PTI = stupid

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

Today on PTI, the Marquette vs. Mizzou game was discussed. More specifically, Hayward’s stepping on the boundary line while in-bounding the ball. During that discussion, a question asking whether or not Mizzou desevered to win the game was posed. The given answer: yes.

W. T. F.

They really think that Mizzou deserved to win that game?? Geez, they must be as blind as the ref’s. Blind because of all the obvious fouls that the viewers and commentators all saw:

1) Carroll pulling Jimmy Butler down by his jersey while he was going for a rebound
2) Carroll pushing Lazar Hayward with his elbow as he was going for a quick lay-up.
(just to name a few)

There is no way that Mizzou deserved to win that game. In my opinion, the only reason they won was because of Lazar’s mistake. The win was not deserved, nor were they entitled to it.

Recommendation: Scalaris for OS X

Are you obsessed with Twitter like me? I’ve found an AMAZING app for Mac OS X that is extremely lightweight, lives in your menu bar, displays tweets for those you are following as Growl notifications, and provides you with a simple pop-up window to @reply them, or tweet something new.

This amazing app is called Scalaris, and its available from http://uri.cat/software/Scalaris/ as freeware (donations encouraged). I highly, highly HIGHLY recommend it.
