Rockets @ Blazers Incredible Ending Last Night

And who says the NBA regular season is boring?

Here (<-- Clickable) is the link for the HD version, if you want the full effect, if not here is the mediocre quality version:


Basically, the Blazers, Brandon Roy made an incredible game winner with 1.8 seconds, only to make a bone-headed foul on Yao Ming who was able to convert on an And-1 and put the Rockets up by 1 point with 0.8 seconds remaining. Brandon Roy rectifies his mistake by putting up a fade-away DEEP three pointer for the win. Just a magnificent finish to a game.

Four guys Three Mics News

As everybody knows it's Friday and that means another edition of Four Guys Three Mics, but instead of being on from 10PM-11PM, we will now go a second hour up until midnight. So, the same start time that you're used to, but we are now a 2 hour show. I will update this post later tonight with the podcast version of the show, but if you can tune in live we'd appreciate it. As a refresher, here's how to listen:

Go to http://wmuc.umd.edu, look to the left under the first tab "Listen Online", simply click WMUC2 (either HQ or Lo-Fi, either works) and the show will open up in one of your media players (WMP, Itunes, etc.), kick back, maybe even turn on your xbox, put the volume on mute, and enjoy.

The Night of the Election - How I'm Feeling

I am by no means a gifted enough writer to put into words the emotion that has overcome me tonight as Barack Obama won the presidency of the United States, but I will give it my best shot. To be a part of the generation that elected the first black president into office enthuses me more than you could ever know. If you are reading this I’m sure you know my political leanings, I am very liberal and have been pretty vocal about my stances on politics for the past couple of years now, but this is bigger than just domestic/foreign policies. This is the affirmation and a new chapter in racial relations in the United States, even the most pessimistic can never deny the fact of what just happened tonight. This is a surreal moment in time and has not even really sunk in yet that our president elect is Obama. People were celebrating all night, in Chicago, New York, Washington D.C., outside my College Park window, and God bless them, but not me. Tonight, I just sat and watched and reflected and tried to soak it all in. Then Obama came on and put into words everything that I was feeling but could have never orated. I don’t need to remind any of you what a great speaker he is, but make no mistake about it; he captured the essence of what just happened better than anyone ever could. So, if you were part of the raucous celebration and missed it, enjoy…

The 44th President of the United States of America; Barack Obama

11:00 PM EST, NBC News has called it, Barack Obama is our president. This is one of the greatest moments of my life, I'm sitting here in my dorm with goosebumps running up and down my arms and legs. Probably one of the most monumental occurrences in the history of our country, I honestly can't believe what I'm watching. Grant Park in Chicago, Illinois is going crazy right now, I wish I had the words to describe how I'm feeling at this exact moment, but I'm not that gifted of a writer. A simple message of hope and change, that's what this campaign started as and it grew and grew and grew across cities and towns all across the country. This campaign was never about Barack Obama, it's about all of the people who never had a voice in the decision making. I am on cloud nine right now, this is the most proud I have ever been to be an American citizen. Surreal.

I Just Baracked the Vote

Just getting back from the voting booth and I have to say it went off without a hitch. No lines, no wait, no issues, I was in and out. Obama got my vote and I've got to tell you I do have a sense of accomplishing my civic duty, for as much as I protested against the stupid voting policies in this country, I'm glad I got out and made my opinion heard. It's also really good to know that no matter what, my vote was a part of history, because make no mistake about it, this is going to be a historic night. So, I hope you all did, the results should be coming in pretty soon now, so things should heat up quickly. It seems like this election so far has been free of any major disasters, which is good, but there is still a lot of time to go.

The Day of the Election - Getting Ready to Go Vote

Its almost 3:00 now and I'm getting ready to go punch the ticket for Obama. Today has been rather uneventful as expected, in fact most political pundits/veterans will tell you that election day is usually pretty boring until the results start to pour in. There's really nothing to talk about, the candidates have made their pleas and now its up for the public to decide, that's it. I did find it interesting that Sarah Palin wouldn't say who she voted for, consider SHE IS ON THE MCCAIN TICKET, but she has been pretty clueless throughout, so I can't say I was surprised by her dubious answer. Tonight should be fun and I'll check in after I vote and as the results come in, I hope everyone is getting out and voting. Peace.
