It’s the biggest sporting event of the year.  You get in line, buy your ticket early, and get one of the coveted seats for the biggest game of a lifetime.  You fly to Dallas, walk into Jerry Jones’ massive new stadium, and head to your seats only to find out that you don’t have seats!  Some 1250 attendees at the Super Bowl were denied seats because the temporary chairs were not ready.

Granted, not all was bad news for the fans whose seats were not ready.  Of the 1250 fans displaced, only 400 of them weren’t able to be relocated to different seats.  Those that weren’t found seats are being offered triple the face value of the ticket, $800 per ticket, and were also allowed to watch the game from the standing room pavilions or on the world’s largest HD television inside the stadium itself.

Still, you pay all that money and fly across the country and you can’t even sit in the seat you paid for?  Triple the ticket price is the LEAST of what the Cowboys organization would owe me.  Talk about losing your cool; they’d probably have to take me away in handcuffs to get me to calm down if this happened to me!

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
