The IF Factor: Questions Answered #121-130

121. If you were on trial and someone you know (who is not a lawyer) had to act as your legal representative, who would you want to defend you?

Shockingly, one of my closest friends is a lawyer. However, since I cannot pick him, I will go with another friend who has the type of personality that can acquire anything and really has an act for being charming and persuasive. 

122. If you could change one of your personality traits, what would it be?

Not being very welcoming in the morning. I'd like to change this trait, and I am working on doing so.

123. If you could adopt one personality trait from someone you know, what would you take, and from whom?

I have a few family members and friends who have the type of personality that is free-spirited. They are able to simply pick up and go. They are adventurous and willing to take these adventures on the whim. Unfortunately, I am too much of an analyzer that takes finances, repercussions, consequences, and any other backlash into consideration. It has it's downfalls as well, but being more spontaneous would be welcomed. 

124. If you could have a romance with any fictional character, who would it be?

This is super weird. After all, wouldn't I be selecting based on the real life woman playing the character? Nah uh. Nope. No way. A married man knows better. Especially one whose wife reads this blog. I'll go with Princess Jasmine from Aladdin. No loop holes there to get me in trouble.

125. If you could have avoided living one year from your past, which year would you like to have eliminated?

I really don't like to erase anything as every moment helps make you the person you currently are. However, if I could have avoided 2004, that would have been great. Yes, not having to experience that Boston Red Sox comeback on my beloved New York Yankees would have been nice to miss.

126. If you could commit one crime without being caught, what crime would you commit?

Another weird question. I wouldn't want to do anything really crazy like murder or assault. That's just insane. I'd go with Grand Theft Auto of a police car. Just to see what it's like to put sirens on and get through traffic.

127. If you could be the parent of one famous person, who would you want it to be?

It would be nice to be the parent of Derek Jeter. Imagine how proud Mr. and Mrs. Jeter must be. But I'll go with being the parent of Mark Zuckerberg. Can you say early retirement?

128. If you could ensure that your children never have one experience that you have had, what would it be?

My high school experience. In going to one of the most dangerous high schools in New York State during my time there, I would hope to have my child have a more enjoyable, rewarding, and safer high school experience than I did.

129. If you could eat one food in any quantity for the rest of your life with no ill effects whatsoever, what food would you choose?

Tacos or chicken wings. I could eat both in high volumes. And with no ill effects, would probably do so.

130. If you had to eliminate one season permanently (spring, summer, autumn, or winter), which would go?

Easy, winter. I hate the winter, the cold weather, and especially snow.

Would You Rather: Questions 121-130

This edition of "Would You Rather" is credited to the NBA Would You Rather NBA Account on Instagram ( See Here ). Adding to the fun, this edition (and possibly future ones) are all NBA basketball questions.  121. Who would you rather have on your favorite NBA team - Giannis Antetokounpo or James Harden?  Seeing how I'm a lifelong suffering Knicks fan, the thought of any of these guys in blue and orange is hard to believe. With that said, I'm taking the Greek Freak for this reason - I enjoy watching him play a bit more. Nothing against Harden who is amazing as well, but at times, the ball sticks and that isn't always fun. Plus, I feel like we haven't yet seen a finished Giannis. 122. Would you rather have Giannis Antetokounpo with no driving ability or James Harden with no Three-Point shooting ability?  This is definitely a weird and unique one, but I'll take Harden. Giannis without his strength doesn't offer much. However, if Harden's d...

Dome Pondering Movie Review: In a Relationship (2018)

What is it about?  Following the progression of two couples over the course of a summer.  Who is in it? Emma Roberts - Hallie Michael Ambrano - Owen Dree Hemingway - Willa Patrick Gibson - Matt Favorite Scene:  [Spoiler Alert] Matt and Villa sit on the stairs, and he admits to not wanting to introduce Willa to his parents.  Favorite Quote:  I don't... I don't think you ever find someone... you don't resent. And that's part of it. It's just... find the person you *want* to resent, you know. Review:  This was a weird film. The opener had much promise, but as the film continued, it felt like it was just getting longer.  My biggest gripe with the film is that I liked each of the characters less as I got to know them. I understand that the film attempted to highlight the modern relationship for a specific generation, and in certain ways, it succeeded in doing so. However, the characters never grew or became better people from their relationships...they just...

Thoughts on TNA on AMC Debut: "Yup, TNA is back. It is so back."

TNA is back.  And I know that because it is heavily under scrutiny by the internet. But that criticism comes with being back on a major platform like the AMC Network, and of course, taking the next step after a super successful 2025.  So, what did I think?  The show was...ummmm okay, at best. Some of the challenges the company faced heading into this weekend were well documented among the rumor mill, which didn't bode well for the company. In balancing reported visa issues with talent, pivoting after losing core talent to free agency, and attempting to build and manage talent workload with a premium live event on Saturday, TNA found themselves in the usual TNA stuff. The most peculiar - and strangest - of situations to be in going into a big network premiere. This company, man! All in all, again, the show was okay. It had its flaws. It had some cool moments. It didn't live up to the hype (or the expectations we each had for such a premiere). But it's one show. TNA has put...
