Main topics will obviously be sports and music. This is kind of practice for if I ever get a job as a journalist. Plus I do enjoy writing about 2 of my favorite things.

Obscure Band (insert day).
I am a slacker....I apologize for that, but you may as well get used to it. Anywho, Let's get going here. My obscure band of the day is Kids In The Way, a metal band I discovered when Maddie gave me one of their cds that her dad owned. They were pretty much the first band I ever listened to that had any screamo in it, which turned me to the style of music I enjoy the most. They are from Nobles, Indiana, and were originally called Serenity. They changed their name to the current name and went for the much harder sound that they sport now. They disbanded in 2007 but reunited recently and have released a new ep. My favorite cd from them is Apparitions of Melody, their first real cd. The current band consists of Dave Pelsue(lead vocals), Nathan Hughes(rhythm guitar and background vocals), Eric Carter(drums and background vocals), Wille Bostic(bass and background vocals), and Austin Cobb(lead guitar). Go and check them out!
ENJOY!
ENJOY!

Eminem
If you are a friend of mine on facebook, you would know that I am an Eminem fan. He is ridiculously talented and his music is simply amazing.
I find myself with a moral dilemma, though. While he is good, his lyrics are extremely rough. He uses language like it's going out of style and when he doesn't cuss he's talking about sex or drugs or killing someone. I have the edited versions of his songs but even with that you know what he's saying.
So right now I am having a major battle in my head that I need to take time to sort out.
Just my 2 cents.

obscure band for 8/31
While this band may be relatively unknown to most of you, Corpus Christi has been a band I've liked for a while. They are a pretty new Christian metal band from Cincinnati, Ohio that has been through quite a change. The only remaining original member is Jarrod Christman, who does rhythm guitar and clean vocals. Other current members include Derek Ayers (lead guitar), Caleb Rhoads (bass), Andy Poling (drums), and Max O'Connell (harsh vocals).
Their best song, in my opinion, is 'Fight For Your King,' one of their harder songs that combines the awesome scream of original harsh vocalist Will Henry with the different but great voice of Christman.
I haven't had a chance to listen to their entire new cd but I would definitely recommend their first cd, 'Darker Shades Of White.'
ENJOY!

HELP I'M AGREEING WITH SKIP!!!
Thanks to Twitter, I was able to see a comment made by Skip Bayless concerning the Bulls building a bronze statue of Scottie Pippen. I agree that Pippen deserves a statue, but the player I would like to see memorialized with a statue would be Tim Duncan. Yes, he's never been a flashy, exciting player, but he gets the job done. He does everything. Scores, rebounds, defends with the best, blocks shots, and creates opportunities for his team mates to score. He has 4 rings, 3 final's mvps, and 2 league mvps. He has been a steady but superstar but you won't see people walking around wearing his jersey unless you were in San Antonio. He may be boring, but I'll take boring and consistently good over flashy but inconsistent.
