Friday Thoughts
Haven't posted for a while. Sorry to disappoint you all, or maybe a couple of you. I'm back for a bit! So pay attention!
• Somebody, please, put a muzzle on Curt Schilling. Great Raven's Ghost! Yeah, Curt, you apologized for your comments about Barry Bonds, but so what? That's the trend these days. Get your opinion out there and then apologize, falsely believing the jury will disregard.
What was that again?
He doesn't deserve to break Hank Aaron's home run record? Why? Were the fences 200 feet closer for Bonds? What is it about the 745 home runs Barry has already that shouldn't put him 10 away from the mark? Got news for you: Once 756 has been hit, he deserves it. Game over.
So you don't like Barry Bonds. You think you're alone? Shut the hell up, Curt. And I hope that when the Giants play you next month, Barry aims to go right up the middle and up your ass.
• Have been enjoying season 1 of Family Ties, which recently came out (finally!) on DVD. And I must say, yes, I knew Justine Bateman was attractive. But looking back now, I'm not exactly sure how I did not think Justine Bateman was the hottest girl on the planet during the debut season of that show. Lordy, she was far more amazing than I realized.
Speaking of Justine Bateman, I think she and her brother Jason should have had a make-out scene when their characters met up on Arrested Development in the show's waning days. That would have made them absolute legends.
• NASCAR is not a sport. Driving is not a sport. If driving and poker are sports, then I am a wonderful two-sport athlete on a par with Bo and Deion. Or maybe Gene Conley. Also, NASCAR is boring. Watching cars go round and round is not fun. I don't get it.
• Also, I sat through the Oscar de la Hoya-Floyd Mayweather boxing match, and when I say "boxing" I mean "standing around." And it's 47 minutes I will never get back. Why is boxing still a thing? That was the most boring thing I've ever seen, and I've seen Smokin' Aces.
All right, then. Have you had your fill of my worthless opinions? Great! Go get yourself a beer. It's Friday afternoon, fer cryin' out loud! Whaddya doin' here?

He admitted that he used steroids. I mean, there's no gray area. He admitted to cheating on his wife, cheating on his taxes, and cheating on the game.He did? When?
