Awards

So I am not a fan of "awards" that are given to actors or musicians that are voted on by a select few...in general, lobbyists infiltrate all avenues of money making people...Oscars, Emmys, VMAs, CMAs, etc... so when someone wins an award I wonder just who was behind the scene to help get that achievement accomplished...hey, I know that's cynical, but it is what it is...anyway, I do like the show that they produce...I am more interested in how the people look, act, and or sing...and, it is a barometer of how some think...it's like the Electoral College that puts the Prez in power...originally set up because the legislature types didn't trust the public...
Anyway...last night at the VMA's (or something like that) 19 year old Taylor Swift won for best female performer in a video...as she was giving her acceptance, up popped Kanye West, grabbed the mic from her hands and boasted that Beyonce should have won...just a total embarrassment for all involved, especially Ms. Swift....bad stuff...
Or did you see how Serena Williams responded to a line judge who called a foot fault on her?
NFL...outstanding performances from the Saint's Drew Brees, the Viks Adrian Peterson, and the 49ers...tonight...the Bolts at the Raiders...
The Padres won their 6th straight series and are climbing the ladder to respectability...
The heat is getting a respite...for 2 days...
Bolts 31-10...
