What I learned in Week 4 of the NFL season...

In week 4 of the NFL season, I learned...

- ...Pittsburgh Steelers place kicker Josh Scobee and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee should combine their last names so they're both more appropriately called Mr. Suckabee.

- ..., if things continue as they have been, several Miami Dolphins players may go the way of Ray Finkle and undergo sex changes to save themselves from further embarrassment.

- ...Buffalo Bills head coach Rex Ryan and St. Louis Rams head coach Jeff Fisher may find their innermost Dennis Green at some point during the season and yell at the media, "We're not sure who we think we are!"

- ...Philadelphia Eagles head coach Chip Kelly may be featured on Saturday Night Live at some point during this season, where he will present the following Jack Handey-esque version of Deep Thoughts: "I wonder if it was the best of ideas to part ways with Pro Bowl quarterbacks Michael Vick and Nick Foles, Pro Bowl running back LeSean McCoy, Pro Bowl wide receivers DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin, Pro Bowl guard Evan Mathis, and other Pro Bowlers from two 10-6 teams."

- ...the AFC South teams, with a combined record of 6-10, are in a heated battle to be named the best of the worst come season's end.

- ...kickers' and Congress' approval ratings are virtually identical nationwide.

- ...Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is going to propose rule changes for field goals to be worth 5 points a piece and for extra points to be worth 0, thinking to himself, "If that were the case, we would have won 35-32."

- ...the Houston Texans are asking for permission to clone J.J. Watt so he can play quarterback for them in place of Ryan Mallett and Brian Hoyer.

- ..., after starting 0-2 without the likes of Tony Romo and Dez Bryant, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones wants to tell the press, "How 'bout them Cowboys...when they're fully healthy?"

- ...the Detroit Lions' roar on the road with Matthew Stafford behind center against teams that finish above .500 is but a soft meow.

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

The verdict is in. To no one's surprise, Jonathan Hoenig has been found guilty of being an idiot.

Just recently, when discussing the Michael Brown shooting and whether or not race had anything to do with it, Fox News contributor Jonathan Hoenig said, "You know who talks about race? Racists." One moment while I provide Mr. Hoenig with the well deserved slow-clap. :: slow-claps for two seconds :: So, that was quite the line by Mr. Hoenig, wasn't it? "You know who talks about race? Racists." Well, wasn't he just talking about race? So, by his own words, I guess that makes him a racist. Also, if he wants to be consistent, does this mean that people whom talk about gender are sexists and people whom talk about sexual orientation are homophobes? With that line of thinking, Hoenig would engage in the following back-and-forths: Hoenig: "So, who are you voting for?" A woman: "The Democratic candidate, because he's been adamant about his support for equal rights for women." Hoenig: "You sexist feminist nazi!"
