Marilyn Manson set to make a gospel album

It's being reported that shock rocker Marilyn Manson will soon be making the most shocking move of his entire career and releasing a gospel rock album.

According to Manson, the man who was once self-described as the "Antichrist Superstar," he'll be putting a different spin on some classic hymns. When we talked to him about it during a recent interview, he said this:

"I've done heavy metal, space rock, punk and goth rock, classic rock, and even blues rock. I've shocked through my lyrics and onstage antics, but that shock has lost its luster through the years. So, I thought to myself, what would shock people more than anything right now? Releasing a gospel rock album! That would f**king shock the sh*t out of them!"

When asked, Manson also added that the album will be called, "The Helly Bible: King Manson's Version," and will include the following songs:

- "Amazing Lace"

- "I Philander All"

- "Onward Drunken Soldiers"

- "Hell Lives"

- "Oh Cum All Ye Faithful"

- "Jesus Loves the Little Children (Just Not the Big Ones)"

- "Blasphemy"

- "Lust and Betray"

- "Oh, Town of Amsterdam"

- "Jesus Loves Me (And the Stuff I Blow)"

Upon hearing about Manson's new album, James Dobson, founder of the Christian group, Family Research Council, said, "Jesus F'ing Christ!!! Let us pray..."

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 ...
