He Scored a Soccer Ball

GregS sends this:

He says he'll keep his "eye on the ball" with respect to the war on terror, but every time they snap his picture, he's flinching from a ball.

Every time.

Kerry's about as comfortable with sports as a dog is with vacuum cleaners.

You do know what he is thinking dont you? " Ok now that I have that coal in my ass, if I sqeeze hard enough I can make a diamond." " Diamond....Diamond come on dammit sqeeze!!!"

When will this guy learn to stay away from sports-based photo ops?

Is there no one in this campaign who knows this?

I wouldn't mind reading some sort of serious analyzis on Kerry's seemingly desperate attempt to equate himself to Kennedy. He brags about the initials, he seems to affect the same general hairstyle, swift boats/PT boats, and not to mention these ridiculous ball throwing/catching photo-ops whenever and wherever he can, no matter how odd the circumstances. I mean, he is 60+ years old for crying out loud, why isn't anyone telling him that he isn't pulling it off? I just get Single White Female vibes off him in his apparent worship of JFK.

And another thing: This guy has been salivating for the presidency since he came back from the war. His attendance record in the Senate is nothing to brag about. Kerry had probably been planning these "spontaneous" football/soccer etc. games since he was was in dress whites. So I guess my question is, Why is he so damned bad at them? The man obviously missed his share of workdays for twenty something years and he never bothered to take a few of those afternoons off to practice catching the pigskin so he didn't look like a fool doing it?

Hey Ace,

I find the trees in the background very troubling. I wish I could remember where I saw it when I was trolling the web the other day but there was a report about a horrible tree disease that is epidemically spreading throughout the northern hemisphere and it is all due to the Bush administration's environmental policies. When a tree contracts the disease, its leaves turn all funky colors and then they fall off. It's horrible!!!!

I keep seeing these, as we all do. It gives me to wonder --

We all know the MSM are in the tank for Democrats; that is, the talking heads and pundits are. But there are a lot of other people in a news crew. Cameramen, in particular, are a blue-collar lot who tend to obsess about techie things and don't always have college degrees.

Are we seeing the evidence of a mute protest? Network Cameramen for Bush? It would sure explain the plethora of embarrassing or silly photos of Kerry and Edwards.

Regards,
Ric Locke

Update on Scott Adams:
Scott Adams had approval for this cancer drug but they hadn't scheduled him to get it. He was taking a turn for the worse. Trump had told him to call if he needed anything, so he did. Talked to Don Jr (who is in Africa) , then RFK Jr, then Dr Oz. Someone talked to Kaiser and he was scheduled. Shouldn't have needed it but he did and he says it saved his life.

Schmoll: 53% of New Jersey likely voters say their neighbors are voting for Ciattarelli, while 47% say the cheater/grifter Mikie Sherrill
The "who do you think your neighbors are voting for" question is designed to avoid the Shy Tory problem, wherein conservative people lie to schmollsters because they don't want to go on record with a likely left-winger telling them who they're really voting for. So instead the question is who do you think your neighbors are voting for, so people can talk about who they themselves support without actually having to admit it to a left-wing rando stranger recording their answers on the phone.

Interesting football history: How the forward pass was created in response to the nineteen -- 19! -- people killed playing football in 1905 alone
The original rules of football did not allow forward passes. The ball was primarily advanced by running, with blockers forming lines with interlocked arms and just smashing into the similarly-interlocked defensive lines. It was basically Greek hoplite spear formations but with a semi-spherical ball. As calls to ban the sport entirely grew, some looked for ways to de-emphasize mass charges as the primary means of advancing the ball, and some specifically championed allowing a passer to throw the ball forward.
