Welcome Back to the Space Jam. Space Jam Legacy review

Looks like hes getting ready to trade this squad for Russel Westbrook.

So after a month of being away and doing some traveling. After getting back home me and my daughter decides to watch the new Space Jam movie. She loves basketball and loves Lebron so what the heck. Its a funny way to introduce her to “Looney Tunes” characters. I remember watching the first one as a kid with my cousons. I honestly didnt care to watch because growing up i couldnt stand Michael Jordan or the bulls. I grew up being a Golden State Warriors fans since i grew up in the bay area. Overall the orginal was fun and i ended up enjoying it. Fast foward 25 years and here i am again watching thr new one. Now im not a Lebron fan, i respect his game and everything he does for the kids and etc but once again, I am a warriors fan so i got some biterness towards him.

Overall I had fun watching it, sure it was hella cheesey and corney but what do you expect from this type of premise but the cgi was really cool to look at and seeing all the WB properties come to life. Lebron acting was very, very stale but i dont think this guy ever came and compared himself to a Leonardo Dicaprio.

The plot is out of this world, literally. Lebron James son “Dom James” played by the up and coming actor Cedric Joe who creates a basketball video game. His father wants him to focus on his game of basketball before he leaves for basketball camp but Dom has no interest. While all of this happening, a new villian Al-G Rhythm (get it?) Played by the great and my favorite actor Don Cheadle. AL-G Rhythm plots in the virtual world to gain more power and what better way to do that then use the most popular athlete in the world Lebron James. During a pitch meeting, Lebron and Dom have a falling out and Dom gets sucked in the virtual world and Lebron must save his son. Lebron jumps in the virtual world. Now to save his son, Lebron must defeat Al-G Rhythm in a basketball game created by Dom himself. Lebron needa help and he gets it from the new tune squad.

Now I know alot of people my age have been tearing down this movie. Ripping it apart but honestly it was just fun with very bad acting like the orginal. I am also not a hardcore fan of space Jam and I also dont mind these movies or cartoons being remade for kids. I will never tell my daughter she can not watch a cartoon or movie due to my anger or my nostalgia of something. Also like I said earlier my daughter loves Lebron so I am going to resepect her love for the man. And she is also playing basketball and getting pretty good at it. Overall I gve the movie a B-. I had fun watching it, rolled my eyes a couple of times but not in a serious way. The acting is bad and the plot is what it is. My daughter had fun watching it and I had fun watching it with her.

I know this will not be a very popular review since I have seen so much hate for Lebron on differen’t websites and blogs and grown men and women losing their stuff since this movie was announced. But overall itsa cute kids movie and I do not watch many of these type of movies. So if your kid is having fun and enjoys this type of stuff, do not kill their love for it, maybe give it a chance and maybe watch it with them and try to have fun with them.

My experience after taking the Pfizer vaccine.

So last weekend the misses and I were scheduled to get our 2nd dosage and it was quick and easy but of course we had to wait 30 minutes but after that everything was all good. It was a nice sunny day, around 90 degrees and my mother was nice enough to babysit our 2 year old. We decided it would be a nice evening to enjoy some margarita’s.

Of course before all of that a couple of buddies of mine at the gym warned me that I would suffer some symptoms. But my hard headed self was like “naw im good”. But they looked at me sideways and decided to make bets on my illness. Sure enough the next morning after installing my ac units in my house and get everything finished so I can have a nice relaxing evening and enjoy some NHL playoffs in peace. To my not suprised I was feeling quite well, so well I cocky and decided to take the misses out for some brunch before picking the kiddo up.

Here comes the pain. During our brunch before we got our food, suddenly my wife started getting the chills, she was complaining about being very achy and she told me “its from the shot”. My hard head didnt want to believe her because I was feeling good still. After our breakfast we pick up our daughter and go back home and she is out of it. She had a high fever, she was cold then hot, then cold then hot all day. I had my daughter with me for a while and I let her watch her dinosaurs then all of the sudden I start to feel it. First thing I thought was “the guys at the gym are going to laugh about this”. My body was aching like crazy. I came down with a fever and couldnt eat anything and this thing lingered on me for two days straight while my wife only had it for a day. Missed the playoff games because I slept through the games. I was just happy my wife recovered. With the lack of energy I wasnt really able to help much.

