It's been a while

Man, it's been a long ass time since I have blogged about my life. I have changed so much since the last time I wrote a blog, I have become disconnected form hockey as I am just tired of losing for so long. FC Barcelona, J. Cole, and good hip hop have become my passions. Lupe Fiasco is still one of my favorite artists but to me he hasn't been the same since he dropped The Cool. That's been a while. So let's get started now, same old system.
Barca. Today, I watched a documentary on the one, the only, Lionel Messi. I seriously do not understand how people can still argue that he's not the best player in the world, and in my opinion, of all time. Granted, he hasn't won a world cup, but no one has ever claimed he can take on a whole team by himself. Also, last world cup, and for a few games after that the team around him has been mediocre. Messi needs players around him that attract defenders like in Barca. Teams know that if they mark Lionel Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Alexis, Fabregas, Pedro, and Villa can all cause them damage. Argentina just doesn't give him the right players for him to succeed. He needs wingers that cut in and can finish with ease, and midfielders that at the same time, can find him with ease so he doesn't have to carry the ball up from midfield for the entire game. That's enough about Messi, now to my joint-favorite player on Barcelona, Don Andres Iniesta. This man scores whenever we need it doesn't he? Closed the game off against AC Milan last night, semi-final against Chelsea 2009, and the World Cup final just to name a few important ones.  He glides past players with close control that even legends of the game marvel. I'm glad we got Cesc Fabregas because Iniesta is not the next Xavi. He's just the Don. Pique! As soon as he starts playing like the old beast, he gets injured. What the hell?!?!?! When he was barely doing anything, he was fine, and now this? Bullshit.
J. Cole. I have a friend who says all his songs sound the same, I have another friend who hates on him for no reason and likes Chris Brown. If any of you really think that there's a mainstream rapper better than Cole(excluding Eminem) then you guys are foolish. This man has it all, the flow, the rhymes, and the content. He can rap about deep shit and about dumb ass shit and still sound better than any rapper. The guy can spit that's all I need to say. Just for ya'll to believe me, I'm going to give you some lyrics from one of my favorite songs by Cole, Grown Simba.
"I'm a star, Converses conversin with them girls with them curves like cursive.
They open like curtains, cause my shit is unheard of like curses on the radio.
Same bitches used to play me though.
 Now they yellin, where ya going nigga?"
It's a Cole World.
