A 7-year old sports a KKK costume on Halloween

Just because something is a tradition doesn't mean it's a good idea and should be upheld. Times changes, and with that, so should many traditions. Case and point is a recent story coming out of Craigsville, Virginia, where one Jessica "Black" allowed her 7-year old son to dress up like a Ku Klux Klan member, because yes, it's a family tradition.

When confronted by local ABC affiliate WHSV, Black said the following:

"My brother has [worn it] when he was in Kindergarten and when he was 13. It's supposed to be white with white, black with black, man with woman and all of that. That's what the KKK stands for."

Aw, isn't that cute...said no non-racist ever?

Based on her response, Ms. Black (yes, she just had to have that last name, didn't she?) likely believes in the following family traditions:

- Singing carols to homosexuals on Christmas they made up - from an album called Queers Is Goin' To Hell.

- Having her kids pass out ropes to African-Americans on Martin Luther King Day.

- Dressing her kids up like Adolf Hitler and sending them out to knock on doors in a Jewish neighborhood during Hanukkah.

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 ...
