Podcast

Over the past week I've been working on my podcast. I thought this would be hard to edit it. It was actually pretty easy. Any part you didn't want you just highlighted and hit delete. The only problem I had with the pod cast is not taking to loud, and not talking to light. Other then that this project was a good learning experience.

Ottawa Senators

Playoff time is here again for the Pittsburgh Penguins, and look who we draw again in the first round the Ottawa Senators. Now the penguins could have avoided this if they would have won on Sunday, but they didn't and now they play Ottawa again. Now today Ottawa’s coach made a comment saying that we tanked Sunday game to play Ottawa. Now if we did I don't know if that was a good idea because we always struggle against them, but for their coach to make this comment is stupid, so what if we did. Number one it’s a sport, its strategy, if you feel that’s your best matchup to start the playoffs then you would do the same thing. Number two if the pens really did then this then it should give Ottawa all the motivation in world to win. Lastly this is just a comment made by a coach who fired the first coach when he was Gm and put his self in as a coach, and the team is still struggling, so all I can say is go find another way to make excuses of why your team is struggling and why people want to play them.

2008 Chevy Mabliu

Last night I brought a 2008 chevy mabliu. This car has some many neat things. Xm radio, this is first time I've used this, and its pretty cool you can listen to anything you want, when you want, and the best part there is no commericals. The best part is the phone that comes with the car. There is a phone set up with on-star where I can make calls, recieve calls and store numbers. This is pretty cool and not much all the things on-star does. It locate me, give me a report on my cars engine. I think this is awesome and its pretty cool how far cars have come.

Pittsburgh Pirates

So after I watched the penguins last night I decided to turn on the pirates. To my surprise they were up 9 to 4 in the bottom of the ninth, don't you worry though the pirates played liked pirates and blew that lead? They would go on to win in extra innings, but once again you can see are main problem. A lack of pitching. The pirates are bad and in till they go out spend some money on good players, not old washed up players they are going to be horrible like Matt Morris. So to me they escape last night but when the season gets going we will be right where we always are, near the bottom of the league.

Crosby or Malkin

Now that we have both got to see them take over the team for extended amount of time the question comes up who is better. I know a lot of Pittsburgh people would say Crosby because he was here first, and it’s his team, but you have to look at what Malkin has done and maybe with Crosby in the lineup he gets overshadow and loses some playing time. Malkin in 2 and half months put up 50 points and carried the penguins without Crosby, and got them in first place for the first time this season. To me there both great players and I thank god we have both but next time you over look Malkin you might want to consider what he did this season.

Season Ticket waiting List

I'm glad to see the my favorite sport has finally got some attention again in Pittsburgh. The other day I joined the Pittsburgh Penguins season ticket waiting list and there is also a thousand people on it. I was glad to see this because I often hear the hockey is stupid and its not a sport. Well with that many people on the waiting list and 4o straigth sell outs and counting it just shows there is still alot of interest in hockey still.

Microsoft Access

So when I'm not at school and I'm not coaching basketball, I'm working at my other job. At my other job I do security and recptionist type stuff. One of the jobs there is to keep track of the contactor and vistor database. To keep track of this we use microsoft access. Before working here I had no clue what microsoft access was. I have to say after using it for some time now that I like it. See what we do is when a vistor or new contractor comes in we make them sign a sheet and then I enter it into the system. What is nice about this is if some how we enter someone twice it tells me. Other then the database I really haven't done to much else with it, but for right now I like the program.
