Comparing signal callers from two sports.

Comparing Quarterbacks To Point Guards
Black and Blue review

Steph Curry-Aaron Rodgers

Nobody in their respective leagues is as accurate from deep as these two. Whether it was Curry against OKC or Rodgers against the Lions, they are always seconds away from connecting on a bomb. These two-time MVPs are arguably the best at their positions and almost unstoppable on offense. Few players in all of sports are as exciting as these two when they are on.

Kyrie Irving-Eli Manning

Their legacy will forever be tied to them coming through in the clutch. Both were part of teams given no chance and they each outplayed their league MVP counterparts. Kyrie’s three and Eli’s helmet catch to David Tyree are both plays that will go down as key members for two of the biggest underdogs in sports history.

Russell Westbrook-Cam Newton

You either love him or you hate him with every fiber in you. They are going to dominate you and let you know about it as it happens. They are each the most physically imposing player at their position with the speed, size, and strength to overwhelm their opponents. They are also by far the most flamboyant dressers in each of their leagues with clothing no other athlete would wear. Add that in with their soundbites, and they are must-watch both on and off the field.

Chris Paul-Tom Brady

Both could never pick up a ball again and likely make the discussion for top-five all-time at their position. Likely the two smartest players in the league, they dissect defenses at will and always put their teammates in position to score. The only problem is they act like petulant children when things do not go their way. Yes, they are passionate players and have a burning desire to win but they have also crossed the line on multiple occasions. Both have let their emotions get the best of them and launched assaults on opponents’ groin areas. While they are two of the greatest to ever play sports, many will not miss them when they are retired.

John Wall-Matt Ryan

Both of these individuals are putting up monster numbers this year but are flying under the radar. Ryan will likely win MVP but if his stats and team record were tied to Brady, Rodgers or Russell Wilson he would have it in the bag. John Wall is averaging career highs in multiple categories but fans are indifferent to this. In a league with Westbrook, Curry, Kyrie, and James Harden, fans do not really care for what Wall is achieving.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
