What I learned in Week 6 of the NFL season

In Week 6 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ...in order for the Houston Texans to be in playoff contention at the end of the year, they'll need to make some clones of J.J. Watt, and play him on offense, defense, and special teams.

- ...at the end of the season, Tennessee and Jacksonville will likely alter their nicknames to the Don't Remember These Titans and Baby Jaguars.

- ...Lovie Smith wishes he hadn't been so bored that he took the job in Tampa. During Sunday games, he spends half of it fantasizing about golf courses and boredom.

- ...Geno Smith's prom photo was likely of him throwing a pick-six while dressed in a suit and a helmet.

- ..., to this day, no one is certain what to tell the media after a tie. Approximately 1 in 3 say, "Well, we didn't lose, so that's good." Another 1/3 say, "We didn't win, right?" The final 1/3 say, "So, when's the second overtime?"

- ...Tom Brady is as washed up as politicians are honest, talking heads are quiet, and dogs are independent.

- ..., even down by 4 with a few seconds left, Aaron Rodgers sings Frankie Goes To Hollywood's song "Relax" to his teammates.

- ...Kirk Cousins decided to celebrate Christmas early this year - twice in the past three weeks as a matter of fact. Yes, it's been an expensive holiday season.

- ...the Pittsburgh Steelers defense has gone from the "Steel Curtain" to calling their wives after six games into the regular season and saying, "Honey, be thinking about what new curtains we should buy after the season's over. So, right after our game in Week 17, we'll go shopping."

- ..., for the second time in two weeks (the only two times this season), a team from New York put up as many points as Danny DeVito has Super Bowl rings. Frank Sinatra, take it away...

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...
