Hillary Clinton meme in poor taste

I stumbled upon this Hillary Clinton meme on Facebook and thought it was in poor taste: 


I admit I thought the bits about "a rattlesnake with a 'pet me' sign," "a prostate exam from Captain Hook," and to a lesser extent, "Emails from a Nigerian Princess" and "gas station sushi," were humorous, I was taken aback by the references to Ray Rice and Bill Cosby. It's one thing for those whom despise Hillary Clinton to say they don't trust her to lead this country; it's quite another to say they'd trust a man caught on camera punching his girlfriend and a man accused of drugging and raping many women more than former Secretary of State Clinton. That comparison is in incredibly poor taste, especially considering the fact Hillary Clinton is a woman, and every one of Ray Rice and Bill Cosby's alleged victims were women. I may not trust Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, or Marco Rubio to lead this country, but I'm also not going to compare them to Ray Rice in an elevator or Bill Cosby as a bartender.

As a side-note, I found the mentions of "Mexican tap water," "a Jimmy Carter economic plan," and "Brian Williams news reports" unintentionally humorous as well. When reading that, I had to laugh and think, "You mean, Flint tap water (thanks to Republican Governor Rick Snyder), George W. Bush's economic plan, and Fox News reports, right?"

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 ...
