Pig Sooey

In another embarrassing moment in Arkansas Razorback athletic history, the basketball team hired a coach on Monday, called a press conference to introduce him, had the previous coach get hired to another team the same day which meant they didn't have to pay his remaining contract, and had the new coach renig the very next day. If this isn't a black eye to the program I don't know what is. It was bad enough in the national eye with the Nolan Richardson situation, but this sullies an already bad situation. It makes you wonder who is to blame for all the woes in Fayetteville, the coaches or the administration. Now the question remains who would be dumb enough to come into a circus of a situation like that next. Only time will tell.

Reality

A couple of days ago, Anna Nicole's "companion" dropped his petition to keep DNA results about her baby secret. To me, his petition only confirmed that he doubts the baby is his as many people has said before. As a fan of the woman I would like for the baby to be his because I don't think he would take too much advantage of the situation, unlike the other guy Larry Burkhead. But in Burkhead's defense, how many people go have sex with multimillionaires and don't expect anything in return. Basically he knows that if the baby is his, he stands to gain millions from the bank account that the baby won't be able to enjoy for years. Must be nice to be a couple of months old and know that you're set for life.

Big Loss?

Last week, I tuned in to a Los Angeles Laker game and as always they showed the celebrity fans that showed up and I saw a wig bearing Britney Spears. This made me think of the big uproar that arose after her break from Justin Timberlake. The talked about the fact that he was so hurt but if you look at the events from her life over the past three years or so, was it a big loss really? She got married twice, divorced twice, had two kids, shaved her head, showed her privates on numerous occasions, had addictions that sent her to rehab, etc. On the otherhand, Justin kicked it with numerous fine ass celebrity women and did his thing. So nowadays, who do you think is really crying a river over their split?

Unappropriate

Today, they released yet another statement about Anna Nicole Smith. This one to me hit below the belt and I mean literally. The reports talked about how during the autopsy they remarked about how she had cantelope sized implants. Well duh. Then they went on to say on national television about how she had an imaculate anus. Who in the hell examines breasts implants and anuses during an autopsy that is supposed to be centered around an autopsy. To me it seems that some sick individual got a cheap ejuculation at a dead woman's expense. Sick world we live in huh.

Bonehead?

Last week, the owner of the New York Yankees George Steinbrenner's daughter got divorced. The crazy thing about it is that he has been saying that when he steps down that his son in law would take over the team. So that means to me that this guy gave up millions upon millions of dollars for what? What problem between them was that serious to where he couldn't stick it out to become the head of one of the most storied sports franchises in the world. Years from now when he is old there is no doubt that this will haunt him to his grave. I understand that they say that money can't solve all problems but damn. To "The Boss" if your lil' girl needs a replacement, tell her to give me a call.

Oh, George

President Bush is at it again I see. He is threatening to veto any bill that will put a timeline on pulling troops from overseas. Why? Well basically I see it as that he knows he made his bed so now he knows that he has to lie in it. He has less than two years left in office and he knows that it's a mess over there but he has to stand behind his mess which I had to admit but takes a lot of balls. Maybe most may say that he is being hard-headed, maybe they are right, but I don't see why the President is so adiment on making the next guy's job that much harder. Whoever the next President is will not only have to worry about their own term but trying to clean up the mistakes of the previous "regime" also, which isn't fair. My opinion is know when you're licked just like we had to do with Vietnam and know when to cut your losses and bow out semi-gracefully. We have already made fools out of ourselves over there to the rest of the world so the smart thing to do is try to start regaining some prestige. Hey, I guess my views are why I vote Democrat. God be with Bush and whoever has the tough job of cleaning up after him.

Racist?

A couple of weeks ago I remarked on the racist implications of the name NAACP but there is another race that has problems and they are the Native Americans. Now for years they have been protesting the fact that sports teams have used a people as a mascot and they are right. How would white people like it if there were the Florida Crackers or how would blacks like it if there were the Chicago Black Hitters? Also I take offense to the fact that they are still referred to as Indians. They aren't. Indians are people that derived from India. Just because Christopher Columbus made the mistake a couple of hundred years ago, why are they still paying for it. Looks like black folks aren't the only ones still needing to fight for civil rights.
