MICHAEL JORDAN ERA VS LEBRON JAMES ERA
This article belongs to Celebrity craze theme.
Watching the Cavaliers play the Hawks was a stone bore for me not because there wasn't no talent or skills on the players part but because there was no self-challenge of the players. I've seen more self-challenging players watching video games than what I saw last night. Who am I to make such a statement? I am a mother who watched her sons play sports for over ten years. And when those boys played any sport, the zeal of the game was found through raw determination to bring forth your best abilities. That was real entertainment.
LeBron James, selected King of the sport right now was decided by his gifts and talents but it was also selected by moneymakers to create a god to control the momentum of the basketball propriety. They make money when their god delivers. This means they have to create a following that will keep people focused on LeBron James. The sacrifice is on the court. And that sacrifice is a real and raw game of individuals who only go so far to release their capabilities.
Is this what happens when athletes deny their souls to be the best they can be? They play for money and nothing else? It is obvious, there is no natural spontaneous performance—no real TV. I was so glad when Charles Barkley, one of the sports commentators admitted, it was a boring game. If you are not going to challenge yourself what is the use of putting on a uniform?
When Michael Jordan played basketball, his opponents and teammates all were Kings of the court and challenged one another letting the world know, yes Jordan is awesome and so am I. If he wants to stay that way, we will challenge him to make sure! That was exhilarating entertainment. When there is no heart, there is no magic just a paycheck and that is what viewers get.
What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?

TONY BLAIR FOR EU PRESIDENT? THE THOUGHT OF IT ALONE WOULD MAKE ME WANT TO THROW UP
Remember a man named Tony Blair? Yep, that's him. He was the one who ventured into an illegal war in Iraq together with his other two grubby little mates George W Bush and Johnny Howard. And then, after his resignation as British PM, he became a Middle East 'peace representative' on behalf of the United Nations, achieving absolutely nothing in the process.

GOD, RELIGION AND FRAUD - IT ALL LOOKS THE SAME TO ME
While I would be the first person to defend anyone's right to practice their chosen religion unhindered and where and when they please, and while I also acknowledge that some people with a religious background have and still are doing good deeds on behalf of their communities, I reserve my right to highlight and point out to the general community that in all cases religions are based on half-truths, fiction and indeed fraudulent conduct.

THE CIA - A TERRORIST ORGANISATION? NOT YES WE CAN, BUT YES IT IS.
I can remember saying, on this very site in fact, and on 7th March 2007, that the CIA (Central Intelligence Organisation) was acting like a terrorist organisation and by the looks of things, I was damned right.

GOVERNMENTS ABUSING PRINCIPLES OF ANTI-TERRORISM LAWS
When the attacks on the Twin Towers in New York occurred, the immediate aftermath, in terms of revised and additional anti-terrorism legislation just had to be put in place. Many countries, if not most, all revised their legislation to suit their own specific needs regardless of the fact that some of those could well be regarded as dubious in terms of their justification.

IRAN - STUFFED BY RELIGIOUS FANATICISM
What is it with so-called religious leaders that even entices them into running countries and stuffing them in the process? Their motivation has certainly has nothing to do with religion but rather more to do with their hunger for power, in my view.
