2015 the year of Optimism
Looks like everyone's quite optimistic about my teams for this year.
Auburn
Experts are estimating Auburn to be ranked anywhere between #14 and #2 next year in the polls. I love my Tigers but I don't know if I'd go as high as ranking us #2?!
Sure we have Muschamp but will he be able to turn around the defense in one year? I believe they'll be improvements but a complete solid D after losing 8 starters?! I don't think so.
We lost 4 more on Offense (with one being the QB, best running back, star receiver and Offensive Lineman) plugging up all those holes by the next season doesn't seem feasible.
#14 I like. If we prove ourselves, we move up. Plus I like being the underdog. It gives us the advantage because no one thinks you're that good. (Like Ohio State for example)
Mets
Everyone's saying this is the year the Mets make the playoffs. But it's not the fans saying that. It's our Manager, our GM and the entire Mets roster that truly believe it's playoff time in 2015.
This would shock me. Do I think the Met's can get 2nd place in the East? Of course I can. I think they're better than any team in the division except for the Nationals. (who'll win the pennat) I see the 2 Wild card teams coming from the Central and West divisions who have more balanced talent than in the east.
Sure we have Matt Harvey coming back and that's a big deal. But how many games does it win us when we can't score runs?! Instead of squeaking out a tie for 2nd like we did last year, I predict we'll get a solid 2nd placing but still fall short of Wild Card status.
With nobody stepping up with a bat the Mets will continue to disappoint fans in some way for 2015.
But I'm still excited to watch them see "how"

Old cartoons
I've been thinking of more cartoons I used to watch. Warning: These are the most random I've ever had!
Biskitts
Lil' Dogs meet Robin Hood in this odd cartoon I have very few memories about but had my jaw drop when coming across this last month through a random internet search. Does anyone else remember them?
Denver the Last Dinosaur
Never watched it but could sing you the theme song right now if I had to. Isn't that weird?
Rubik the Amazing Cube
Why not make a popular toy from the 80's into a cartoon series!? I watched this only a few times as a kid but like Biskitts, remember it as if it came on yesterday.
Captain Caveman and Son
One of my favorite shows as a kid. Loved it. How Captain Caveman became a father is never explained. I like to pretend she died at the hands of an arch nemesis, unfortunately the true meaning was never given to us in the cartoon.
So am I the only one who remembers these cartoons or what?

Best and Worst Baseball franchises
The worst owners in Baseball. But due to their tight connections with the Commissioner of Baseball Bud Selig I doubt they'll lose their team anytime soon. Even with the new Commissioner coming in, it's doubtful any action will be taken against these scumbags who cheated and lied to the City of Miami, convincing them to pay for a stadium NOBODY goes to.
Add that on top of skirting the rules for owners, barely meeting fair competition standards and screwing the fans every chance they get. Overpaying for playing and dumping them the next year. 2nd only to the Wilpons (owner of the Mets) they're the worst owners in Baseball.
What great ownership! What they make up in being a small budget team, is the way they deliver for their fans on so many other levels.
One example was a few years ago when Ryan Baum was found guilty of steroid use and banned from baseball for the rest of the season. This freed up 1.2 million dollars the Brewers DID NOT have to pay him.
What did the owner decide to do with it? Well, every owner in baseball would have pocketed the money but not Mark Attanasio. The Brewers owner gave it all back to the fans in the form of free concessions for the rest of the season! One night would be free hot dog day and the next night, free drink. If I were anywhere near Milwaukee I'd be tempted to switch MLB teams.
I love everything this team does for there fans. This year they adopted a dog and gave it a home, naming it the "honorary" mascot and just last month announced an amazing deal...the Golden Ticket.
1000 tickets for $1,000 to 1000 lucky fans who snatch it up in time guarantees them tickets to any game for the rest of their lives. Want to go to the Brewers World Series Game 7? They'll have tickets set aside for you to buy.
A-maz-zing.
As for the Mets.... DOWN WITH THE WILPONS!!!

And the streak continues
This is the last "hurdle" until the movie comes out. My box at the comic book store lies empty but my heart is full of hope that the Expanded Universe will continue on under the Legends banner!

Febuary Movie Review
I forgot to do a January review this month and since it's too late now, I thought I'd go ahead and do one for February.
No.
No. No.
Why?!
This isn't a good month for movies but when is it ever?!

Steak N Shake
Never happened to me before. Usually they give me something that's the exact opposite of that. Wherever I go this tends to be the case. But on this fateful night in Orlando, it happened.
A miracle to be sure!
So how was Universal Studios at Xmas and is it worth going?
Yeah. Especially if you like Suess. If not, then it's ok. The Grinch saved it for me but outside of that, there's a lame parade and not much else around the season. So I guess it boils down to that.
Ok, that does it for our trip last month! More fun to come tomorrow!
