Covid-19 POV: Pilot Blog

The STRONGEST pandemic of the 2020 decade. This was going to be an exciting year for EVERYONE! Leading up to January, talks of the town consisted of "I can't believe it's going to be a decade", "What was I doing in 2010??", "Wow a decade already??", and much more. I for 1 can say that  I was very excited for 2020. When I was younger, I would lay around the TV on Friday evenings watching whatever it was that the news channel had to offer. Many times would I indulge in the show that was known as 2020. From what I can remember, it was great stories of your everyday average people doing amazing things in life. The show covered lives both domestically in the U.S.A and globally around the world. One of the funniest episodes that aired was when this African guy was talking about how the Homosexuals in their country were enjoying the arts of fisting and eating feces from the anal area. The fact that people were doing that stuff wasn't the humorous part, it was more so how angry it made the guy feel.  He was one of those guys who used his hands to express what he was feeling. So when he made a fist with his hand and started licking the tip as if it was an ice cream cone, it was a pretty funny sight to see. 

2020 however, is not so funny. It must be a coincidence how that episode aired on the 2020 series because it  I were to summarize 2020 in 3 words or less, I'd say it was "Shit. Pure SHIT". But I can't complain. This silent killer took damn near half the whole world like it was a spawn from Thanos or some shit. I'm just thankful that none of my family members were caught in the grasp of Covid-19. I lost my job and so did my brother and cousin but we kind of sorta bounced back in a way. I, along with my cousin and a childhood friends of my brother now work at a collection agency that I used to intern for. This is the pinnacle for innovation. I was always told that  I was a creative person, so maybe this is God's way of saying; "No more EXCUSES!! This year, you will show me what you can do. Now, go on and CREATE!!!". That was my impression of a higher being if you didn't realize. 

I don't know what to expect with this blogger. I don't plan on making any money through this. The reviews on blogger.com already slander the fact that the platform is owned by Google and that it's hard to monetize the content you create. However, at the same time I have nothing else planned to do. Not to mention, I'm really good at writing paragraphs full of useless content. Using this platform will also help me feel like I'm not completely useless in life. I read somewhere once that happiness doesn't stem from perfect conditions, but perfect conditions stem from happiness. If this will be my vehicle towards happiness, then so be it. I'm ready for the growth chapter, the ups and downs, the slips and slides, and all the other things in between. Thank you for listening! :D.

Nike Personified

Th ere are brands advertised to people every day, with more being thought up of every minute. With each brand advertised, there are multiple people who become attached to a certain brand, thus forming a sense of brand loyalty. I’ve come across a lot of brands in my life , tending to direct my loyalty towards a select few. However, there is a dominant brand that I have come to really affiliate myself with, “Nike” . According to the website of Nike, “Nike, Inc. is an American multinational corporation that is engaged in the design, development, manufacturing and worldwide marketing and sales of footwear, apparel, equipment, accessories, and services”. With that being said, I feel like if this brand were to ever “ come to life ” , it would be more than just a single person. If the brand “Nike” ever came to life as a person, it would be in the form s of a man, a woman, a boy , and a girl, creating a Ni ke family. I feel that this is the appropriate incarnation to giv e the bra...

Nike's Influence on the Conformation of Society

              There are many products of today that people tend to buy in order to “conform” themselves with the rest of society. Whether it’s the lower class, middle class, or upper class, there is always one product that strikes the mind of individuals. The product that I decided to focus this study on is NBA Nike brand shoes. Nike brand shoes can apply to all people but are most commonly found amongst the younger crowd of today. The other large competing brand, Air Jordan, resembles the exact same level of demand as Nike. There are multiple reasons why Nike appeals to the younger generation of today. The company is known highly for its inner connection with super sport athletes everywhere. Almost every commercial that Nike airs on television includes a well-known athlete wearing the clothing or shoes. From Basketball and Football to Soccer and Baseball, Nike always finds a way to make a name for themselves in every sport. This wou...

Reviews by Pancho @ "Game Theory, Sports, and Economics"

⚽Game Theory, 🏀Sports, and 🎾Economics After reviewing the three articles, I noticed that they all focused on how sports and economics are similar. The article Suspense vs. Purity specifically talked about how time was involved with playing sports. The limited time in each game changes the way that players act or do things during the match. For example, in basketball, football, and hockey, players seem to act in ways that would either score them more points or stall the opponents from gaining further points when the time to end is near. This method is known as the Axelrodian approach The second article, Game Theory and Major Leagues talked about how strategy in plays and moves could be beneficial to any team. This method of minimax or the set of plays that minimizes their maximum possible loss could help more teams in winning their games. Statistics were shown to analyze how this would apply with a sports team. In football, for example, an average pass between the player’s gai...
