3 Things that blew my mind from the past week:
Red Sox– Pitching and defense. These were supposed to be the keys to the Red Sox season. Well, one month into the season, the Sox are ranked 12th (of 14) in the American League in pitching, and 13th in defense. So much for that plan. Not to mention two-thirds of the starting outfield is hurt, and David Ortiz is hitting .159 with a strike out every 2.7 at-bats. Oh yea, the starting catcher Victor Martinez is hitting .233 with 1 HR and 7 RBI, while his back up (Jason Varitek) is hitting .324 with 5 HR and 9 RBI in half as many games. To top it all off, the Sox just got swept by the worst team in the league (Baltimore), and are now already 7 games out of first place. Time to shake things up. I’m not sure what, but something’s gotta change. Hopefully the Bruins and Celtics keep winning, because if the only thing I have to watch are these pitiful Red Sox, I’m gonna lose it.
Boston Water Crisis – "Now if a Muslim woman strapped with a bomb on a bus with the seconds running give you the jitters, Just imagine an American-based Christian organization planning to poison water supplies to bring the second-coming quicker. "

Naaaaah. Not this time. Just a water main break. I’ll tell you what gives me the jitters though: a car bomb in Times Square. Yikes.
This KFC commercial –
Breast cancer is a very serious disease, and I applaud KFC for doing its part in raising money for a cure. But 50 cents for every huge ass bucket of that greasy chicken? Sure they might raise enough to make a significant contribution to breast cancer research, but at what cost? They’ll be contributing to the increasing obesity of America, not to mention more than a few heart attacks and clogged arteries. Seems kinda like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. KFC’s message: Fuck cancer, have a heart attack instead.
