Talking Heads

Yes, I am speaking of the media in general and the sports media in particular. It is indeed unfortunate that in all the talking heads on TV, radio and print, there is not a single, solitary brain. Let me explain to you what sports is not.
1. It is not eating contests. Those belong on the food channel.
2. It is not spelling bees. They're cute. They're smart. But they ain't sports The education channel should be their home.
3. It is not 'fantasy' games. Fantasy games should be on the game show channel or maybe the Disney channel.
4. It is not interviews with actors.

The media does provide some amusement as they try to peddle, women's sports, soccer and hockey to the populace. These things are sports but hold no interest for 90% of the American sports viewers. The media is, however, persistent. They've been trying to choke us with this pap for thirty years.

The media loves to destroy our views of boxing by giving us under-the-ring rope shots at critical moments. 'Pocket cam" shots in pool tournaments. Ground level shots at football games. And then there is the constant, inane yammering of announcers who delight in making truly stupid remarks and asking unbelievably dumb questions. They also allow those annoying 'nags' onto our screens during games. I know they are greedy, but really! They have a tendency to make a huge deal out of minor mistakes and comments made by the real athletes and their staffs. Latest example: Lebron didn't shake hands with they enemy after losing the series. So what? Did that deserve the week's worth of crap and controversy that the media invented? All in all, the media are a bunch of thin skinned morons who can't find real sports stories and so have to invent them. If I were a media mogul. I'd fire myself!

Incompetent

That, I think, is the word that best describes this entire administration. The wretch and his henchmen are quickly dismantling the finest country the world has ever seen. So far, he has dumped so much debt on us that our grand children's grandchildren will still be paying on it. Stimulus my ass! I saw a sign on the web the other day that said, "Stimulus means foreplay and we all know what comes next." Some of the smarter democrats (if there is such a thing as a smart democrat) are jumping off his bandwagon hundreds at a time. This idiot is trying to install a national police force to operate within our borders. We now require "Approved travel documents" to move about. The anti gun crowd is thirsting for our blood. Several states are seriously considering secession. The entire nation is ready to collapse and all because the liberals just had to have "change." Taxes will rise sharpley in the coming years to pay for the insane policies of this idiot. Since unemployment is skyrocketing, that'll leave fewer and fewer tax payers to shoulder the burden. He has tied the hands of the CIA so now his Muslim buddies won't be compelled to tell us anything. He is allowing a couple of million of his Hamas brothers to come to this country. That should be loads of fun. His military policies intensely suck, so we'll be disarmed soon. Incidentaly, the military hate him. This entire communist movement makes me so damned mad. Every conservative in this country should rise up and give him and his super liberal pals the finger. Then we should fight tooth and nail for the country we love. To all those smart aleck assholes who told me how great he was gonna be, HOW DO YOU LIKE HIM NOW? By this time next year you won't be able to find a single moron who will admit they voted for him. We are on the brink of disaster, troops. This sucks!!!