Now I know some of yall arent believers in the vaccanation or covid and thats fine believe what you want i am not here to convince you. But i would warn people to be aware that your body will go though these symptons and if you dont, congratulations you are an X-men. But on the serious note please prepare yourself better than we did. If you have young kids, plan on having a sitter or somebody to watch over them while you are out of it. Treat this like you would treat the flu. Get plenty of rest, drink your fluids and prepare to bing watch one of your favorite shows or movies.

Overall i am happy to get it over with and do my part so we can get everything back to normal. Now back in the gym not having to wear a mask and go to stores without wearing a mask but of course I can feel the eyes and judgment on me now but life goes on. I hope my experience helps you in going through this process. I am not going to pass judgment on you if you dont get vaccinated thats your choice. I hope everybody stays safe and enjoys their days. Be well my friends.

Clout chasing Issue

What are you willing to sacrifice for the price of fame. Your dignity, your freedom, friends, family or just the respect for your name? It will come at a cost that is for sure and the rewards may you get you a couple of thousand followers but is it really worth it? I can remember a time when the popular didnt have sacrifice much in order to gain that status now its a whole new ball game out there. From people licking ice cream in stores, to socalites making fun if cancer patients and then getting their moment on the Dr Phil show. We even have close to 30 year olds trying to pretend to be high school student for their instgram status to grow. We even have people out there recording fake bomb threats and climbing on bridges and recording it. Will this trend stop probably not. Im not going to blame social media because you still have good people on there using it for good causes but this trend right here, “The clout chasing disease” will continue to spread.

Its scary to me because you never know when it will happen and or a loved ine can be caught in the cross hairs of this foolishness. I even seen a mad man in store pouring milk on himself and screaming like a maniac all for the clout. But their is only so far they can go with this because at the end there is no fame and fourtune, there is no hollywood knocking ageng knocking on the door or a phone call, the only thing waiting is embarrasment but not for them but for friends, family and ask yourself clout chaser, is it really worth it. Now i am not going to name these people or show of their videos because the virus has spread enough. And i do apoligize for using that word for this issue. I wish i could tell you just ignore it when you see it or if you do see it in public but i feel its imprortant for parents to warn their kids on this type of behaviour and show them there is no star in hollywood at the end.

Now is there any positive clout chasing, maybe. I have seen some social media sites use their clout to give money to the homless but that is all that i have really seen, for all that i know it could be fake, which i hope it isnt. I am not going to blame this on thr younger generation since i have seen people around my age group do alot clout chasing themselves and i know alot of teens in my family that do not use social media. So at the end i beileve the cause of this is of course people being toxic and they strive of it. I challenge the clout fame cloust chasers to use their abilities for good. Maybe show the ones that are influenced by there fame that this not the route to go. But that is just me keeping hope. Maybe i am the wrong person to talk on this topic but something needs to get off my chest and this one of them out of the million issues have with many things going on in this world. Hope everybody enjoys there day and hopefully it is peaceful for you. Enjoy your day my friends.

Maskless Karen….

Just the other while i was standing in line i witnessed the wrath of a maskless Karen. Now i am not here to lecture people on wearing masks. “Do you” is usually my attitude towards peoples beliefs. Anyway while at the store with my 2 year old we finally got my 2 year old to wear her little dinosaur mask only because she thinks she is a dinosaur with it on. While getting groceries we noticed a woman in a heated debate with another woman about masks. The woman of the topic decided to leceture everybody about how stupid we were for not wearing a mask. She also wanted everybody to know how she suffered from anxiety and other symptons.

Then she pointed her attention to me with my daugher and i was like “lord here we go”. She decided to tell me how i was abusing my daughter and wanted to tell me about her symptons. At first i wanted to ignore her until she wanted to come near my daughter trying to take of my mask. To me thats crossing the line and i stepped in the way. I wish had my phone on me to record this situation but i have a bad habit of not carrying my phone. So then we get into it and i tell her. “Look heres the thing about me i am over 300 lbs whos a suffers from asthma and has anxiety. I have suffered from these symptons since i was a kid but i also workout everyday, jog and weightlift with a mask on”. She looked dumbfounded and shocked and then moved on.

So this is my warning to you maskless karens who want to push their beliefs on me, the best suggestion is just plain “dont do it. Because i am not on your side when it comes to this. I train everyday and sometimes have my panic attacks but i stop, focus on my breathing and take a couple of minutes to gain my composure. And then take a hit off my inhaler and take another moment then go back to my workout because i am staying commited to losing this weight, not letting covid defeat me again and not letting these symptons defeat. So please, maskless karens do not ever preach to me about your issues because we are not teamates and leave people alone and never cross the line of ever approaching another persons child because not everybody has the patience i have.
