It's been a long time...

There are a couple of reasons I haven't written lately. 1. There's nothing to write about. and 2. I have been real busy. Neither is a good reason, I should be able to find some time a couple of times a week to write some magic.

Anyhow. The Celtics won the NBA title this year. First, I really don't care. I'm just happy that I'm not going to have to deal with Stephen A. Smith on SportsCenter yelling at me. So that's good. Second, if I remember correctly, the Celtics sucked last year and Danny Ainge traded a couple of scrubs for Kevin Garnett and look what happened. Maybe Danny Ferry should take some lessons.

As an aside, I was at Tower City at the CD place when I was in High School checking out some CD's and looked up to my left and there was that tall ass Danny Ferry standing next to me. That was pretty cool. He could have been such a great pro. I think he's done a great job with the Cavs so far. Give him a couple more years and I think he's going to bring a championship to Cleveland. Or at least another finals appearance. Injuries decimated the Cavs this year and I don't think people played up to their billing....

Whoa??? Did that just happen??? I blacked out for a minute..

Moving on. Joe Tiller is getting rid of all the fat on the Boilermaker football team. I can't find the email, but he booted another WR off the team a couple of weeks ago, maybe a month or so. He was caught stealing rubbers from a local supermarket. Couple of things. He could have been stealing much worse. It's still a little embarrassing buying those things. And to add insult to injury, the judge he had to stand before was Les Meade. I had this guy as a Business Law professor at Purdue. He was probably the best professor I had at Purdue. He enjoyed what he did there, it showed. He enjoyed teaching. He was very memorable! I probably remember 3 professors at Purdue, and he's the only one that I remember for the right reasons. Great class! I still tell people that play the lotto that they're just paying "taxes for idiots."

Purdue football has to get their shit on straight this year. It's Tiller's last year, he's turned the program around, and then turned the program around again. I know they're probably never going to be a Michigan or Ohio State or Penn State, but they need to be in the top half of the Big 10 each year. And they've been struggling to be that for the last couple of years. Let's hope his booting off the a-holes will shape the rest of the guys up, just like Painter did.

I'm not even going to talk about the last couple of Tila Tequila's and Real World's. I've never seen anything like either of them. I can't even put into words what's happened to MTV.

And that's about it. Hopefully it won't be a week and a half to the next entry...

Mindy McCready???? What's Next???

So good ole' Roger Clemens is back again lying about anything and everything he possibly can. Now, it's an affair with ex-country star Mindy McCready. What can he possibly lie about next?? First the juice, then being at a Jose Canseco party, then the entire congressional hearing happened, and now he's lying about having a 10 year affair?

And you know you can absolutely not make this stuff up. I always compare things like this to Apollo 13. Great movie. Very emotional. Do they make it back? Do they skip off the earth's atmosphere and get lost in space forever? The only way this is a good movie is the fact that it's true. If it was made up in some struggling writers' mind, it would be a horribly unbelievable tale in which they all make it back safe in the end.

This can't possibly be made up. Everybody who was mentioned in the Mitchell Report has basically come clean. They've all admitted that "...yes, I did in fact, get caught cheating..." on some level or another. Throwing this on top of Clemens' denial, throwing his wife under the bus, and now finding out that he's been cheating on her for at least a decade, and again lying about it, is simply amazing.

And another reason why this story has to be true? Mindy Freaking McCready is telling the NY press that, "...Yes, I did in fact have an affair with Roger for the better part of 10 years..." So, I'm thinking, just like everybody else, who has some sort of brain capacity, that he's guilty as guilty gets. Not only in this, but everything else he's accused of. At this point, people could start making shit up about him and everybody is going to believe it.

And the funny part, not really, funny ha-ha, but more, funny sad, is that McCready was apparently addicted to Oxycontin, arrested, put on probation, found guilty of violating her probation, and found not guilty of a drunk driving arrest. Nice work Roger, I'm going to throw out there that you probably ruined this girls' life in the process too. Good people. And at this point if he comes out and says that he didn't get her the Oxy, who would believe him? Not me.

I wonder how that congresswoman feels now that asked him what uniform he's going to wear into the Hall Of Fame? Idiots...

And on a similar note, I caught an episode of A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila tonight. First of all, the people that are trying to win are just out of their mind. Right up there with the girls that are on the Bret Michaels show, probably worse. Secondly, why do these people really want to be with this Tila Tequila. Her only claim to fame is this horrible MTV show and some myspace/YouTube videos. Just doesn't make sense in my head?? And lastly, one of the "contestants" is a high school football coach. He's on the show acting like a complete, drunken, jackass. I have a feeling that the school he works at is going to have a few words for him after this show is over. Probably along with his coaching career.

Anyhow, that's about it for tonight. HBO is finally showing some reruns of The Soprano's. This makes me forget all about Tila.
