Bemusement

 Watching the fans storm the court after JMU upset UVa, I thought...somewhere, some ESPN personality is griping about the COVID risk.  Which, to be sure, is there, but...after a while, people want to live and do the things they did before -- go to concerts, storm the court, not have glasses fogged up -- and sports, if you think about it, are the easiest way to do so.  At the very least, they are a welcome distraction from the crap of life...and we should enjoy them in any way we can.

This amused the fuck out of me, mainly because 1) They could; 2) they used the weapons of the left against them; and 3) someone should have thought about sooner.  Of course, I don't think Twitter or anyone should be in the business of picking speech in the first place, but if you have stupid rules, people will take advantage of them.  

The Jussie Smollet trial has been fascinating to me, and funny as hell.  For the record, I think he is going to get off (at the trial), as the country that acquitted OJ... or, as we say, there are a lot of Democrats in Chicago and thus a lot of stupid people, and they will believe the BS.  Of course, if he is found guilty, do you really think any of the people who tweeted support for him are going to get called out for it?  No... that to me would be worth a TV special in and of itself!
