The NFL Draft, My Funny Cat-Dog, and the Week-end in a Nutshell
0 comments Posted by Yoshitoshi at 3:38 PMFriday: After slowly recovering from Thursday, my friend Liza called and we got together for a night of burritos, beer, and a movie. She is a really funny person that brings some other views/perspectives into my life… I really like the way she is and her comments… she is just a very smart person! I had a good time watching The Queen with her and playing with her doggie, Magic. I knew she was a big LOL Gamecock LOL LOL (OMG what a nickname LOL that’s for University of South Carolina) fan, but not to the degree I just found out… this is a picture of her Gamecock (LOL) sanctuary.
Saturday: NFL Draft baby! What a better way to spend a Saturday watching the draft… I didn’t want to spend it alone, eating some Doritos and drinking beer by myself, so after the gym I geared up with my beloved #18 jersey (yes that’s Payton’s a.k.a Future Father of My Baby number) and headed out to Wild Wings in downtown AVL. I was at the bar watching the draft and enjoying a New Castle draft and a burger when the guys around me started to talk to me… Of course, I ended up with invitations to go out… and even they thought I was a “bookie” because of my “extensive” NFL knowledge LOL…. Yeap, it looks like I am a guy’s dream come true LOL… After getting annoyed by the “breeders” display of attention… I left to the Wine Market… had some wine tasting… bought some wine (because you can’t ever had too much of it, right?) and went to Old Europe café… finally, I headed home… Miss Allison called…and we went for a glass of wine to some new wine-café place in downtown… from there… home… watched a weird movie (Birth) and to bed…
** Special Section = My take on the NFL Draft: 1. WTF did Miami do???? I mean I know it would have been ironic to take Brady Quinn after giving up a second round to the Vikings for Daunte… but… Brady is way too good and young (and cute) and Daunte is old coming out from injury (and not as cute as Brady)… 2. Why everyone does hate Brady? All the guys around me were laughing every time they showed him on TV waiting to be drafted, saying “Ha ha take that pretty boy”…I think that he is super cute (to help his cause), he has a good character, he is a leader, he had great stats (except on the Fiesta or Doritos or one of those chips bowls), perhaps the only thing didn’t work on his favor is that he is a Fighting Irish and honestly I can’t stand Notre Dame, the same way it goes with Duke… remember the JJ Redrick haters? I never understood that… I actually liked JJ (and I don’t say it because he is with the Tragic-Magic now) although I can’t stand Dukie… Ok and here I go talking about basketball when I should be talking about football... well it is my blog so I can do that, right? LOL LOL 3. Why do the Lions keep on drafting WR year after year? I mean Calvin Johnson is a heck of an athletic but don't you need a QB to throw to a WR??? 4- Overall, a good draft: most teams drafted in a smart way to fill their needs (expect Texans and Titans, but what do you expect right?), some smart moves by Panthers... 5- Overall draft winner: and the winner is.... Cleveland Browns! Yeah baby, Wright, Brady Quinn, Thomas... top of the notch!
Sunday: Forget about this Sunday!
During last week: here are some pics of The Marvelous Cat-Dog: Faust Picasso… He is really funny; I can’t get tired of his silliness and hyperactivity… I really think he thinks he is a dog… his new favorite toy is a dog bone… Oh yeah, and this is just one of his famous poses when he is drinking water out of the “mysterious magical fountain” as I think that’s what he thinks it is… LOL
Just like I said... it is time to "hang up" the sneakers and re-focus my attention to my second favorite subject... the Indy Colts.Yes, I am a Colts fan and I believe Payton Manning is the greatest QB EVER!!! He rocks my world and I truly wouldn't mind having his baby LOL... but that's another topic...
The Tragic-Magic lost last night at home... but it was just a horrendous lost! Tomorrow we are playing, but I don't feel the game is even worth of watching... Thus, I will be having a beer and Doritos while I am watching the NFL Draft.
I am one of "those" who actually gets excited about the draft! I love watching what player goes to what team, plus (of course) I like to see how my mocking draft compares to the real picks. And then years later I would be telling someone "oh I remember when the Steelers drafted Big Ben, I always liked him because he is from MAC when UCF was on the MAC, in fact, I even saw him playing against UCF in Orlando... I always like him", of course, many people don't even know what MAC stands for or what the deal is but that doesn't stop me to talk about my Big Ben story LOL... or my other good one that I would tell people about "Daunte! Daunte is my boy... a fellow Knight! Yes I bet you didn't know Daunte Culppeper went to UCF... I saw when the Vikings drafted him... but now he is back home with the Fins wearing his Knight jersey number..." LOL LOL I can give you stories like that all the time...
I am not sure who we'll draft (Colts), but I am sure it will work out well just like our last year's pick... Addai... and like previous years.... in fact, I think we could even draft G-W Bush (aka Bubba Bush) and still have a terrific year LOL...
The Playoff are here and it is time to cheer, let the Magic dancers do their routines…
Perhaps we might see them drunk too…
Just like D-Howard will do on Detroit… 
In times like this is when I miss the Magic Kingdom…
Let’s celebrate… it took 4 years…. 4 freaking years!!! I am wearing my Magic Fan 77 jersey today… and I will celebrate these playoffs big time even if we just get wiped out by Detroit… it doesn’t matter (well I will still scream and suffer anyways)…
LET’S GO MAGIC! I BELIEVE IN YOU! LET’S GO D-HOWARD, J-NELSON, T-ARIZA, G-HILL, H-TURK, CARLITOS ARROYO, DARKO, JJ, BO, BATTIE, DOOLING, AND EVERY BLUE-BLACK & GRAY MAGIC ARMY OUT THERE, LET’S MAKE SOME NOISE FOR OUR HOME… THE ORLANDO MAGIC!!!
