Day 119

Fresh Start_119: Ladies and Gentlemen I have an announcement
In the season of giving I’d like to give back some eyeballs to the people that I believe deserve it. A little disclaimer before I start: I am not being paid by anyone of one these people that I am about to talk about, this is shut a small shout out to you guys! Being a small YouTuber it is tough trying to gain subscribers and keep a community together when you are starting out, it’s identical to how tough it is to gain traction on this blog. Anyway, being on the site and creating content for the site, you see people that are doing well that need some recognition for how well they are doing. Some may not want the recognition and would just like to keep on grinding and putting out content, but I want to just take some time to recognize a few people.

The first one I would like to recognize is Philip Defranco. Now Philly D should need no recognition due to the fact that he is one of the biggest and longest running YouTubers on the platform with almost 5 million subscribers, but he has had an incredible year gaining in subscribers and also winning Show of the Year at the Streamy’s. Defranco does a daily news show on YouTube and has one of the most interesting communities on the site. The questions and discussions in the comment section of his videos is just refreshing to see and a joy to chime in on. I strongly recommend you checking some of his content out. Keep up your amazing work and go kill 2017!

The next person I would like to shout out is another YouTuber and that is Justin Escalona. Escalona is a daily vlogger on YouTube and he has been absolutely killing it in 2016. He is a college student at USC and he also has a really awesome clothing line called 1340. I have bought a few of his designs and I am very happy with the product. Escalona only has about 250,000 subscribers on YouTube but he deserves way more for the effort and production value that he puts into his videos. Justin, keep up going after it day and day out, the results will be there—also go kill 2017.

The last YouTuber that I would like to shout out is another daily vlogger and he is probably the most famous one at that, Casey Neistat. Neistat has absolutely exploded in 2016 with his vlog channel and become one of the most popular faces in the YouTube space and film making in general. He has since stop making daily vlogs, but he still makes videos and they are just as good if not better than some of the stuff he has made in the past. If you are between shows on Winter break or you get bored at any point in time, go check out his daily vlogs or just his YouTube channel in general, it is probably the best cinematography on YouTube (I am not kidding). I know you will continue to do incredible things in 2017 and best of luck in your new business venture.

Next up on the list is Entrepreneur, Best Selling Author, YouTube star, All-Star motivator, and avid Jets fan Gary Vaynerchuk. Gary Vee probably has the most influential YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter communities I have ever seen and it is such an amazing community of people. The energy and the vibe that he creates is unlike any other, and he is one of the people that drives me to just grind, hustle, and do my best every day. I want to be the one that interviews him when he finally achieves his dream as the owner of the Jets. If you need a pick me up go check out his content, it is absolutely phenomenal. I don’t even have to say it because I am 110% certain that Gary Vee will be crushing 2017, keep it up, thank you, and Let’s go Jets!

Finally, I would like to thank my family and friends, I do all of this for you guys. You guys are my backbone and I couldn’t do any of this without you guys. Thank you so much I couldn’t write enough to show my gratitude. Mom, Dad thanks for all that you do it means the world. Granny you are such an inspiration and hopefully the Jets will field a better team soon. Vinny and Thomas you guys are the best brothers I could ask for, don’t follow my example I left for you guys in high school, and I hope one day I can write articles about your successes and interview you guys. Fi, I love you—you literally the greatest (enough said). Nick, my partner in crime you are the man thanks for embarking with me on this YouTube grind couldn’t think of a better guy to do it with. So yeah, even though that last part was a possible Acknowledgement section of a book, please go check out all the people I have mentioned in this article.

2024 MLB Preview

  Opening Day is about 24 hours away and the Shohei Ohtani gambling story has stole all the headlines and fleeting moments of baseball conversation over the past few days, many have now forgotten about the exciting marathon ahead of us! Even with the ever-evolving Ohtani story clouding the beginning of the Los Angeles Dodgers season, that doesn’t change the fact that L.A. is still the team to beat in baseball. The Dodgers have put their chips at the center of the table, no pun intended, for 2024 to show they can raise another World Series trophy after sending upwards of a billion dollars in free agency. In division however, the surprise Arizona Diamondbacks are capitalizing on their newfound championship window with a fantastic offseason that will have them in the mix to get back to a second straight fall classic. The San Diego Padres are done shopping for superstars, sort of, following a massively disappointing season that saw them move on from one of the games generational talent...

Dan Hurley Saved College Basketball

When you think of Men’s College Basketball, the names of Wooden, Dean, Krzyzewski, Williams, Thompson, and Calipari shoot to mind right away. All the memories of the great teams from UCLA, Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, the Big East, UNLV, and even the Fab Five start to rush back. Nostalgia of a time when the sport meant something different. For all those longing for the days when great teams didn’t dissipate into the transfer portal after one disappointing year—Dan Hurley and the Connecticut Huskies are here to save the day! UConn has done something that only seven other programs have done in the history of college basketball, repeat as champions. Forget all the talk about “best team of all-time,” even though if you look at point differential (like it truly matters), this UConn team is the best team to ever play in the NCAA Tournament. This team means much more to the game of college basketball than that. Coach Hurley has given college basketball what it has been missing since the in...

Last Year the Season was one game long, it's different this year

  It took 363 days, but Jets fans finally got the debut from Aaron Rodgers they waited for. This time around that debut ended in a blowout loss on the road to the San Francisco 49’ers. Last year the Jets won the battle but lost the war following their overtime walk-off win against the Buffalo Bills. This year, the Jets hope they lost the battle but because they have Rodgers they will win the war.   Of all the ways the game could have gone last night, having the Jets defense get thoroughly dominated on the ground by a third year running back, Jordan Mason, who wasn’t a household name until last night, wasn’t on the bingo card. The trademark for Robert Saleh has been his defense. That’s what got him hired from San Francisco. The defense is what Jet fans have pointed to as a reason for optimism heading into this year with Rodgers. The defense was finally supposed to get the complimentary football they have been dying for since Robert Saleh walked in the doors at Florham Park...
