Wow! Some big time cheatin' goin' on in the past week!
The Patriots get nailed for video taping Jets signals...$750,000 in total fines.
Team McLaren in F1 Racing gets caught with secret info on opponents cars...total fines of $100,000,000. Yes, that's $100 million!
OJ getting caught in a "secret sting operation" to retrieving his stuff...total fine...our dignity for having to watch his crap on tv again.
Gotta tell ya...I love sports as much as the next guy. Yes, even if the next guy is Ross and his wall-Lion. However, I am in awe that $100,750,000 in fines have been levied against only two organizations. Am I concerned because of the stupid amounts of cash that needlesly flows through the sports world? Is it because we,as fans, are following these stories like our lives depended on it? Or, is it because i am concerned about the well being of the victims in the cases?
No. None of the above.
$100 million!!??! Man, my hardest decision today was if I should buy a name brand can of peas and use a coupon, or go with the Kroger brand.
$100 million???!!!? I'm wearin' underwear that's 8 years old because I can't justify the rising cost of woven cotton!
$100 million?!!? My dogs eat food that's $3.99 for a 50lb bag because I believe it's the same as Iams...a dog food conspiracy that goes all the way to the top!
There it is. I just can't imagine having $100 million...let alone having $100 million to waste on a fine.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to find that coupon that gets me a $4.99 haircut at Great Clips.
After a lengthy sabatical, he sits in front of his computer, fingers ready at the keyboard. So much to say...so much to write. Topics race wildly through his mind, each fighting for the right to take their rightful place on the field of honor...the blog. Many will read the entries. Some will cry. Some will laugh. But one thing is certain...he must write, because he is...the Media Pastor.

That's interesting
Not much to talk about today, however I have found an interesting fact..,
According to Lexus Nexus, this week's most mentioned headline had to do with...not the anniversary of 911. Not the announcement by our general in Iraq. Not escalating oil prices. Not anything that seems remotely important.
Our #1 headline so far this week has been about: Brittany's performance at the Video Music Awards.
I can't even add to that.
