Reggie Miller: Beyond the Glory (Basketball Documentary)---Fish Eye Lens For My Indiana Friends---BE CAREFUL OUT THERE... YOU NEVER KNOW WHO YOU ARE DEALING WITH!!!---THE SAYING IS TRUE... NEVER, EVER! JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER


Reggie shouldve left Indiana... Its where KKK originated lol
JM Talboo 
+Bryan Tan He played in Indianapolis and it isn't a racist city. "The Indiana Black Expo Summer Celebration is the largest ethnic–cultural event in the United States. This ten-day event, held in the Indiana Convention Center as well as various places around Indianapolis, draws African Americans to Indianapolis from both around the state and around the country. Organized in 1970, the Black Expo has provided networking, educational, career, and cultural opportunities for its guests. Participation at the 2006 Summer Celebration reached record highs, with over 350,000 in attendance." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Black_Expo "Did ESPN’s Colin Cowherd really just call Indiana Pacers fans racist? The Pacers enjoyed one of the most raucous home crowds on Earth back in the days of Reggie Miller’s epic battles with Michael Jordan of the Bulls and John Starks of the Knicks. Jermaine O’Neal became a superstar center in Indiana. Heck, this fan base even rallied around Ron Artest after the Malace in the Palace — if that isn’t true fan loyalty, not to mention the furthest thing from racism out there, then we don’t know what is... Indiana’s not racist. Cowherd just felt the need to put a little word vomit out into the public sphere, simple as that." http://gamedayr.com/sports/did-espns-colin-cowherd-really-just-call-indiana-pacers-fans-racist/ "Based on U.S. Census data from the year 2000 for the fifty largest cities in the United States, Indianapolis ranked eighth highest in a University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee study that compared percentages of residents living on black-white integrated city blocks." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indianapolis#Demographics

Hardcore/Punk Band ILLITHED


ILLITHED was formed in 1994 in the bedroom of a trailer where the bands first [anti-racist] anthem "My Gramma Joined the KKK" was written. 


The original lineup included Marcus (Microphones), Jay (Guitars), Joe (Guitars), Mike (Drums) and Kevin (Bass). ILLITHED played their very first show with this lineup - opening for Bouncing Souls back in 1995 at the Emerson Theatre. Around 1996 Marcus, Jay and Joe separated from Mike and Kevin but kept ILLITHED alive. It was around this time that Alex became the new drummer, and Joe moved to bass to fill the vacancy. Soon after "Gun for an Idiot" was released on cassette tape, a collection of the band's first recording. It was recorded at Rubber Room studios, above some guy's garage in the suburbs of Indianapolis, IN. Time went by and the band released their sophomore effort "Pogram" around 1997. This was recorded by Dirty Doug at DIY studios, where they kept an inordinately large snake in a terrarium. After this recording the band decided to add a second pair of lungs to add more power to the band. His name was John Talboo., whose distinct style and ideology was a welcomed addition to the group. Keeping with tradition, a year later the Self Titled album was released, but this time on 7" vinyl. Again, this was recorded at Rubber Room studios, only now it wasn't above some guys garage. After recording the Self Titled album ILLITHED added a second guitarist, Little Robby H. His infectious metal influence has played a significant role in the shaping of the architecture of the band's sound as it stands today. You can also find ILLITED on the following compilations: Songs of the Dead II - Idle hands "Big Top Evil" Happy Couples Never Last Relics of an Ordinary Life "Around Tuit." Around 1999 the ILLITED split their separate ways. After a 5 year hiatus a reunion show took place in 2004 with Marcus, Jay, Rob Alex and Joe to a maximum capacity crowd. Since the show the reunion has stuck, and currently new songs are being written to scare your neighbors and give you nightmares. June 2006

Peyton Manning vs. Tom Brady: The Case for Manning as the Superior Quarterback

Peyton Manning vs. Tom Brady: The Case for Manning as the Superior Quarterback


The debate over who is the greatest quarterback in NFL history often circles around two names: Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Both quarterbacks have left an indelible mark on the game, but a closer examination of their careers, statistics, and the contexts in which they played reveals that Peyton Manning may have been the better quarterback. Here’s why.

