Facts and Opinions.....

It blows my mind that there are forums out there for every Aaron, Marty and Gord to spout off about things that come into their head.

It is even more unbelieveable that someone might even read them. And care about them. Enough to comment on them. On the internet where everyone can see. This isn't an email string that will die a quick, painless death in someone's "Deleted" folder. This is eternity.

So, if you put something on there, you'd better believe in what you are saying.

Here goes nothing:

Tiger Woods; He should not have to give his wife $750,000,000 because he banged a few more women than he should have. She was a nanny before she met him. Ok, I'll give you that she very well may have been the worlds hottest nanny, but that entitles her to $5,000,000 tops. Add in the public humiliation and ridicule, say another $5,000,000 worth. That's $10,000,000. Take your money and be happy he didn't decide to look after it a "different" way.

Also, he doesn't owe anyone an explanation. He should get a "face-or-gut" shot on any of the scabs who called him out. Guess what Jesper? You're making about 1/3 of what you're making now without him. The proper answer to that question was "C'mon guys, you know I can't say anything about that!"

NBA basketball; You guys are a joke. 2 months to play a post-season? Gimme a break.

I guess, you need 3 days in between games to let the ex-players who have since been annointed "experts" by ESPN to spout off in what is often unintelligible english about the importance of playing with "energy". I have heard Mike and Mike get 3.5 of their alotted 4hrs in the morning doing strictly "Kobe vs. MJ". Of course, that's after Lebron was eliminated. Before that, it was All Lebron, All The Time. No wonder these guys are Superstars. You pump their tires to the point of bursting, then hope for scoop on the aftermath. No one can possibly care that much about basketball. No one.

World Cup; Quit bitching about the vuvuzelas (sic?). It's like having a world-wide event in Sasky and having Uganda tell us we need to quit wearing watermelons on our heads. It is their custom, it is their country and it is their choice to piss away their chance to promote their game, their people and their country. It's only approx. 3 billion people watching. Surely South Africa can afford that. Right?

That's all for the facts, next time, I'll give you some opinions........
