The "global apology" Sarah Palin should have issued...

Following President Obama's "ISIS" speech last week, former John McCain running mate, Sarah Palin, had a few words for the president when she appeared on Hannity  (the show, not the man). During this discussion between the clueless and clueless-er, Palin said this:

"To claim last night, also, our president saying ISIS is not Islamic, um, ISIS says they're Islamic. They are so full of deception that America should be concerned with the policies that are going on. And, as I watched the speech last night, Sean, the thought going through my mind is 'I owe America a global apology. Because John McCain, through all of this, John McCain should be our president.' He had the advice, today, still giving it to Barack Obama, and he will not listen to it, about the residual forces that must be left behind in order to secure the peace in Iraq that we had fought so hard for."

That's ironic - Sarah Palin issuing a global apology for not being the current Vice President of the United States? Here's the "global apology" speech she should have made:

"So, I was thinkin' the other night. I admit, that's very unusual for me at night, or at any other point in the 29-hour daily cycle we call life. But, anyway, I think I owe the real Americans of this country a global apology for almost becoming your Vice President, and being one step away from the presidency. Even though I think I'm pretty qualified since I can see Russia from anywhere on this planet - the United States, I didn't finish my term as governor because I felt it was best for my Alaskan peeps, and I'm still not sure whether or not the 'nowhere' in the bridge to nowhere was actually somewhere. Well, anyway, I'd like to globally apologize to America for that close call - you betcha! I'd also like to make a personal global apology to John McCain, because, let's be serious for a second here - he may have lost anyway, but with him being down as it was, I was the icing on the cake which ultimately made him lose, you know? Ooh, speaking of icing on the cake, I'm in the mood for a burger. Chow or see-yaw or whatever the Polish people say."

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 ...