1. Statistical Dominance

Peyton Manning’s career is a treasure trove of statistical achievements that highlight his consistency, accuracy, and ability to adapt over time. 

Passing Yards and Touchdowns: Manning retired as the NFL's all-time leader in passing yards (71,940) and touchdown passes (539), both of which were surpassed later by Brady, but it’s crucial to note that Manning achieved these milestones in fewer seasons. Manning reached 50,000 passing yards and 400 touchdowns faster than any quarterback in history. 

Regular Season MVPs: Manning holds the record for the most NFL MVP awards, with five (2003, 2004, 2008, 2009, 2013). This speaks volumes about his ability to elevate his team's performance year after year. In contrast, Tom Brady has three MVP awards, highlighting Manning's dominance over more seasons.

Quarterback Rating: Peyton Manning also boasts one of the highest career passer ratings, consistently finishing seasons near the top of the league in this metric. His career passer rating of 96.5 is impressive, especially considering that he played in a more balanced era before the NFL became more pass-heavy.

2. Offensive Influence and Intelligence

Manning was often described as a "coach on the field," and this wasn’t hyperbole. His ability to read defenses and make adjustments at the line of scrimmage was unparalleled. Manning was known for calling his own plays, audibling frequently, and completely controlling the tempo of the game. This football IQ is often cited by coaches and players alike as one of the main reasons why he was so successful.

According to former Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy, “Peyton ran the offense. He made it go. That was him out there. We gave him the latitude to change the entire playbook at the line because we trusted his decision-making more than anyone else’s.” This level of autonomy is something that Brady, who operated within the confines of Bill Belichick’s system, didn’t have to the same extent.

3. Success Across Multiple Systems

Manning’s ability to succeed in different offensive systems is another point in his favor. He won Super Bowls with two different teams, the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos, under very different circumstances. His success with the Broncos in 2015, where he led the team to a Super Bowl victory despite struggling with injuries, showcased his adaptability and leadership.

On the other hand, Brady spent the vast majority of his career under the same head coach, Bill Belichick, in the same system with the New England Patriots. While his recent success with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is impressive, it’s worth noting that he was surrounded by an exceptionally talented roster.

4. Peak Performance vs. Longevity

Tom Brady's greatest asset has been his longevity and ability to remain effective deep into his 40s. However, if we focus on peak performance, Manning's 2013 season is arguably the greatest single-season by a quarterback in NFL history. That year, he threw for 5,477 yards and 55 touchdowns—both NFL records at the time. This level of dominance, particularly in a season where defenses were adjusting to the modern passing game, is unmatched.

Football analyst Chris Wesseling once noted, "Manning’s 2013 season was like nothing we’ve ever seen. He wasn’t just breaking records; he was setting new standards for what a quarterback could do in the modern era.”

5. The Context of Competition

Manning faced some of the toughest defenses of the 2000s and 2010s, regularly going up against strong divisional rivals like the Baltimore Ravens and New England Patriots. Despite this, he consistently led his teams to the playoffs and performed at a high level. Manning played in an era where the rules were slightly less favorable to quarterbacks than they became later in Brady’s career, making his accomplishments even more impressive.

Conclusion

Tom Brady’s career is undoubtedly legendary, marked by incredible longevity and an unmatched seven Super Bowl titles. However, when we look at the totality of their careers, considering peak performance, individual accomplishments, and the different contexts in which they succeeded, Peyton Manning emerges as the superior quarterback.

Manning’s blend of statistical dominance, football intelligence, adaptability across different systems, and his impact on the game set him apart. While the debate will undoubtedly continue, there’s a strong case to be made that Peyton Manning, not Tom Brady, deserves the title of the greatest quarterback of all time.

