Harry Kalas: Thank You!

Not only did the Philadelphia Phillies, Major League Baseball, and NFL Films lose one of the most memorable sports voices ever, but baseball fans of the past, present, and future have lost the man who gave so much heart and soul and hope every time he spoke . The Death of Harry Kalas has already seemed to sadden most of the people who have heard this terrible news. I found out by logging on facebook a little after 2pm this afternoon to see many statuses reading R.I.P. Harry Kalas, it took up most of my news feed and the news had only been out for an hour at most. The impact this man had on baseball fans all around is astonishing and it breaks my heart because I grew up listening to his every word and I have always dreamed of being a sports analyst one day and Mr. Kalas was by far my idol when it came to it. The past couple of years you could notice a slight downfall in his perception but I would rather listen to him be a little inaccurate than to not listen to him at all. When it came to the Phillies amazingly memorable World Series run this past year you have to ask the question, Do you believe in destiny? Well today you can say that you do because to know that Harry Kalas got to see the Phillies hoist up the World Series trophy before he left us, you can now say it was destiny. Today we have lost a legend and Philadelphia Phillies baseball will never be the same, so whether you are tuning in to the game via radio or television or are at the ballpark listening to his voice, just remember the man that was the voice of Phillies baseball. I speak for myself and Phillies fans everywhere, Thank you and we will miss you.

That 70's Show, Greatest Show Ever? I don't think so, I know so!

If you have never seen That 70's Show, do yourself a favor and tune in to 22 minutes of greatness every time, even when that homo Randy was on the show the last season. Sorry, you can't just replace Eric Forman, but Donna's blonde hair and Jackie's maturing hotness make up for his lackluster humor.(Yeah I just used the word lackluster) If you don't believe me than just turn on the television because this show is all over the place (FOX, CW, FX, The N, ABCFamily) The syndication on that show is insane. Anyway, That 70's Show is like a way of life to me, I always seem to put myself in their shoes, because I feel like I live like them, usually Kelso's shoes, I feel he and I are two very misunderstood people in this very fickle world.(Even though different time periods, its the same situations) He always means well but doesnt think before he does stuff, just like me. There is never a wrong time to watch this show, if you're happy, you will become happier, if you're sad, cheer up because this show will turn that frown upside down. That 70's Show will teach you many lessons in life, love and being a teen in tough times. Whether youre young or old, tall or short, or fat or skinny, live by the way of That 70's Show, its addicting, I watch every chance I get.

So as you faithful few can see this is my first blog, I'll field any topics ya'll want to know what I think about and if you have any comments please post and inform me of what Im doing wrong or right......hmmmm........thinking........thinking.........got nothing left, so peace in the middle east.
