Is Tebow winning because of God? Yes, people are asking this...

Due to the Denver Broncos 7-1 record with Tim Tebow at the helm and in the manner that they've won these games, some are claiming that it's due to divine intervention. Tim Tebow is an outspoken Christian and is not coy about showing this on the field as well. That's his right. Whatever. However, the notion that God is aiding Tebow and the Broncos because of Tebow is ridiculous.

How many members of the Indianapolis Colts football team are Christian? I don't have data to back this up, but I'm guessing several. How many are die-hard Christian? Again, I have no numbers on hand to support my guess, but I would have to believe there are at least a couple. Why then are the Colts 0-13?

The Chicago Cubs haven't won a World Series since 1908. Have they not possessed any die-hard Christians on  their clubs for the past 103 years?

Did the Boston Red Sox break their curse with the aid of God, since one of their players prayed hard enough that year?

What, does God make sports bets while in heaven? Does he have a serious problem with the before-mentioned Cubs? Is Lucifer perhaps a Cubs fan?

I think even Mr. Tebow himself would call this asinine, that and to praise baby Jesus, or something along those lines...

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...

Mentioned on Crooks and Liars and Hinterland Gazette!

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 ...
