Chicago Bears

Image
 The Chicago bears are only 3 games behind first place in their division. The Bears have a record of 2-5, which is not too bad, but could be better. The Detroit lions are sitting in first place with a record of 5-2, which is really good. The Vikings and packers on the other hand are just a little better than the bears, but only have a one game lead over them. The Chicago Bears play the Chargers this week on Sunday night football. The Bears starting QB is probably going to be Tyson Bagnet since Justin Fields is still dealing with a injury.  In my opinion, if Tyson Bagnet wins this week, Justin Fields is going to be in trade talks. The NFL trade deadline is October 31, and if the Bears want to get any good trade value out of him, it is best for them to trade him before this trade deadline. 

Chicago Bears Week 6 Game

Image
 This upcoming week the Chicago Bears are going to play the Minnesota Vikings. Last week the Minnesota Vikings may have lost their star wideout for a few weeks. Justin Jefferson is one of the best WR in football and without him the Vikings won't be the same. The Chicago Bears are coming off their best game of the season again the Washington Commanders last Thursday. They won, 40-20. The Vikings are favored to win by 2.5 points for some reason even though they don't have their star wideout. My projection for this upcoming game against the Vikings is, Bears 27, Vikings 10. 

Kobe Bryant

    I decided to pick not only a image on my phone, I picked a famous quote by Kobe Bryant. The quote said "If you're afraid to fail, then you're probably going to fail". The background picture is a picture of Kobe Bryant holding up the front of his jersey for everyone to see while he is on the court. This quote could mean lots of different things depending on who reads it. For me the quote means, everyone fails in their life, even the best people fail. Failing does not mean you are bad at life, it means that no one is perfect in life and that is ok.      Something else that comes to my mind when I see this quote is when you think you are going to fail, you probably are because you are thinking about every possible scenario that could happen in that situation. Kobe Bryant is one of the top 5 NBA players of all time and he probably failed a lot of times in his basketball career.  He probably learned more when he made mistakes then when he did not make a...

College Experiences

Image
  So far my college experience has been pretty good. Someone in my dorm building the other day invited me to do a fantasy basketball draft in the upcoming weeks. I am very excited about doing that. School on the other hand has been pretty good to, I am just nervous about my first exams in all of my classes. I really don't want to do bad on the first exam on the semester. Bring your grade up from a D to a A is really hard to do and I really don't want to be in that situation in my first semester in college. 

Visual Literacy

 For me a photo can mean a thousand words. Most people don't see the same things in a photo. We all have different things we look for in photos. For a example I see a man jumping to the pylon to try to score a touchdown. We all see things differently and there is no wrong way to see a photo.  The film that I picked is Blackfish. Overall the film was pretty interesting. There were a lot of cool and interesting facts I did not know about sea world that i did not know. 

Chess

 Chess is very important to me because it helped me figure out who I am as a person. I really like playing chess because it keeps my mind off things. Whenever I am stressed and I just need time to cool down, I just go to chess.com and just play a few games. After a while, I start to decompress and relax. Not only is chess relaxing for me, it is fun to play in tournaments and events. Chess can help you with your critical thinking skills and help you think moves in advance.
