Ad says women wearing sweatpants will send men running... eh, no...

An online retailer, Piperlime, which is owned by GAP, released an ad which reads, "Every time you wear sweatpants in public, a single guy leaves New York."



The author of this article written by Emma Gray, said she took an unofficial poll on if the ad were in any way accurate. She asked many males about women in sweatpants and she said the majority of responses went something like this - "Um ... I'm pretty sure I find girls in sweatpants attractive" and "Is that for real?"

Don't worry about it ladies. This isn't true. We guys aren't too picky. To us, if you look good, you look good. We could really care less if you're wearing a skirt, dress, tank top and jeans, scrubs, sweatpants or astronaut costume. Typically, it seems as if women get all dressed up not so much to impress guys (because we typically don't care), but in a competition with other women. 

Trust me, if us guys see a beautiful woman who's wearing sweatpants, it's not like we cringe and mumble to ourselves, "Geez...how can she go out in public in those pants? Those are hideous. I can't even bare to look at her again. Okay, maybe one more time. Those would be easier to remove. Perhaps I should get her number. Hell, maybe I'll invite her over for dinner and ask that she wears her sweatpants. I don't want to make her wonder, though. That could be good, though, providing a little mystery for her. Yeah, maybe I'll do that. Damn, she's hot." Yup, just like that... Seriously, though, I think this ad is ridiculous. To us guys, ladies, you're beautiful no matter what you wear. Whether it's sweatpants, jeans or a skirt, if a woman is beautiful, the guys will be running toward and not away from her. That's science.

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
