WTF??

Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant? Honestly, WHAT THE FUCK? Pregnant at Sixteen? Sometime, not too long ago, didn't we look down on girls who got themselves knocked up before they could drive? Shouldn't this girl be ashamed of herself, or at the very least concerned about her own image? I would ask where her parents are, but after last year and the bizzarre behaviour of her sister, we can only conclude that their influence is not far reaching. To realize that her crazy sister, who, without a doubt, has some sort of untreated post-partum depression is a better influence on young girls, is depressing. At least Britney was married. Yet, magazines, TV and the news are going to treat this like another celebrity pregnancy. Sometimes girls find themselves in precarious positions, but Jamie Lynn Spears being pregnant is unacceptable, there is no excuse for this, there is only disgust and disgrace.

Are the Patriots Republican's?

Watching the Patriots on national television is a lot like hearing about George Bush on the news. Despite their stellar records both are made to feel inferior. All season long it has been a constant barrage of negativity towards the best team in the NFL. Yet, like the late Rodney Dangerfiled, they get absolutely no respect. The Patriots, a team with a perfect record, are never credited with making the tough plays, the team that is losing is. The Patriots are not recognized for their talent, they are portrayed as borderline cheaters, when in reality they are neither mediocre, nor are they cheaters. What Jim Nantz, Phil Simms, Cris Collinsworth, Bob Costas, George Castanza, Malcolm Jamal Warner, Dan Marino and Dan Shula fail to admit to themselves, because of their huge egos, is that The New England Patriots are arguably the best team in the history of the NFL, and it scares the ever loving carb-free shit out of them. It also scares the shit out of every Patriot loving fan. Are they really this good? Can they be this good? Who should I thank for them being this good? I joked around with my husband after the third or fourth game of this season, telling him the Patriots were going to go undefeated, and we laughed. It's hard to laugh while holding your breath.
