SPORTS CAN HURT...AND AN A.I. WRAP-UP
American Idol finishes up: Not much to talk about today except for the final result. I did not watch most of last night's schlockfest, wherein I'm guessing they brought out the Top 12 singers and some celebrity singers to do random songs that have nothing to do with anything. I did tune in to catch the results, though, and was pleasantly surprised when David Cook's name was called out as the winner. The voters got it right: David Cook is the more talented singer of the two. Archuleta is still just a kid, and he has some polishing up to do before he'll make it big in the music world. He can sing, but he had a few moments of messing up the lyrics and such that are not typical of an American Idol winner. Cook, on the other hand, performs like a seasoned pro and is a lot more versatile than Archuleta. The only problem is, Cook's gonna have to have some cheeseball songs on his first album. Oh well, he'll get past all that.
