In light of all the fascinating things that are happening in Politics this year, I am interested in creating a U.S. Politics union. Here we would spread TRUE information about the Election, Congress, new bills, etc. It is my intention to have a place where everyone can get together to spread news and express their opinions. I want people of all parties to join Democrat, Republican, I don't care. I want a place where open discussion between people of all parties is possible. Please comment and let me know if you are interested.

This past year has had a few victims and as the season winds to close I'd like to take a moment and remember them.

Pat Riley: This former coach of the Heat had a graceful exit by simply resigning and handing it over to the assistant coach. Now when I say graceful I am completely ignoring the fact that the Heat had their worst season in franchise history. That Miami fans were demanding his resignation and the gnawing possibility that he will return when the team is better. Aside from that it was a graceful departure.

Avery Johnson: This former coach of the Maverick was fired after they were eliminated from the playoffs. Fans were angry, He was angry and Jason Kidd smiled as he got to outlast the coach that didn't want him. Now we have a top-notch coach available, who is a little inflexible with his roster and just got rejected from the Bulls (For a guy who isn't a coach).

Flip Saunders: Well the Pistons seemed to have a winning formula except for one small thing, it wasn't winning. Ergo, the management decided to lose the coach and mess with the roster. I am against this because the Pistons seemed to have great chemistry with each other just not the coach. So get rid of Flip Saunders I don't care but please leave that roster alone!

Isiah Thomas: You knew it was coming. This former Knicks coach is probably going to wind up with the Pistons (It's a rumor, I didn't start it but I am spreading it). I am reminded of this time last year when Knicks fans praised him for his savvy during the draft. Their cheers and adulation were equally matched with their rejoicing after he got fired. Well Zeke hang in there, maybe Spike Lee will return your calls someday.

Mike D'antoni: Well he may have been fired after a first-round elimination with the Suns, but now he has Isiah Thomas's old job. I'm not sure if that is much of a happy ending.

Scott Skiles: Well Bulls fired him and the Bucks hired him. From Ben Gordon to Michael Redd, he'll adjust.

This spot is reserved for the old Bulls coach who is being replaced by Del Negro but after only one season he isn't important enough.

Broken feet, built-up hype, cheating leaders, wiretap scandals and the possibility of the most awesome upset in football history, No this isn't a Lifetime movie script. This is your 42nd Super Bowl. I am certain I am not the only one looking forward to seeing the noble Giants of New York defeat the Patriots. I am sick and tired of Boston this year. I kept my mouth shut when the Red Sox won the World Series. I didn't utter a single word of complaint when Kevin Garnett got traded to the Celtics. But if the Patriots win the Super Bowl with a 19-0 record I will be too fed up with Boston. However I am not worried this because I am sure that Eli Manning will wipe the field with Bum-footed Brady. If the Patriots do the win the Super Bowl my only hope will lie in the Bulls eliminating the Celtics in the NBA Eastern Finals (Or the Pistons, whoever does it first.)

I sincerely hope Greg Oden plays well under pressure because that is what he will be doing every game next year. Portland will draft Oden expecting an immediate championship. Now Portland fans are desperate for a championship considering they haven't won one since 1977 when they had Bill Walton. Has anyone considered what would happen if Greg Oden didn't lead the Trailblazers to a championship next year? This guy has a lot of weight on his shoulders and I hope he handles it well, because I don't think Portland will be getting those rings anytime soon.

Last Saturday I rented TMNT and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (Both for PS2) and I am thrilled that I only rented them. Both games are short seeing as how it is Wednesday and I have already beaten them both (oh, and I only spend a maximum of 3 hours a day on the console) both were dull and every level was the same. Right now I am looking forward to the return date for these extremely disappointing games.

If you are a sports fan you are aware that the top 2 picks in the draft are Greg Oden and Kevin Durant. Now sportswriters everywhere are trying to build up the hype of who Portland will choose. I believe we already know who they will pick. For those of you who are still in the dark it's Greg Oden. So is the hype necassary? I'm not holding my breath! No one is holding their breath! We already know Oden to Portland and Durant to Sonics. Let's focus on the real surprise coming up (Lakers trading Kobe to the Bulls)

If the NBA games were decided by potential the Charlotte Bobcats would have been this years champions. Because that is what they are, the team with the most potential. Undoubtedly they are the youngest team in the NBA but what is their coach doing to help them grow. From my perspective, nothing. As a North Carolinian I can say that nobody here even goes to the Bobcats games to see the Bobcats, They go to see who they are playing against. What will the coach do next year to cultivate his team full of potential? Hopefully something that doesn't tick off Michael Jordan.

Unless you have been living in a cave you are aware that America has declared a war on terrorism. Am I the only one who has noticed we are fighting an intangible thing and not a country. This is just as effective as calling a war on jealousy, playa-haters beware

I will now announce some hard-hitting facts

1.Michael Jordan is the greatest person who was ever in the NBA

2.Lebron James is not better than MJ and he never will be.

3.Kobe had the potential to be but it didn't happen now it never will.

4.If you are looking for the next Michael Jordan your time could be spent for better uses, for example, you could be emptying the Atlantic Ocean with a teaspoon
