Things I learned in Week 9 of the NFL regular season

- On Thanksgiving, Kansas City head coach Andy Reid is going to be thankful for coming to a team with a great defense, where he'll receive all of the credit.

- Philadelphia Eagles head coach Chip Kelly is confused beyond all belief, thinking to himself, "Was the Dallas Cowboys defense that good or was Nick Foles that bad, and was the Oakland Raiders defense that bad or was Nick Foles that good?," before coming to the conclusion that he should do a three-wisemen shot.

- It will forever be a mystery why Brandon Weeden was starting at quarterback for the Cleveland Browns over both Brian Hoyer and Jason Campbell.

- If not for the 6-3 Cincinnati Bengals, the AFC North may make the NFC East look good.

- Even after spotting the winless Buccaneers a 21-0 lead, Tampa Bay still found a way to lose to Seattle. Tampa Bay head coach Greg Schiano is now reportedly asking to be fired.

- Atlanta Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez is thinking about retiring again, this time mid-season.

- Houston Texans quarterback Case Keenum has officially saved the team from the dreaded pick-six, enough to lose back-to-back heart-breakers to Kansas City and Indianapolis.

- Joe Flacco won't be going to Disneyworld again at the end of the season. Well, I take that back. He may go with family at the start of the playoffs.

- Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant is thinking about starting a new form of Buddhism, called, Loud Peace and Sh*t (LPAS).

- Even on a bye week, the Denver Broncos manage to score over 40 points.

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!"
