Scarborough: "Trump and Prince are like twins!"

After hearing the saddening news of musical artist Prince's passing yesterday, the cable news networks largely devoted their time to this story. This included MSNBC's token conservative, Joe Scarborough, who had this to say regarding the matter:

"And by the way, I'll give you the last point in a second, but just on this other point where you said he's (Trump's) so flexible, he's like Prince, a shape-shifter, New York Times top left, election 2016, 'Trump's views on gay issues set him apart on the GOP.' I mean, Trump on social issues, on Planned Parenthood, when he was in the middle of the fight in South Carolina, it wasn't like he was hiding things. And so Hillary is going to be up against a guy that not only says we're not going to cut Social Security, I'm with you on social issues. And by the way, we're going to kill ISIS in two weeks."

Yes, according to Joe Scarborough, Donald Trump and Prince are more similar than any of us may have thought at first. A bit of a stretch, don't you think? Allow me to provide Mr. Scarborough with some more accurate comparisons:

- "Ted Cruz is similar to the Insane Clown Posse, in that he has the tendency to frighten little children."

- "Rand Paul is kind of like Milli Vanilli, for he often enjoys taking credit for others' work."

- "Ben Carson often sounds like Nirvana, as no one's completely sure what he's saying."

- "Jeb Bush is like a nature CD, because he's just as exciting."

- "Donald Trump is like Nickelback, for he's about one thing more than any other - repetition, repetition, repetition."

There you go, Joe. You're welcome.

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 ...