Exploring the Paranormal with PROOF Paranormal and the Legacy of Investigations

Exploring the Paranormal with PROOF Paranormal and the Legacy of Investigations

Intro

In the realm of paranormal investigation, few teams have made as significant an impact as PROOF Paranormal. Founded by Justin Hammans and John Talboo, PROOF Paranormal has delved into some of the most enigmatic locations across the United States. With a reputation for thorough investigations and a commitment to uncovering the truth, the team has left a mark on both the field and its followers.

A Storied History

PROOF Paranormal was established in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 2005 by Justin Hammans and John Talboo. The group quickly gained recognition for its detailed investigations and commitment to exploring the unknown. PROOF Paranormal's investigations have spanned a variety of locations, including private residences, historic landmarks, and infamous sites like prisons. The team has been featured in print publications such as NUVO and has become known for their detailed and methodical approach to paranormal research.

Notable Investigations and Collaborations

One of PROOF Paranormal's most notable affiliations was with the TAPS Family, an elite network of paranormal investigative teams. This connection was solidified after Justin Hammans and fellow investigator Dan met TAPS members Grant Wilson and Jason Hawes at a bar. Their subsequent collaboration involved hosting overnight stays at various haunted locations, including prisons, though TAPS was not involved with the Hannah House.

The Hannah House

"Hannah House, built in 1858 by Alexander Hannah, was part of the Underground Railroad that helped slaves escape north to Canada before the American Civil War. A group of traveling slaves were killed here one night when an oil lamp turned over and ignited a fire. The owner, Alexander Hannah, who was a prominent figure in the community, ended up burying the charred bodies in the basement for fear of retribution after hiding the runaway slaves in his mansion basement. Many claim to have seen their apparitions, heard ghostly moans, and even felt cold spots."


Memorable Experiences

John Talboo has had his share of memorable experiences, including seeing a white, wispy apparition at a creepy haunted trailer. The apparition, which resembled a friendly ghost, was observed by Talboo and a fellow investigator as it hovered above and in front of them before dissipating. This incident was separate from another profound experience where Talboo saw an apparition of a woman on the same night he dreamed of his deceased aunt in heaven. This personal encounter with the supernatural was described in detail on a recent podcast with Justin Hammans.

The Opera House Investigation

PROOF Paranormal also investigated the Guyer Opera House, a historic venue "haunted by a young boy who was killed during a Wild West gun show and the opera house's founder, O.K. Guyer. Haunting events reported at the opera house include lights turning on by themselves, banging noises, and doors opening without cause." This investigation was featured on the TV show "Across Indiana" on WFWI.


Educational Endeavors and Public Engagement

John Talboo pursued formal education in the field of paranormal studies, earning a diploma that added to his credentials in the field. For more information about his background, visit:


Additionally, PROOF Paranormal's new site provides comprehensive resources and evidence from their investigations:

Summary

PROOF Paranormal's dedication to uncovering the truth behind the unexplained has made them a respected name in the field of paranormal research. With a legacy of rigorous investigations and a commitment to sharing their findings, they continue to explore the boundaries of the known and unknown. Whether through collaborations with other teams, personal experiences, or public engagements, PROOF Paranormal remains a cornerstone in the pursuit of understanding the supernatural.

These are companies I'm forever boycotting and why, but do what you want...

These are companies I'm forever boycotting and why, but do what you want... 

So, first off let's cut off a few BS things off at the pass. I'm not homophobic and I supported gay marriage before Obama, as in forever in my life before the time he flip flopped and bomb dropped an awful lot of African countries. I also grew up in a largely black area of Indianapolis and was involved in activism there to protect blacks against racism and now appreciate blacks who do the same for me in reverse. Not to be confused with reverse racism, there is, in a literal sense, no such thing. There is only racism. 

I'm also just fine with trans people in general and a big fan of some like the confusingly beautiful, Blaire White. The activist types, however, tend to overreach very far in one direction unfortunately.  Furthermore, I'm also not one who personally minds calling someone their preferred pronouns, but if I think their choices are silly or illogical I won't hold back those thoughts and I'm also liberty/constitutionally minded and thus leery AF of any facsimile of institutionally compelled speech. There are demonstrably some slippery slopes ahead. The road to hell paved with good intentions was walked along clearly for all to see in the now echoed Chinese cultural revolution of the past. That shit show clearly should block the path of any like-minded future travelers, but alas many must have missed that apparently non-existent class?   

