entry #4 Football in the Desert

I am writing this before the Cardinals vs Browns game, the Cardinals are currently 5-0 the best start they have ever had in a season since moving to Arizona. It has been fun so far watching this team this season as they hope to make it to the playoffs for the first time since 2015. Their quarter back Kyler Murray has had a MVP start to the season with over 1500 passing yards and 10 touchdowns. Their defense this year has also been really good this year ranked fourth in the league. Many people believe this can be attributed to many different things from their offseason plays they made acquiring defensive end JJ Watt, wide receiver AJ green, and just recently trading for tight end Zach Ertz. Another factor is the experience Kyler Murray has been able to gain through three years of playing in the NFL.

 

This week’s weeks game will be interesting however since both the head coach and a couple of the assistant coaches tested positive for Covid-19 making them ineligible to be at the game, and one of our top defensive player Chandler Jones also tested positive so he will also be ineligible. It will be an interesting game to see how the Cardinals can overcome the challenges they are raked with this week in a tough away game. 

 

All in all, it has been fun to watch a team from Arizona compete and win games. Hopefully this good playing can continue throughout the season and into the playoffs.

    This topic aged well considering they are 7-0 today beating the texans. I hope they continue to do well because I'm a big fan of Kyler Murray and I remember watching his high school highlights when I was little.

Entry #5 Mayhem

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO-_cmXiBL4    I decided to pick this Allstate Mayhem commercial starring Dean Winters, as I personally can relate to this as my dad always tailgates other people when he drives. This commercial ad was obviously created so viewers would want to use Allstate Insurance, but they also want their viewers to come to   so they don’t have to worry about situations like the one in the ad. This ad may seem to be a super far stretched and made for a short little bit of humor during a commercial break but if you think about it how often do you have someone riding your rear end and you are just hoping and praying that they don’t hit you, I know I have had that more than once before. The ad's target audience is mainly adults as they are the ones who would be needing their insurance packages. The ad also uses a play on words with tailgating meaning riding on someone else’s rear end when driving, and also the party that takes place before a football game....

Entry #7 Fresh

There are many controversial topics going on right now. Some are more important than others but one that isn’t getting the national attention that it should is the industrialized food industry here in America. The documentary “Fresh” tries to show their viewers exactly what is happening in this industry right now and how little the public people really know about it. The tone throughout is mostly serious and sometimes hopeful when talking about potential solutions to this major issue. They interview with several local small farmers and talk about what they do differently at their farms compared to these massive factory farms when it comes to caring for animals, rotating crops, and not using pesticides on the produce. Some of the farmers talk about how much harder it is nowadays to compete with these massive operations and how some of them are just struggling to make it by while their competition is blowing right by them, even with a lower quality product. They also state facts about ...

Entry #3 the M!nt

  I had just finished eating Taco Bell with my friends, and the combination of the bean burrito, the Mtn Dew Baja Blast and the tacos I had, were not feeling so hot in both my stomach and my mouth as we continued on into our night. I needed some kind of pick me up to feel a little better. When I took the small little red tin out of my pocket, I could hear the other ones shaking and sliding around inside. I popped open the lid to see the snow like powder going everywhere, I moved away the wax paper to reveal what looks like to be a hundred of these small little white pills in the tin. I picked the lucky winner and popped it into my mouth I immediately felt like I was on a snow-covered mountain getting blasted by this cold chilling wind that felt like it would never stop, my taste buds continue to fight and break down this brutal winter freeze that I put into my mouth. The whole experience lasted maybe five minutes, but this is where it quickly became my least favorite part was when ...
