Tebow doesn't even need to step on the field to help his new team, according to a Yahoo writer...

Andrew Martin of Yahoo! released an article today entitled, "New England Patriots: Tim Teobw is Helping Team Without Even Stepping on the Field."

My reaction to that is, isn't that the only way Tebow can help the team? By not playing? Also, I can only imagine how it makes Tebow feel to read articles like this.

Call me crazy, but professional athletes love to compete, and love to actually play their respective sports. It's not every day you hear a conversation like this one:

Player: "Okay, coach. I'm ready! I trained really hard this off-season and think I'm going to be a great contributor to the team this year! Let's do this!"

Coach: "I think you can contribute this year as well."

Player: "Really, coach? That's great! Just great!"

Coach: "You didn't let me finish. What I need out of you is some solid cheerleading off the bench. Come up with your own cheers - make them catchy, and be a positive force on the sidelines for us. That would be of a greater service than you can imagine. Don't expect any playing time this year, though. You're just not that good."

Player: "Woo-hoo! Thanks, coach! That's just what I wanted to hear! I'm going to call my wife and tell her the good news! I think she has some pom-poms from high school still! This is going to be perfect!"

While Tebow may have quite a number of "lovers" and "haters," let's wait until the guy actually suits up and plays on the field (if that happens) before writing such pointless articles about the guy. For Mr. Martin's next article, I'm guessing it will be titled, "Tim Tebow's Minty Fresh Breath Puts Smiles on His Teammates' Faces." I'm sure it does...

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

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i

The verdict is in. To no one's surprise, Jonathan Hoenig has been found guilty of being an idiot.

Just recently, when discussing the Michael Brown shooting and whether or not race had anything to do with it, Fox News contributor Jonathan Hoenig said, "You know who talks about race? Racists." One moment while I provide Mr. Hoenig with the well deserved slow-clap. :: slow-claps for two seconds :: So, that was quite the line by Mr. Hoenig, wasn't it? "You know who talks about race? Racists." Well, wasn't he just talking about race? So, by his own words, I guess that makes him a racist. Also, if he wants to be consistent, does this mean that people whom talk about gender are sexists and people whom talk about sexual orientation are homophobes? With that line of thinking, Hoenig would engage in the following back-and-forths: Hoenig: "So, who are you voting for?" A woman: "The Democratic candidate, because he's been adamant about his support for equal rights for women." Hoenig: "You sexist feminist nazi!"
