Terrell Owens + Tampa = Why?

January 9, 2006 at 11:05 am | In Sports | Leave a Comment

I don’t get it.  Well, I do get it. It is all about the dolla bills y’all. T.O.? Sure, why not. He will single handedly destroy a team’s morale in fewer than 5 weeks. But, hey.  Maybe he can get us to a Superbowl, or better yet, get us more publicity than an e on the end of “potato” (don’t get the reference, read more).  I guess I am becoming more and more desensitized to the world of human greed.  I played organized sports for most of my life and I know only a handful of people that would want T.O. on their team. These are the same people that make everything a competition. They are the worst of the worst in my book and have some serious issues that they need to work out.  Grudin…I like that guy.  I just don’t really know what to make of all of this T.O./Tampa talk. I hope it is just that…talk.

Pat Robertson is on Crack

January 6, 2006 at 5:32 pm | In Commentary, News | Leave a Comment

How do people like this get on television?  Worse yet, how is that that anyone listens to him? People who make statements like Pat Robertson has in recent months scare the heck out of me. I think we need to bring back a little bit of the old west in this country. What does that mean? Well, the way I see it, if you want to give someone the finger when you are in your car, and they happen to give you a black eye. Then that should be within your rights to do so…or theirs.  People in this country are being held to a lower standard of accountability every day.  Martha Stewart gets thrown in jail for some ticky-tack charge (the amount of money she made on that “insider trade” relative to her wealth makes me laugh out loud), while CEOs and executive officers of major corporations are allowed to lie to shareholders, pocket once-in-a-lifetime fortunes, and live the good life.  Time to take the country back from the radical fringes that have seized the opportunity left by the apathy of the masses.
