Speechless Sarah Palin drops mic after giving the best speech of her career

For the first time in her political career, Sarah Palin was damn well certain she gave a great speech, so certain in fact, she dropped the mic as she walked off the stage and then proceeded to give a "suck it" hand gesture to those in attendance.

The most amazing thing about the former Alaska governor's speech was the fact she didn't utter a single word during it. She just stood at the podium with her head held high, her right hand over her heart, and staring at something in the distance, but no one was sure what exactly.

Following the speech, the reviews from everyone were glowing.

John McCain enthusiastically stated, "My friends, that's exactly why I chose her to be my running mate in 2008! You betcha!"

Mitt Romney said, "Well, it looks like it's a good thing I decided not to run for president again. With her in the field, I'd have no chance!"

Former President George W. Bush chimed in as well, saying, "Now, don't misunderestimate me or nothing when I say this, but that could very well go down as the bestest speech in our country's history!"

Even the Democratic National Committee seemed impressed by Palin's speech, writing, "That's, by far and away, the best she's ever sounded!"

When later asked about her powerful wordless speech, Sarah Palin finally uttered a pair of words, when she said, "No comment."

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 ...
