Disgraceful

Defined as: giving offense to moral sensibilities and injurious to reputation.

I have nothing else to say.

Too much airplay X2!

Man, I am so tired of Akon (cross b/w Flava Flav and Shabba Ranks) and T-Pain (thinks he's the new Teddy Riley with that stupid computer voice on EVERY track). I suppose I can tolerate either one making a cameo on another artists track for one verse, but outside of that, I'm annoyed. Part of it is that Detroit DJs play the $hite out of them, but added to the full-fledged lack of creativity in r&b and hip-hop right now, these two jabronis are making sick money! When will people wake up and see the fraud before our eyes?!


That's all for now.

Father's Day Paradox

It's kind of interesting in the era of equal rights and supposed absence of double standards in terms of men vs women roles and societal norms in certain societies that today, Father's Day is a hardly a blip on the map of marketing for this "holiday". Flip the script and Mother's Day gets all the pub....as it should, since the mother is who delivers the child into this world, but as the highly overused saying goes, "It takes two to tango" and without the "help" of a father or at least a trip to THE BANK" human life does not spontaneously occur. As a newly crowned father, I take no offense to Mother's Day getting much more of the deserved fanfare. It's 100% fine with me, but I know there are guys out there who like to play the "equal rights" card for something as silly as a day on the calendar that makes them feel good about themselves when their child gets them a wack tie or some other trinket. I did fine today, but I don't need a day to remind me of how a father needs to be. Everyday is Father's Day for those who take it seriously.

Current Obsession

I'm in love. Why must I be a responsible parent? :( Why can I not live out my MotoGP dreams on this insane ride?! Sporting a special Italian flag-inspired green, white and red color scheme, the Ducati Superbike 1098 S Tricolore (for a low$25,000) produces 160-hp and 90.4lbs/ft of torque, making it the most powerful twin-cylinder motorcycle in the world. It's also the lightest open class Superbike available, weighing only 381 pounds. Parts like Brembo brakes, lightweight alloy Marchesini wheels, and a 102-dB Termignoni racing muffler kit with dedicated ECU help make the Tricolore the fastest stopping and quickest lapping Ducati in history.

I need to quickly step away from the monitor....

Hall of Fame IDIOT!!

Oh man, I am pretty pissed right now. I was surfing cyberspace and hit up espn and read this story. It involves one of my former favorite baseball players, Gary Sheffield. He truly was one of my favorites, but the anger in his heart has really changed my view. This piece of trash claims his theory for why there are not as many blacks in the MLB than there are Latinos is that blacks are "less likely to be controlled." Here is the best set of quotes from the story: "Where I'm from, you can't control us. You might get a guy to do it that way for a while because he wants to benefit, but in the end, he is going to go back to being who he is. And that's a person that you're going to talk to with respect, you're going to talk to like a man.

"These are the things my race demands. So, if you're equally good as this Latin player, guess who's going to get sent home? I know a lot of players that are home now can outplay a lot of these guys."

Are you frikkin kidding me?! Last time I checked, outplaying anyone in the pro level would land you on a squad, so for this idiot to claim that Latin players are just more susceptible to "being controlled" is just pure ignorance. I can promise you that if this were a white guy saying this about black players, it would be front page news for Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, but this will be just a blip on the espn homepage for a few hrs and disappear. I can assure you that I will be firing off emails to the Tigers and several other sources to get some attention to this ignorance until this idiot realizes what a completely stupid "theory" he has.

It's not that difficult, black kids don't play baseball because they like basketball and football. Simple as that. Baseball is probably just not "cool" to them. Like soccer, hockey, lacrosse, etc. Does that mean those sports have people in them that are easily controlled as well?

Gary Sheffield is a moron and I hope he gets hit with a pitch the next time he's at bat.
