I'm a little nuts. If that scares you, I guess I'm sorry :) And please, Flattr me if you like my little nuts! My experiences at a for-profit college are all here. Now that it is election season, you'll see a LOT of memes from the debates!

Holy cow! I can't believe it's already been a year since I've filmed this! This is The Sports Entertainment News Program. Basically it's me talking about Pro Wrestling with some Alternative Facts.
(The Sports Entertainment News Program on WWE Payback 2016)
This was so hastily shot that I didn't realize I look like a face floating talking about WWE Payback. Haha! It was a last second idea thrown together faster than the standard WWE booking.
If you watched the news program, do you think this is something I should start back up with a little better set design)? It was fun for me, just making up a bunch of stuff! Just comment or tweet me @BLoafX!
How big of a wrestling nerd am I? Well, the main reason (I'd say about 98%) I have ever had cable television is to watch WWE Monday Night RAW and whatever other wrestling shows there are on TV! It's absolute bullsnap that I have to pay for a whole cable package for a whole bunch of channels I don't even watch! And no, I'm not going to stream the shows without paying for them (I'm a loser).
Enter an alternative way of watching TV - TV streaming channels! There are a few main options currently: PlayStation Vue, Sling TV, and Direct TV Now. You can get USA Network on all three services. Here are a few notes on what I think about them (the channels are linked to their channel listings):
PlayStation Vue: I had the PlayStation Vue for a week on a trial period. Their DVR (which records shows you want to the cloud) was great. They had some on demand content as well for $29.99
The major drawback for me is the fact that I couldn't watch any WWE shows live on original broadcasts. I like getting on Twitter and tweeting about wrestling as they are, and the vast majority of people who tweet do so during the original live broadcast.
@PlayStation So people all over the world I'm seeing tweet #RAW live and I can't watch live on Vue? How do I watch Live?
USA Network is available on their 2nd cheapest package, the Blue package, for $25. Also, when I signed up, I was able to get a Roku 3 for $49.99 (at the time, it originally was $99). The Roku 3 was a big upgrade from the Roku 2.
Sling TV's on demand content is by far the largest. They are beta testing their DVR service (which, unfortunately, they did not let me in on!) I had a little problem with streams for about the first week, but other than that, there is a short delay when watching TV (I'd say about 30 seconds).
(So far, no one has tagged me in a tweet to @Sling crediting me for a new subscription!)
Direct TV Now:Direct TV Now is what I'm currently running on. Of the three services, I dislike this one the most. The stream stops every once in a while. Sometimes it will restart itself, other times I have to change the channel to get the stream working again.
On the plus side, I did get an Amazon Fire Stick with Voice Remote for free with the purchase of a month. This is because Direct TV doesn't have an app on Roku. I haven't had any issues with the Fire Stick and streaming on anything else except Direct TV. Also, if you have AT&T Unlimited Plus, make sure to check out their bundle deal with Direct TV Now.
(Direct TV Now is pretty limited on what it can run on. On my laptop, it won't run on any browser, and there is no app for Windows. It runs fine on my phone, though)
Final Verdict: Sling TV. It'll be Sling TV x 2 when they get their cloud service up. But watch out Sling! YouTube TV is coming out. When I checked them, they haven't released in my area yet (Las Vegas). However, since it is a local deal, they may be like the Vue and broadcast for the west coast (this means no live wrestling for me!) I'll update this when I get the chance to try it out!
Let me know what you think! Follow me on Twitter @BLoafX!
As reported from Reuters on MSN.com, United has reached a settlement with the passenger dragged off the plane a couple weeks ago. You can see a few of my thoughts on that incident here.
It turns out the man dragged from the plane is getting an "undisclosed sum" (a.k.a. way too much money) for the incident. Worse yet, United has vowed to reduce overbookings. This is bad news for me! I have thrived many times in the past from overbookings!
