NFL or is it......No Football Left.

I about reached the end of the line with the NFL and the game they call football, it's not football anymore at least not the football anybody over the age of 30 would remember! The next step is to wear flags or just play two hand touch so no one gets a bruise or sore body part.

It's been driving me crazy for a year or so now maybe longer with all the crap players can't do or get penalized for doing these days. I see more yellow hankies being tossed around than footballs and the men in the stripped shirts get more TV time than the players or coaches or cheerleaders! The game has become a real pussy's game if you ask me. Oh sure we don't want to see players get life threatening injures but holy cow can we see someone hit or even touch an offensive player without getting flagged and penalized? Pass interference has become a complete joke, since when is an official charged with controlling the outcome of a game. This happened and almost happened a few times Sunday and Monday too! God even stepped in at the Cardinals game when with time running out an official decided to call a ticky tack pass interference to allow the Raiders to win the game with time expiring by kicking a winning field goal...................not so fast said the football gods, this kicker that can kick one from 62 yards plus and never misses from 30 to 39 yards yanked one left and the referee was foiled once more.

Tell me how a defensive player with the speeds they have today can stop on a dime when some fool in strips decides to blow his whistle, or how does a 6 foot player run straight into another 6 foot player without these big ass helmets possibly touching each other? There you go, a helmet to the head whether it's incidental or not or if it just brushes against the other face guard in passing.................helmet to helmet, personal foul 15 yards and a first down to maybe win the game or at least change the outcome in most circumstances!

And like I said, pass interference is totally bullshit nine out of ten times, are we that worried about scoring that we need to hand offenses touchdowns and new life when the ref feels like changing the game a bit. Is this right out of a "wild buffalo wings" commercial or what?

We need to play a game or two without referees, let the players police themselves and see what a real football game should look like. These young people of today would probably be horrified by the play of the likes of Butkus, or the steel curtain, or Max Magee or Howie Long, or you could go on and on and on with tough guys from the real NFL. Holy cow how many yards would Walter Payton have run for if now one could have touched him in fear of hurting him or getting penalized, how long could Johnny U stayed in the pocket and competed 100's more passes knowing no one could hit him for fear of a personal foul penalty. The game today is for rich pussy's that do drugs and drive fast cars while drinking booze, or sitting on the sidelines with a sore toe rather than playing through pain. No this is not football and don't kid yourself if you think it is, even I played flag for an Air Force team and took more hits that these fat dudes of today's game......and we drank after the game not on the way to the game.

We need to change the name in the NFL, something other that "football" for the F and let the Euro's keep the word football since they actually can hit one another!

American Idol or What a joke?

American Idol, this is one show on television I must say I don't watch and have really never cared to watch since it's inception. Oh yes I have seen a few episodes when the kids have been over and it was an American Idol night, for some reason a must see for them. I think it's a big joke because the producers, and the hundreds of thousands of dollars behind them could take anyone of 100's of contestants and turn them into recording stars the way they have the past winners. You'll never convince me that out of the thousands of contestants that handful at the end and ultimately one person that wins is and was the best of the rest! The final ten are all groomed for a recording career by the show in my opinion and besides they say that America chooses the winner via their voting................right! Now until H. DeGeneres(ate) came aboard they at least had two supposedly music industry judges and one performer doing the initial cuts and I just read where the only one left is Randy Jackson, the rest of the panel has gone on to other things.

We need two new judges so the search went on and numerous names hit the air-ways and internet and print media but most turned down this opportunity, until now. I heard today that American Idol now has their two judges to accompany Randy Jackson and Wow what the hell are they thinking? Steven Tyler of Aerosmith and Jennifer Lopez joining Randy Jackson, yes I'm sure no finer talent scouts out there that wanted to make $12 million dollars for a season of Idol. That's right, $12 million dollars is what "J. Lo" will be making and I'm sure "S. Ty" is making a bunch less but still in the millions I'd bet. So all you fans out there just keep on texting each week over and over again to the tune of millions upon millions of text each show multiplied by $1.00 each text because the likes of "J. Lo" need those dollars more than you do.

I'll work on coming up with something so all you loyal fans can sent me a text and at least one of us will be having a happy ending like those on American Idol and a handful of the final contestants..................................that would be "no joke". The show will most likely be canceled after a season of this trio of clowns as judges because the viewing audience will surely drop like a rock with the departure of Simon, and you all will help "J. Lo" and "S. Ty" smile all the way to the bank!

Somthing I found very interesting to read......

I forwarded an e-mail so some of you might have already seen this, but I found this so interesting and asked the person that sent it to me if I could use it on my blog. Facts and statistic's like this really make you think about why and who is running the asylum and how and why they got to be in charge of the asylum. I found this very interesting and you might also.


This certainly will give you something to think about!!
This is the most interesting thing I've read in a long time. The sad thing about it, you can see it coming.
I have always heard about this democracy countdown..
It is interesting to see it in print.
God help us, not that we deserve it.
How Long Do We Have?
About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler,
a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the Athenian
Republic some 2,000 years earlier:
"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government."
"A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves
generous gifts from the public treasury."
"From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury,
with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship."
"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years"
During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6. from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. from dependence back into bondage'
Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University
School of Law, St. Paul , Minnesota
points out some interesting facts concerning the
2008 Presidential election:
Number of States won by:
Democrats: 19
Republicans: 29
Square miles of land won by:
Democrats: 580,000
Republicans: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by:
Democrats: 127 million
Republicans: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
Democrats: 13.2
Republicans: 2.1

Professor Olson adds:
"In aggregate, the map of the territory the
Republican won was mostly the land owned by the
taxpaying citizens of this great country.
Democrat
territory mostly encompassed those citizens living
in government-owned tenements and living off various
forms of government welfare... "Olson believes the
United States is somewhere between the "complacency and
apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of
democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's
population already having reached the governmental
dependency phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA
in fewer than five years.
If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message. If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.

WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, ONLY BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE
