I would like to take this moment to say to my readers, my twitter followers, and my blog followers that I do sincerely keep the people horribly affected by Hurricane Sandy in my mind, in my heart, and in my soul. I do pray for their well-being.

Bad Call
I don't know about the rest of baseball fans around the world, but the blown call by the empire in the 7th inning in the Yankees-Tigers game tonight has got to be one of the worst calls I've ever seen. And, to make matters worst, after the call was made, the player from the Tigers still never even touched 2nd base.

Jeremy Lin and the Basketball Season
The basketball season is underway, just nearly 29 days to go for the start of the regular season. In Houston, all the attention is on Jeremy Lin.
Lin has been much of a project during the waning weeks of the 2011-2012 NBA season. It will be interesting to see how well he develops in the last couple of months. I don't like buying into hypes, but from what I saw, Jeremy Lin does have talent. The talent is definitely there. What he makes of that talent and how he hones it, will be entirely up to him. In other words, he will only excel by how well he composes himself in the court.
The NBA season is a long and gruesome ordeal. The sport itself isn't for the faint of heart. Many obstacles confronts a player throughout the year whether it's simply exhaustion, mental blocks, and most definitely the most dreaded of all: injury. These are the things that happen. The other obstacle that's often overlook is being away from family.
In the midst of it all, the Houston Rockets decision to sign Jeremy still remains a great question of being a good one or a bad one. There's no doubt that Jeremy has talent. But, can he shine? That's the question.
If you ask me, in my own personal opinion, he will have a better chance to be great in a city like Houston where the market isn't as big as New York. That doesn't mean however, that he won't get plenty of attention.
