In the NFL preseason thus far, I've learned that...

- ...(soon to be former) Washington Redskins quarterback RG III will likely alter his name to Bob Griffin to see if his play on the field and reputation on social media will change with it.

- ..., after having his best showing since he was a Philadelphia Eagle, Pittsburgh Steelers back-up quarterback Michael Vick called fellow Virginia Tech Hokie, now starting quarterback of the Buffalo Bills, Tyrod Taylor, and said these two words with regard to starting under head coach Rex Ryan: "Good luck!"

- ...the only people who dislike Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler more than his opponents are his teammates.

- ...ESPN will orgasm for 24 consecutive hours if Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel and Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Tim Tebow start in the same week over the course of the season.

- ...players from winning teams will continue to thank God for their wins, while players from losing teams will continue to leave God out of the conversation and say they need to suck less.

- ...New England Patriots starting quarterback Tom Brady will play with big balls.

- ...New York Giants starting quarterback Eli Manning will contemplate leaving football to star as the lead actor in a Forrest Gump remake.

- ...(now former) Oakland Raiders running back Trent Richardson is likely a virgin, for he can't even see a hole 10 feet wide.

- ...Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh will get placed on the FBI's Most Wanted List by season's end due to the high quantity of close calls he's had killing people on the field.

- ...the biggest preseason bet isn't who's going to win the Super Bowl; it's what's more likely, New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin lights up a room with his smile or Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterback Sam Bradford finishes a season healthy?

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...
