60 days to go
Part III: What's with the media?


Why is it that suddenly it's a news item that sports athletes have fidelity problems? Why? Is this new to anyone? Have you been living under a rock since before Bambino left for New York?

I mean, it's about as shocking to me as- get this- priests abuse children.

Mind you, I'm not saying these aren't serious problems. Especially the priest bit(which makes me all the more happy I wasn't raised christian) but, Dr. J wrote a book about his conquests, if memory serves. It's widely known that Babe Ruth was a notorious womanizer amongst other things. Anyone who's watched a catholic comedian has heard at least one, if not several, clergy molestation jokes.

What's next? The shocking news that the wheels on the bus go round and round? That taffy is delicious? That force equals mass times acceleration? That the sky is blue?

What the hell is going on? Do they honestly think that we, as a public entity, are that stupid?

Tawk amongst yourselves.
