Explaining the Blog, Name


Explaining the Blog: 

This is my typical view on the world.
Anybody who knows me knows that I’m full of opinions. I pretty much have an opinion on everything and if there’s something that I don’t have an opinion on than odds are it doesn’t matter to me. Those people also know that I love to share my opinion, which is something that I feel gains me respect from people and bothers them at the same time, depending on my side/take on it. 

I have multiple websites and blogs already were I can spout my opinions and point of views on both entertainment topics (The Word) and sports (Basement Sports & Sports Say), which are the two most important things to me. However, I don’t really have a place to say what I want about non-entertainment or non-sports related things. Basically I’ve just been giving my opinion on things that don’t pertain to those two topics on either Facebook statuses or Tweets (or usually both at the same time). That obviously doesn’t give me a whole lot of space to expand on some of the things that I want to say. This blog is where I hope to bring those opinions, point of views and thoughts out and I hope that it will give people I know something to not only read, enjoy and ponder on, but also debate on. There’s nothing better in my opinion than a good, smart debate on important topics.

I will go ahead and warn everybody from the beginning of this blog. There will be times where you will agree with me on certain topics, but there are also going to be times when you completely disagree with everything that have to say on other topics. I can guarantee this, as I’ve never known anybody who’s agreed with every single opinion or thought that I have. If they did, it wouldn’t be quite as fun or interesting. This blog is often going to be cynical, sarcastic, humorous, serious, offensive, angry and depressing, sometimes all at the same time. This will perhaps be my most dangerous blog yet, so reader beware and please don’t feel too afraid to respond if something piques your interest. 

*Writer's Note* While I hope to write as frequently as I can in this blog (whenever important topics arise),. it is admittedly my least priority after my websites, sports podcast, working 40 hours a week and living life in general. 

Explaining the Name:

When I thought about creating this blog I wanted to call it “My 2 Cents.” Unsurprisingly, the name was already taken in the numeral form, as well as “My Two Cents.” I then tried “My Two (and 2) Sense,” which I thought would have been quite fitting, as well, but that was also previously taken. Basically the only thing I could come up with that wasn’t already used was “My Final 2 Cents,” which either 1) sounds like I’m completely broke (which probably isn’t too far from the truth) or 2) sounds like some sort of creepy suicide blog where I’m finally getting everything off of my chest before I end it all (which may not be too far from the truth)
