Microsoft to puchase Skype

One of the biggest and well know companies in the world Microsoft is on the move of buying the Internet Phone Service Skype for $8.5 billion. Microsoft's move is to tackle and put high standard in there competence with other big companies like Google Inc. Microsoft is know worldwide as one of the biggest software producers in line with Apple. And now they are planning to purchase skype.

To be honest I really like and admire skype especially on there services. There is no other online or call services that are clearer and much high quality compared to skype. Yahoo Messenger, ICQ, MSN are among it's rivals. But it's like I rate them all with 2 and I rate skype with 5 which shows how skype's standard's are really good.

Good, Clear and clarity voices when calling are some of the best highlights and services you can avail. Based on my experience non of those rivals and competitors could even match skype's great services. Clear sounds when talking and great up time when calling.

I even uninstalled my Yahoo Messenger and MSN applications because skype was so reliable. When you compare skype and Yahoo Messenger for sure you will get annoyed and irretated of the Yahoo Messenger services. Delayed and not so clear sounds. The video streaming is sometimes blurry and lag. All those features that will make you lose your hair are there.

But if you use skype then for sure you show your thumbs up. A lot of people are using skype because of there free high standard services. Some father or Mother tend to appreciate this services in communicating with there love ones that are far away.

What could be the future of skype when they are under Microsoft would there services be changed? Instead of free services Microsoft would turn skype in to a retail use were you will pay if you use there services. Since we all know now that Microsoft is capable of selling there software's now especially there operating system. Not like before when they were all for free.

Will there quality of services will not be the same as now like video and sound clarity?

This are just some common questions that triggered in my mind. As to what I am guessing and predicting. I hope skype will remain for free and there services would be much better.

Mavericks Sweep Lakers - Disgraced there coach

The Dallas Mavericks advantage to the 3rd round(Conference Finals) of the Nba Playoffs as they sweep and defeated the defending champions Los Angeles Lakers 4-0 standing. Lead by there superstar Dirk Nowitzki the Dallas came out strong and prepared for the game. As Dirk Nowitzki get's help from his teammates who were also lock and loaded for the game. As Jason Terry and Peja Stojakovic were mad from the three point area. Hitting from all angles and all areas beyond the arc. Tyson Chandler was also a beast in the paint area as Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol were meant nothing.

Jason Terry was sizzling hot from the start of the game to the end. As Terry registered a playoff record of 9/10 three point shots. Terry only missed one three point attempt but someone kept shooting three point shots till the game ends. Same goes with his team mate Peja Stojakovic who was perfect from the three point area. Peja Stojakovic made 6/6 three point shots who did not missed and still manage to shot three point shots until the last minute of the game. Dirk Nowitzki also added some three point shots and J.J. Barrea. The total three point attempts of the Mavericks was stunning 23 three point shots were made.

The Lakers were no were to be found as the deficit of the game were getting huge. And game would wrapped up to 122-86 in favor of the Dallas Mavericks.

Phil Jackson Disgraced

This might be the last playoff or even the last game that Phil Jackson will coach his Lakers team. And this last game was such a disgrace for him. At the last minute of the game as temper and frustrations were filling the team members of the Lakers. As if they were playing like no sportsmanship and not like champions. Ron Artest had a fast break situation but blow the layup and missed it. And as they gamble the ball with Tyson Chandler Artest committed a obvious foul.

When Lamar Odom was throws an elbow to Dirk Nowitzki and was automatically ejected in the game. And When J.J. Barea was driving into the basket and Andrew Bynum hits Barea with a flagrant foul and was also ejected from the game. Barea was on the air when Bynum hit him hard with his elbow and Barea fell down hard on the wood. If you could just imagine how small Barea compared to Andrew Bynum. That's a point guard against a center whose size is triple compared to a point guard.

It was a bad intention and move for Bynum and Odom. We all know they were frustrated but for the sake of the game and some manner's they should act like professionals. Both Bynum and Odom left the game because they were ejected and all Phil Jackson can do was bow down and shake his head.

At least the Lakers could have showed some poise and respect to the other team. Not putting something or making something worse for others. I was really mad and disappointed on what Odom and Bynum just did. They could have just accept defeat and take responsibilities as a losing team.

This is how they show there coach what are there true colors? They could have just finished the game nice and easy and tribute this game to Phil Jackson even if they lost. I don't see something wrong if that's what they did. And all they did was put there coach into shame and disgraced phil Jackson. For after all what Jackson did to the team from the 3 peat championship to the back to back championship on 2010-2011 season.

Manny Pacquiao wins over Shane Mosley (Boring Fight)

The pound for pound king Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao wins via unanimous decision over the challenger Shane "Sugar" Mosley. As Pacquiao's winning streak continues to 14 straight wins and he retained WBO Welterweight World Title.

In the first round both boxers look and wait for chances and mistakes there opponent might do. Waiting for slow and wrong punches then counter punch them. As both fighters trying to feel each others aura and defense at the same time looking for openings to unleash there will of a knockout.

