RANDOM RANTS

...I never thought anybody could pull off the 8 gold medal trick like Mike Phelps. But as amazing as it was, think about this; It's all swimming! Why do they have races involving different strokes you can use to swim? Do we have races with people skipping, running backwards, or other ways to travel on land? Swimming competitions should be simplified down to trying to get from point A to point B the fastest way you can, no matter what stroke it is. The breast stroke? Backstroke? Butterfly? Come on. That's like Usain Bolt winning the gold in sprinting, crawling, and potato sack racing. Speaking of Bolt, that freak is the freakiest freak of all freaks.

...We recently took a trip to New York City to catch a couple baseball games before they close Yankee Stadium. I've never been there before and it seemed kind of surreal to me. I wasn't able to fully comprehend alot of stuff there, but we loved it. Here are a few quick observations of the place:
-people there are in alot better shape than they are here
-there are alot more young smokers
-it smells like poo

Ben, I had the opportunity to attend "The Game" last week aka (Anti Mormon Rally) and I agree Utes at best top 15. Same with the Cougs. Ute fans enjoy this year cause it's over. We will see if you last longer than your beer next year. Drunken pieces of work! Go Cougs 2009!!!!!
