Sons Of Anarchy! (TV Show)

 It is crazy to think that this show has now been done for 10 years now. And still holds up as one of the best shows ever. To this very day, you can still feel the impact that it had from back in the day and that show is Sons Of Anarchy.

Sons Of Anarchy was created by Kurt Sutter back in 2008, which made me a junior in high school. The show aired on the channel FX and it follows an outlaw motorcycle club in the fictional town of Charming, California. Common themes that the show had throughout its run was love, brotherhood, loyalty, betrayal and redemption. 

The show follows Jax Teller played by Charles Hunham who discovered his father's manifesto and learned about his concerns with the direction of the club.

I remember first seeing the show and honestly, right from the opening song that was played before every episode, it just grabs at me and I was hooked. The song was called This Life by Curtis Stigers and the Forest Rangers. It was just pure poetry. 

Plus, I always had this weird fantasy of being this tough biker and be able to ride a motorcycle which to be perfectly honest, I don't think that I would be able to do that in real life. I probably just fall over trying to ride the thing 😂.

It was weird for me too because of this show was about outlaw bikers and for some strange reason, these guys were awesome and I wish I could be a part of something like that. Maybe it is because I never really had a set group of friends in my own life. But these guys looked like they would be there for me no matter what.

The characters, the storytelling were always incredible to watch. I mean, holy crap I hope to make characters and stories like that someday and make impact on other people. It was basically Hamlet on motorcycles which makes sense how the series of based on the Shakespeare play.

My personal favorite character was Opie and spoiler alert, his death was really painful to see. Even though I admire how he sacrificed himself for his friends. Heck even the actor Ryan Hurst who played Opie was crying about it. You know you created an amazing character when the actor that plays him is shook up by it.

An interesting fact about the show was that SAMCRO took some inspiration from the local Hells Angels Motorcycle Club, some actual members were special guest appearances. A former member David Labrava who played Happy Lowman.

Again it is crazy that this show ended 10 years ago. Congrats to you Kurt Sutter! 

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody!🙏🙏🙏

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob...

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting...

 Recently, I had found out that a family friend of ours named Nick Dickson had a stroke and people have been doing what they can to support him and his family. Nick is a local mechanic who has been serving this community for many, many years and has always been a generous, hard worker and honorable person at the Dickson's Garage along with his father Ken. He and his father are also local racing legends around here in Mifflin County having raced for a couple generations now. Nick and his family have always been honest with me and my family and has helped take care of our vehicles for many years. They are amazing,  hardworking people who now need our help. And according to the go fund me page that was set up by Andrea Baker and Valeri Thornburgh. The doctors had told his family that it will take months at minimum for him to be able to recover and will not be able to work for the foreseeable future. Please support anyway you can for the Dickson family in their time of need. ...
