Why Messi is better than Ronaldo.

   Yeah Yeah, statistically it is hard to make a definitive conclusion. Besides a world cup victory it is understandable to conclude that Christiano Ronaldo can be reasonably considered a better player than Messi. Believe me I am a engaged fan. I always considered Ronaldo the superior of the two, because I have been indoctrinated to value athleticism. However, after investigating further, induced by relevant events; Messi joining Miami FC, 

Despite being intimately aware of Messi’s talent, I truly was ignorant to his greatness. After seeing his first 3 games with Inter Miami, where he scored 5 goals; and then evaluating his world cup performance, I finally adjusted my belief, Messi is better than Ronaldo. Why?

Because Messi compiles his greatness in synergy with the offense. He makes the critical pass, he trusts his teammates, and he effortlessly positions himself to maximize his influence within the flow of the offense. Ronaldo just uses his blunt force talent with no regard to his teammates. 

You cannot argue that Cristiano Renaldo is the better athlete, but Lionel Messi is by far the most aware and balanced soccer player in my life time. There is a certain poetic resonance when mindful talent perseveres beyond physical talent.

What I missed (Jaylen Wright)

Image
During this years voyage of evaluating draft prospects, I was not impressed by any RB, Everyone I evaluated I felt where JAGS, including Wright.  In my notes: Long Strider Fights the ball as a pass catcher Played in 10 personal shotgun basically his whole career in Tennessee. I HATE 10 Personal (5 linemen, 4 Receivers, 1 RB, 1 QB) I thought to myself, "of-course he leads the NCAA in yards per attempt, he is running behind empty boxes ALL THE TIME." I will admit that I am jaded by my love for Achane, but Wright IS NOT Achane! That being said, Achane couldn't be the primary back in a 10 personal offense. That is the variable I ignorantly combed over. .  Although I stand by my evaluation of his inert ability as a pure runner, I have come to realize that to run 10 personal as your primary offense the HB must be able to BLOCK!! Jaylen Wright is an exceptional blocker, best blocking HB I have seen in A LONG TIME. Wright was benefitting from what I call the 'Gronk Equation...

Alfie Dogs Top 10 Prospects 2024.

Image
1.) Jared Verse  Edge Defender Florida State Verse is a relatively inexperienced football player , and that shows up in some pass-rush counters and in tackling, but he brings his elite talent with a hard hat and lunch pail approach to every snap, wins with strength regularly and is built like a hall of famer. I LOVE THIS PLAYER Very powerful player. Speed-to-power move can be devastating. Violent hands. First-step explosiveness is NFL-caliber. Smart with his swim move. He can go to it quickly and instinctively to counter the momentum and direction of a pulling blocker. 2.) Joe Alt Tackle Notre Dame The NFL draft is all about finding players with size, speed and strength who have the IQ to use those traits optimally. That's Joe Alt, and that should spell a top-10 selection as a future long-term tackle. Hands are consistent in their pre-punch placement. Extremely impressive athlete. Great awareness to look for work and block the most pressing defender. Has a finisher’s mentality in t...

The Story of Christi

Image
Christi is a guitar, An Ibanez Ex350 made in South Korea that my father bought me in 1989. Technically Christi is the second guitar I ever owned, but my first guitar was a cheap excuse of a guitar called “Starforce”. My point is that Christi was the first real guitar I had when I actually became a capable guitarist.  One of the most spiritual concepts of learning the discipline of playing guitar is an inert relationship with the instrument. Many may think that the electric guitars quality as an instrument is related to the manufacture. Nothing is further from the truth. The “electronics” of an electric guitar can be easily swapped for premium electronics, what stands out in most guitars is, at the risk of sounding ridiculous, the soul of the wood.  I have played 200$ guitars that were far superior in just being blessed by that inert quality, than 3000$ guitars. Christi had that inert quality. I have owned more than 20 guitars in my life, and I have played thousands, yet it too...
