Flawless Thoughts

The last NFL game has been played, and there won't be another for at least seven months. That game was a great finale, keeping the streak of exciting Super Bowls running and leaving me satisfied for the long break ahead. The Black Eyed Peas performance was not the only misguided decision to result in disappointment, as a certain amount of seats where deemed unusable only a few hours before the game, and the owners of those tickets relocated to seats outside of the stadium. That's right, imagine that you traveled from say Green Bay, all the way to Texas and your seat was relocated outside of the stadium. Even though these fans were reimbursed, what a buzzkill.

The Yankees offseason has been a little weird, though I guess nothing beats A-Rod's strange roid confession during the 2008/09 offseason. But this year, why would you make a guy who is the face of your franchise, look like some guy who's past his prime that you'll do a favor for? What were they thinking making Jeter look greedy? The Mets offseason though? This one is up there on the list of strange offseasons. Leave it to the Mets owners to be publicly aligned with Bernie Madoff, not as a victim, but as a group that made money!

The Lakers aren't, "good enough to win a championship". That's strange, because they have the third best record in the West and are fifth best in the league and it's only February. Apparently they are now interested in trading Bynum for Melo. That sounds like a big mistake to panic and make a trade like that. Getting rid of the future for a loan like Melo, who would most likely not sign past the remainder of this season with the Lakers. Sounds risky as his style could clash with Kobe, who has been known to not get along with other superstars.
