Hope Solo is pissed

Hope Solo, the U.S Women’s Soccer goalie who hadn’t let up a goal in 3 straight matches, was benched today against Brazil in favor of 36 year old Brianna Scurry and she’s none too happy about it. The U.S. lost in the semi-finals to Brazil 4-0. Scurry was less than spectacular but was [...]

France gets big stick and waves it

France, not known for tough talk, has impressed me lately. President Sarkozy has warned that Iran getting a nuclear weapon is an “unacceptable risk to stability in the region and in the world” and that it will lead to war if the world fails to deter Iran. Wow. Is this really France? [...]

Absurdity at Columbia U.

This was a very odd day. First of all Columbia invited a deranged terrorist leader to speak at their campus but does not allow the ROTC on campus. Let me put it a different way. The very military that keeps us safe and Ahmadinejad is helping to kill in Iraq is not welcome [...]

Patriots like the number 38

The New England Patriots have scored 38 points in each game this year.  38-14 over the Jets, 38-14 over the Chargers, and 38 – 7 over the Bills.  Belichick pulled Tom Brady out of the game early too.   I’m sure the number 38 has some cosmic meaning such as the parking space of Eric Mangini [...]

What’s wrong with acting white?

I don’t shy away from controversial subjects and I do not submit to political correctness so I am willing to take on this subject since I do think a discussion about American values has merit.
Jesse Jackson allegedly said that Barack Obama was “acting like he’s white”. He reportedly made these statements in the context [...]

Approval Ratings: Congress 11%, Bush 29%

Sounds to me like Congress needs to shut up.

Someone talk me down from the ledge

The Red Sox have just a 2 game lead in the loss column now.  Eric Gagne blew it again.  Walked in the tying run before losing the game completely.  We traded rookie Kason Gabbard who was 4-0 for this bozo.   Why he was even in the game with a 2-1 lead is baffling.    We have [...]

John Stossel on health care

I love John Stossel. In the wake of HillaryCare 2.0 being announced this week, here is Stossel’s take on healthcare.
It’s too bad for Hillary that she picked the week O.J. Simpson got arrested to announce her new plan. Nobody is paying attention to her plan again.

Misguided kid tasered by misguided police

So some University of Florida student, Andrew Meyer, who obviously doesn’t get enough attention at home, decided to ask Senator John Kerry some ridiculous questions during a campus forum. His mic was shut off during questioning and immediately campus police tried to restrain him and escort him out. Baffled at what he had [...]

Jets live in glass house

It appears the holier-than-thou New York Jets also think the rules do not apply to them. The team that ratted out the Patriots have been accused of illegally calling out snap counts on defense to cause the other team to jump offside.
This time it’s the Jets who are being accused of cheating.
Ravens coach Brian [...]
