SEGA (Video Game Company)

 This month is a celebration of one of my favorite video game companies ever! Sega is the main reason for why I fell in love with video games and it is crazy to think that this company is now 65 years old.

Sega began its journey selling things like coin operated amusement machines such as the slot machines before moving into the arcade business in the 1980s as well as the home gaming console market.

The very first gaming console created by Sega was SG-1000 back in 1982 and Sega has been involved with video gaming ever since.

Of course being a 90s kid, I never got to play the SG-1000 or the Master System for that matter. I was introduce to Sega thanks to the Sega Genesis and man did I ever love that system.

What I loved most about Sega was the incredible games that were coming through like Golden Axe, Virtua Fighter and of course Sonic the Hedgehog. Also I loved the arcade games like Virtua Fighter as much as I did with the home console version, Burnout, After Burner, etc.

But ultimately, the system I enjoyed playing so much from them was the Dreamcast which blew the roof off of everything, especially with games like the Sonic Adventure series along with Shenmue.

Sega also introduced me to one of inspirations as a writer in Yu Suzuki who created a ton of the awesomeness that came from Sega.

Sadly, Sega are no longer making consoles which is a shame because, I truly love Sega, but nonetheless, I happy that they are still making games. Some of my current favorite games to play from them are games like the Persona series and I am glad to see Sonic still going after all these years.

But thanks to people like Sega Lord X along with several other people who love Sega, I get to see some incredible stuff and learn about things that I did not know about.

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

2009 Lewistown Panthers Baseball

Image
 Well, with me trying to become more positive about myself, I have been looking back into the past and find ways to let go of some of the negative emotions attached to it. One such issue was going back to my time at Lewistown Area High School which as mentioned before was a huge struggle for me.  But again, trying to be more positive, I wanted to look back at that time and remember some of the good moments during that period. One of which was playing for the Lewistown Panthers baseball team. Heading into my senior year of high school, I wasn't in the best state of mind. Honestly, I really did not want to be there anymore, I was just so sick of life, never thought I was going to be anything. All I ever was going to be was a huge disappointment. I can only give credit to God for being able to get through that year. But then baseball tryouts came along and I decided to go for it again. The previous years I've tried only to fail, which in fairness, wasn't much of a surprise bec...

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...

The 2005 Lewistown Panthers Football Team!

Image
 I recently completed reading my story for Hometown Sports Magazine about the 2005 Lewistown Panthers football team who finally ended a thirty years of losing seasons. In this blog, I wanted to talk about why I wanted to write about this team and how I feel the lessons that were learned about them throughout the year can still be used today.  One of the biggest reasons as to why I wanted to write about this team was because of how much of team these guys were both on and off the field. These guys have played the game of football together for a number of years and it clearly showed. Plus being a youngster, I really didn't know the history of Lewistown Panthers football. I only remember going to games because I remember my cousins playing on the team. But talking about the football team in general, to put it nicely, there wasn't a lot of success. In fact when I started this journey of writing this story, I discovered that Lewistown didn't have a winning season for thirty year...