Colorado teacher calls for 'FORCEFUL cultural revolution' targeted at 'whiteness'

Mom who survived Mao's cultural revolution rips school for critical race theory

I apologize for using FOX News as a source for the above two links. They are on my shit list, but not totally banned. Just mostly. :) 

I also am a big fan of women. Some examples include Wonder WomanHarley Quinn, my mom and my wife. I'm anti-racism, but I'm proudly old school and that includes against White People. I'm all for sensible progress though! So it's not about any isms or phobes. It's about protecting children, companies and celebrities not exploiting their default pole position in public discourse, and people realizing their is a culturally manipulative, anti-human and anti-American globalist agenda with an MO of tyranny afoot.

It's also about the state of affairs being hijacked by minority positions that statistically speaking cannot be justified in the amount of hyper-focus they receive in the culture. It's also about ending manipulation of human emotions to divide and conquer moderates and civil debaters out of existence, in large part, because they understand that censorship is dangerous and that is the very reason free speech protections exist. Finally, it's about ending the discrimination against proud conspiracy theorists with good batting averages like that of, Alex Jones, who filled his "Alex Jones Was Right" style swear jar with coinage.  

Anyways, the following companies will get no future financial support from yours truly.

Special Rights Isn't Equal Rights---Psychologist Wants to ‘Expose and Shame’ Professors Giving Black Students Lower Grades Than Whites---OG Street Definition of Racism vs. Insanity of Modernity

Special Rights Isn't Equal Rights---Psychologist Wants to ‘Expose and Shame’ Professors Giving Black Students Lower Grades Than Whites---OG Street Definition of Racism vs. Insanity of Modernity

Psychologist Wants to ‘Expose and Shame’ Professors Giving Black Students Lower Grades Than Whites Fox News "We must do what we can to enable young African-American students to make their way through this hostile environment."

Reply:

If you want equality of outcome as opposed to opportunity (or "equity" as the buzzword buzzes) then take an IQ test, see if you score low, and if you do demand a monthly hardship/disability check for your plight. That makes more sense than punishing those who get good grades by rewarding the reverse. Of course, common sense isn't currently that common as of late, so even discussing IQ as it relates generally speaking to race is considered racist. So good luck getting the Government to pay cash to those who genuinely need it based on IQ. The fake news media spin doctors regarding this story would rather have you think racist teachers are being unfair, or perhaps just that somehow asking for special privileges for blacks in a meritocracy system makes sense because of slavery or some such tripe. Heaven forbid a discussion of why such a request might be happening because of a disadvantage! That would be helpful perhaps, but seems a bit racially charged and helping others is obviously less important than being wrongly perceived as a racist. In my predominantly black hometown of Indianapolis, AKA Naptown, our folk definition/understanding of the evils of racism was thus...

Applying group stereotypes to individuals and/or calling for terrorism or violence against a group one sees as wholly inferior is certainly racism as I always knew it. One could also have in group preference/prejudice, which was in my experience always seen as a lessor offense, just as was being too quick to judge based on stereotypes, but that was racist to larger degree than just being prejudiced.

All that said, the only truly vile type of racist, as in the epitome of that word's already evilly negative connotation, is the violent cross burning KKK types. Luckily those rejects were always a vocal minority and are long since extinct, absent the LARPing feds.