On the second round as both fighters collide once again. Pacquiao showed some aggressive moves while Mosley started to do his thing. Mosley was throwing power shots that somehow find it's path even if Pacquiao is defending himself. And Pacquiao would also love to trade punches and combo's to Mosley as the round continues. And Pacquiao would also land some huge body shots to Mosley.

But on the third round Manny Pacquiao unleashed two powerful punches that sent Shane Mosley to the canvas. Mosley got rocked and the referee was starting to count Shane Mosley. Seeing Mosley's face was like he could not believe what he got and was clueless what hit him. He was lying on the floor and trying to feel and struggling to get up. But Mosley Managed to get up before the 10Th count that the referee was counting. As soon as Mosley got up Pacquiao started to massacre Mosley leaving him running and avoiding the punches that Pacquiao is throwing. Mosley would also try to hold Pacquiao just to survive the last minute and seconds in the melting clock.

But on the late rounds Mosley would just use the ring in running and avoiding Pacquiao. When it was just a run and chase fight after that third round knockout Mosley suffered. Somehow Mosley's game plan in order to survive and reach 12th round was to avoid, hug and if a chance for a counter punch is available he would take it. But there will be just some instance that Mosley is being punished because of the combo's and quick punches that Pacquiao releases. Mosley could not predict those punches and end up being hit and stab in front of him.

In round 10 Kenny Bayless the referee in charge of the fight called a controversial knockout as Pacquiao slept int he floor. Pacquiao stood up and he was shocked why the referee was counting him but all he could do was smile and laugh as he wait for the count to be over. But on the end of the fight it was clear that Pacquiao was not being knocked down instead he slept and was pushed by Shane Mosley. And Kenny Bayless would asked his apologize for counting it as a knockdown.

MY REACTION TO THE FIGHT

The fight was quite good in the start of the round were in both fighters were so excited to face each other. But after that 3rd round TKO that Mosley received. The fight did not went into distance and also age matter's start to take place on the late rounds. Mosley was like melting the clock inside the ring with running and avoiding punches.

Pacquiao would find himself tired and exhausted in chasing and trying to corner Mosley. But it all went to round 12 with just a boring sport to watch. I admire Shane Mosley for answering the call and challenge on the sport that he is active at the moment. He was trying to defy his age and took the challenge. Not like Floyd Mayweather Jr. who is full of excuses and random issues to avoid the fight. And for the fans this is what we get and this is what we watch if some athlete's who are still capable and on there prime years refusing to the challenge. Athlete's who don't care about the sport and the fans that appreciated them. Pacquiao's next opponent should be Sergio Martinez or Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Manny Pacquiao and Shane Mosley weighing

Over 6,000 witnessed the weighing of the upcoming and one of the biggest events of boxing the Manny Pacquiao vs Shane Mosley. Manny Pacquiao lands on 145 pounds while Shane Mosley hits the scale at 147 pounds. Shane Mosley 39 years old looked ripped and ready for his fight.
My Prediction of the fight:

We all know how both fighters are capable of doing in the ring. Both are explosive because of there ability to ignite a powerful punch that they can unleash anytime. And a single mistake of both fighters could lead to an instant knockout. Pacquiao's age would be his advantage over the elder Mosley. Pacquiao is 32 while Mosley is 39 but they all train hard in preparation of there bout.

Pacquiao's speed will also be another advantage since they both have their power punches as there assets. While Shane Mosley's experience would be his advantage for he is more experience compared to Pacquiao.

Mosley's size and height would also be his key in winning this fight for he is taller and bigger compared to the pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao.

In the first 4 rounds both fighters would examine there enemies and start to feel the punches. But as soon as the the round continues Pacquiao can seemingly use his speed and stamina to out lead Mosley. And Pacquiao can wear out Mosley in the late rounds like 8-10 rounds and expect a Knockout of the exhausted Mosley.

The reigning and defending pound for pound king in UFC George "Rush" St. Pierre successfully defends his title over his top challenger Jake Shields. The fight showed that St. Pierre was as vulnerable as any body inside the octagon. As Jake Shields wounded the face of the welterweight champion. It was a 5 round title fight and both fighters came to win at there will and determination. In the first round St. Pierre connects with accurate shots that made Jake Shields confused were those shots were coming from. But on the second round Jake Shields tries to connect with his own accurate jabs and punches. Some how landed and find it's way to hurt the champion St. Pierre.

Now that St. Pierre had his left eye swollen and on the later rounds his nose would bleed and blood will come out. It's a matter of survival for the champion on how he will survive and defend his title. But on the later rounds St. Pierre remained focus even on a left blurry eye vision he still kept his phase and composure. And somehow find his rhythm and combo to hurt Jake Shields that cause a wounded and swollen right eye of the challenger.

St. Pierre would also connect on head kicks that landed on shields making him crawl on the canvass. But would get up and use the octagon to recover from the absorb hits that St. Pierre made. As the fight comes to and end St. Pierre would survive the fight and would retain his title as the welterweight champion.

And on the interview he explained that he did not expect that Jake Shields striking would be so accurate and precise. And his bloody left eye would give me problems in seeing the attacks of his enemies. And somehow he was not impress on how he was performing inside the octagon for he was looking to finish the fight with a TKO or a submission.
