It’s A Good Thing

I’m not a Dodgers fan at all, but I’m glad they won the World Series. I sincerely hope they win every World Series from here until the economic system in baseball more closely resembles the other major sports leagues. As a fan of a smaller market team, I’m sincerely losing interest in the whole thing. Yes, the Pirates are mismanaged. But so what?

In football, you can build a dynasty in Kansas City. In basketball, fans in San Antonio and Milwaukee have a lot to be excited about. In hockey, you can build a dynasty in Edmonton. In baseball, even if a small market team like Florida or Kansas City wins it all, they have to burn it all down because they can’t afford their players anymore. So go Dodgers! The more people drift away from the game, the better.

No More Trailer Commercials

There have been some negative trends over the past few years, but all in all the worst has to be commercials for movie trailers. Spend a few bucks, buy a two minute spot and let us watch the trailer. I’ll go to one thing, the movie itself, or my computer to watch the trailer.

The True Inspiration for the New Dexter Series

We recently watched the first episode of Dexter: Original Sin. It’s a prequel to the original Dexter series, and we meet younger versions of a lot of the characters we knew from that show. I can’t help but think it feels a little like watching Muppet Babies.
