Inception Review



Ok so to start off....   WOW....   WTF did I just see?  I havn't had to think that much since High School Physics.  Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved it.  Just wasn't expecting that rollercoaster ride when I went in. 

To anyone who hasn't seen Inception there are spoilers below so read at your own caution.  Inception more than delivered on it's promise as a mind bending experience.  If you put the somewhat ridiculous premise aside, it almost makes sense.  I think I know when he was dreaming and when he wasn't, but did I really?  Christopher Nolan (Momento, The Dark Knight) knew exactly what the audience was going to be thinking and purposely messed with our heads. 

The idea is that special agents...   will finish later

Oh My God I Just Had a Heart Attack

BOSTON -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was in a two-car accident near his home at about 6:30 a.m. Thursday morning but was unhurt and attended practice later in the day at Gillette Stadium.
Brady arrived at the stadium Thursday morning and was involved in parts of meetings and a walk-through in addition to participating in the team's practice session as the Patriots prepare for Sunday's season opener against the Cincinnati Bengals.  - espn.go.com-


I almost threw up when I read the first sentence.  One year back from a massive overhaul on his left knee and Brady thinks it's ok to drive around rear ending people?  Why does he not have a limo driving him everywhere he goes to ensure his saftey?  We all know between him and his billion dollar model girlfriend that he can afford it.  Someone needs to sit him down tell him to cut the shit.


But seriously we love you Tom.


The Season Starts Today!

Finally...  After eight grueling months of football-less life, the NFL is finally ready to start today.  I finally have a reason to wake up in the morning and get dressed before 3 PM.  The season starts with a rematch of the NFC Championship game from last year.  Vikings vs Saints.  I think I speak for the majority of us when I say I hope Brett Favre gets injured and then we have a close fun game to watch.  If you are a Brett Favre fan you will hate any reference to him on my blog so you may want to leave.  As you may or may not know, I'm a huuuuuuuge Patriots fan and they start things off this Sunday against the Bengals.  Everyone has agreed that the Pat's offense should be fine. Brady is on his second year back from reconstructive knee surgery and some how the freak of a person Wes Welker is back from a blown out knee nine months later.  We've also added two play making tightends in Gronkowski and Hernandes.  But our defense, particularly are secondary,  looks weak.  Well what better team to test this against than the Bengals, whose big offseason acquisition was Terrel Owens.  Combine him with Chad Ochocinco on the opposite side and Carson Palmer distributing the rock and it could be the making of a potent offense (as long as T.O. doesn't bash Palmer on public radio or shoot a gun in the air for a touchdown celebration).  It should give our young secondary some good experience going against a crew of veteran receivers.
