Seriously?

Y’all know I’m not exactly a huge sports fan, but if there’s any sport I don’t mind watching on TV, it’s football.  You also know that I come from a lineage of schools with losing football teams.  I went to Hightstown High School, and I don’t recall if they ever won a game.  And then I went to Rutgers shortly after they joined the Big East, and well, they sucked.  So I wasn’t exactly following the team or anything, because, well, I don’t follow sports, and they were a losing team, anyway.  I still have a bit of school pride, though, and for those of you who don’t follow sports at all, I must call your attention to the fact that the Scarlet Knights just beat #3 Lousiville tonight.  This makes them 9-0 for the season.  That’s…..that’s insane.  Rutgers?  Really?  Well, maybe I’m just jumping on the bandwagon, but that gives me a bit of pride in my old school.

Split seasons

Whatever happened to the television hiatus?  Remember when a show would just go away for a few weeks or a month around Christmas-time, and then it would come back and finish its season?  Now, apparently, they have the Fall Season, and I suppose there is also the Winter Season.  A show will now have it’s “Fall Season Finale” in November and then not come back until February.  I understand that the idea, as the networks see it, is that they now have an audience used to watching TV in that time-slot and so they hope that they can bring in a new show mid-season to try it out and see if it works.  But what they are also doing is annoying and confusing their audiences who watch a show like Lost for the first half of the season and then forget everything that happened by the time the second half of the season finally airs.

Giving the people what they want

This won’t make any sense to most of you…

I really hate “Yosh” Tanagawa.
