Three months after Kasich gets KO'ed, he concedes defeat

Boxer John Kasich, better known as "The Mediocre White Hype," conceded defeat today, three months after he was knocked out by "The Orange Menace."

Here's how The Mediocre White Hype sprung this news on his Facebook page: 

"After three long months of looking for The Orange Menace, trying to get him to acknowledge my existence, and asking if I can get a do-over, I've finally decided to give up. I did all I could. I contacted all the judges to ask if they could think about scoring the match differently, and like a bunch of robots, they said, 'Sorry, but you getting knocked out five seconds into the fight and not getting up for a couple hours decided it for me.' I really think I would have had a better chance beating Killery than The Orange Menace does for his next fight, but I digress..."

Upon reading his post, several leading mental health experts stated they were worried Kasich might be suffering some potentially serious repercussions due to the knockout, as he closed his Facebook post by repeatedly saying, "Balanced budget. Balancing the budget. I'm the only one who's balanced the budget. My budget is balanced. Balance. Budget."

When I caught up with The Orange Menace to ask him about The Mediocre White Hype finally conceding defeat, he said, "Who? Who's The Medieval White Hype?" before pushing me away and walking into the tanning salon, "Nothing Rhymes with Orange Spray."

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 ...
