Watching Twitter tonight has taught me one thing, Phillies fans are a bunch of whiny dicks. But it's ok, every tank needs a bottom feeder.

And I thought I wanted to hug Johan last week. I think I'm officially in love.

Really? A picture of a college athlete drunk constitutes a "scandal?" What's next? "Shocker! UCLA Quarterback sleeps naked!" "National disgrace: in the privacy of their locker room basketball team members caught uttering naughty words, like everyone else does all the time!" "Tragedy! The world mourns lost innocence-- young high-performance athletes under pressure act like human beings!" For goodness' sakes, someone fetch the smelling salts! Ladies and men alike are being overcome!
This kind of holier-than-thou sanctimonious gossip-mongering says far worse about the "news people" tattling about it and the audience consuming it than it does about the individuals in question. If liquor's so immoral in the public eye then where's the populist demand for another round of prohibition? Oh, it's not that big a deal? Then shut up about it. Stop gawking. Tend to your own house-- maybe start by taking your kids' cell phones away so they aren't featured in tomorrow's headline about jr. high school sexting-- instead of moralizing about what everyone else is doing. This is just modern puritanism run amok.