We Alex Jones types saw to it that those few toothless wonders fell for good to our protests, but nowadays I get old protest songs against the KKK censored for being racist because AI doesn't understand humor and satire and YouTube/Big Tech doesn't respect free speech human rights. Hell, wow even acknowledging general group truths in the form of some stereotypes is racism. And who needs threats of real world intimidation and violence when now a days words are considered literally violence and Make America Great Again is considered a white supremacist battle cry. And nope, no need to think your race is the top dog cream of the crop. Simply admitting than any racial group excels at something more overall than another means you are a supremacist. Even if that something is professional sports, where Larry is a legend, but gaged his success against black defenders. That's a racist slippery slope that no good anti-racist would even consider sliding on, LOOKING AT YOU LARRY, YOU RACIST! ðŸ¤¡ ðŸŒŽ 

In a 2004 interview with ESPN, Larry Bird revealed how much he admired the athleticism of African-American players. It almost always makes them the better defenders, aided to no lesser degree by their nature: “It is a black man's game, and it will be forever. I mean, the greatest athletes in the world are African-American."

Checking in

I had started this blog quite a while ago and then let it fall into disrepair but have decided to open it back up and start blogging again.

Here is a little catch up information. I was laid off of my job of over 20 years in September of 2009. After the lay off I decided to use some of the severance money to move back to my home state of Pennsylvania. My son, who wasn't working either, decided to make the journey with me. He was born in Pennsylvania but was five when we moved to Indianapolis.

We moved to the beautiful town on Franklin, PA in October of 2009. Franklin is a Victorian town where many of the houses have been well maintained and are listed in the National registry.

One example of a home there is shown below:


It was my dream before moving there to purchase a pink kayak and enjoy the river that was close to my new home. I did realize that dream and was hooked on kayaking from my first trip on the water. As a matter of fact my first trip was featured on the front page of the local newspaper!


We got to enjoy many of the festivities in Franklin throughout the year, such as Franklin on ice.

Bob and I also went bike riding on some of the trails.

I worked briefly for Joy Manufacturing as a parts chaser, or inventory control. My job consisted of tracking parts for some of the huge mining equipment they manufacture at the Franklin facility.

Later in the summer I found out I was eligible for TRA/TAA funding for school and have been attempting to get started on classes for Medical Assistant which are scheduled to start February 1st. It has been a grueling process of paperwork and testing and as of today's date I'm still waiting on official word from Harrisburg, PA.

Fast forward to the present...

John-Michael moved in with his fiance, Angie, and is living in Butler, PA. I moved in with Bob and am living in Pulaski, PA.

I've been working a part-time seasonal job selling calendars for Day By Day Calendars, a subsidary of Borders Express bookstore. That job will end in two more days.

If I don't start attending school I will be looking for full-time work. Wish me luck because there isn't much out there that pays more than minimum wage.

Have to get ready for work now. We'll chat more later. Have a great day.

Is the NFL Rigged? A Growing Debate Among Fans and Players

Is the NFL Rigged? A Growing Debate Among Fans and Players


For years, there have been whispers, allegations, and sometimes outright claims that the NFL might not be as fair and unpredictable as it seems. Critics have pointed to controversial referee calls, questionable outcomes, and even accusations from former players that raise suspicions of possible manipulation. Prominent among these claims are works like The Fix Is Still In by Brian Tuohy, who dives deep into the idea that professional sports—including the NFL—may be more about entertainment than competition. The debate has gained traction as more fans, analysts, and players question the integrity of the game.

Brian Tuohy and "The Fix Is Still In"

In his book The Fix Is Still In, Brian Tuohy explores the history of corruption in professional sports, focusing on the NFL, NBA, and MLB. His research highlights cases where games appeared to be rigged or manipulated for various reasons, ranging from boosting TV ratings to ensuring favorable outcomes for particular teams. Tuohy argues that the NFL is first and foremost an entertainment business, governed by laws and regulations that treat it as such, which means it's technically legal for the league to predetermine or influence the outcomes of its games.

One of the most compelling aspects of Tuohy’s work is his examination of how relatively few people need to be involved in rigging games. He suggests that in many cases, it might not require the participation of players or coaches. Instead, a handful of referees could influence the outcome with a few well-timed controversial calls.

