13 December 2007 - Ike Turner is dead and I overslept. I think I win.
Ike Turner died yesterday. I was never a huge fan, but he was a pioneer in rock music. Kathy asked me what happened. He was 76, he died. Happens.
OK, so this morning, I overslept. Until 5:30. 5:30!!!! I have to be a work at 5:00!!! I don't do that. I have run late to work by a couple of minutes a few times. But this was something I haven't done since I have been here. No, I did not lose power. I am just too dumb to figure out the complex workings of a digital alarm clock. Rule number one, turn it on so that it will go off when you wish to wake up.

The Mitchell Report comes out this afternoon. We will find our how many of the superstars in Major League Baseball have been using performance enhancing drugs. Most will be looking for those superstars names. NOT me. I will be looking for the other names. Not the guys who never made it. I want to see the names of those who fell on their faces. The guys who were decent everyday players who contributed. Then they decided they wanted to become a superstar and the performance enhancing drugs ruined them. Those are the guys that once their names come out, those guys need to do the public service announcements. I am not kidding when I say this, these are the ones who have the best story to tell. "I tried it, it didn't work. You shouldn't try it. There are no shortcuts."

Atlanta Falcons players are mad at Bobby Petrino. But not at Michael Vick? WHAT??
A career job hopper hopped jobs once again and they are upset and angry over this? BUT, when a teammate commits a series cruel crimes and that is OK?????
If you didn't know what kind of guy Bobby Petrino is, shame on you. Look at his resume. Signed a contract in July 2006 with Louisville for 10 years. Six months later, he leaves. Signs a five year deal in January with the Falcons, eleven months later he leaves. And you are mad at him.
But Vick can directly or indirectly kill dozens of dogs and that is OK?
Another sport George Mitchell needs to look into.
