STRAIGHTSHOOTER

As the presidential election looms closer and the race heats up its become obvious that the vast majority of voters that do stand up to be counted are becoming more and more burned out on the so called "televised debates" that seem to "herd" us once again towards the same old stale politics by the same old stale politicains of the same old stale and burnt out partys - which by the way have become harder to tell the difference between the two anymore. We have been subjected once again to the patented and sterile questions from the mediator that is designed to bore the hell out of you and keep you from interfering with the politicians that have been choosen for you by a media that refuses to allow you to see all of the fruit on the tree. More and more the images of people who dare to stand up and question the "authorities" and "candidates" are wisked from the arena and labled "unruly" so as not to raise that red flag in peoples minds - I mean who do these rebels think they are asking anything from their elected officials let alone expecting anything from them once their in office, don't these rebels realize that this is the new world order and you will do as your told and vote for the candidates that are choosen for them?

$2.35 Million is a lot of money for a piece of cardboard with a picture on it and thats the amount that was paid for a 1909 Honus Wagner, considerd by some as the best one out of about 60 known to exist, it is in pristine condition. These cards were inserted into a pack of cigarettes at that time - not a good thing in todays world.
Honus Wagner played for the Pittsburg Pirates and was one of the first five players inducted into the hall of fame.

Going through life we meet and interact with many different types of people, whether their laid back and easy going or intensly wound up tight. Every now and then I will cross paths with "the angry man", you've seen him, always impatient, never has a nice thing to say about anything, unhappy about everything and he's always right. In line at the check out counter he bitch's about someone writing a check, at election time he bitch's about the candidates so he doesnt vote, at the restraunt he eats 3/4ths of his meal and whine's that its not the way he wanted it.

Dad I'm bored has gotten to be a familiar saying the last 4 days since my daughter has been home from school because of a teacher inservice and it being a cold spell on top of it here in the north T.V. can be boring to an active "tween". As she cruised through the cable channels she came upon the T.B. show and exclaimed WOW she has gained a "few" pounds.

The #1 Wisconsin Badgers lost a big chance to stand alone as the team to beat come tourney time with a lost to Michigan State. The badgers looked tired and listless as the Spartans battled them back and forth during the entire game and finaly taking a lead with 2 minutes left and the badgers could'nt hang with them. Not being able to sink 3 pointers and tucker not driving to the hoop and drawing the fouls kept the badgers from winning one that would have sent them to Ohio on saturday with a full head of steam. Now comes the big game must win for Wisconsin to slam the door on Ohio to be the big ten champions. It will be a great game to watch and more than likely the best of the season for fans of BIG TEN BASKETBALL.

Why is it as humans, the inteligent and ruling species on planet earth, we can't learn - expand our minds and think outside the box? As a whole we tend to follow the same paths, refuseing to take the left fork in the road, always following the herd down the right. Are we scared to try the new or are we secure with the old. Gas prices rise - we whine - but do nothing to change our habits. Politicians practise the same old stale politics and accomplish nothing, wasteing our tax dollars - passing laws but not enforcing them - listening to lobbyists and not the people - and still we do nothing. Republican - Democrat - makes no difference because there is no difference. We pit ourselves against each other instead of joining together to force a change in policy and direction. We the people had a chance in the last election to send a clear cut message to our elected "representatives" that we had had enough - and we failed by not cleaning house and getting fresh ideas and policies and direction.

Vanderbilt slays another giant, this time it was the all powerful and cocky Florida. Florida has been flirting with disaster for the past several games and it was bound to catch up to them eventually. Dodging a near disaster against Alabama, Florida came out to play with flat feet and 22 turnovers - missed shots that they normally make and a lack luster performance by the normally self centered and cocky Joakim Noah to lose a - not even close game to a very confident and team oriented Vanderbilt.

Anna Nichole Smith made the comment in her youth that she would be the next Marilyn Monroe - with her untimely death on wendsday her predictions are ringing true.

Another hollyweird rollercoaster life ends in apperent mystery - and I use this term loosely because I'm predicting it will be a "drug interaction" 5 months after the "mysterious" death of her 22yr old son.

Now begins the parasitic scramble by lawyers, exhusbands/boyfreinds, and the government to get a peice of whats left, and the only one who will suffer the outcome will be a 5 month old baby girl who has no comprehention of whats going on and will be left to slip through the cracks of a system that will let her down.

WOW what a saturday of basketball! With the upset win by North Carolina State over # 3 North Carolina the polls should be a rockin on monday. McCauley and Atsur brought their A game to the upset and played some of the best nitty gritty ball that we've seen all year.

The one blemish on this game was the OBVIOUSE half hearted wimpy punch that was thrown by Hansbrough of NC, don't care if it landed or not - don't care if it was a frustration punch - his ass should have been pointed to the exit sign, period."

Why is it that when someone - anyone makes a comment about blacks in America its met with a blacklash of critisizm? Don't give me the "we've suffered" reply - we've ALL suffered. Sen.Joseph Bidens remark about "clean" was obviously taken out of context,granted the better termonolgy should have been "fresh", meaning that Barack Obama was a fresh face with fresh ideas as opposed to the same old stale politics by the same old stale politicians."

WOW what a night of basketball! #2 Wisconsin drops one at Indiana,#1 Florida fiddles with disaster. Wisconsins loss at Indiana was one that should'nt have gotten away, it seemed like the only player that showed up to play was Orlando Tucker,the rest of the team just came along for the ride. The last few games have been that way for Wisconsin, it seems like their waiting for Tucker to win the game for them and it's not going to happen."

I've come to the conclusion that the sports "pollsters" are so bias that we will never get an honest opinion as to the rankings of the different teams we follow. If you live on the east coast you can bet on the east coast pollers leaning your way - same on the west coast. Theres times i wonder if they think that we're that blind or just plain stupid. Happy trails, straightshooter.
