    News American Adventure Refurb, New Projectors and Ending Video

    I got to see a video of it, and for the most part I like the video. I always liked the montage at the end, as it fills in the years from WWII to the present, but also pays tribute to the arts, which I feel is always ignored or glossed over in history. The show is narrated by a politician (Ben...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    This is where I have difficulties, and this is probably my last post on the subject. Alabama won the national championship game, congrats to them, and they can call themselves the champs. Many talk about the 1st class recruits a team has, or the strength of schedules and all of that, but that...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    Well, congrats to Alabama. Though I didn't agree with why they were chosen, they won the game that crowns the title. They should celebrate that, and Georgia can also celebrate being the SEC champion. Both get huge paydays, but I do feel for the Georgia players, but am releieved the kicker for...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    I think that's my problem, and it's a problem college football will have as long as they are trying to orchestrate the national championship. That is, Alabama was "chosen." Did they do anything at all during the regular season to deserve it? Whether UCF is an inferior schedule or not, they went...

    All talking aside, I do hope the Alabama player that just collapsed along the sideline is okay. Football is a game, nothing more. It's not that important.

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    Bama did beat Clemson, and I gave them props for that, but that was after they were selected for the College Playoff, not before. My arguement was their selection. I said they looked like THE Alabama Crimson Tide against Clemson. That to me was one of, if not the first time all season. As for...

    That we can agree on. I don't despise any team, especially since they're all college students. But Bama this year to me wasn't impressive. There are years they are. To me Alabama only really looked like Alabama, against Clemson. Everything else has been pedestrian, in my humble opinion, and...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    UCF was 4-0 against AP and USA polled teams, where as Alabama was 3-1. Meaning both teams played 4 games against top 25 teams, and UCF was undefeated, Bama wasn't. Yet all anyone says is UCF needs to play someone on their schedules, giving Bama a pass. When Alabama was put into the playoff they...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    Based on what they did in the regular season, was what I was referring to there, but upsets happen. I would assume every year that Alabama would defeat UCF, but this year Alabama wasn't all that impressive during the regular season, and lost to a team UCF defeated in their bowl game. UCF also...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    The rest of the country has to come to terms with the concept that UCF won all their games, including one game against the team that has a victory over both Georgia and Alabama. Undefeated is supposed to mean something, but in college football it does not, because of the Country club like...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    Perhaps my last post was hard to follow. What I was trying to say though, was that if your team performs against another directly, you now have a pretty good understanding of the positives and negatives both teams bring to the field. For example, if two teams are reasonably evenly matched, who...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    Though I have no issue with Georgia being in the National Championship game, beating a team you play a second time is easier then playing them once. The second time you've had a chance to experience the team first hand and how they play directly against your team. Beating a team twice is...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    UCF also defeated #20 Memphis, twice this season, which are Memphis' only two loses before their bowl loss to Iowa State, who defeated both Oklahoma and TCU. It's very hard to say to a team, be proud, but it really doesn't matter. Alabama didn't even win the SEC, and yet they can decalre...

    News UCF Peach Bowl/National Championship Parade

    Does it? They can hang those banners, but the powers that be will shrug their shoulders and depreciate any accomplishment with "well, they didn't actually play anyone anyways, so it's not all that hard to go undefeated." Even if Alabama had had the same schedule as UCF, no one has any idea if...

    Hope everyone is able to find shelter, and be as comfortable as possible. Just because it's over, be cautious, as some of the wreckage left behind can still be dangerous, so be cautious, and stay safe.

    Bummed about the loss of both of these classic rides. :( Both were not only classic in ride designs, but in the reality that they both were opening day attractions for their parks. I hope somehow the dinosaurs from Energy can be replicated somewhere, and perhaps something to give the Great Movie...
