mail box. Miss that last available post time on Saturday and your movie is sitting waiting to be mailed to Netflix until Monday morning. Post not running on Sunday. How many things could be taken care of if only post would move on Sunday and let those that can take care of business on Sunday take care of business? But instead the US Government decides that everyone needs to take the Chick-Fil-A (I'll get to them) attitude. And not work on sunday. Many hard working individuals have to work sunday. Why not the post? If Johnny Anyworker  has to work on Sunday at Big Lunch Spot why doesn't Fred Lettercarrier? Big Lunch Spot realizes that they need to be open sunday and keep enough staff to carry out their work all week. 

Chick-Fil-A isn't exempt from this lecture. If you click on the FAQs from the chick-fil-a website you will see an answer from the corporate offices as to why they are closed on sundays. *cough*BS*cough* Wow they sold out in this PC age. Plus its not exactly a hassle to operate on sundays. Ask anyone who has ever worked a Sunday but still got 2 days off during the week. Sure your week changes but you evolve and get over it. Chick-fil-a needs to man up and re-admit that they are a christian based company. And thus they will be closed on Sundays. If its

good enough for Snooky's (its an awesome local restaurant) then its good enough for anybody. I mean seriously on Snooky's door showing hours of operation. "Sunday - See you in church" Man Up!

There are few more things that could be fixed on sunday including... no alcohol sales and the dead afternoon after football season ends but I'll leave that for later.

- Peace,

First Entry

Why hello! I am Ant and this is my new blog. I created to blog to simply have an area to share my thoughts and ideas on real topics and write it all down. I plan on talking about every thing from Aaron, Hank to Zelda but seriously talking about issues that affect both the world and my life such as social and political issues. I welcome any topic ideas and will try to speak about them when possible.

Why should you care? Well thats tough. I like to think I have an interesting opinion on many topics. And am not closed minded enough to think that I am always correct in my thoughts. Challenge me and I will challenge you. Its a give and take and we can both learn something from each other.

You will learn how and why I think the way I do as you continue to read, as will I, as I continue to write. 

Until I post again...
