NFL Schedule Out Today

The NFL will announce next season's schedule today. I am most interested to know when the Chargers will be playing the Vikings in Minneapolis because I will of course make every attempt to attend that game.

From the no surprise here department, the charges against players of the Duke LaCrosse team are going to be dropped. This was one of those cases a person could smell the 'fishiness' of it from the beginning. And as details of the victim's story surfaced and was clearly not truthful but because of the sensationalism of the charges and the people involved it appeared as if the prosecutor was trying to grab some headlines for himself.

Imagine this, a law enforcement agency actually doing what it is suppose too. Yes, in Grand Forks, ND - located in the barren wasteland - they have a police officer that actually goes around and checks up on sex offenders before they have re-offended . A person usually doesn't hear about repeat sex offenders until they have committed another crime and then most just shake their heads and say what more can we do? These sex offenders have to be roaming the streets because we need more room for the pot-heads and drunk drivers.

And here's a deceptive headline: "Summer Gas Forecast: Slightly Lower Prices". Of course they mean slightly lower prices than last year but higher prices than right now. I think it is all bullshit and the price of gas will go higher because it rained in Florida last month preventing an oil shipment from getting to port on time so prices will increase $2 on that news. And then another $2 per gallon because Iran printed some mean-spirited letters on the internet about America.
