Public Relations

1: The purpose is to promote natural beauty amongst women, not artificial make up, plastic surgery beauty. 
2: Because being beautiful is such a big part of today's society.  It's refreshing to see commercials advertising natural beauty instead of artificial beauty.
3: I think it is worthy because one, it could probably help sell Dove products because they stand for something positive.  And two, the population will think that they will stand up to big businesses that promote artificial beauty.


1: They had a hard time stopping the leak, which isn't necessarily their fault, but it only helped expose the fact they were relatively bad at stopping oil leaks. 
2: Tony what's his face (The CEO) could've watched him comments and thought before he spoke.
3: When asked about the 11 people that were killed in the explosion, he said something like, "i want my life back" or something, which is a little heartless.  It's never a bad idea to speak your mind, but on national TV you should probably hold back, especially when you're under scrutiny.  

Twitter and the NFL

1- They implemented these rules because a lot of players use this method of communication with their fans. 
2-The rule effects players, coaches, anyone representing a player or coach, or team official.
3- The first player fined was Chad Ochocinco.  He was fined 25k (daaaaaaang)
4-Yeah, since he broke the same rule in the same way he should get fined the same way.  25k is a steep penalty, but the NFL could at least be consistent about it. 
5-I think it's fine, since they should be focused on the game.  The penalties are very steep, but it is a very simple rule to follow.

KANYE WEST

Everyone knows that Kanye West is a jerk.  He even knows it, which is evident in his new song "Runaway" (which is an awesome song by the way).  Kanye has been complaining of his lack of awards (which is ok because he deserves them) and stole the mic away from a very very hot country singer. 

I seriously don't care about what Kanye does i think he's the man.  He makes great music.  But we already did this blog.  So peaceeeeeeeeeee

Derek Jeter = Oscar nominee?

Derek Jeter tries to win by any means necessary, minus steroids.  He showed this in Wednesday's game versus the Rays.

Top of the Seventh, Yankees are down 2-1, Chad Qualls on the mound.  Qualls pitches inside and hits Jeter.

Or did he?

Replays show that the ball hit off the end of the bat, not Jeter's left arm.  Manager Joel Madden was ejected by the home plate umpire Lance Barksdale after arguing.  Regardless, Jeter took first and Curtis Granderson came up to bat.  Granderson went yard and brought the Yankees ahead 3-2.

The Rays would eventually come back, but controversy swirls around one of baseball's most loved players.  Jeter admitted to his acting skills after the game.  There's no doubt to me that there would be more uproar if the Yanks had won.


My view of Jeter has not changed.  To be honest, I've done similar shenanigans in my baseball games.  I didn't try to sell it though, I just went for first.  What's the umpire gonna do?

I know they're two totally different environments and scsenarios, but human error is a huge part of baseball, so let 'em make errors.

Calvin Johnson TD

Anyone close to football knows about the Calvin Johnson controversy that happened over the weekend.  Trailing 19-14, the lions drove down the field and went to their main receiver for the win.  Johnson made a great catch and fell to the ground.  Thinking the pass would be ruled complete, he let go of the ball as he hit the ground.  The ref ruled it incompletely, and rightfully so, Calvin freaked.  And the whole football world freaked.

I freaked.  Calvin's on my fantasy team.  I don't need those 6 points, but do i want them?  yes.  I think the NFL should go over protocol for common plays like that.
