Bad Mood

Sorry, I’m in a bad mood this morning. I should be in a better mood after such an outstanding weekend all around, but coming into work this morning and reading a few stories has really made me upset. For starters, this Kenny Rogers pine tar thing. The way the media is taking this and sensationalizing this entire thing is sickening. It’s a witch hunt. The media is creating stories once again and I hate it. It’s painfully obvious that something was there, the managers and umps and Kenny worked it out privately, and then he went out and threw 7 more shut out innings. If it was a bigger deal than that he would have been kicked out, or Tony La Russa would have made a scene. Trust me, he’s slightly anal about such things, even if his good buddy is across the way managing. This is the World Series remember. The stakes are high. The manager that wins this thing becomes elite by becoming only the second ever to win the World Series in both leagues (Sparky Anderson being the first).

Get on with it already!

Secondly, this Madonna adoption thing upsets me as well (I know, strange combo this morning). Seriously, are there no American babies that need adopting? Is it not sexy enough to look out your back door and help out? Would that not create enough media buzz to support your album?

OK. Enough venting. Time to make the most out of a very cold Monday morning. Hey look, Celeste brought muffins in. Yum!
