EPISODE 148: SORRY YOUR'RE FROM UTAH

We had a third with us this week in the form of Patrick’s Cousin, Brian!  As you will see from the episode, he added a lot to the conversation and made this one of the best episodes possibly ever!  Don’t worry, he’s only related to Patrick by law, so they’re nothing alike.

I JOKE of course!  The show wouldn’t be the same without Patrick and his personality!  But I am serious about how good this episode is.  We had so much fun that we didn’t realize we hit the two hour mark!

Episode 147 She Swallows Those Pellets

MY OAKLAND RAIDERS HOPES FOR THE 2014 DRAFT

   With the draft coming up in May there are a lot of talks about what the Raiders are going to do with there 60+ million they have to play with. A lot of people, fans, and analyst think the Raiders need to draft a quarterback with there first round 5th pick. Some even think a wide receiver would be a smart pick. I have to disagree with both of those options.

   Anybody who watches the NFL knows since Rich Gannon retired, we have not had a solid QB. Along with our head coaches, we have gone through way to many QBs in just 10 years. So yes we need a QB, is this draft the time to get one, I say no. The Raiders have a lot of money to use, and with that I think they should get a veteran QB in free agency. We need to draft a good offensive line.

BIOSHOCK STUDIO IRRATIONAL GAMES IS SHUTTING DOWN

   After 17 years studio head Ken Levine is shutting down Irrational Games. He is planning on starting a smaller and more entrepreneurial endeavor at Take-Two. He plans on focusing on more narrative-driven games that are released digitally. Sounds like he wants to makes games similar to Telltale Games after there success with The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us.

  "IF WE'RE LUCKY, WE'LL BUILD SOMETHING HALF AS MEMORABLE AS BIOSHOCK."

CRAZY FOUR MONTHS WITH SURGERIES

 The past four months have been crazy to say the least. I have been trying to take care of things around my parents house because they have been out of commission. Plus adding on the holidays and just the things life throws at you. Not saying that I can't handle things, just a lot of things at once.

   Back in November my dad had hip replacement surgery. He was down for a long time and is of course still recovering from that. He is in a lot less pain, and is not walking on his own. Well he was up until last Tuesday when he had a knee replacement surgery. In 4 months my dad has had both his right hip and right knee replaced. He should be coming home today, fingers crossed.

STARTING SCHOOL AGAIN...NEED IT TO WORKOUT THIS TME

   Since graduating from Hayward High I have gone to many different schools. Every time it I finished a school it something has happen and it's seems like it was a waste of time. Well maybe not a waste of time, but the job that should have followed didn't workout for whatever reason. Now that I am starting school again on 2/1/2014, has started giving me mixed feelings, I'll explain why.

OT AT WORK WITH THE HPD

   Things didn't go as planned last night at my job. I work at a shop called ANNEX and we sell supplies and paint mixes to auto body shops in the bay area. We also are renting out the front of our building to a automotive shop. There is a sign up saying no 24hr parking. So unless there is a pass on a car in our lot, it will be towed. Now the automotive shop in the front have tons of cars that should not be there, and the owner of the shop has been warned about getting them out.
