RANT: College “amateur” athletes
Monday, February 19, 2007I find it hard to get excited about men’s college basketball because of the student athlete issue. You know “graduates who can’t read” or “four year starters leaving without a diploma”.
The NCAA is nothing more than a government sponsored monopoly.
Argh! UofM, Rutgers, and all the other gooferment schools taking my tax money by force to play a game? RU just bought Sciano the fball coach a new house. Arghh!
The “schools” make grazillions out of the labors of unpaid athletes. And, when their time is up, they get hurt, or “offend”, over the side they go.
It’s a new form of slavery.
Don’t find it just a little ironic when a lilly white student body of a “prestigious” school are cheering for their non-white “warriors” in a meaningless “game”.
I wonder what MLK would have said?
I admire their skill, their training, and their spirit. I just don’t think they are getting a fair shake. Just as I admire a marathoner from Kenya, a Russian chess grandmaster, or anyone who can do anything I can’t.
I just think a “little” reform is in order.
At least with the Jasper basketball players of Manhattan College, I know that brother President personally reviews their academics. I’ve talked to many of the graduates and I’d hire them tomorrow.
Now if all college presidents were as honest!

I’ve been invited to post at the “Blog of South Brunswick”. No contract, no commitment. But, it does give my voice some volume. :-) Think they know what they got themselves into?

RANT: President’s Day?
Monday, February 19, 2007I can understand honoring Washington.
I could even understand MLK as America’s Gandhi.
I can’t understand Lincoln.
Never could. Got in trouble all thru school about Lincoln because of that belief. Fellow named Lorenzo wrote a great book about it.
I was accused of being a Southerner at heart. All thought it was funny to watch the good Brother turn red when referring to the “Civil War”, I’d call it “the Second American Revolution”, the “Southern Rebellion against Northern Tyranny”, or the “End of the American Experiment in Liberty”.
;-)
Great fun. I was always polite and respectful. Hence didn’t draw smacks, raps, beatings, or “punish lessons”.
It was even more fun when the topic of the Irish Rebellion, the Green versus the Orange, and England out of Ireland would come up in the current events discussion. Then, the good Brothers, being mostly Irish Catholics, were all too ready to look at it from the loser’s side. The oppressed side, The injured side.
Great fun. To inquire why this was different.
At least, all the state workers weren’t on the road to Trenton this morning.

FUN: How I’d change baseball!
Monday, February 19, 2007RE: Scuffing baseball could lead to 10-game suspension for non-pitchers – MLB – Yahoo! Sports
Why don’t they ever make the rules changes I propose. I’d change the extra inning rule that EITHER the team that scored the tying run wins (rewarding catching up) OR the team that scores the tying run loses (rewarding getting to that score first).
And, I’d figure out how to play the game without zebras!

RANT: You never find your last typo in that “perfect” resume
Monday, February 19, 2007There’s a programmer’s proverb that “You never find the last bug!”
But that’s no excuse to stop looking for it.
