As 2010 comes to a close....

....it's important to note some things that we've learned from the year.  We've learned that sometimes your team does win it all -- See New Orleans Saints........Or makes a run to the World Series that captures your imagination----See the Texas Rangers.......That some are never too old to make foolish decisions – See Brett Favre allegedly sextin pics of his winky-dink......That if you can ball, redemption is yours -- See Mike Vick......That our nation values pets more than people – See Vick’s reception compared to Donte Stallworth's......That if you are a free agent NBA player, don’t do a show about signing with a new team – See King James.....That sometimes, a player just needs a team that believes in him – See Peyton Hillis.........That no matter how much we want to see Manny Pacquiao fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. it just won't happen. Floyd! It will be a 50 million dollar payout. Make it happen!.......That sometimes, you got to take a chance in life – See Wasabi Sushi & Martini Bar.......That sometimes the shoe just doesn’t fit Cinderella – See Butler’s last second miss versus Duke......That you can be the most stereotypical and polarizing characters and attain fame and wealth beyond everyone's imagination -- See Jersey Shore........That sometimes there’s tragedy among the inspirational stories at the Olympics – See Georgian Luger.......That greed is still good in America - - See Wall St bonuses return......That I shouldn’t bitch about how detailed and thorough the accountant gets during tax time – See Wesley Snipes, Kelly Rowland and Val Kilmer..........That Hollywood never misses a chance to follow up a great movie with an in-ept sequel, regardless of how much time has passed – See Wall St Money Never Sleeps......That with the Internet, everyone is just a moment away from being famous --- See Antoine Dobson.....That my favorite movie I've seen this year was Zombieland....My song of the year is I Love the Way you Lie (Not the Em version but the Ri-Ri version from Loud with Em on the hook). Those songs and that video is the closest I'll ever come to understanding that madness that goes on in those volatile relationships......All in all, 2010 has been a good year. I approach 2011, healthy, happy with great opportunities beckoning upon my door.  I look forward to seeing what the year has in store for me. Happy New Year everyone!