The Arian Foster "Script" Controversy

Former NFL running back Arian Foster caused a stir when he joked on Barstool Sports' Macrodosing podcast that the NFL is rigged and that players receive a script for the season during training camp. Foster's remarks were clearly meant to be a joke, as he later clarified, but his comments touched on a growing belief among fans and some players that there could be more behind-the-scenes manipulation in the NFL than many realize. While Foster’s claims weren’t serious, they did resonate with a segment of fans who already suspected the league of foul play.

Larry Johnson's Claims

Another former NFL player, Larry Johnson, has also made waves by claiming that NFL games are rigged. Johnson’s statements, shared on platforms like Twitter, suggest that certain games are manipulated to ensure specific outcomes. While Johnson has not provided concrete evidence to back up his claims, his status as a former player adds weight to the accusations, fueling speculation and debate among fans .

Controversial Referee Calls

Perhaps the most visible evidence for those who believe the NFL is rigged comes from the frequency of controversial referee decisions. These bad calls can often alter the course of a game, leaving fans and analysts questioning the integrity of the league. Here are some examples:

- Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers (2019)
 In this infamous game, the Lions were on the receiving end of two highly questionable "hands to the face" penalties, both of which benefited the Packers. These calls essentially handed the game to Green Bay, and many Lions fans cried foul. As reported by Woodward Sports, the outrage among fans and media was widespread, with many calling for more accountability for referees .
  
- New Orleans Saints vs. Los Angeles Rams (2019 NFC Championship Game): One of the most notorious no-calls in NFL history occurred when Rams cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman blatantly interfered with Saints receiver Tommylee Lewis, yet no flag was thrown. This non-call helped send the Rams to the Super Bowl, sparking lawsuits from Saints fans and leading to calls for rule changes .

- Seattle Seahawks vs. Pittsburgh Steelers (Super Bowl XL): Multiple questionable calls in favor of the Steelers led to widespread accusations that the game was rigged. Critics pointed to several key plays, including a dubious offensive pass interference call against the Seahawks and a controversial touchdown ruling for the Steelers .

Dan Moldea and the NFL’s Mafia Connections

Investigative journalist Dan Moldea adds another layer to the argument in his work exploring the NFL’s connections to organized crime. Moldea’s research, archived on platforms like the Internet Archive, suggests that the NFL has a long history of ties to the Mafia, and some games have been influenced or outright fixed by organized crime elements . Moldea’s work points to the deep-rooted corruption that may exist within the league, further complicating the question of whether the NFL is rigged or not.

The Patriots: Deflategate and Spygate

Adding to the controversies are two of the most well-known cheating scandals in NFL history, both involving the New England Patriots:

- Spygate (2007): The Patriots were caught illegally videotaping the New York Jets’ defensive signals during a game, an action that led to a substantial fine for head coach Bill Belichick and the team. Many saw this as clear evidence of cheating within the league, and it tarnished the Patriots’ otherwise dominant reputation.

- Deflategate (2015): In this scandal, the Patriots were accused of deflating footballs during the AFC Championship Game against the Indianapolis Colts. Quarterback Tom Brady was suspended for four games, and the Patriots were fined and docked draft picks. While some argued that the significance of the deflated balls was overblown, the scandal further fueled suspicions that the NFL was not as above-board as it appeared.

Rigging Doesn’t Involve Everyone

An important point often made by critics like Tuohy and Moldea is that rigging or fixing games doesn't require the involvement of every player, coach, or team owner. In many cases, the manipulation could come from a few key individuals—most notably referees—whose decisions can swing the momentum or outcome of a game. For instance, a single bad call in the final minutes can turn a sure win into a loss, making it seem as though the game was "fixed" without the need for widespread conspiracy.

The question of whether the NFL is rigged is far from settled. While there’s no definitive proof that games are consistently manipulated, there’s enough evidence—from controversial calls to scandals like Deflategate and Spygate—to keep the debate alive. Authors like Brian Tuohy and Dan Moldea, along with the claims of former players like Arian Foster and Larry Johnson, have added fuel to the fire. As fans continue to scrutinize every aspect of the game, it’s likely that this debate will only grow louder in the years to come.
