Calling the Buckos Brigade!
Someone has declared war on Chicken Moon and Third Option Media. Youtube user amandalee7747. Evidently she is highly insulted about the Chicken Moon Video Jonestown. And man does this 35 year old woman go off on Malach, and his social status, looks, and weight, even though she has never met me, nor knows what I look like.. Check out the comments in the video, feel free to add you own. Drive the woman mad, or madder than she already is!

Never Give Up.
Malach has just finished reading Never Give Up: My Stroke, My Recovery & My Return to the NFL, By Tedy Bruschi and Michael Holley. Good Book, if you are into inspirational stories, or Tedy and the Patriots; it is a must read.

Now, this is not high literature, it is simply written so even a young reader can read it and get the message, but is was well done, and I flew through the book in like 2 days. In it Bruschi gives his first and only real description of what happened to him 10 days after the 2005 Super Bowl; the stroke he had, how he struggled with it, how it affected him, his marriage, and his possible career. His months of recovery leading up to his surprising return to the NFL in the 2005 - 2006 season. He discusses his early broken home life, his love of the game, and the championship runs.

He even discusses his disappointment in the next two seasons, especially not winning 3 in row. There is a ton on info about strokes, the different type of strokes, and their effect on the stroke sufferer.

Nowadays it is rare for a sports star to provide us with someone to look up to. Bruschi is one of them.

I am Malach and some say love, it is a river that drowns, the tender reed.
