A TV Series, About Zombies?!

October 31st, 2010 6 comments

I’ve been a fan of the zombie genre for awhile. It started when I was a kid and I saw the 1990s movie Night of the Living Dead and I’ve been a zombie fanatic ever since.

The trailer looks good so far. No cheesiness of a those “B” movie zombie flicks, and since it’s a series we’ll be able to get actual character development, and see the human nature in this catastrophic event. It’s based off the comic series of the same name The Walking Dead.

The only thing I don’t like is that AMC has too many damn commercials. Seriously, I’ve could’ve sworn they stretched out a 2 hour movie to 2 hours and 45 minutes. They show good movies too it’s just that the commercials are a killer. So I’m either going to record all the episodes on my DVR and skip the ADs or I’ll just wait until the DVD season is out and I’ll get them from Netflix.

Go ahead and catch this series, I freakin’ approve of it!

Why Did We Lose?

Jonathan Sanchez

And

Pat Burrell

Jonathan Sanchez is a hit or miss and tonight was a miss. Sanchez gave Texas a homerun with 2 on base, and a solo homerun. Pat Burrell is supposed to be a power hitter but hasn’t showed it at all in the post-season, actually he’s been striking out, a lot! I think he could’ve been a key player in getting us tied in the game, how? He at least could’ve gotten a base hit and then Cody to hit the homerun, and then when starting the 9th being the power hitter he supposedly is HIT A HOMERUN!.. Too much to ask? Probably but Burrell needs a rest, and if it does come down to game 7 we need to find someone else other than Jonathan Sanchez.

I think there will be 2 1/2 likely scenarios to play out:

*Pat Burrell is out, and Aaron Rowand is in (all scenarios)

1. Bumgarner is better than Sanchez. So I think Bumgarner will win and game 5 the pitching rotation resets so Lincecum plays and win. Giants win the World Series in 5.

2. Bumgarner is young, and will cost us. Lincecum will win, the game goes back to San Francisco and Cain will end it. The Giants win the World Series in 6.

3. Bumgarner loses, Lincecum loses, Cain will win, and we’ll see how the Giants will torture us in Game 7. I don’t know if we’ll win or lose.

Cliff Who? Josh Who?

As soon as The Rangers put up two runs, I was like great another Giants torture game but that’s not what happened. We just kept hitting the ball over and over and over! It was awesome. The hype around Lee, Hamilton, and Vladdy was just that, all hype. Although the most hype was surrounding the pitching showdown it was nowhere to be found BUT overall Lincecum came out on top and Lee ended up with his first post-season defeat.

I guess we’re supposed to believe that the Rangers weren’t on top of their game because they took a “long” rest. Whatever.

Well here is what the ESPN people have to say after Game 1:

New prediction. I’m still feeling that The Rangers are still shook up.  So, it will affect this game (game 2), and if we win this game BIG it will shatter their hope and foundation, then after that expect Giants to sweep.

Here is what the ESPN experts have to say about the World Series. I already knew we were going to be the underdogs BUT I’m surprised to see the picks choosing Texas in 6 or 7. I thought I was going to see outrageous predictions of Texas sweeping us, or Texas in 5. I guess ESPN sees some fight in the Giants but just not enough to come out with the big win.

ESPN Expert Predictions

I think we’ve made a believer out of Jim Caple because this is what he chose earlier:

Alright so we saw what the ESPN experts had to say now here is what the ESPN users are saying:

As of 10/26/2010, New York still hella mad at Texas? It seems so. If we win this maybe I’ll show NY some luv back by taking a vacation over there, haha.

My prediction (in case you missed it in my last post) it’s going to be Giants in 6. Let’s go Giants! Let’s go! *CLAP! *CLAP!

Delicious.

Whomp, Whomp, Whomp.

I know I’m kinda late BUT congratulations to the San Francisco Giants in winning the pennant. Torture has never felt so good! Hahaha… Anyways my prediction is Giants in 6, and as always we’re going in as the underdogs in this one. I don’t know why it’s hard for people to believe ;)

I was watching the MLB Network and Harold Reynolds says that this is going to be remembered as one of the biggest upsets in the MLB. I don’t believe in that all at because in my eyes the Giants was already the better team and the Phillies were the underdogs ;) .. Okay, honestly I didn’t think it was that BAD, but after seeing how all of the media was rooting for the Phillies, maybe it was? Okay I got a new prediction, this loss will haunt the Phillies so bad that it’s going to put them in a slump for the next 2+ years, and then somebody else is going to point this out, call it a curse, and originate it back to when they lost to the Giants. Feel me?

Last thing, after the Giants had won I visited different news websites to read what they had to say about the game and eventually came across Philly.com and saw a bunch of Giants fans trolling the comments, it was hilarious.

PS.

ESPN Giants VS Phillies Prediction.
