Pacman Jones... Criminal?

Pacman Jones is a cornerback for the Tennessee Titans. He has always been a fan favorite for all the people of Tennessee. He attended community activities and visited sick children in hospitals. That is until he became involved in multiple crimes around the town.
Pacman began his crime spree on July 13, 2005 where he was arrested and charged with assault and felony vandalism after a nightclub altercation. This was only the beginning of his committed crimes. Next, on September 5, 2005 he was invited to a luncheon with his teammates. He got into a verbal arguement with one of his teammates which led to him going on a verbal tirade. He had to be restraind and taken out in handcuffs. On March 26, 2007 he was charged with possession of marijuana.
This was only the beginning of Pacman's chain of crimes. He was charged and convicted three more times from then until now. In response to his crimes, the commissioner of the NFL decided to suspend him from the league for one season and take away his contract making him a free agent at the beginning of next season.

Chargers Home Opener

In a successful start to the San Diego Chargers season, they faced a tough defensive team, the Chicago Bears. It was a meeting between the top two teams from last year. Also, between the best offense facing the best defense.
The mvp of last year, Ladanian Tomlinson, was held to a minimum on the ground rushing. Tomlinson was still a big factor in the Chargers victory. He had one rushing touchdown and also threw for a touchdown. He threw his touchdown to his tightend, Antonio Gates who is in the top 3 for best tightends in the league.
On the other side of the ball, the Chargers defense had a big game. Only allowing three points in four quarters of play. They had three shut-out quarters and also two interceptions. Due to there steller defense, it allowed San Diego to always have good field position and have chances to see the endzone.
The San Diego Chargers had an all-around successful start to there season. This upcoming week they will be facing there toughest competitors of the year, the New England Patriots. Let's all just hope that they have another showing as they did in week one.

Why I write?

I write because it helps me to take my minds off other things that are going on in the world. I write just for the fact that I enjoy writing about things. I write because there are things that are left unsaid. I write when there is no one to turn to in the world. I write due to the fact that I can make ideas come into reality. I write because it lets me express myself. I write because it helps me to memorize what I am looking at. I write to communicate with my friends and family. I write because it is easier to write to people then to confront them face to face. I write to clear my old thoughts to make room for new ones. I write so that I have something to read about and reflect on later during my life. I write because I am required to write for school and for other matters. I write when I am mad and in doing so release all my anger and become into a state of happiness. I write what I dream the night before. I write about what I would like to achieve and what I want to become. I write to prove to people of what I am capable of writing. I write because it keeps me busy when I am bored. I write so that the world can hear me within my thoughts. I write to music because it lets me express myself in my own world. I write when everything is silent. I write away bad memories so that they may be forgotten. I write to discover new words that I did not know of. I write to make peace within myself. I write to inform the young and the clueless. I write for motivation. I write about what I daydream so I do not forget it. I write to express feelings in which I can not express in any other way. I write for the good of others. I write because it helps me to understand myself. I write when I’m hungry and thirsty. I write as many words as I can in a minute to see how fast I can write. I write because I don’t trust anyone. I write to people who are far away from me. I write words because I am fearful of speaking them. I write because I am touched by words. I write what I love and how much I love it when I believe that love is coming to an end. I write continuously until all the words I’ve been searching for are on the page. I write to answer all the unanswered questions that linger me in my head. I write because it helps me keep my composure. I write what I see and what I hear throughout the day. I write to get rid of the pain that is caused. I write to keep in touch with my inner self. I write as if I was communicating with the one I love. I write passionately so that others who read my writing are interested. I write my mistakes so I do not commit the same mistakes over again. I write to God to keep in touch with my spiritual side. I write about success and not to failure. I write in a personal planner so I know what I have to accomplish that day without forgetting. I write to discover the unknown. I write what I feel in my heart and what I hear in my head. I write to my favorite sport athletes hoping to one day become as good as they are. I write to translate words for others who can’t. I write myself to sleep. I write because it makes me a smarter person each time I write words down. I write to see how good of a write I am and to test my intelligence. I write because the more I write the better I will get at it, which will help me succeed later on in life. I write until I can’t think of anything else to write, therefore I will be writing forever.
