UEFA Champions League Final Madrid 2010

To make things simple, I don't give flying flip who wins tomorrow in the UEFA Champions League Final 2010.  We made Bayern Munich look silly and were sufferers of a little bit of bad luck when Wayne Rooney injured ligaments in his ankle and never fully recovered.  Inter Milan is definitely the better side and should win plus they knocked out The Rent Boys (Chelsea) which deserves praise whenever that feat is accomplished.  Want it to be all over so the footballing world's focus will turn to more important things, the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ then more importantly the Manchester United North American Tour 2010 in preparation for the beginning of the 2010/11 EPL Campaign.

Man United Football Withdrawal

It hasn't been two weeks since Manchester United's 2009-10 campaign ended and I'm dying for some more football.  The way the last few weeks of the season ended left me unfulfilled. All the critics and pundits predicted that the club would suffer for selling Christiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid and not resigning Carlos Tevez.

Well Wayne Rooney almost single-handedly quieted all the skeptics as he scored 34 goals in all competitions before he was unlucky and injured his ankle during the most important two-week period of the campaign. The season was somewhat successful as we did finish only one point behind eventual league and FA Cup winners Chelsea. While we did defend the Carling Cup the real silverware however eluded us i.e. Barclay's Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and The FA Cup Trophies.

And Now It's Time to Say Goodbye ...

Another TV season is winding down with all the shows airing their finales these past two weeks.  When May comes around I'm already looking forward to the fall for the continuation of each series especially if there is a cliffhanger. Unfortunately each good thing has to have an end and such is the case this year, as I have to say goodbye, unwillingly, to some of my favorite long-running series.

Been introduced to some new shows such as NCIS: LA, The Middle, Modern Family (will have to post about these them later), and Miami Medical which have been pleasantly enjoyable.  Each have stepped it up a notch especially 24, CSI: NY, Survivor: Heroes vs Villains, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Smallville, and Cold Case.  Even American Idol, which started out slowly and at times was underwhelming has excelled as the Finale edges closer.

Can Blogging Be Time Consuming?

As I return to the blogosphere need to ask myself am I adding too many things and making it a complicated process that it is time consuming?  Guess that question will be answered in the next couple days as the attempt to bring this blog more life so I can draw others to it.

New and Improved

From now on these posts will vary in content considerably as I'll comment on any and everything that's on my mind whether it be family, personal experiences, church related, sports, politics, work, books or movies and TV.  Get ready for a new and improved blog experience from The Jace.

Multi-year Recap, Part I ...

Well, it's been nearly three years since my last post.  Pretty pathetic if you ask me ... but you can't dwell on the past you have to move and look forward, so here I am.  A lot has occurred so I'll do my best to summarize in as little space as possible.

The most important event if you've read my recent (2007) posts is that were successful in getting pregnant and now have two healthy children.  Lissa and Joshua were born February 28, 2008.  They are healthy and happy two-year old twins that we love and adore.  If you follow my wife's blog: The Smith Symphony you'll get an in depth view of our life with them.