However, United also claims it will give up to $10,000 in compensation. In case you don't understand that, that is $10k, or Ten Thousand Dollars, or $10,000.00, or ten one thousand dollars. So basically United has turned from betting Red at the Roulette table to betting on the street.
Also, Southwest says it will stop overbooking flights. This means I won't be flying on Southwest because passengers are going to be extremely unreasonable when they can't get on a flight because of delays.
This should make for interesting time when an overbooking does occur. I can guarantee you, though, that when that offer gets up to $400, I'm gonna fall out of my seat in acceptance.
For about 8 years now, I've been jokingly saying that I'll be running for president in 2020 (that's when I'll be at least 35 years old). I've had a handful of people tell me they'll vote for me!
My campaign slogan and battle cry is "YOU HAVE A CHOICE!"
I started a string of campaign ads. I plan on doing some more soon. Let me know what you think of them!
Topic: Homelessness
The statistics shared in this campaign ad are shocking. But you must remember, that if you are homeless, YOU HAVE A CHOICE to be homeless or not, just as this video demonstrates!
Topic: Who Should Get Married?
It is important that a marriage is a sacred ritual. It is more important to remember that marriage is a partnership and can help you if you are really busy!
Topic: Heart Attacks
The health issue is a hotly contested topic in America and the World today. However, it is important to remember that YOU HAVE A CHOICE when it comes to your health. Maybe you should utilize your power of choice - it can do more for you than you know.
Topic: One Man's Choice
Abraham Lincoln is one of our worst presidents we've ever had. His choice to commit war on the South because they didn't want to be a part of his tyranny cements his terrible presidency. This campaign ad highlights this event in our history.
Topic: Shootings
Shootings are a so common in today's societies. Guns allow them to happen. However, you must remember that if you encounter a shooter doing a shooting, YOU HAVE A CHOICE....
Topic: China Vs. America
America discharges ordinance around the world daily. But....what if another country HAD A CHOICE and did it to America? These are important questions you have to ask when it comes to voting because YOU HAVE A CHOICE!
Topic: Happiness
Can you believe there are people who are born choosing to be unhappy? Remember, when it comes to your happiness, YOU HAVE A CHOICE!
What topics would you like to see campaign ads on? Leave a comment or tweet me @BLoafX for some topic suggestions!
Marriage is such a big issue. It has always been such a big issue. Who should get married? Should you get married? Please watch this BLoafX for President 2020 campaign ad to learn more:
How many people do you know that have been married? Are they happy? Are they doing everything they want to do? Before making that choice of marriage, look around and see how those around you are.
As president, you shall have the choice to get married or not under my presidency. However, I do not believe that it should be something the government needs to worry about. Marriage should be between individuals and whatever force (or nothing but themselves) brings them together. Why should the federal government care what one, two, three, or how many ever people who love each other do?
The RAW Loaf takes a look at The RAW Before WrestleMania! Do Goldberg and Lesnar kill each other? Does Bayley somehow get Sasha Banks and Charlotte disqualified from their match at WrestleMania?
(Was RAW the Ultimate Thrill Ride that WrestleMania 33 wanted to be?)
In my opinion, RAW was not the Ultimate Thrill Ride. The major takeaway for me was Goldberg. Maybe it is because I've never been a Goldberg fan - the whole character to me is boring, especially at Oldberg's age. Did you not see him vs. Kevin Owens? Oldberg just stood in the ring all those times Kevin Owens got out of the ring and prevented the start of the match.
Every year, the WWE does a video giving us a whole bunch of numerical achievements the Royal Rumble has. For the 30th Royal Rumble in 2017, the numbers were greater than ever!
However, what about all the other numbers? Do you think there are numbers the WWE Doesn't want you to see? Check out the video below for the REAL Royal Rumble numbers!
(There have been numerous accusations of racism in the WWE. Does this video provide the proof?)
Be sure to share this video with your friends if they love the Royal Rumble....maybe it will give them some REAL insight on what REALLY is going on!!!
