I have seen the Simpsons Movie ...

and it is good.

Simpsons Movie Today!!!

I have my tickets! I will be watching the new Simpson's movie tonight!

WOO HOO!

In other news Rumors are flying that Directv will be picking up The MTN (mountain West conference sports network) and adding it to their sports tier in mid August. I called Directv customer service to try and verify for myself. The rep I spoke with was named Steven. When I asked him if Directv had plans to add the MTN he said that they would be adding it this year before the football season starts, but he couldn't give an exact date.

While I am very hopeful to be receiving the MTN on Directv, I am still in a wait and see mode. I know he told me they would get it, but until I see an official release I am not holding my breath.

Me as a Simpson ...

Using the new Simpsonizeme.com website I created myself as a simpsons character. So ... This is me ... not 100%, but thats ok.

Cubs continue to roll

The cubs have now won 4 in a row, and are keeping the pressure on the Brewers. The cubs also picked up Jason Kendall from the A's. Kendall is slumping this year, but is a lifetime .298 hitter, and should fit in well with the cubs. It give some good experience behind home plate.

Baseball All-Star Break

Today is the last games before the All Star break. The cubs have finally started playing well. They are 4.5 games back in the division, and 3 games back in the wild card. Hopefully they win today and keep some momentum to start the 10 game home stand.

What this also means is that tomorrow and Wednesday are sports "Dead Days" The only days when no major sports are played. No baseball, no football, no basketball, and no hockey ... Tuesday we at least have the all star game.

Welcome to July

July has finally come. The cubs are playing very well. They took 2 of 3 from the brew crew, and have won 8 of the last 9. Hopefully they will keep winning into the all star break.

I got to try out my new driver on Saturday morning. I like it very much. I am able to get more distance with the driver, and it feels better in my hands. I still need to work on my twisting my wrists and opening my club face and slicing the ball.

My brother and his family arrived yesterday. I hadn't seen some of them in quite a long time.
