So was anyone really surprised to see speaker Sal indicted yesterday for corruption? I for one would love to see the job description for Speaker, Massachusetts House of Representatives. Does it say, Ensure House Runs Smoothly, Be House Counter to Governor's Power, Be Hopelessly and Blatantly Corrupt. To call Massachusetts politics a cesspool is to not even come close to the nature of the nature of the corruption at the fetid dump that passes for the Massachusetts State House. While we know there is a dire need for some type of reform we all saw how when this was attempted the legislature thought that the best way to improve ethics was to eliminate the ethics commission. I can't help but think of the child sticking their fingers in their ears saying loudly that they can't hear you and if they can't hear you it's not true!
The trial of Cuckoo Clark Rockefeller goes on and on. He's done a very good act of looking like he is crazy but the guy is just a sleazy operator who found not one, but two gullible women, who did exactly what he wanted. I don't know which one was more naive, the one who married him for his green card and who he left the day after, but then didn't divorce him until 10 years later, or the one who was making a million dollars a year while he wasn't working and let him manage the money. Is she still single???
Oh I heard a good story from a friend interviewing for a PR position. He met with a SVP who told him that their image was bad and they didn't have good relationships with their news media. When asked why he thought this was the SVP said that it probably had something to do with the fact they didn't tell the news media anything and communicated only via news release. But that was OK since that was how the news media want to communicate.
On more friendly front it is a good thing that with Dice K pitching the Sox have a deep bulletin. I mean the guy must have had two men on in each inning and got out of it each and every time. Big Papi is slowly wearing out what ever good will there was for him. I think the Sox need to put him on the DL and figure out what to do with him. Jason Bay continues to show he was more than just a throw in for Manny the Cheat. Add together Bay's stats subtract what Manny might have done over the same time and then add in the 20 homers and 75 RBI's you can add in when you take into account not having to deal with Manny's BS and you have what someone like Jason Bay who just does his job is worth.
The word is out that Rodney Harrison is going to retire. I will always remember in the Super Bowl against the Panthers when he broke his arm and did not come out for something like 3 plays. He was and is a warrior and helped the Pats win 2 Super Bowls. Appropo of nothing, some 93 year old guy crashed his car into the Wal Mart in Danvers, MA. I am amazed he was able to do it. I don't think that if you tried to do it you would be able to!
