No, the Cleveland Indians did not win the World Series this year and it was indeed dissapointing. I’m getting over Tribe withdrawl at about this time after spending 8 months with them from spring training through the American League Championship Series. If you are into the Iron Chef television program on Food Network, you might know that Cleveland finally brought home a championship. Iron Chef is a television show where a challenger chef faces an Iron Chef in a hour long battle in which they prepare dishes using a “secret” ingredient. One of the Iron Chefs left the show so they were looking for a replacement. The replacement would be the winner of The Next Iron Chef television show. The winner of the show after several grueling challenges was Cleveland’s own Michael Symon, who owns two restaurants in Cleveland, Lola and Lolita. It’s an exciting victory that will give the Cleveland culinary and downtown scene more notoriety. It might not be Cleveland’s first “big three” professional sports championship in 43 years, but it is good for Cleveland.
Is America facing self-destruction? Is the moral relativism of post-modernism something that can not be overcome? Americans continue to justify wrong. Selfishness and independence are largely now considered to be virtuous. The fall of the American family has destroyed American culture. Many schools can barely function as places of learning because children simply have no respect for others nor authority. Most schools do not need more money to perform better, they are the victim of areas with poor cultures. A breed of people with no respect may ultimately lead to the fall of the American Empire. Every empire does have to fall at some point.
Very weird. You’re talking about sports, then BOOM! the decline of Western culture! Are they related?
I do see what you’re talking about however. I was lucky enough to be raised inside of a family that taught me the value of respect and hard work, but as you know, I went to school with a lot of kids who weren’t brought up the same way. It’s nothing the teachers or school board can cure either. Interestingly, I think it goes back to the original problem Paul outlined in Romans: even though they knew God they didn’t honor him or give thanks.
Kellen Winslow would have come down in bounds if he wasn’t pushed out by that Cardinal- it was an amazing catch and probably a touchdown. Also, Some woman from Cuyahoga Falls won Rachel Ray’s Receipe contest.
They were pretty much unrelated. I was just busting out a couple of subjects in my first blog.
You’re right, the problem is with God and the only hope is Jesus Christ.
The ref didn’t have the guts to make the right call.
I didn’t know about the recipe contest. Go NEO!
