Bittersweet: Reflecting on the Chargers being on Hard Knocks

With summer all around us, one of my favorite highlights of the season is the new season of HBO’s Hard Knocks. This series details the training camp regimen and story around a new team each year and is a staple of any football fan’s preseason diet as they get ready for another year of the NFL. Though this year will obviously be different with the introduction of COVID-19 throwing everyone in the world for a loop, it also features my favorite team: the San Diego, I mean Los Angeles Chargers. Though I wish I could have seen Hard Knocks with the Chargers still in the 619, it will be awesome to finally see my team in one of the most well-produced annual sports series. 


Over the years, the cameras have covered everyone from the Dallas Cowboys to the Baltimore Ravens and have produced a plethora of awesome moments. My personal favorite has been the Atlanta Falcons season and legendary defensive line coach, Bryan Cox reeling off one one-liner after another. Moreover, watching Texans defensive end J.J. Watt workout to Fort Minor is another series highlight for the rather unintended sight of Watt being his uber serious self. So with this video I wanted to talk about my favorite storylines to look forward to this season regarding the Bolts and how the series might help their chances this year, if there is a season. 

Top 3 things to look for:

  1. New Quarterback
  2. Secondary expectations
  3. Transition to new stadium

Shoe Stories: My Favorite Sneakers of All-time

For my first video I wanted to share with you my top four favorite sneakers that I own and also delve into their resales values along with the history of the shoes. For this rundown, I will primarily going over Air Jordan’s, with some new flavors mixed in a little bit. For me, the 90’s and the era around it were a special time, but I was not of age to appreciate the entire culture for what it was. That being said, there is a ton of nostalgia tied into these shoes along with some new feelings for the modern selections. You will probably recognize the selections in this video as they are some all-time classics. I also wanted to explore some of the retail values of these sneakers as well.


While I do love collecting shoes and the stories behind them, I also feel firmly that sneakers or a material possession are not the end-all, be-all, but rather how you feel in that moment in time and how it can have a bigger impact on your life. That has been my connection with shoes and I wanted to share it with you in this video. With collecting shoes, I also feel like it is a way to connect to a different moment in time along with being able to learn more about a hobby that can lead to some monetary gains. This was a fun list to put together and would love to hear your thoughts on some of your favorites as well!
