The Story of 100 Aisles … Kobe Bryant
I awoke Monday morning with my typical Monday attitude : grumpy. The first thing I do in the morning, before even realizing which day it is, is read the news. The posting on the ESPN website really woke me up. Kobe won an Oscar?! Suddenly, I was awake!! Like the smell of bacon cooking in the…

Habitual line stepping
As I watched The Thunders versus the Golden State Warriors this past Saturday night, Carmelo Anthony threw down his headband violently in anger after getting hit by Draymond Green, who acted like nothing happened, like usual. At that moment, I was thinking that at some point, someone will have to set Draymond Green straight with…

Blue Monday with The Patriots
The Patriots are going (again) to the Super Bowl. I’m not a happy camper. And to make things worst, Philadelphia Eagles are joining the party. For all the Steelers fans, Dallas Cowboys nation and others teams, it’s a nightmare. But I must admit the Pats have this capacity of being a discipline team and they…

It’s the words of the Educated Fool, aka my big brother, that you will read through my writing. We do make a fabulous team! Last Saturday was an awakening. He decided to watch the under 17 years…

Big Ben… Why?
The game last Sunday was a complete disaster! It’s hard to swallow the way they lost this game. It seems like ‘déjà vu’. I will focus on the fact that Ben Roethlisberger seemed to be lost. He is definitely not the same kind of player he used to be. Not like when he started in 2003, with the Steel Curtain. He…

Ladies and Gentlemen, I’m a woman.
Ladies and Gentlemen, We are gathered here to witness…. …another act of misogyny in the universe of professional sports. Cam Newton was so damn stupid with his response to Jourdan Rodrigue’s question. For one day, he beat out Donald Trump for stupidest comment. Her question was really smart. It was about route running, which is the path a…

Sharpshooter is in the house… Chronicle Style!
Lionel Ritchie’s song “Dancing on the Ceiling” was on my mind all weekend long. You must be wondering why….. Sharpshooter Funding and The Chronicle are teaming up!! You see, The Chronicle has been posting some interesting articles about Canadian businesses lately and with the help of the Sharpshooter team, I think we can continue to rock it. I think it is important to encourage each other in our ventures. Through…

Day 1 FORMULA E Style
To witness the being the scene of a championship is truly a dream being a reality. I’m singing in my head ”Heaven, I’m in Heaven” loud and clear. Again in my head. The nerves are in control but I won’t lie, it can be taunting but I feel like I was at home. It’s a…
